There's lots of other things that Barrick can do. For example, it is in better position, than Newmont, to get control of the property as it can propose financing for development to earn a greater interest. Let's not forget that Barrick didn't buy 40% of ARP. Its interest in the property may not dilutable unless they don't contribute beyond the $7.3 million. We don't know the details of what happens if the JV partners don't contirbute pro-rata. Plus you can bet Barrick has an RFR on any and all of ARP's interest. The original deal in Sept 1994 called for the expenditure of US$7.3 million over 5 years. At that date the JV has to present a feasibility study to IPEEM. Expenditures were to be 60% ARP and 40% Barrick. The property is subject to a 1% NSR and a 5% Net Benefits Royalty, whatever that is. Newmont's strategy may be flawed.
