"Just eyeballing it Adriatic $adt.ax is what A$1bn market cap A$1.3bn enterprise value So call it US$1bn The koala thinks Graham Kerr and the South32 $S32.AX board should be asked why spending US$2 billion to build Hermosa Taylor is a better use of capital than putting a XX% premium in front of Paul Cronin using S32 paper or even using cash If we normalize this absurd zinc price assumption the EBITDA/FCF of Vares versus Taylor are in a similar zip code"

"No position in the eucalyptus tree but this recent initiation on Adriatic $adt.ax has a real zinger if you are a long suffering South32 $S32.ax shareholder or board member Considering Vares is BUILT the koala has to imagine every South32 shareholder wondering why FID Hermosa when XX% cash premium would probably get them Adriatic XX% premium would be a$6.20/sh Thats a$1.9bn or us$1.2bn Using Hermosa price deck NAV is A$7.80/sh 308mm shares So a$1.60 * XXX is a$500mm (us$350mm) of discount to NAV Or spend $2.1bn and multiple years (probably some construction capex inflation risk too) chasing"

"Probably just feeling the urge to trade in the eucalyptus tree but the Koala has bought some Ivanhoe Mines $IVN.TO for first time in a long time It's well socialized the 2026/27 guide is coming but more then that what else can you buy of large cap size that's pure play Teck = QB2 risk + deal First Quantum = Panama Lundin (own it) = Vicuna (if QB2 burned you do you go back to the high Andes) Freeport = monitoring Grasberg situation If the guide clean it becomes natural hiding spot for copper bulls Also bought one other copper name"

"The shortsightedness to even think there is going to be capacity offered to anyone besides B2Gold or a different strategic (who maybe just drives B2Gold to pay a material premium) is wild here What happens if stock at C$1.30 right now C$14MM at C$2/sh is X% on a fully diluted basis Where does the stock open next morning"

"So Teck guidance lets talk about it Set aside the 100kt d/g at QB2 in 2026 and $500mm of TSF capex The fact the high end of QB2 guidance in 2028 is 250kt and doesnt start with a X is incredible when you zoom out a bit Construction started in 2019 so XX yrs later still wont have come close to one single year of the original 316ktpa first X yrs production guidance Mining is hard"

"If BHP is smart theyll bury the costs of converting all this RMB back into USD in the finance costs on the income statement alongside interest expense & FX so EBITDA isnt impacted But we will know we will all know its really a new royalty But it would elevate how savy and smart the koala views BHP for trying to hide it"

"So we need to talk about Sigma Lithium $SGML The change of mining contractor mentioned in the news release earlier this week is because Sigma stopped paying them And the co-founder (Ana ex-husband) says the company has high graded/picked the eyes out of the open pit so its basically sterilized (screen shot below) The balance sheet had only $15mm cash at June end the contractors arent getting paid so who knows how this is going to go. Market has been waiting for this offtake pre-pay to resolve the balance sheet Perhaps this offtake pre-pay is the m&a process of 2023 all over again its not"

"A few scattered thoughts on Barrick $B right now TLDR is Barrick Copper - First Quantum $FM.TO should merge 1) Reko Diq was Mark's baby unclear what the driving motivation will be to keep pushing great project but "unique" zip code 2) The copper business can go / non-core Who is brilliant at both building project and operates in Zambia 1/n"

"So the koala been preoccupied with existing positions & Beaver Creek but one thought keep coming back to on Anglo Teck $AAL.L $TECK Why not just do a QB2 - Collahuasi joint venture If an Anglo shareholder.got to be asking that question Because koala view the only reason stocks traded up post announcement is $XXX billion of QB2-Collahuasi EBITDA synergies capitalized at 7-8x Gary at Glencore $GLEN.L has to be licking his chops as a commodities trader 1/n"
