OK, it was just a thought.

All the same, the whole deal doesn't make sense. What is ISCOR doing in gold and in Papua New Guinea?! It is the strangeness of the whole thing and the coincidence that made me think of a hidden agenda.

If one of the many SA gold operations was involved then I would accept that gold was the primary motive. Or, if an Australian "any kind of mining company" was involved, I would expect that, being a neighbour, such an outfit would know the terrain.

What actually did Iscor buy for virtually R100,000,000? On an undeveloped island in the middle of nowhere!

Keep well.
