It is good that CF is going to promote our stock but the whole thing seems like deja-vu mixed with a head full of questions.
Everyday my Google news feed pumps out articles about looming copper shortages and interviews with CEO's concerned about supply deficits. Now we are going to pay to let the world know we have metals? Can they not just contact these people in the new feed articles?
Perhaps CF reads them but are not connecting the dots. A bell needs to go off when there is something pertaing to us. IAs an example

Asked if the difficulties in building new mines make buying assets more attractive, he said acquisitions aren’t part of Freeport’s fundamental strategy, although if opportunities arose they would be considered.(ding)
While the focus is on expanding existing mines, “if there was an opportunity that came about where we could create value for shareholders, we are in a position to be able to execute on that,” he said.(ding)
