I know it's old but Afrexim bank has some criteria for their loan programme. I think they were just waiting for the mining license and the partnership / offtake to be in place. The article says "Allana receives green light". Not "Allana in negotiations ..." so hopefully we will hear news in the near future. Also don't forget that the ICL deal was first published in August 2013 (when it was just a rumor) and that turned out to be true. These things take time Jim. Bureaucracy at it's finest. :-)
