	American Metal Market: Ok Tedi verdict due today; Papua New Guinea seeks copper phase; owners satisfied with gold mining (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-07-14)
		LOS ANGELES--A decision on expanding the Ok Tedi mine was due today as the government of Papua New Guinea continues to press for initiation of the copper phase, despite resistance by the project's private partners who are content to remain mining gold.
		The main point of contention in the government's proposals are its plan for a partial recapitalization by a reported transferring of part of the project's borrowings of about $800 million to shareholders' books and deferral of dividends to shareholders until the copper plant is built.
		Contrary to earlier wire reports that the Papua New Guinea government has offered to pay for the hydroelectric project, Carter said that the government instead wants to put up $10 million in equity and $30 million in loans toward the project's total estimated cost of between $130 million and $140 million.
