Both projects are worth millions to RGM. Management have the option of increasing its stake from 10% in Oracle to 20% when it lists on AIM. Nickel is mainly used for with steel and chrome to make stainless steel. Demand will increase for stainless steel with a more affluent eastern consumer. The Nickel industry is…
