traydor, the advantage would be that if they would raise a large chunk of money on back of proven phase 1 production that the larger amount of shares you (in this case they) hold, the larger bang you get in the conversion of same shares as its could attract a premium in a new listing with proven production. Ofcourse they would need to change their reporting and accounting practises, there is no reason to believe that cant be done with so little care shown on the ASX.
It would look pretty attractive if a new listing suddenly appeared with a new name tag, all up and running with proven production, off-take agreements and a fully lincensed expansion program.
money close to home mkt has shown those premiums being paid here on last raisings is available, its just that aussie investors would it as throwing good money after bad as we stand today.
ofcourse it could all be a scam but I doubt it is.
