Before Christmas, Alexander Mining (AXM), AIM-quoted South America-focused copper and gold play-turned ore treatment innovator, could well know whether it has pulled off a deal with a £1 billion mining group to commercialise proprietary technology which, it claims, could transform the economics of mining zinc, cobalt, copper and other minerals.
