Have you read the financials? The cash is gone and going concern is mentioned. If there is a takeover going to happen it better be quick before the placement. It's going to be a tough week here
Finally. The flush is on. This is it. Time to buy what you can at current prices. Everyone apart from some are under water including the the big investors. Kind of glad this is taking place as something needs to give. Takeover on the cards 90% I reckon. Interesting week ahead. !!!
Agreed Munch. We need a juicy RNS and now. The market is treating nearly all AIM mining companies as junk and elsewhere alot of my portfolio has crashed as projects are shelved on funding fears. We should be fine here, but the market needs to know this from the bosses by way of an RNS. Imo I am hoping we get bought out at a decent price and let someone else take the risk in developing the mine.
August is always quiet. News flow will start next month.
Good luck mate.
This actually shows Cotec ambitions with investments 3x and 5x already apart from from Mka. For them to invest in Mka they must be looking atleast 3x also. It’s a long slug but trust in the asset is what’s required. Important week ahead. We need to break 20s. Let’s hope we start tomorrow with a stinking rns. I’ve let Mka Twitter team know what we think as investors so hopefully they will start to get the gist. Here’s to next week and beyond !!!!
Already a few days old, and not very spectacular, bt nevertheless:
Mr. Julian Treger, CEO of the Company commented: "Events in the first half of the year have reaffirmed we are on the right track. The unfortunate war in Ukraine has created real shortages in certain commodities which technologies that we have secured access to could help solve. The spike in energy prices has made the shift to greener lower carbon solutions more urgent than ever. The end of globalization and global just-in-time supply chains are adding to strategic commodity demand and the weaponization of commodities by Russia means that it is more important than ever for the West to have security of supply and independence with respect to strategic minerals. CoTec could assist in this process."
Our three portfolio investments are doing very well and two have increased significantly in value in a short time. Binding Solutions Limited is progressing rapidly and its revenues are much higher than last year. It is currently looking to raise funds at approximately triple our investment cost. Magiron LLC continues to expand its asset base and could play a major role in creating green steel independence for the United States. It is looking at raising capital at more than five times our recent cost. Finally, Mkango Resources Ltd. is building its pilot plant in the United Kingdom to demonstrate its green magnet and rare earth recycling business at scale."
That 100k block buyer is welcome to continue on Tuesday!
Getting closer people!! Exciting ??
Vascular. I would agree only if they were insiders or knew of the MDA delay. Any outsider wouldn’t dare do it especially with RRE & mka always in the news / tabloids.
It’s a fair point. Why don’t the directors buy ? Open market? Personally my rule number 1 is “ don’t trust the market “ so anything could be afoot but looking ahead mka seem too much of a professional company with people hoping to make big names for themselves from its success for any dodgy dealing of shares to take place. Remember it’s millions of shares they have been sold and with the last TR1 about 6 months after the trades took place I wonder who’s buying / selling the current load.
One theory could be that the share has been shorted since January 22.
If you think this is crazy talk then look at the charts since January and you will see quite clearly anyone able to short this share since then would have done brilliantly, especially in todays market climate. This does not in anyway detract from the fantastic opportunities here - but could be an explanation why peeps have been "selling" at some apparently crazy prices this past seven months and the share price has responded. Just a thought.
Parker, I don’t personally think it’s the Russian investor. This has been going on for about 7 months now with decent sized sells of 70ks 100ks and regular 50ks. I don’t understand how they can sell at these prices unless they purchased at 6-9p.
It’s very strange especially when we are on the cusp of such great news.
The MDA is going to take whatever time it does and I for one have hoped it’s sooner rather than later.
I just think this all boils down to a buyout. There’s no way we would be this low especially when the market knows what’s coming. I think it’s fine tactically to force sellers and also get Mka on the cheap. The funding issue was rns’d and how commercial banks were in talks …. Mka seem to have gone awfully quiet and it’s because something huge is in the background. Them banks could easily have come to the site on behalf of Totalenergies or the US via jonas group. There’s just too many big players involved with this asset / company and its nailed on to double / treble in price over time or a takeout which is my bet now.
If ever there was a time to use that MEL GIBSON emoji where the charge is onm and hes says " HOOOOOOOOLD" is required now more than ever.
looks like extra seling pressure today and if we can get throiugh holding 17p today we can fight it again come next week but make no mistake theres a seller out there in force and today just feels like a flush and hopefully will be the end of this seller.
in the meantime if we are wise enough we should realise this is a buying opportunity to average down.
Hi Munchbox, thank you, nice post.
Could it not be the Russian investor you are looking for? Or should we have seen a notification? I have to admit iI have lost track here.
Wrt to your expected RNSes: I could imagine the all important MDA could take a while longer, no?

Positive vibes yet again and loving the positivity being created however I don’t really wana “watch this space “ but would rather “ watch the trades” as buyers are required to push the price forward.
It is obvious Mka have submitted the full application documents for the MDA as management are not currently in Malawi so hoping for a blockbuster rns or 2 very soon.
Must admit I have been watching the sells over the last few months and millions have been sold with the seller accepting price ranges with a min of 17.5p, who could it be ? Well it could be someone who holds a large amount and have been asked to release stock in order to allow a possible takeover without having the power to block it.
