Palermo is noone hes's jsut a figurehead...suggest looking at who is really behind this company (not Hills only)...particularly one of the filipinos (and which family he is from, i will say no more).
Mining lease wont be a problem...check the history of similar deposits, very quick regulatory approvals.
Sabre, woof woof woof you reckon...ok we'll see. Maybe time to check your charts.
