FKC “The main information missing from the debate is the identity of the vendor. Strange it has still not been disclosed despite the fact that the contract has been signed? What have KAV to gain from holding back on such basic details? It only adds to the suspicion that they are not open honest and transparent. It also leads to pointless speculation as we are now seeing.”
Serious question: have you tried asking the company / Ben who the vendor is? I’m pretty sure if I asked him he’d just tell me…
Have a great weekend -F79 / Ben / Matthew or whoever you may be. Not too many legal highs for you this weekend I hope? As you have not given any evidence to support your claim of a dressing down / libel I will just have to conclude that you are an out and out liar.
ATB!
🤣
Oh the irony.
Night
You have a great weekend to F79 / Matthew / Ben. Maybe we will see a week where you are not engaging in pointless petty arguments with random people on bulletin boards but I guess the chances of that are pretty much zero. Much like your analytical ability. ATB!
You really don't like the shoe on the other foot do you.
Anyway, I'd love to spend more time chatting with you. You seem like you'd be a fun guy to spend time with.
Sadly I've got sandwiches to make.
Have a lovely weekend Fiaz.
Atb
F79 / Matthew / Ben - I have absolutely no idea what you are on about which is why I am asking you to expand on your own statement that I have been given a dressing down for sharing libel about you / Ben?
Who have I been given a dressing down by? What is the supposed libel? These are quite serious allegations to be making on a public forum. Of course hiding behind an anonymous ID you no doubt feel like you can write all sorts of nonsense as you very often do and it will not matter. Continue living in your dream fantasy Alice in Wonderland world of KAV investing where the sky is forever blue and tomorrow you will be feasting on that glorious jam sandwich.
🤣 don't be so sensitive Fiaz.
You know exactly what I'm talking about.
I'm big enough to take the heat. I've broad shoulders.
Almost everyone posts from a pseudonym.
Have a good weekend of hating..
Ciao
‘Given a dressing down for sharing libel about Ben’? That’s quite a statement - Especially from someone who posts behind a hidden anonymous identity and is sensitive to the slightest hint of criticism. Care to expand? Unlike you I don’t hide and throw slurs at others. You really do need some serious help F79 / Matthew / Ben or whoever you may in fact be.
Yeah, sorry forgot having any positivity means I must be in love with Ben, or be Ben. I'll grab my pom poms.
Still, its better to be authentic and have confidence in the company I'm invested in I guess, than not.
I'd understand your annoyance at me not hating everything here if I was ramping it. I've shared positive and negative views about KAV.
Although I'm probably talking to the wrong person about that. Given you were recently given a dressing down for sharing libel about Ben.
It's okay though, I'm just a sensitive cheerleader 😜
Yes F79. That same old chestnut!
Depends on if you come from a place of lack of trust to start with.
But then if I did have distrust I'd care even less about the project, as I wouldn't be invested.
The main information missing from the debate is the identity of the vendor. Strange it has still not been disclosed despite the fact that the contract has been signed? What have KAV to gain from holding back on such basic details? It only adds to the suspicion that they are not open honest and transparent. It also leads to pointless speculation as we are now seeing.
That was the point being made FKC.
Which is why I was curious to clarify with the person who made the statement exactly what they'd (Chinese) had done on 'this' (Nara) project. I couldn't find anything specific and wondered what they could share.
It turned out they then said it was an opinion.
Nothing wrong in contrary opinion of course, just not dressed as facts.
Everyone knows their are horror stories and geographical risk in Zim. Albeit it seems to not be quite like it was, we'll have to wait and see what comes next.
Nara is a side project for me ATM. Anything positive will be a bonus. Thankfully KAV didn't commit wild cash at the option and ultimately they can walk away after the exploration commitment if desired/needed.
I'll pay more attention to it after more news and if the option is exercised.
Atb
And I think the response is that that point only has any validity if it turns out “the Chinese” have recently attempted to make a go of the Nara project. That is the information missing from this debate
I thought the point being made was that if the Chinese could not make a go of it despite their ruthlessness what makes us think KAV can do any better?
Good job we're not a Chinese company then.
Some Chinese company or companies have treated people poorly when mining gold in the same district. Presumably the problem was the companies involved, rather than the area itself?
A generic search of “Matabeleland gold mines Chinese” brings up an assortment of horror stories including forced evictions and cold blooded murder. Really does look like the “Wild West” out there.
Yawn Swakop, that is all.
Which historical mines is KAV looking at?
If the "literally making stuff up" is reference to my eariler post, sharing my genuine opinion based on knowledge, about the involvment of Chinese in Zims Au projects, and my refusal to reveal detail and sources etc., then please retract.
Because I have a 4-decades long association with the country and many of the Au mining projects, plus lots of Zimbo pals who are able to speak when asked, doesn't mean I need to spill all my beans on a message board seemingly stuffed with rampers who appear to celebrate the classic pump and dump we just witnessed...
Of course you could have been speaking about someone else, in which case fair enough.
GLTAH, will keep an eye out for some proper detail on the project and what KAV expect it to bring their shareholders of benefit, till then, nichts of interest. Hopefully not even more dusters being drilled down in the KSZ like lasty time, and Dave C on the money with KCB...
Thanks to F79 for taking the time to pin that point down. If those of you who are doing so could stop literally making stuff up, that would be great.
Stan,
My views are my views. They aren't in defense of the company or to save my investment lol. I share my genuine opinion.
I've said openly my uncertainty about a further acquisition. I'm still uncertain for the reasons I've said before but at least the capital exposure from the RNS isn't too vast.
While I do understand the strategic intent behind it, I remain to be convinced about the deal until we know more.
Maybe focus on your own investments bud. You need to.
Atb
Give Fukurokuju79 credit, he is trying his best to defend Kavango.
He clearly thinks consistently defending the company on a message board will save his investment
Have a nice Thursday 29th June
Yes RNS is light ATM in terms of the project vendor and recent history etc.
You said the Chinese could not make this project work and so what chance do the geniuses at KAV have. Which sounded fairly specific and factually presented.
I'd therefore discounted the DYOR, IMHO tagged at the end of the post. As I associate those more with the opinion elements, rather than a coverall.
So basically there is no known failure of the chinese to make this project work. At this stage.
Thanks. Atb
To be fair, and without meaning to be a smart a*rse I also said "IMHO" and "DYOR"... :)
RNS seems a bit light on detail...
IMHO of course. GLTAH. Still seeing nichts to tempt...
