RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Nice Infouggg,
The difference between Sawiris and Barrick is that he is African (Egyptian) and has an intimate knowledge of African politics and politicians, due to his extensive business interests across the continent. He may be able to reach parts that a global multinational may not. ;0)
What I can be confident of is that he wouldn't want to do this deal if he didn't see it as in his interests. So far, those interests seem aligned with those of other Endeavour shareholders, so that gives me some comfort that if a deal is done, it will be beneficial to us.
Cheers,
Mark
