A lot of discussions/debate have taken place over night and I’m sure some of those guys will be along to chip in their thoughts. But this a post from HC and sums it up well.
— The more I think about this deal the more I think MTR have done very very well. The deal is just for the T3 project and not the surrounding T3 dome. MTR still maintain their 30% ownership of T3dome, T20, T4etc - in fact, by virtue of their 20% ownership of MOD now they will own a further 14% of these assets (20% x 70%) - giving them effective 44% ownership of these exploration assets (and they pick up a share of T1 and MODs cash balance)....
I think they know there’s much more value to come from these exploration tenements and giving away some of T3 for higher ownership of these tenements is a smart play.—
OK the figures may not be100% as MTR cannot go above 12.5%. What this does also allow is MTR to monetise some value early by selling a chunk and then replenishing its MOD holding via the options. There is also 2% royalty. Good deal by MTR IMO. Look forward to seeing the MTR RNS and MMs views on this. ATB.
