Lack of substance and details - PRIs this a green-washing exercise for Rio Tinto? This press release provides little to no information about what each party is bringing to the table. Is fortune supplying proprietary refining and processing technology? Are they supplying cash? It makes no sense for RT to provide the cash, testing centre, etc. and share the data and optimizations with another company.
Is Fortune providing stock / warrants in lieu of financing?? It would be nice to have a picture of what the financial arrangements are going to be.
Also, the press release references testing being done at "Fortune's planned Alberta Refinery". In what universe is that refinery going to be operational in the next 5 years??
"Under a Memorandum of Understanding signed between the companies, testing will be done at Rio Tinto Kennecott’s integrated copper mining and smelting operations in Utah and at Fortune’s planned Alberta Refinery"
