Biax is another brand name for a similar process to BIOX. Nst won't be trucking ore here.You'd have to be mad.
But NST is looking at installing a similar plant and would get running experience from here,for free.Plus of course a few ounces to boot starting at 50koz/yr.With extra tons thru the mill ,no doubt at a profit.
Wiluna's got its own ore,just missing out on getting it to the mill.
Big BILL can run a mine very efficiently,including paying staff and bills on time. There are financial synergies,in having a plant to play with,before paying to build one yourself.
The tax side,just means it would effectively cost them nothing,even if they shut it down as uneconomic in the end.
