RE:RE:More readable version...I think that is why DRC are coming to the realization that they have given away a lot of their natural resources away for next to nothing - and they want to renegotiate. I don't think it's unreasonable. It's a solvable problem. DRC wants to attract investment but walk a fine line between pulling another First Quantum and being tough negotiators (especially in an election season). It's also why I think Friedland and co will concede - because they knew the 5% free interest was next to nothing when they acquired the rights and perhaps would have been willing to give away 15% for free anyway (which is why I think they offered it back in the day before the Kamoa discovery). Friedland will not want this to drag on for long. He knows he's taking way more risk if he waits till after the elections where uncertainty goes through the roof.... Again - all in the course of negotiation - this matter will be resolved in due time.
