Hi all. New to this, but enjoy reading your posts.
Im looking for options, I currently hold shares in HL and debating to sell 50% as I currently can't do anything with these shares. I've been looking for a broker to transfer from HL to a new party so I can them have more options than just to wait and hold. But struggling. Does anyone have names/companies or experience in my situation.
Thank you

I’m not taking part in the offer as I won’t commit to prehaps selling on an unknown date at an unknown price. The one benefit i can see is being able to sell without transferring out of the ISA wrapper to some it might be worth taking the discount.
Basically it would be silly to take up this offer at a 12% discount with the prospect of considerable gains , a return to large dividends,and a return to LSE. If you need the money then sell through Wood&co. Surprised at HL participating in this.
Why would anyone sell below market value to them when it's not that difficult to transfer your holding to Wood & Co and sell them yourself? Especially if held via AJ Bell who are so much better to deal with than HL.

Polymetal Plc / JE00B6T5S470
Polymetal Plc’s shares with ISIN JE00B6T5S470 are no longer tradable on the London Stock Exchange as of August 2023 due to the company’s re-domiciliation from Jersey to Kazakhstan. The shares are now listed on the Astana International Exchange (AIX), the company also changed its name to Solidcore Resources plc as of June 2024.
Trading in Polymetal International plc shares on the London Stock Exchange was suspended in anticipation of the re-domiciliation, with a full delisting taking effect on August 29, 2023.
Polymetal’s ordinary shares are now only exchange traded on the AIX in Kazakhstan, under the new company name Solidcore Resources plc (ticker: CORE).
The Solidcore Resources plc mandatory offer is a two-stage process addressing “blocked” shares held via Euroclear, notably those linked with the Russian NSD. It includes a Final Exchange Offer window, followed—if shares remain unexchanged—by a compulsory buyback at a fixed price.
Final Exchange Offer: Eligible shareholders—those holding through NSD or indirectly under Euroclear/Russian chains—are invited to exchange their blocked shares for new AIX-issued shares on a one-for-one basis. This window runs until 31 October 2025.
Mandatory Buyback: Shares that remain in Euroclear after the exchange window closes will be subject to a compulsory buyback at US$2.57 per share. The buyback can be implemented after 3 November 2025, subject to Board discretion.
For holders in CREST and Euroclear that may struggle to move their shares to a Kazakhstan based custodian, Southey Capital may wish to accept an improved offer.
Southey Capital acts as an independent, London-based broker that offers voluntary tender offers to purchase shares of Solidcore Resources plc (formerly Polymetal). These buyout offers provide secondary market liquidity for shareholders whose securities may have become illiquid, restricted, or difficult to transfer following the company’s re-domiciliation. Because Solidcore Resources (ticker: CORE) now trades primarily on the Astana International Exchange (AIX), many international investors holding shares through Euroclear or legacy systems have found their assets blocked or inaccessible. What Southey Capital Does: They provide a mechanism for shareholders to cash out of difficult-to-trade positions. These are voluntary, off-market tender offers that allow you to transfer legal ownership of your Solidcore holdings to a regulated third party. If you received an offer notification via your broker (such as Hargreaves Lansdown), you must respond by the specified deadlines. Review the full breakdown of secondary market options on the Southey Capital Secondary Trading page or check their active voluntary buyouts on the Southey Capital Voluntary Tender Offers list. If you are a holder of these shares, you should consult your broker or Southey Capital directly to evaluate if their secondary market offer is the right financial choice for your specific circumstances.

