It looks like a schedule of things which had been on a backlog, which suggests the department is working through and clearing items outstanding. They're not small projects either, so lets hope we're in a short queue and will be at the front as quickly as possible.

I think others have picked up on why i was going on about the state of the port!!!

so ok, ports all silt up over time and you can see the cause of why this will happen. But the works to clear the port is probably a month of proper works - both from the landward and seaward side. its quite the volume of material which needs shifting out. I would expect the sands to go through treatment to rinse out any THM within (ok, maybe it might bring some income) and so thats why i'm tracking a company called TESS Ltd who're on the hook to do the works...

The politics and circumstances around the port do sound a bit grim! But if logic prevails and both the fish packing industry and mineral sands exports are both pushing for it to be dredged of the sand buildup, then this is another key indicator of preparing the way. Obviously there are other ports, but a real benefit is proximity and convenience. More for the news tapestry!

the news flow in on fire! This is how to reinvigorate some confidence.

EIA any day (signing off checks and ceremony?) with the mining licence surely hot on the heels as a key means of getting income to SL.

Anyone tracking what's happening at Oluvil port? probably more important to see as machinery goes in to site, but potentially a key indicator of activity i would have thought (the dredging and enabling activity to have it at 100%).

Having seen the PR efforts from a food package drop, I think there may be a big expectation - from the Sl Government - to have some pomp and ceromony to the EIA and mining licence issuance. Makes sense doesnt it - a huge opportunity to get some greenbacks in, and so why would you just wave a piece of paper across a desk? this opens up the port, gets investment into the area and brings wealth and opportunity - somethingt o celebrate! With the C19 measuresrescinding, i have a suspicion that we're going to get a bit fo a show on EIA and ML day!

Someone is buying, and the dial isn’t moving. Any thoughts if it’s a positive indicator about someone somewhere having some sense ahead of news?

I think the comms to date have become a car crash. Unless anything factual has changed, there is no requirement by the AIM code to issue an RNS. An RNS without substance would be howled at for being a space filler and with no answers on the elusive EIA. There might be logic that an interview take place to demonstrate that company confidence is intact (even though the new hire should show that!) but the obvious thread of 'where's the EIA you near-enough promised' will get Frayne destroyed. What would happen to the SP - to be honest, us retail investors hold such a small proportion that we're not the key audience for comms. The IIs will all have a keen eye on this, and when their limitations come off will be the evidence of what true state we are in. until sucha time as the key RNS comes through, we're just going to see PI noise and the bumping of our gums, as all of us are here to be making a profit, and we're probably all six months behind where we thought we'd be.

I fully concur with your sentiments - this is an absolutely abysmal position that’s been created by over-promising and under delivering against a timeline. I’m sure some of the management team will check in with the boards (they’re human and in this as well regarding their share options) so get something tangible out asap please!

The EIA was in good shape. I have wondered if infra needed doing to evidence commitment (who else has seen empty promises before?) and that might be an implied cause of delay.

I’m personally expecting the mining licence to be hot on the heels of the EIA - there is no reason for a delay whatsoever. Should we get both concurrently, that will be a bonkers day (fingers crossed :) )

Why doesn’t Frayne do an interview to calm the horses?!

Looking at the activity yesterday, there’s clearly a few people unsettled by the government announcements. Sounds to me like another cause of delays for the EIA. I’m not prepared to liquidate at a loss and am willing to hold out, but it’s really irritating that DocH is publishing ‘wow, this is great news’ when it’s not actually the key to us seeing the TEC and EIA anytime soon I fear

Rather than drip (me whinging!) I wrote to them today. Probably achieve not a lot, but it felt better than just venting on here. So if we get an RNS tomorrow, with substance, I’ll take the credit!

Just listened to the 18/01 interview by Franye again. Plan was to be into construction by the end of the year. Seems something is snagging - time for an update really, no matter how gristly it is.

For those of us here since last year, it’s certainly a six month delay on the EIA, as the process started later than from when David has built his timeline out from.

I think C19 has very little to do with the almost six months of delay on the EIA. I have a growing suspicion that delays are caused by political pressure from external interests. Are we caught up on competition for the asset? Or something else? It’s starting to feel more like Ascent Resources by the day…

Why C19 would affect the issuance of an EIA approval is what baffles me. It’s a process and just needs to be chalked up on the governmental schedule, reviewed and approved. If what you read about their economic situation, you’d expect this to have been fast tracked to have fx coming through ASAP.

Another great bit of research! sounds like it could be very close indeed...yet so far!!!

Agreed. I imagine that the team are working at best as they can toward the EIA, but cannot say anything which might irritate and affect the SL govt (whilst they battle C19).

Wouldn’t it be nice if trades were reported as they booked? A 40k buy on the 26th showing this morning.

Some selling because, you know, AIM. But nothing to punch yourself in the nuts for, just as a handful of days factor into when the EIA news will be available.

I did see that when I took a quick look - he does have a bit of a responsibility to some whoh bought in high and have been stuck on the hook! i'd alreday gotten in here, so i'm happy with what will come, just wish i'd bought all of them at the lows rather than on the way down!

we're all set, just one bit of news on the EIA and the teens are long gone, twenties shot through and then the question is how long it takes to get up to fair value...

it’s Aim - I’m amazed at some of the behaviour on the junior market. Nothing has reportedly changed and therefore it’s still looking alright to me…
