Well, first, it isn't a mine.  It's a bunch of land, but there may be a mine there someday.  That isn't to say there couldn't be an article, we have a few about properties in that stage of development, an this is certainly a notable case.  I am interested about the mention of Phelps Dodge bidding, since they don't exist anymore, might be why they lost ;) that is one place that I would not want to do buisness, I have delt with Chinese state owned mining companies before (not that one), it can be ""interesting"".
