This seems to be about conflicting analyses of how much metal is in containers not inflated expectations of tax receipts
I think its about specific conflicting analyses, and wider inflated expectations about trade misinvoicng / hidden margins in commodities

And maybe underlying that is the issue of understanding how the business/industry operates. So areas like "waste" are important.

Specific conflict relates to mineral valuation, but based on an expectation that Acacia is underreporting to avoid tax.

So govt committee is deliberately inflating mineral value because others (i.e. NGO campaigns etc) have inflated their expectations?