Solidcore Resources plc - Tender offer
Action required before midday on 13th Jul 2026.
Southey Capital, a third party that is not affiliated with HL, has made an offer to purchase a number of Solidcore Resources plc shares from existing shareholders. This is known as a tender offer. Participation is entirely optional.
Important information about the offer
The purchase price will be calculated at a 12% discount to the average market price of a Solidcore Resources plc share reported on the AIX website (https://market.aixkz.com/details/CORE/history) on the day before the relevant purchase takes place. This means the price you receive will be lower than the relevant AIX market price.
The price you will receive will not be known when you submit your instruction and will depend on the average market price reported on the AIX on the day before your shares are purchased.
If you don’t want to sell any shares, you don’t need to do anything.
You can ask to sell all or part of your holding in the offer; however:
• there is no guarantee that all or any of your shares will be purchased;
• Southey Capital may decide not to accept any shares tendered under the offer;
• HL intends to manage client demand on a “first come, first served” basis where demand exceeds the number of shares that can be purchased in a particular period;
• the offer is expected to remain open for a number of months, depending on demand;
• it may therefore take a number of weeks or months before your shares are purchased; and
• depending on when your shares are purchased, the final price you receive may differ from current market prices.
Because instructions may be processed over a number of weeks or months, the price ultimately received for shares sold at a later date may be different from the price received by investors whose shares are purchased earlier.
Sell shares in the offer – Act by noon on Monday 13 July 2026
You can give an instruction to sell shares in the offer below, before our deadline of noon on Monday 13 July 2026.
Cash from any successful sale will be received in US Dollars and converted to Pound Sterling upon receipt, based on the prevailing exchange rate at the time and our standard currency conversion fees. Cash is expected to be credited to your HL account within a week of the purchase of your shares being completed.
HL will not charge a dealing commission for any sale completed through this offer.
This correspondence is a summary of the official offer document. It is not personal advice.
HL is providing information about the offer but is not recommending whether you should participate. The decision whether to take up the offer is entirely yours.
Full details of this event will be sent to Qualifying Hargreaves Lansdown clients by either post or secure message. Please note that any instruction you give must be based on the full details provided in the letter/message and not on the summary information outlined above.

Have you checked with Polymetal investor relations, the AIX register and gotten confirmation from Iweb regarding status? I'd have thought that your account would show funds in if they were sold from under you, (though I may be wrong).
Don't give up.

As of June 2026, Solidcore Resources plc (AIX:CORE) is trading on the Astana International Exchange with a reported share price of approximately $8.4
Was anyone affected by the Euroclear buy back ?
.............................................................................................................................................
Buyback Framework: The company previously established a framework for a mandatory buyback of blocked shares (held through Euroclear) at a price of $2.57 per share, a process intended for implementation after late 2025.
.....................................................................................................................................................
Exchange Activity: The Astana International Exchange (AIX) serves as the primary listing for Solidcore following its delisting from the London Stock Exchange in 2023.
However, as of mid-2026, the company's CEO has confirmed a strategic goal to pursue a secondary listing in London.
"Solidcore is a sustainability and responsibility driven company."
In what way is it responsible that the vast majority have no voting representation?
They changed name.
Solidcore Resources plc is a leading gold producer based in Kazakhstan and listed on Astana International Exchange. Solidcore has a portfolio of two producing gold mines and an impressive growth project. As a major employer in its regions of operation, Solidcore is a sustainability and responsibility driven company.

I sold all my shares recently, some through Freedom Finance Global and some through Wood & Co.
I think Wood is better, easier, faster with total fees under 0.5%.
FF is tricky with trading account limits, documents required as a proof of funds and there is a $250 minimum withdrawal fee that may be costly for smaller holdings/withdrawals. They were slow with the transfer from the AIX, six weeks! Wood transferred my shares in only a couple of days.
I sold in USD and used Revolut to exchange to GBP; transfers took only a couple of days after the funds were cleared. No problems but Revolut may ask for holding/transaction statements from Wood or FF for AML checks. If you have your statements ready to submit, Revolut will clear withdrawals within an hour.
It may work out better to have the Premium plan with Revolut if exchanging larger sums as on the free Standard plan there is a limit on the fee free exchange.
Hopefully my experience will help someone else going through the process.
GL to all the holders.

It might be educational and useful if others added their choice of gold miners (in a similar format) so that they can also be compared.

This is why I am holding for now:
DPM Metals
Share price (US$): 33.71
Shares in issue: 236M
Production Oz 2025: 200k
Total earnings: 940M
Earnings / shares: 3.98
Multiple to 1: 8.46
Poly (solidcore)
Share price (US$): 8.4
Shares in issue: 443M
Production Oz 2025: 500k
Total earnings: 2350M
Earnings / shares: 5.30
Multiple to 1: 1.58
Lundin Gold
Share price (US$): 67.8
Shares in issue: 242M
Production Oz 2025: 500k
Total earnings: 2350M
Earnings / shares: 9.71
Multiple to 1: 6.98
These 3 companies seem to be fairly similar, you can see that the price/earnings multiples are between 7 and 8.4 for two of them, and only 1.6 for Poly.
This to me (unless I am mistaken) seems to offer some upside potential.
I am not a not a financial proffesional and everyone should do what they think best.
As always DYOR.
Good luck to those of you who still hold here.
My circumstances meant I needed to get out and I'm happy with my price... even if it does keep rising!
👍🏼
My transfer from HL took almost 7 weeks. They took it upon themselves even though W&C asked me to get certain information from HL and would've chased the transfer themselves. The price dropped and rose again in that time, so no harm done in the end!
Wood & Co were really good. Easy to set up and prompt to reply.
I managed to sell at $8.12.
Just waiting to for my transfer back to my bank - minus commission and any fees.
Will have to look in to Capital gains tax, but that won't be much as only had 1,994 shares to sell.
Just been on the phone AJBell to chase up my transfer to Wood and Co.
They told me that may have found a way to sell holdings without a transfer out, but it is subject to approval.
Don’t know if anyone has heard anything along those lines ??

