5% give or take 5%6 Oct 2021 13:48
So many posts, so little time.........
Everyone has made constructive inputs about this aspect of the farm in agreement.
Having researched it again, I think, we have the definitive answer (which captures everyone's inputs):
1. The Farm in Agreement was signed in March 2019.
2. The time line provided, was 6 years (March 2025 ) after which the agreement ceases.
3. The PFS has been pushed back from Stage 3 to Stage 4 (Nov 2020).
4. There is a 'qualifying period' (stage4) and an 'optional period'(post stage 4) for the 5%.
5. When $20m has been spent AND the PFS has been completed, the 'qualifying' period kicks in.
6. When ALL the staged (1-4) milestones have been completed, the 'option' to buy 5%...kicks in.
And now the "pièce de résistance"....the 2019 - 2025 Farm in agreement timeline is currently nearing the end of stage 4 and we are only 2.5 years into the 6 year deadline!
Breakneck progress. NCM wants this badly!

Bamps: The FS you talk about...this falls under a separate arrangement where NCM have 'loaned' GGP an additional $50m. Payable up to AND including the completion of the FS, Q2/22.
This is not associated with the Farm in Agreement, directly.
And as we all know...it is at this stage (publication of the FS) that GGP/NCM will sit down and discuss moving forward (or not as a JV) to build the Bulk Underground Mine BUM, for short!).
