So why don't you tell us what DC was doing prior to his sacking? Had he instigated a strategic review? Had he got a renewal of the licence and had he negotiated the terms of the exploitation agreement? Was he on track to get a revised IPA? Was the company under the control of the CGP interests?

It's not my fault you can't see what's changed.

DM, actually there weren't that many and I didn't see any which were asking for details of confidential information. I admit some were quite pointed, mine included, but it's about time these blokes gave us answers to the pointed stuff and not just anodyne BS relating to questions they feel like answering. They do this at agms as well, and it really gets up my nose.

If they had no intention of supplying answers the muppet who was in the chair shouldn't have said they would reply.

Incidentally, a promise was made to reply to all of the questions which weren't answered at the results presentation; anyone had a response? I haven't.

DM, yup, I get that. However, for me the fear of a complete meltdown if he fails to be re-elected, is more than enough to win my vote. It would be carnage.

I wonder if he understands just how damaging his talk of production and 2025 was. If he didn't at the time, it's now staring him the face. Do you remember those people who were suggesting we'd be in production by 2025?

Yes or no, DM? Or is it wait and see?

Eish, likewise, although mine was more about what I thought of the results presentation and the risk he's running with private investors...although I don't think he needs reminding.

In fact I'd urge everyone to write to them now - there's no point waiting for a day or so before the AGM.

Orthern, I'll take that as a no, then.

TI, I can't disagree with any of that.

If we make the assumption the company keeps an occasional eye on this site - I know Fawzi did - as it currently stands, how many of you will be voting for Scott's re-election? Yes or no.

Mather, I agree with your final point, but be in no doubt, China sees the West as an enemy to be defeated by economic means. Everything they represent is inimical to the supposed values we cherish.

We should not be banging a militaristic drum, but sadly they are. What happens to Taiwan and how the West reacts, is by far the greatest threat to our collective security. And the Philippines, a country I know well, is equally at risk. Never forget Sarajevo.

Mather, from recent suggestions it looks as if our relationship with the Chinese is better than it is with our original backers, so what you say makes a lot of sense. A whole year and yet SC admits things with BHP are still in need of repair. Let's hope he can do a better job with Newmont.

On a broader point, China is taking full advantage of the fact the West doesn't appear to know which way is up. America, a nation with many incredibly bright people, is run by morons - so too are virtually all western nations. Our leaders are utterly clueless and seem content to sit back and worry themselves about complete trivia. China is our enemy and it's time we stopped giving them free rein in their drive for economic colonialism. Our children and grandchildren will pay the price.

QED. You quite obviously don't understand the difference between those brokers who actually cover a stock and the computer generated tosh you think is proper analysis. In fact, do you actually understand what it means when a broker states it covers a stock?

I'll give you a clue. It means a real analyst spends time researching the company, meeting management, going on site visits and producing a document which provides full details of the business, trends in its market place and a view of the macro picture. It then offers an opinion of a price target and whether its a buy, sell or hold. It doesn't mean a computer programme that provides a record of price movements and an algorithm which purports to predict price trends for the future.

Nal, you really don't understand anything, do you. The brokers listed on the web site are those which cover this stock. Do you imagine they would allow a deliberate lie to appear on a publicly listed companies publicity material?

Just how thick are you? I know one thing; you are easily the most stupid person I've ever come across on one of these bulletin boards - and that's really saying something. I'd give it a rest if I were you.

Well said DM.

Sean, absolutely right. Every time one of our CEOs has banged on about production, we get hammered. You'd have thought the message may have got through by now. Being charitable, I wonder if he says it because he doesn't want to spook the government?

Bozi, I can certainly understand why some small private investors are giving up, particularly those who are driven by what they see on a screen and panic accordingly. Of course, there will also be those who listened to Caldwell last week and either weren't impressed, or who actively don't believe him - and that's fair enough. But bear in mind, we're talking about tiny numbers of shares here.

One is trying to flog cryptos, one is claiming to be AI and the other is trying to flog everything. They are all computer driven Not one of them will have the faintest clue what this company is actually about, nor the narrative behind it. If you really want to know which firms cover this stock, look at the company web site and look at the price targets.

Hilariously, you genuinely believe those web sites you referred to are expert analysts in this stock. Honestly, you couldn't make it up.

Nal, to save you the bother I've drafted a letter to Caldwell for you to send:

"Dear Mr Caldwell,

You are a liar and so are the company's auditors. I know you haven't got sufficient cash to last until June '24 and you're delusional if you think we have.

I'm currently locked in the data room and I can tell you there's no one else here. This is just another example of your lies and delusions.

Yours sincerely,

Inneedofabrain.

p.s I've lost the key - can you let me out please?

p.p.s I'm not actually a shareholder, but I still enjoy traducing the company at every opportunity because that horrible man Mather nicked my lunch when we were at infants school together.

Your post at 9:11. "The political situation, as in most South American countries can change overnight. Look at Gabon". Only you would think you meant something else - English comprehension not being your strong point.

Our financial position is no different to what it's been for years. We raise money, we spend it. This is what happens with non-revenue producing explorers. We currently have sufficient cash until June '24, or do you think our auditors were lying when they signed-off on the accounts?

As to your last point, you believe Caldwell is a liar, but have never challenged him. Give it a go and please report back.
