Quite so Mr Bond,
The other forms tend to be *****y to the extreme!
Somnamna,
I think it was just an exchange of views on a topic that related to other issues that both held different opinions on, no offense was meant by either to the other party, that just have different views on this issue.
Cowichan deserves answers to his questions, although like Mr Bond I have great reservations about the amount of money already spent on exploration for what seems to be very little return either now or in the future.
Indeed the argument now seems in favour of concentrating on running things properly in Eygpt after recent changes to investment and development laws and offloading other resources in West Africa ideally for a reasonable price.
Martin Horgan has a bit of a task of restoring the operational capabilities of Sukari in order to become a flagship mine Sukari offering great potential, although instead it has narrowly avoided becoming unworkable, if Sukari went down then these other west African satellite reserves would be pretty meaningless as far as the share price was concerned, at present they are just money pits rather than money producers!
Sort out Sukari, that should be the priority for now, in my opinion.
Mr Bond I am sure it was not meant badly but part of your post came across as a personal insult to Cowichan.
I agee 100% that differences of opinion and debates are healthy.
You are both valued members of this board and for me it was sad to see.
Somnamna.
Apologise, for what ?
Differences in opinion, are normal and healthy.
I have not insulted nor used misleading information.
This is a BB ,read some other BBs, then you will see this one is gentlemanly and ladylike, in its tone.
Seconded
Cowichan, thanks for your informed and intelligent posts about Centamin and its prospects, they like any others relating to how Centamin and gold might move, and what might move them, are always appreciated.
You are a stalwart of this board am sure MrBond who seems a good sort if he took the time to reflect would be man enough to apologise for his crass posts.
Hi Sotolo,
Yes I agree Cowichan is a decent well meaning chap with great integrity who works tirelessly to keep everyone informed but then we are lucky enough to have a number of other members of a similar nature!

Word is that that Naguib still feels he hasn't been treated as fairly (or preferentially) as he should have been as an Egyptian in these concession awards.
Most likely Naguib will always feel hard done by though because he begrudges anyone else being seen as more important or successful than he may be.
As past events have shown the Egyptian press will usually print before doing any fact checking on the accuracy of the claims, even more so so if the claims are from someone like Sawiris, also mining magazines are no different to any other, they are desperate for paid commissions and dependant upon advertising revenue.
Past events have shown that although Naguib continues to make lots of money, he also haemorrhages it on some leas than prudent business decisions and investments in companies that are parasitical in their consumption of cash for very little in return other than lots of swish PR full of promises of riches in the future!
I am not disputing Mr Hall may be a a good ,even excellent geologist, but then so it was claimed was Mr Pardey, as we are aware that doesn't always guarantee they will make wise business decisions and being paid to produce feasibility studies is all very well, but as we are also aware these studies more often than not aren't guaranteed to result in a profitable or sustainable mine anytime soon!I
I just can't get exited about Sawiris or any of his projects!
'Bought in at the peak like an amateur? '
MrBond - why would you pretend to not know how long I've been holding?
Normally I'd expect a newcomer to hurl insults. Simply saying things to aggravate is shameful.
Carry on ranting Don.
Why are you so aggressively, responding.
Bought at the peak like an amateur.
And find it difficult to trade.
I sympathise, if so .
I do not give advise, as you seem to imply.
You filter me if you wish.
You are in a way, very bright.
But edit your posts.
It does not seem you like anyone disagreeing with you.
You are not always right, nor is anyone.
Start to question yourself more.
If that is possible ?
I certainly do not defend CEY BOD, I put myself in their position, a new CEO inheriting a total shambles.
End of conversation for now.
MrBond46
You wonder why I stay with Centamin? I seriously doubt you spend more than a second thinking about me - and more to the point - less time than that thinking about your responses to my posts. If you don't approve of my criticism of Centamin's lack of disclosure I have to ask why?
As far as me contradicting myself in point one and point two - also please explain? Is it really that difficult to comprehend my request to have a maiden reserve published for Napelepera & Wadaradoo?
I endure all your rants about nothing - please allow a serious concern to be aired without constantly rushing to defend Centamin's BOD's or reminding me my complaining will accomplish nothing or telling me I should invest here or there.
Filter my posts from now on because your rush to censure any concerns I raise is getting old.
If you are so enthusiastic buy END ,they are on LSE and Toronto from today. :-)
Problem being Sawiris , one minute suave ,next minute ruthless.
You going back years have been fiercely critical of CEY. Especially previos management, who in retrospect deserved it .
As you only post on CEY, I sometimes wonder why you have stayed so long.
From encouraging share buy backs to Batie West, you are unlikely to influence the BOD or many LTHs.
Your previous post in point.1
You want full disclosure of B/F.
Then seem to contradict yourself in point 2.
Complaining of publishing information.
Enjoy your CEY dividend tomorrow.
Good night, at least it is here ,with mozzis biting unfortunately.
Naguib Sawiris (La Mancha owns 35% of Altus) is making quick progress with his recently granted Egyptian concessions. Not a 'time waster' that man...
------>>>>
“We are delighted to welcome Amilha, David and Boubacar to the Altus team. The appointment of such high calibre individuals reflects our strong progress and growth trajectory, with numerous project and royalty activities underway across multiple jurisdictions..."
David Hall - Strategic Advisor (Egypt)

Mr Hall is the Chairman and co-founder of AIM and TSX-V listed Horizonte Minerals Plc and was the founder of Stratex International plc, an AIM listed company that discovered the Oksüt gold deposit, now in production with TSX listed Centerra Gold Inc. He has extensive experience in the Arabian Nubian Shield commencing in 1985 in Sudan and subsequently with Minex Minerals Egypt, when he was based in Cairo from 1986 to 1990.

My Thoughts:
Interestingly these projects are all classified as: Deal Partner: Available
suggesting Altus is wanting/willing to take on partners to develop these concessions.
Sawiris certainly understands the mining business is about taking on a certain amount of risk, those who are invested in Centamin and are satisfied with the pace of our BOD's development (or should I say lack of development) may want to consider the price of doing nothing can sometimes be more costly than embracing risk. This will become apparent as more companies take risks in Egypt.
