Such has been the case ever since Richard's options at NOT closed in on us all. The way to success will no longer be characterized by harmony, and who needs it ? Not NOT since likelihood for multiple Ni discoveries is alive and kicking. The Chrome alone will never make it due to the relative small size of world Chrome market in an already oversupply situation. This is not to be taken as the offense some may read in it, FWR for one should be very capable to find more than Chrome alone, they would probably require more funding than just Cliffs latest injection, and so does the rest of the ROF. It is not about games of gamemastership from Hamilton, it is sheer fact and I am happy that NOT has stated at least their substantiated vision on this one. No need to be offended for any of the other players, the market already knows, look at SP (both FWR and NOT tanking at lower levels this very morning).
It's all about marketshare in the Chrome domaine and market size if you like. Strategic Chrome resources in NA will be welcomed if, and only if, market requirements are fully compliable, Mr. Hamilton has shown both expertise and guts to bring out to Retail. The pro's are in the know already for some time though.
