I wish you could impress upon the 'knobs' (aka the Lundins) at CHL that political risk in Africa ain't as bad as it is portrayed. These dopes think that GB is on the brink of disaster again and are using it as the reason no major wants to invest in the phospate project w/ a feas report in hand. Now that said, the same manamgement threw how many millions into the DRC during the revolt/war! Now that is country risk and I also am 'stunned' to see the Economist applauding the DRC. Worth a poke to see what is up.

Not all the original Zambian assets of Anglo went back to Anglo. The Nkana mine, concentrator and cobalt plant in Kitwe went to Mopani which is a partnership between Glencore and First Quantum.
