And why not...Like Ed I'm in to the end or at least to the end of the beginning, then I'll think about it. I'm not in and out like a fiddler's elbow as you are. :-)
Still laughing Suzy?
Thanks for the tip Geo, much appreciated. I'll take a look at it, but all of my money is unfortunately tied up here, so it would mean selling. I couldn't do that after such a time invested, if only because it has become a mental battle which I'm determined not to lose. You are right though, I am very unhappy with how this has gone, and really, how it has been allowed to drift into this situation.
Anyway, good luck with your investments, here, there and everywhere.
Cheers Geo.
Yes Suzy, all are worth holding. Condor and Falcon have Government approval which counts for a lot. I'm pleased you have remembered about Condor - it hasn't flown yet. Market cap is £25m. Value of the gold in the ground $8bn based on prospective 5 million ounces. They are struggling to raise the finance to build the mine, but they are ripe for takeover. I'm not trying to persuade anyone, just directing people to other interesting situations to relieve the Beowulf boredom. Especially Eric as he seems quite unhappy.
Geovanno....Like the flight of the Condor? Lol

I think you might need more diversity in your investment strategy. Now is the time to invest in Falcon oil & Gas (FOG). I am confident that will make you happy over the next two years. I expect at least a ten fold rise. Go and read the FOG presentation and check out what Frank Calabria (CEO of Origin Energy) has been saying this week and start reading the LSE bulletin board. Currently 12.7p.
We knew the risks here with BEM. We have been reminded weekly by Lbjj.
Sooz. You mentioned a most important thing there. No, you did, honestly. Lol. The Government still doesn't respond with any specific reason for the delay,. Well, perhaps this is because it simply hasn't got one that would be credible. In the absence of a specific reason, which could then at least be offered as an excuse, it's surely best to say nothing, which is what has been occurring (aside from Baylan being forced, by Kurt's whiff of legal, into the latest response), in an effort to avoid spotlighting the Government's disgraceful and shameful treatment of our Company.
Sooz, you probably won't agree with this, but if we reach our seventh full year of waiting, and it isn't far off, without having heard anything further from Baylan or Stef, then I feel Kurt could use that particular milestone in time lapse to write again to Baylan and give him an ultimatum. A time by which the decision must be given, or we will be left with no option, in spite of how accommodating we've been, to begin legal proceedings.
It does appear that an ultimatum is required Sooz, unbelievably it's necessary, and if our application legally merits the concession award, which it apparently does, then it shouldn't hold any weight that the Sami, although they obviously may not be happy with the idea of us pushing for a decision, will then attempt to pull out their "bias" trump card. After seven years of lost progress for us, and a financial black hole because of it, due to the absolutely inept performance of the Government(s) in our case, certainly nobody can point to this process as being biased in our favour. Far from it.
The decision is overdue by six years, so let's have it. Let's not sit back, or we know what might happen. Nothing.
Only my thoughts, and I do admit, I also want to see the Swedes taken to task over their incompetent handling of our case, even when a decision is finally given. It won't do, in my opinion, for them just to give a positive decision after all this time, then all is forgiven. I believe we undoubtedly merit compensation for the unnecessary damage inflicted upon us over these years of waiting.
This is business.

Speed isn't the problem is it? Nobody could doubt that our application is long overdue, the government have admitted as much, even years ago...but they still don't respond with any reason for it.
Faster....faster than the 9-12 months cited as typical in the Mineral Strategy document? With 6.5 years under our belt,and having fulfilled all legal requirements, we doubt they are capable of making it at all...it isn't just slow, it's unfathomable.

The government wants to simplify the mining of special metals
CLIPS WEDNESDAY 19/2 AT 21:14

Following the news reporting on the lack of metals needed for electric cars and solar cells, Business Minister Ibrahim Baylan now signals that the government wants it to be faster and easier to open mines in Sweden.
ooh...if only there was some way to do it?
