"If and when our mining equipment is actually sold, then I'll admit I must be wrong, but until that time, this is all a planned strategy. Another reason why you probably won't see a PR outlining this plan."

Gee, they wouldn't dare screw around with this JV and risk pissing off the Chinese would they. Especially since they had very high level approval for it to begin with, I mean like before they even started pursuing it in earnest. Lovely strategy.
