Stack. It's about 6 in the morning there. Have you got obsessive behaviour issues.
Let people have there marmite on toast in peace.
Nobody gaf.
She's been dead for years.
Slug, these little anecdotes are charming, but the data clearly shows that the UK's position in a list of countries by GDP dropped during Thatcher's time in office as PM. You chose the metric as a means to highlight her economic stewardship. You got caught lying, and your 'loadsa money' stories can't change that. Please, look again at the simple data I've posted to prove you wrong. If there's any part of it you don't understand, just ask. Otherwise, stop embarrassing yourself and wasting everyone here's time.
Forget the usual suspects...this mine will be bought by a US company. Geopolitically the US is on the rise in LATAM. Millei, Lula, Boularte, Noboa and Petro are all aligned. With the Chancay port in Peru, Biden needs to poke a finger in the eye of the Chinese.
Of course price always wins but I expect a security alignment with Ecuador where the DEA are invited back in. This weekends raids were the start. That intelligence was an offering.
Hard to believe that the kidnap of the British Consul in Guayaquil is not linked to the Guyana oil conflict (albeit verbal so far). Remember Venezuela is an ally of Cuba and Russia. CIA are all over Peru and Ecuador so let's pick on a Commonwealth state and draw the UK in.
Whatever the state of play, US influence is on the rise, especially in Ecuador and a US play for our asset cannot be ignored.
GLA
This is US vs China full stop IMHO. 2024 is our year🙂
1984. You've got more to offer this board, than to spend time arguing with muppets.
The only thing stack high is high on is the list of muppets.
Don't become another novice or quady.
Absolutely correct smickster.
Still not plain sailing as adikt and co would have us believe.
At least some of the more sober posters are now responding to the whole interview, not just the jam tomorrow.
We did rise to third in the eighties. I will find the data for you.
Anyone who thinks we went down under thatcher is a sandwich short of a picnic. Never was there a time where people with skills, ambition and drive could make so much money in recent times.
Anybody who works for more than mere survival these days is just propping up an ever ballooning pool of unskilled immigrants and dossers.
I was too young to benefit from thatchers eighties. I doubt such a chance will ever come our way again
Drake , you are very boring , fed up reading the same lines from you for the past 6 weeks. Looking forward to the fresh narrative one the agm is over , and Scott is still in.
Just one more week of your inane drivel.
Smickster, good job that SOLG have great metals mix/basket to offer as a pure copper play carries more risk for obvious reasons. Alpala's mix of PM's is a smelters dream. SOLG is not a pure copper play at all.
That's what makes it very very attractive. Never any doubts about the asset... which begs the question over the tools trying to sell it. Like I said... in simple terms... just stick it on ebay and watch them scrample to buy it. For some reason out BoD's seem reluctant to roll the dice but bet ya that when 157m shares find a new home, they'll move like Jagger.
We went down under Thatcher. That's the point. You claimed we rose to third. The data shows we dropped. What's happened since isn't part of the stupidity of yours that I'm exposing. You said the proof of the pudding was our GDP success.
You lost the argument. Again.
Good outlook for copper but he says it has to hit and stay at $15,000 tonne for a sustained period before anyone will build a new major mine in ANYWHERE.
It could have been Italy yes, it was definitely west Germany
I’ll find the data this week for you.
Your analogy is stupid. I said we were third at one point under thatcher not that we ended up third now. We will only go down now because of the dilutive effects of massive nanny state and unsustainable immigration
I’d be amazed if we’re top 10 by 2050
Also, it was Italy we were trading places with, not France.
So your point that 'the proof of the pudding ' was based on you recalling the UK being the third largest economy by GDP for one quarter during Thatcher's time as PM? And the fact that we dropped down the international GDP standings throughout her time in office is.... Inconsequential? It's that one quarter that matters?! And the rest is to be ignored.
You must me hilarious at the footy. "Doesn't matter that we lost 5-1, for 7 minutes in the first half we were only 2-1 down!"
MoM or QoQ data will show it, it was post 86 I think

Here's the annual breakdown. Find the year during Thatcher's time as PM where the UK is 3rd. Clue: you won't.
It's not about your memory, slug. It's about facts. You got caught lying, as you have done about multiple other topics. It's just this one is not in the least subjective: you can easily be shown up.
The nutty eco warriors are going to have to choose their poison.
Give up on electrifying everything that moves, or accept that to do so means mining copper and other elements regardless of their “green credentials”
At some point economics have kick in. It is then that this nutty rubbish will get kicked into the long grass for good
You posted data five years apart and expected people not to notice
Of course most won’t, they are thick. That’s how the government got away with its covid propaganda
Sharp graphs warning of rampant 50% explosions in deaths. Yes…from 2 last week to 3 this
Easy to fool idiots with statistics even when you can claim they are true. Data exists and if you look closely enough you’ll find it. For at least one quarter in the mid eighties the U.K. surpassed west Germany and France to take third place behind Japan.
I recall it vividly. That it is isn’t on sites like Wiki which are demonstrably inaccurate and maintained for free by wokes is irrelevant.

Good outlook for copper but he says it has to hit and stay at $15,000 tonne for a sustained period before anyone will build a new major mine in Latin America.
Also states the new major mines cost anything between 5-20 Billion to build and that mines have to prove their green credentials themselves. You can’t mine copper for the green economy by burning coal.
Hey Tex wow …… must be a dangerous place.
How many people do you think get shot in the USA each year (you should know) amazing anyone goes there to do business
Apparently over 600 mass shootings in 2022 alone ….. you should be ashamed
"She was. The proof was in the pudding, the U.K. was under her stewardship the third largest GDP in the world."
"I said briefly"
More lies and bs from slug. You didn't say briefly- the quote is there for all to see. GDP data was from IMF, World Bank, and United Nations. Do you have data to back up your claim? Is it from a more reputable source than these 3?
Honestly, champ, you need to admit you've been outwitted again. It's embarrassing. You tried the 'I am good at science and have a good right hook' line, but it didn't fix the fact you'd been shown as a liar.
Https://www.reuters.com/world/british-businessman-kidnapped-ecuador-local-media-2023-12-16/
You posted something with five yearly results you utter fkuwit
I said briefly
And it wasn’t in 1980, 1985 or 1990 as per your “wiki” link (another woke infested site not a factual site)
Why invest then colonel, oh wait a minute.
Is it because we have a tier 1 asset worth billions.
No one is here because of our boards performance and our board want this gone too.
So your either on board or your supporting bhp.
No answer RE: your claim about GDP, slug? Ready to admit you were lying?
I don't love having quady wade in on me making you look silly- I would hate for your mistake to be lost in a long thread. Like when you used to say vile things about black people to get your stupid comments about "temperature isn't actually a measure of anything" deleted... Don't think we didn't notice your tactic there. Worth losing an account to save face, apparently.
Give the Samaritans a ring colonel
No, read points 1 to 10. I left off Scott's woeful website update as didn't want to be accused of being too hard on him.
