As shareholders we can huff and puff as much as we like but it is not until the MARKET starts believing CB that the share price will move, again applies across all CB companies.
HZ you are saying it’s acceptable or understandable to completely mislead shareholders (apart from insiders of course) in order to prop up the share price for whatever the reason? There’s a word for that and if he did it in the USA rather than on AIM the consequences could have been a lot more unpleasant.
I think we need to reset and look at where all the assets are now and what stage. Costs v Productoin (Delivery) over time.
CB said what he has and its served his purpose (goal of placing at the time maybe or flexed his muscles to AA)
Time to deliver now.
"although one can loosely compare it to a weather forecast in that it is based on assumptions that are made at any given time. Once there is a change in the meteorological/ geological picture in this case, then the longer term forecast changes"
Sorry dont agree with that analogy. That gives CB far too much of a "get out"
using that same but better analogy, it would be like the met office giving a forecast of very hot and sunny in January, then saying we've changed our view as its now -5 degrees outside and snowing !
It was never going to be hot and sunny in January !
Quite sobering listening to that again. Turned out to be nearly all complete rubbish- BR anywhere between 1.8 and 2.6 million tons lol
He wasn’t giving hopeful projections- he was adamant about the scale and the timescale.
He also misrepresents the manica share as 23%of the gold produced, which was clear even then wasn’t the case. And gave fuel to certain Ma niacs.
And eureka ! About to monetise then just disappears.
I’m not sure why he’s surprised when the market ignores his recent puffs for the AFP and GLR assets.
Agree wholeheartedly with you Matty, although I am of the view that your comment should apply to ALL CB's companies!
I do tend to agree Jezzoo, although one can loosely compare it to a weather forecast in that it is based on assumptions that are made at any given time. Once there is a change in the meteorological/ geological picture in this case, then the longer term forecast changes. CB has really pushed the boundaries of what is morally right considering our money is at stake.
What folk need to consider is without any hard hitting promo to get the share price rallied into the 5-6p range the £10m+ fund raises would have killed the market cap with massive dilutive effect even at 2p. So with Fairbride commissioning and ramp up taking as long as it did, he couldn’t risk a collapse in share price if a further raise was needed at that time so the over optimism and exaggerated statements needed to continue up to the resource statements being released.
I think the majority is going the RNS route now Matty, hence the total lack of them.
Howezap I appreciate you playing devils advocate but he shouldn’t have said all those things if they weren’t likely to happen even if he did cover his a rse, those roasts aren’t designed to be picked apart analytically they are straight forward PR vehicles that should contain useful information not misleading information that may an did cause people to invest, me included.
"you can't believe a word he says."
I believed him when he said he'd had a 30k pay rise.
Just on the subject of BR.
Valid question from Kevin on subject of 2mt and DtM- “When do you start the conversation with Anglo?”
Colins answer- “When that goal is achieved.”
Hate to keep playing the devils advocate, but someone has to! He covers himself with this answer quite clearly. Of course he is using plenty of artistic license that is at his disposal to plug the project setting targets for talks, but they are just targets. They are not a statement of intent or a promise.
On production, all the info is in public domain from DFS to mmp agreement to understand potential revenues.
Agree though, should not be taking promotional podcasts seriously without first fully understanding the company financial position and the status of the assets from company website and official news releases, and certainly not as a substitute for proper research in continually evaluating an investment.
That was an excellent interview and worth a listen to again, as it clearly shows the utter BS he talked at the time.
Predictions for FB, Eureka and BR. All completely way out and not even close.
"Target date for 2mt or DTm end of April but if we miss it it wont be quarters just a couple of months"
He must have known at the time that a lot of what he was saying (about all the projects) was utter BS, and not just overly optimistic.
You can't believe a word he says.
How much of this has still to land?

I am just waiting for the important news of Mrs HZ trip to Las Vegas. Hopefully she did a side trip to Nevada to check outs GLRs acreage at Ferber.
I might have to switch her back on, judging by the amount of green boxes it’s Manic Ma this weekend

Lucky - l hope it turns out to be your greatest success given l have a fair few. But more importantly spreading risk makes sense. One might hit the jackpot, we live in hope.
Not ment as a cross ramp but I've just invested some in GLR. Reason being, it's like a replay of xtract. I'm expecting a pump there. He's reported the first hole of many. So I imagine he won't go mad like he did with xtract lol, but if they start getting daily RNS's, dive in!!
Just remembered to exit this time!
Travelling today to the Algarve so just checked in here whilst reclining with a vodka and tonic.
Judging by the posts Ma Twinklebaker is getting more “out there “ than ever before. Lots of green boxes interspersed with puzzled replies.
What what wINk
Coppers down, going into a recession soon. Can't see BR being sold for some time. Lucky we have dani to entertain us!