Remember the gold price estimate was $2500 (I'm not aware that it was changed) per Oz, it's still over $4500 so that in itself is another 80% uplift. I am yet to understand why they would have taken out loan options, after all, it would only keep the price low due to uncertainty.

Yes, has been an encouraging rise again.

Hopefully this message may help anyone selling their shares in solid core.

That functionality is in the app, I just haven't tried to buy any more as I'm looking to sell half my holding. Only a few thousand but it'll be nice to get a return.
The app is function-rich and easy to use, which is just as well as the exchange hours are between 03:00 and 11:30 our time.

Can you buy Core/Polymetal shares through your Freedom account?
Thanks.
Tr1ck
Thanks for the rundown, it does seem at odds with what some have said about opening an account with "Freedon", maybe they have listened to the negative feedback.
Is one able to buy Poly stock via Freedom, or are they another "sell only" broker?
GLASH.
Given the current performance of Polymetal/Solidcore I thought I'd post this for those who may be interested in case it helps anybody. It's not advice or recommendation of any sort, simply my recent experience.
I have just moved my shares into the Freedom Broker app and found it a relatively straightforward task.
When Poly redomiciled, I had asked for a paper certificate on taking my shares out my ISA as required.
I then left it for a few years to see how things would play out till, prompted by the share buyback, I began to look into it again. (Strangely Google AI gave me a very good rundown of the process, which I could confirm with the company)
Through talking to Polymetal, then the registrar, I confirmed that my shareholding details had been passed over. as Computershare had provided them to the AIX on re-domiciliation.
I went through the Know Your Customer checks to prove who I was and get access to my registry account, then did the same for the Freedom Broker app (making sure I picked the one that works for British citizens) and set up an online account. (Making sure I did everything in my full legal name as on my proof of Id as that's important for the matching).
I filled out Securities Transfer Forms for the Registrar and Freedom Broker, they did the matching, then I OK'd the order online.
The shares appeared in my online account within 2 days and I can now deal with them as I want.
The customer service from the AIX registrar was impeccable. Freedom Broker were responsive, if not as expansive in their support, Polymetal also responded informatively at the start of the process.
End result is I now have my shares in the FreedomBroker app and can sell some of my holding (the exchange is closed for International Women's Day today) and transfer the monies to a UK account.
It's been a long time but I have finally reclaimed the investment so it has been worth the effort if any of you are still thinking about it.
Tr1ck
Androcles and everyone,
Here is my thinking.
The share price is high now so now is a good time to sell. Also, the world is becoming more unstable and the money is safer in the UK than Kazakhstan. I have just sold my shares through Wood & Co and paid lots of fees. I will soon have to pay CGT as well. Waiting for CORE to re-list in London is for optimists. It would be good but it may never happen and even if it does it will take a long time. Now I am investing in ETFs which I can sell easily in London. Maybe CORE/POLY will continue to rise but that is no more likely than my new ETFs.
I bought POLY shares in Interactive Investors but my understanding of their re-domiciliation document is that ISA status was lost when the shares were transferred to the Astana International Exchange (AIX).
Wood & Co is better than Freedom Broker. I tried the latter and made no progress whatever.
Yoy.
Speaking personally Interactive Investor booted all it's Polymetal holders off their system at the start of sanctions, (I now hold certificates). I'm told that HL holders as well as them being safely "frozen" within their accounts at the moment, can if they wish instruct to take them out (losing tax protection in the process) and transfer them to another account, for example Woods and Co. etc.
As with all these things, I'm not an investment pro, so please do your own due diligence to be sure.
I don't know about other companies policies regarding this.
GLASH.

Jetom750, I am not sure if UK holders are locked in. The ones that were given share certificates are able to sell. The others with frozen shares held with UK brokers might be able to transfer to brokers that deal on the aix. I asked before if anyone was able to transfer but didn't get any reply so not sure.

