And you're the bloke who told us earlier on that a placing was debt.

the record of buys versus sells is completely inaccurate. I added another 1m and they were recorded as sells.

Jerry, indeed. That board position limits them in many ways and the revelation of price sensitive information is one of them...which was what I was alluding to.

Baking, I couldn't find any mention at all. It talks about their other jvs, but nothing about us.
We are not an insignificant investment and I find the omission surprising, particularly as they have someone sitting on our board. But I agree, this has proved to be a difficult year, in so far as it's been very frustrating. Of course, we have MR3 to look forward to in the next few weeks and surely to god there must be some news on Cornerstone! They can't still be trying to find someone to translate the document into French! (that excuse still really gets up my nose. Absolute ball****s and Anna, or whoever dreamt it up, should be ashamed of themselves)

have issued their quarterly exploration report. It's exciting news for those of us holding GGP shares, but fails, as far as I can see, to mention SOLG at all.
In my opinion, this reflects the fact something is going on which they feel unable to mention at this stage. It's inconceivable that nothing is happening worth reporting.

I think you'll find the reason is cost. It's £15 to file the form...provided you do it online, which implies you need a computer. It's £50 for the paper form, which is obviously too expensive. Ergo, no filing.

"the share price is dangerously low". Yup, couldn't agree more, Nick. So why don't you do something to improve matters?

and 65 million didn't.

I have a feeling that this issue, in it's broadest sense, came up in the first referendum case. The government representative suggested that it would face huge penalties if mining were stopped and that it couldn't afford them.

the identity of some of those people who spent their time extolling the virtues of Whet and aggressively attacking anyone who questioned them, is getting more and more suspicious.

Perhaps I should have been clearer, MrC. I guess I was suggesting there are degrees of hope and that the company has certainly moved from one level to another. Or do you disagree?

earthling, why did you find it sad? (have a look at the definition of poignant)

It grieves me greatly to think that Mr Terry has received a single penny as a result of this settlement.

Stroga, that's not quite true. Now that the company has signed with Ganfeng, it has moved beyond the "hope" phase, although the need to the additional funds is still an issue.
For me, the current sp is what I've been anticipating since the deal was first announced. The placing price was 25p, which is the value placed upon the company by Ganfeng. The market is simply asking the question; "at this stage, why should it be worth much more?" The fact it has traded above that price is simply a reflection of retail punters driving interest.
It has taken forever, but the fact is, the company has moved forward, but it still has a long way to go.

Well, one thing's for certain - they haven't bought into the company simply for a laugh. And the same applies to BHP.
Both of them will have a strategy and I'm looking forward to seeing them unveiled.

A very useful overview; thanks for posting.

AROK, I think it's very easy to underestimate this statement. That sentence was probably the most important thing said by the company for a very long time. Without it, virtually all other discussion was meaningless. It's just a shame they took so long to clarify matters.

AROK, it was very good to see that sentence in the RNS and I'm delighted they eventually got around to mentioning it. Maybe they do read this site.

I'm pleased they put something out, but I do wonder if they received the news via pigeon carrier? By the time we received this announcement, all of the protagonists had been at home for a couple of days, with their feet up, watching Calle Coronacion.

If I'd been daft enough to believe the nonsense that was written about WHET and had invested, I'd be banging on their office door demanding some answers.
By law they are required to hold an AGM; will anyone attend? It's going to be the only chance you get to establish what's going on.
