Town Hall Meeting Webinar Transcript (As always many thanks to Dip)...Read into it as you wish....
Q: "Are you concerned about the possibility of another major moving in if Greatland doesn't act quickly to further consolidate the region? But the way you always talk about the mining industry, it's almost as if you're all friends rather than enemies, which is fascinating."
SD: "Yeah, look, I I do see it as a a collegial sector and yeah, I know most of the other gold, you know, CEOs and senior teams and I think we have a camaraderie and you know, we all want the sector to flourish. We want our people to flourish. We want it to be safe. We want it to be successful. - So, I think there is a camaraderie and we apply the same when working with junior companies in in the Paterson. So, you know, we're there to support and help. (Note recent shareholding in Aventine Resources - TT)
We have infrastructure. Um, you know, we want them to be successful because ultimately, we have our own interest in them being successful because we think that ore will come into our mill at some stage."
Q: "Their success becomes your success."
SD: "Exactly. In in terms of another major, look, it is elephant country. You've got Rio, Tinto up there in the north with the Winu asset, Telfer and Havieron, a collective, you know, plus 30 million ounce endowment, that is a big gold deposit by global standards. - You know, this is a huge endowment. So, it is elephant country. Having said that, to replicate the infrastructure we have in the Paterson, probably that mill alone would be north of $2 billion today. So, our incumbent advantage I think is significant."
