We got its new undertakings and we were able to secure at least 300 jobs through that one undertaking alone.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1273490\" data-originallang=\"en\">Another undertaking to pursue research and development could lead to more jobs. Given the terrible state of mining in the world, it is responsible for us to have that discussion with Xstrata and to come to these conclusions. </p>",

Nous avons obtenu un nouvel engagement de sa part, qui pr\u00e9voit la protection d'au moins 300 emplois.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1273490\" data-originallang=\"en\">Un autre engagement, qui concerne les activit\u00e9s de recherche et de d\u00e9veloppement, pourrait entra\u00eener la cr\u00e9ation d'emplois suppl\u00e9mentaires. Compte tenu de l'\u00e9tat d\u00e9sastreux de l'industrie mini\u00e8re dans le monde, nous agissons de fa\u00e7on responsable en discutant avec Xstrata et en r\u00e9ussissant \u00e0 conclure un accord.</p>"
