My 2p worth
I dont see an offer arriving or if it did being entertained by the major shareholders (who are both worth billions).
Its taken years to get to where we’re at, the debt was to get the mine up and running and with ever increasing gold prices can be easily financed over say a 5 year period (with no haircuts or pressure).
Dont forget the area being mined currently is only a fraction of what we own, i believe if ever the majors were to flog this on it would be once they’d proved up other areas, licences and operating on a debt free basis.
Todays price is irrelevant to those happy to hold (that have already held over 10 years since this journey began).
Our major shareholders are astute businessmen, they wouldn’t sell this at 10p (or thereabouts) off the back of whats happened in the last 18 months (sp collapse due to refinancing issues, director changes, typhoons, biox issues etc) just because it is 10x todays SP
In 12 months time once we’re well on our way to paying back debt owed (having agreed to a sensible restructure), ever increasing gold prices, recovering more gold than ever before thanks to specialist team put in place by our very competent ceo (baring in mind a lot of servicing including fleet and machinery was done in 2019 and first quarter of 2020), proving up and obtaining licenses to explore further afield this will be worth more than 10p a share.
I agree with Volmer in that this is still very risky given we’ve not had a restructuring taken place yet (market preys on such vulnerabilities and we’re priced that way) regardless of everything pointing towards it will. ‘When’ it happens then this will be a different beast and the SP will reflect that.