It could be a forced seller however it must be someone with large skin in the game as by my calculations up to 3-7 million shares have been sold in similar amounts over the past 7 months depressing the price. That’s about 3-5% of shares in issue and there’s not that many that hold above 5-10% of Mka stock. Again this is only an assumption and something to ponder about.
Once we break 20p this time we all hope there’s a rally like no other and all it takes is one or two decent blue days to change sentiment.
Time is running out on many fronts and I really sensed last week we would see a breakout however with each day passing we get closer to the major newsflow we have all been waiting for.
Talaxis deal had a lock in period so it’s not them. Very interesting indeed. Either way there’s a change of guard going on and hypromag seems to be a company maker on its own, listing that as a separate entity is almost certain and a matter of time.

MKA….Great to involved in the commercialisation of HPMS #RareEarth magnet recycling technology via our interest in #HyProMag - UK homegrown innovative technology developed @unibirmingham #MKA #RareEarths
BIRMINGHAM ENERGY… Yesterday Professor Allan Walton and Will Dawes (@MkangoResources) had the pleasure of being interviewed by @DrDavidGK from @bbcmtd at our #RareEarth magnet recycling facility - the first of its kind in the UK. #WatchThisSpace #HyProMag
@MkangoResources 18.5p, Mkt Cap £40m – Filing of NI 43-101 DFS for Songwe Hill is a key milestone for #MKA Songwe joins a small group of #rareearth projects globally that have progressed to the DFS stage/hold the company in good stead when looking to finance the development of Songwe https://twitter.com/Share_Talk/status/1561733409663328258?s=20
From today’s rns it looks like they are getting the legal formalities out of the way.
Still holding back company value adding info that only the insiders are probably aware of.
Looks like a takeover is on the cards here. Hoping for another rns this week as history shows MkA rarely issues one rns but in fact they issue them in 2s and 3s. Let’s hope we get further jv news on thambani or another jv agreement with hypromag.
Was also wondering what’s going on with the SCREAM project that involved major auto manufacturers and an update on that front would also be good. Come on mka.
Needs the integrated DFS
Link was from RNS
I think the 43-101 DFS report presents the DFS of 5 July in the form required by the Canadian Stock Market.
This is dated 5 July.....wrong link?
US$559.0 million post-tax net present value (“NPV”), using a 10% nominal discount rate, with an internal rate of return (“IRR”) of 31.5%, payback period of 2.5 years from full production (5 years from start of capital expenditure) and post-tax life-of-operations nominal cash flow of $2.1 billion.
• DFS is for 100% of Songwe on a stand-alone basis. Under the Mines and Minerals Act of Malawi, the Government of Malawi is entitled to a 10% free carried interest in Songwe.
• Songwe is now confirmed as one of the very few rare earths projects globally to have reached the DFS stage, with a full Environmental, Social, Health Impact Assessment (“ESHIA”) completed in compliance with IFC Performance Standards and The Global Industry Standard for Tailings Management (2020) (“GISTM”) adopted for design and management of the tailings storage facility.
• Long operating life of 18 years, with mining assumed to commence in February 2025, production ramping up from July 2025 and averaging 5,954 tonnes per year total rare earth oxides (“TREO”) for the first five years of full production (September 2025 – August 2030), including 1,953 tonnes per year of neodymium and praseodymium oxides, and 56 tonnes per year of dysprosium and terbium oxides, in a mixed rare earth carbonate (“MREC”) grading 55% TREO, generating nominal EBITDA of US$215 million per year.
• Neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium and terbium are critical for the green transition, used in permanent magnets for electric vehicles, wind turbines and many electronic devices.
• Initial capital expenditure (“capex”) of US$277 million (excluding a US$34 million contingency) for development of mine, mill, flotation and hydrometallurgy plants, tailings storage facility, and related project infrastructure in Malawi.
• The NPV excludes any value attributable to the proposed Pulawy Rare Earth Separation Project (“Pulawy”) in Poland, which is expected to process MREC from Songwe, enabling Mkango to capture additional value via growing its integrated downstream business with a captive source of primary raw material feed from Songwe. The NPV also excludes any value attributable to Mkango’s interests in rare earth magnet recycling.
Great find profit. Again we are getting confirmation that this is bigger than we think. There’s no way these guys are standing still whilst we wait.
As I said before, there’s so much happening behind the scenes and it’s only a matter of time. Patience folks.
Last two buys were mine so got my 54000 shares a tad below 18.5. Made no difference to the SP. Bring on the MDA soon
Is definitely on the cards here. It’s something we have overlooked. Looking back now they played it clever from the songwe deal in order to capture in excess of 30% equity and could easily offer £100m or 45p costing them technically £70m to buy out MKA.
45p wouldn’t be accepted but they surely must have be eye on an offer.
Today’s trades show a few large sells and it’s obvious these were from earlier this week as traders bail out. However it would be nice to get some buyers here.
Really surprised to see it dry up like the Sahara desert especially after all the noises being made about a tsunami of news flow coming out.
Not long to go now. Share suspension pending a takeover coming real soon …..well it’s what I’ve wished for :))