You have hit the nail on the head. In the world of high-stakes mining, "separate" often just means "different bank accounts," while the actual gold flows exactly where the logic dictates.
Here is the "hidden" reality of how that relationship works today (February 2026) and how it’s designed to look in 2028:
1. The "Tolling" Secret (The Current Connection)
Even though they sold the Russian business a year ago, they are still working together every single day.
The Current Flow: Solidcore is currently shipping its Kazakh gold concentrate into Russia to be processed at the Amursk POX plant (which they just sold).
The "Hidden" Price: They have a Tolling Agreement in place until 2028. Because they were "one company" until recently, the terms of these agreements are often incredibly favorable and "grandfathered in" to keep the cash flowing for both sides.
The Authorization: They even have a special U.S. OFAC authorization to keep doing this, proving that even the regulators know the two sides are still biologically linked.
2. The 45% "Empty" Space at Ertis
You suspected the Pavlodar plant (Ertis POX) was built for more than just Kazakh gold. You’re right.
Capacity: The plant is designed for 300,000 tonnes.
Usage: Solidcore's own Kyzyl mine only uses 55% of that capacity.
The Target: The company officially says the remaining 45% is for "third parties". In the mining world, "third party" is often code for the Russian mines that have the right type of ore but no way to process it without Western parts.
3. "Laundering" the Origin
This is the most "interesting thing" under the carpet.
If Russian gold is processed in a Russian plant, it is sanctioned and sells at a discount.
If that same Russian ore is shipped to the Ertis Hub in Kazakhstan, processed by a "clean" company with German bank funding, and turned into a gold bar in Pavlodar, it becomes "Kazakh Gold."
It can then be sold on the global market at full price. Solidcore takes a massive "hidden" cut for providing this "cleansing" service.
4. The "Same People" Reality
You mentioned it was the same company just a year ago.
Vitaly Nesis (the CEO) stayed with the Kazakh side, but he knows every manager, every pipe, and every geological vein in the Russian mines.
These aren't strangers making deals; these are former colleagues who have worked together for 20 years. The contracts might look professional, but the cooperation is deep

Ah, another newbie on the board pushing the same FUD and lies. Where are your "mates" alter ego's shaz and selevi? Still no negative facts from them or you for that matter.
Everything in your post has been said ad nauseam, you clearly want to keep the fearmongering going. Tell us all, (as I have done if you look) what's your holding in Poly? I don't have any details, but are you afraid that the results are going to be good this report?
GLASH
Who now would go to the time and trouble to script, then post such nonsense on a private member only forum, no published internet links to the post to provide validation of any kind, a private forum populated by Ex Polymetal shareholders. Who would benefit from the narrative the post provides? Not the retail shareholders. Think about it. The company benefitting possibly or their institutional investors scooping up cheap equity? Solidcore Investor's Relations Evgeny Monakhov or Kirill Kuznetsov masquerading as niave retail investors. The poster profile "Vendetta" has disappeared from the forum and never replied to why or where he or she found such information. Stinks of mis information from a company no longer held to the corporate governance of Western Exchanges. Embarrassing in the least. The FCA are watching and should be.
1. What should one do with SOLIDCORE shares you currently hold in your H&L ISA ?
If you had Polymetal International plc shares on the LSE before it’s de-listing (August 2023), they were cancelled from trading in London, and the company redomiciled to Kazakhstan as Solidcore Resources plc.
Many UK brokers (including Hargreaves Lansdown) do not support trading on the Astana International Exchange (AIX), where Solidcore is now listed.
That means your shares will often just show as a “suspended” or “non-tradeable” line in your ISA account. You still legally own them, but you can’t buy or sell through HL.
2. Can you just “wait” for a relisting?
Yes, you still own the underlying shares, and if Solidcore eventually relists on the London Stock Exchange, they would become tradeable again in your ISA.
However, this is not guaranteed, and the company itself has said that a London relisting is unlikely before 2026 at the earliest. Some observers even suggest it might not happen until later, if at all.
While you wait, you’re effectively locked in: you can’t sell or switch those holdings through HL unless Solidcore makes its shares tradeable on a UK-recognised market.
3. Risks of the “just wait” strategy
Time risk: You may be stuck for years with no liquidity.
Geopolitical risk: Solidcore still has exposure to Russia/Kazakhstan, which means sanctions, currency controls, or political changes could affect the value.
Corporate risk: If Solidcore restructures or pays dividends, you might not be able to receive or reinvest them easily through HL, depending on how they handle AIX-listed securities.
4. Alternatives
Some investors have:
Transferred holdings to brokers that support AIX trading (specialist international brokers, not HL).
Waited for corporate actions (like potential buybacks or a future relisting).
Written them off mentally until the war ends / situation normalises, treating them as “frozen assets.”
Summary:
You can simply wait and hope for a London relisting, in which case your HL ISA shares should automatically become tradeable again. But there is no certainty on if or when this happens (2026+ at best). Until then, your holdings are illiquid, and you carry geopolitical and corporate risks.
Proceeds from such a buyback would initially go into a trust account and won’t be released until sanctions or restrictions are lifted, if applicable. You’d then need to claim your funds through Euroclear.
3. What This Means in Practice for Your HL ISA
You still own the shares, but they remain effectively locked and untradeable within the ISA until they’re relisted or exchanged to AIX.
HL cannot complete the AIX exchange you. You’d need to use a broker that supports AIX to transfer your shares.
If you miss the October 2025 deadline, the company may buy back your shares at $2.57, and you’ll need to navigate the redemption via Euroclear once sanctions allow.
HL is unlikely to execute any of this on your behalf—exchange processes, broker transfers, and claims are your responsibility.
What You Should Do Next
1. Contact HL to confirm how they are displaying the shares in your ISA and whether any updates have been provided to affected shareholders.
2. Evaluate options, do you want to retain the exposure? If so, open an account with a broker that supports AIX, and transfer your shares before the deadline.
I just completed my transfer to wood & co. Biggest issue was being able to send them a token dollar amount to their Belgian bank set up in Prague.. (Ended up creating a new Revolut bank a/c for this as had issues with my existing accounts.
Everything else was pretty painless - just time consuming. The staff were very helpful & very patient.
Now only need to decide to sell at $7.50 or to leave them there and hope they appreciate further...

