Well you would think the Cu at Oyu Tolgoi would be far more important to Rio. Grade, geographical proximity, and mine life all better than Elliot or Swan.

The Mo, the Rh and the bone that Barrick chucked to Ivanhoe. Not to mention the recent gas connections, road upgrades and copper production cashflows
22 cents.
A spectacular deal for peanuts
