We begin to wrap up the Filo story with our ongoing guest in this subject, Koala. Lundin Mining and BHP acquired Filo Corp in a $4.5 billion deal, marking the end of a remarkable story. The deal involved cash payments to Filo shareholders and a joint venture between Lundin and BHP. The acquisition unlocks the potential of the Josemaria project and positions Lundin as a major copper company. The deal also highlights a shift in sentiment among mining majors towards investing in quality discoveries. The next tier one copper-gold asset is still uncertain, but prospects in Chile, Argentina, and other regions are being closely watched. Freeport's involvement in M&A deals remains uncertain due to financial considerations.