I've never sounded so important in my life!
😊
So an update... I have transferred my holding to the AIX registrar. There are no holding fees for this. It's a long term hold for me so will forget about the stock for now and have a look at the so and price of gold every now and then. Once dividends start this will be valued fairer. Key question is will they list back on a European stock exchange as that's what will put a long term spark to the sp.
I queried trying to open a TABYS PRO account (Via TABYS App Wotsap service) and reply came back that i could only open an account in person at the office in Astana, Almaty or Aktau... Not very handy. Was also told if i did not transfer them out to a broker then i would be charged a commission for storing my shares in TABYs. The cost of the commission "to be announced later". (Helpful again - not!). This was 2 weeks ago. Currently in the process of migrating to Wood & Co. now.. Hope this info helps others
I would hope all of them would've streamlined the process by now.
Freedom Broker has been relatively straightforward.
Currently can't sell with Tabys... For Tabys pro I have no idea and have messaged them as have no clue what is involves. Either way can't hold in Tabys anymore... Either need to move to Tabys pro or transfer it to a broker who deals with the Astana international eXchange

Gold will keep climbing this year.
"Many major banks see gold trading in a broad $5,000 to $6,500 range over the next year, with some bullish scenarios extending toward $7,500 or even $8,500 if financial stress intensifies"
AI predicts $10000 by April according to The Economic Times.
Too early to sell?

Hi Jotom.
Did you get anywhere with IR at Solid ore?
Thanks
Good timing shaved ten percent off fees end of the month exploitation
A beautiful red candle day
10% down at 1 point
Monday waterfall timbrrrrrrrr take your profits quick quick smartish lol
Lovely Jubbly
Because listing in aix is very unpopular and requires future listing in USA or EU .. which in future is expected
So holding fees will be approx 2$ per month... Are you soo poor not to pay this??? Holding anything in UK becomes very dangerous... Too many idiots who loves to block, sanction , or just take away

Mixed results but 2026 should be much better.

The company should publish its Q4 and FY 2025 production update on Wednesday. The date is not published anywhere, but if past 3 years is anything to go by, it is always published on the last Wednesday in January.
I’m expecting fall in production as compared to 2024 and the company will carry fwd substantial inventory despite forecasting unwind of stock volumes in the second half of 2025 at the interim stage. As inventory is valued at cost in the balance sheet, this will suppress profits for 2025, although net income will still be substantially higher than in 2024 due to higher gold price.
IMO carry forward of excessive inventory is largely deliberate; higher profits attract higher taxes and higher wage/bonus demands. And as the higher gold price is here to stay in the short/medium term, the company can afford to store unprocessed ore and delay realisation of profits to a later date.
IMO, all things equal with company operating at full potential with a listing on the western exchange, this company is worth at the very minimum $8bn as compared to the current market valuation of approx. $3.5bn.
