Ann: Rutila Alliance Agreement Presentation , page-2

In my opinion this is another example that shows what a difference it makes when a company has experienced management with a track record of "making this happening".

Despite all the negativity around Lynas, Nick Curtis achievements in establishing one of only two major Rare Earth companies outside of China in a very short time frame must not be forgotten.

Obviously Nick has a major stake in Rutila and will do everything to increase the value of that stake. (13% as per last annual report). If nothing else, this should be a good motivation for him to get things moving. And he has proven that he can get this done.
