Who said it wasn’t still in the ground! Grow up!!
Still an interesting article. A possible good solution to bring to electrification of the world forward quicker and cheaper which has to be a good thing.
The demand for copper will still be huge and if our “management” can ever get their act together we will get a reasonable pay day.
You guys don't get it , the copper is in the ground , nobody is mining it nor selling it , its in the ground. C'mon , wise up.
The Italian good find there
And by the way, net-net I would think that this is good news for a junior mining explorer. If EVs and 48V technology become less demanding on copper resources, it should promote more EVs and 48V applications, which would promote an even wider need for copper overall. Electrification is a worldwide process we don't even measure to its full extent. There are 2 billion people on the planet with no access to electricity and technology must become cheaper to scale.
But back on the favourite topic, where are the SOLG buyers????????????
Thanks for posting, very interesting article!
Possible cheaper electric cars one would hope too!

Didn’t mean to sound patronising - enjoy your wine needalife and all the best
Tiny ray needless life
Dg1. Please mate. Don't patronise me. I do get out and about. I lead a pretty full and varied retirement. If you notice 90% of my posts are early am or lateish evening my time. The lateish evening ones usually after a glass to many of shiraz. Please don't think I include you Dg1. But I will not be spoken down to by a few pompous poms, who still think they're special, without responding.

Why would you waste your energy wishing anyone on an "anonymous blogging board" a crap life? Do you not see the contradiction? As for you I wish you the best and everyone else buddy.
I understand your point Needalife - your viewing at as a form of crusade fighting back against where you feel you have been slighted or done wrong. That’s fair enough and I certainly sense your frustration and from that why you challenge every positive with an opposing view.
My own opinion in terms of getting into the mud slinging poster v poster is that it’s just fruitless mate - it’s a rabbit hole which will be unlikely to bring much satisfaction as it goes round and round - honestly and sincerely I just don’t believe it’ll bring resolve nor is great use of your time for your own well being ……however if you derive some fun from it then I get it - everyone gets their kicks in different ways - one man’s water is another man’s wine so to say
As for SOLG my opinion is that it’s been a tiresome journey - I do believe errors have been made from mgt and if they had their time over maybe a different path would have been chosen. I’m obviously not privy to all that has gone on and as such I can’t really lay direct blame on anyone but it’s clear to anyone who has followed the story that this is not where they envisaged us being all these yrs after discovery - (remember the 60p options ! Haha)
Moving forward I don’t believe it’s quite a dire as some of your posts might make one think and also not as pink and rosey as others paint - the truth probably lays somewhere in between
It’s as good as mothballed is my honest opinion - cutting back with next to
Nothing going on in the field and likely very little going on in the SOLG boardroom - my hunch is it’s been like that for some time. The issue is when you strip away the hype and spin and bull ….it leaves very little in the way of things they can say or put out - they say it’s a conscious decision a new path to only report on actual facts rather than endless broken promises - my view is that they came to the end of the road with the deceit of working hard
That said I do very much believe Maxit and Citi are working hard (this is what is affording the rest of SOLG mgt to hide away in the shadows) - I do believe that interested parties are indeed undertaking due-diligence - who knows what this will yield.
I’ve long held the view that Mather thinks it’s worth loads but he’s dilusional - right market - right time - right macro - right jurisdiction he’s probably right. However I reckon Maxit Bob Caldwell Irwin etc would all be over the moon to get out around 40-50p …..they might get it - but if not then can they convince Mather to walk at say 30-35p …….maybe this is what the Chinese are waiting on
All the best and honestly get out and about and don’t be dragged down by these bulletin boards
Sums you can only dream of.

Once again, who rattled your cage tiny, who's even mentioned you ? #rentfree in your 😓
Move along now nothing to concern yourself with here, unless you're going to buy another 100k worth of stock lolzzz
Dg1, you may want to look back earlier today to novices latest post to see my point
Dg1. Off course your right in what you say regarding my obsessive posting. The only defence I have, if it is a defence. Is that when I got to the point of feeling the need to challenge some of the utter rubbish posted on here, I was met with a deluge of mass hysteria. I was, accused of being many many other aliases, I was an imposter, infesters, Blackrock stooge, paid by lse to increase posts, illiterate, The list is endless. So me being me, I decided to prove they're point. And that my friend is were I'm at. But dgi, I wish you well with your investment.
Explains why you're broke novice.

Who rattled your cage tiny ??? just cant resist it can you Lolzzz!

one way or another the gov of ecuador will have to pay back the loans......blocking copper and gold mining or taxing it too much likely to quickly result in a phone call from beijing or the imf washington.
ft weekend: "several of the 22 countries to which china has made rescue loans — including argentina, belarus, ecuador, egypt, laos, mongolia, ****stan, suriname, sri lanka, turkey, ukraine and venezuela — are also recipients of imf support.
however, there are big differences between imf programmes and chinese bailouts. one is that chinese money is not cheap. “a typical rescue loan from the imf carries a 2 per cent interest rate,” said the study. “the average interest rate attached to a chinese rescue loan is 5 per cent.”
Needalife - you do post a lot. Of course that’s entirely your perogative and you can do what ever you like. I was pondering though - for one who is clearly so downbeat and negative on the company why spend quite as much time as you do posting, sometimes 5 or 6 times again - it’s a genuine question
I do actually think you raise some interesting points and I’m also pretty down on the company myself at the moment but I just don’t get the value in the constant messaging
I’m all for a balanced board, differing opinions and I certainly don’t sit in the all is rosey camp - far from it.
Maybe if you’re hurting and underwater email Scott Caldwell - scaldwell@solg.au.com (I think it is) or maybe Mather - must be a way to get to him. It strikes me they don’t have too much else going on so should be able to respond - I think Caldwell is meant to be heading up IR
Im not in the camp that Cascabel will be taken off SOLG and given away by any new govt to a major on the cheap - that would surely be future outside investment suicide
Timing of Lasso’s move was not ideal but we didn’t seem to be going anywhere fast anyway - I mean waiting for this exploitation license is not a new thing - Ecuador is a bit of a mess for sure right now but over the years it often is. New mines were permitted / constructed and produced under previous left wing govts so it’s not likely that the industry would just stop whomever gets in next.
It’s a challenging time for sure - maybe the politics will force our hand to accept a lower bid sooner or maybe there is no bid at all coming - none of it is terminal though
Anyway all the best
Only a fool wishes another a crap life.
Anyone with a decent life doesn't wish anyone a bad one..
I don't see it as all bad. Conaie and Correa's supporters have so far held off calling for street protests (which always turn into riots). If Lasso does not run for reelection, and his opponents feel that they're better served preparing for the elections in 6 months instead, that's plenty of time for the FTA to be ratified, and maybe even the exploitation agreement signed, which are the necessary green lights. Of course sentiment on the streets will likely determine what all of them decide to do.
I'd be happy with either, but still believe over time this will go for between 2 to 2.5 billion which is bang on that prediction, could be slightly more as we move on
I thought so needless life, thanks for confirming in a roundabout way, Have a crap life, hope you manage to get a proper job one day ... Au revoir as they say or not ?
SWS reports a target price reduction from 72p to 66p.
Personally I would be relieved to see that we can reach half that to show that there ia life in the share.

2 luke. The report you posted states lasoo said he will govern in purgotry for 6 months.
There in lays the problem. Election early 2024, coinciding with cash raise. Bearing in mind south American elections, disruption, civil unrest etc, smack in the middle of trying to raise cash, for a lame company. I wonder who can put a positive spin on that
