Increased about 4,300% since potential asset sale was announced. Peaking at over 9000%. Not too shabby.

Yep definitely, but it didn't for me for days and I realised it was because I had pop ups blocked. As soon as I followed the steps below it appeared for me (and a whole lot of others too). I did try to phone but it was taking forever.

Seems a lot of people have had issues with voting on live chat as it does not appear for everyone. You need to allow pop ups to use the live chat to appear on your browser. This worked for me:
Go on Google Chrome
Click the 3 dots on the top right
Click settings
Click privacy & security
Click site settings
Click pop-ups and redirects
Toggle the 'allowed' setting to ON
Then go back to your provider and the live chat should work.
After you submit your vote remember to turn the settings back off to stop pop ups elsewhere!
Tell the representative in the live chat something like "There is an upcoming EGM for Eurasia Mining, I wish to appoint the Chairman as the proxy for my vote in favour of all motions. Could you action this please?"
That should be it. Very painless.
Happy voting,

Hi Brookers, Good to see you're still here!
I wrote the original post that Onassis has quoted available here with other good summaries from others: https://www.powerof78.com/2021/03/27/eua-alta_traako-guest-post/
Point 2 "very cheap" was going by previous auction values that have been up to $30 million. With the 9 additional pits being contained in 2-3 licences (Alex and Rich found them on the licence map) at $30million each. So full value of 3 licences approx. $90m assuming it follows the normal pattern. Hope that's useful.
Take care,
Alta
The SP was less than a penny for about a decade. Then a good 6 month window of SP being like 2-7p between the banks news and suspension. Plenty of time for a cheap buy in. Not the BOD fault you waited for the most expensive buy in price. Take responsibility for yourself and stop blaming others.

Option 2: Could be that there is a little bit of work left to do and they are looking to IMPROVE their resources based on the following quote:
“The applied for area contains a significant portion of an area to the north and west of the West Nittis deposit known as the Nittis Kamuzhaya Travanya (NKT ) Massif, an area previously mined for high grade nickel and copper and with resources in PGM provided to the Company by the Apatity branch of the Territorial fund of geological information. At NKT a Russian category P resource (similar to an Inferred Resource under the JORC classification) was calculated by the state funded research group Rosgeologia in 2017 and comprises Ni - 298,000 t; Cu - 229,000 t; Co- 11,300 t; Pt - 18.5 tonnes/594,000 oz; Pd - 55 tonnes/1.7moz; Au - 7.6 tonnes/0.24moz; Ag - 185 tonnes/6moz. This resource has not been verified by the Company and accordingly cannot be relied upon, but is provided as an indication of potential. The Directors believe further potential resources exist in the on-strike continuation of the mineralisation at the Loipishnune deposit as it extends into the area between Loipishnune and West Nittis, in fact several early 'discovery holes' drilled by Eurasia in 2006 occur in this area beyond the current extent of the proposed Loipishnune pit and contain significant intervals including 8.4 g/t (Pt+Pd) over 3.6m occurring in Drillhole UM-3(see RNS dated 5th November 2006). These areas may be followed up in due course and, if so, the Company will provide updates as applicable.” [20].
Option 3: Potentially more work to be done in the ‘wider area’ (i.e. not in the flanks) to INCREASE the resources. This can be speculated from:
“In relation to additional 25Moz (those resources in addition to the 15Moz of PGM in Monchetundra and its flanks) the information contained in the State Cadastre has not been independently verified by Eurasia and it is therefore provided for guidance purposes only. The Company would need to verify the data in the Russian Cadastre through additional work and drilling, if it was to incorporate the data into the defined resources of the Company (as required by the relevant mining standards and the AIM Rules). The Company may undertake such work as and when it is deemed necessary and, in any event, if it determines to progress with expanding the operations of the Company; building upon the data sets already established by previous licence holders” [21]
Been a bit doom and gloom on here so here's some positivity going into the weekend from RNS that I'm sure everyone has already read (O.O). These are just my basic thoughts from RNS. Feel free to agree or disagree. There will be no fancy satellites or old papers from research gate presented. Just plain old RNS with links provided at the end.
EUA becomes extremely attractive due to increased metal value and everyone noticed the sale value of similar mines, so banks got involved to try to cash in on the last mine of its type [1].
The BOD announce that there are multiple parties interested in out company [2]
In the interest of dealing with them all, they begin FSP [2] to have all interested parties sign NDA rather than dealing with everyone individually.
They bring third parties on board to facilitate all of this (e.g. UBS [2], DLA [3]).
The BOD present XYZ data making XYZ claims (e.g. MT 1Moz PA plan [4], 15.5 Moz [5], 7Moz here [5], WK production can be scaled up [6]) to interested parties after signing NDAs at the beginning of the FSP.
Interested parties say well that all sounds great If you can prove it to ‘X’ extent then we will offer this, and if you prove it to ‘Y’ extent then we will offer this). They then submit non-binding offers [7].
We know a non-binding offer stipulates what each party expects from the other etc [8, 9, 10].
So, BOD essentially have a to do list and head off to prove their claims. They sack off the WK contractors to give them free reign over WK [11], get Typil licence [12], WK DFS [13], MT flanks [14], access to data at MT from NN [15], Alexei Boucher prepping samples since November 2019 just before MT was declared as a site of federal significance (i.e. valuable) [16]
Absolute precision were in discussion with EUA since at least March 2020 [17] and wrapped up their work in Monchegorsk (our area. We are the only ones with mining licence here) just before the New Year [18].
So, what is left to do?
Well, the FSP is still ongoing despite the difficulties/ delays so no worries there [19] so I can think of 3 options.
Option 1: Nearly there. Could be that all of the terms from the non-binding offers are met and they are discussing the final details.
Agree, Ben.
Also pointed out by M B, the RNS also says "Person subject to Code presumption of acting in concert with the offeree Eurasia Mining PLC" indicating that this was known and planned for well in advance by the BOD and wasn't a surprise to them. I think the reaction (understandably) was purely because of the name of the seller rather than the rationale behind the sell. Waiting on the big dirty bounce north now.

To be clear there are 2 Telegram groups. Pre suspension private group with 269 (giggidy) members who have been here for years and have done a power of research, and the post suspension public group with 1316 members which was created because it was assumed there would be a lot more interest in EUA after suspension. The post suspension group was created so that all the research could be put in one place for new investors. Given the size of that then yeah half of everyone's green box is probably in there too since its public.
There's also a third group but it's even busier and you need a passport to join that one.
Here's the link to anyone interested but nothing much to talk about apart from licences, speculation, and going on the wind up while we wait for more news: https://t.me/eua_palladium

Definitely a good post. Here is a link to the original author for anyone interested: https://www.powerof78.com/2020/07/19/eua-potential-bidders/
There is a lot of good information on the site if anyone else needs a reminder on EUA.

Anti,
The company are not holding back. If you email the company, like many of us have, they will tell you that they are required to update the market on a project level (e.g. WK and MT progress) when they have new information as per the AIM regulations. NDA covers the FSP (e.g. parties involved and specific discussions), it does not override their responsibility to update shareholders on project developments. Therefore, any resource upgrades and any other development such as the feasibility study will be RNS'd if we are not sold before then.
Obviously don't take my word for it. Email the BOD to get it in writing from them.
Hope that helps.
Alta.
Mac, you've gone and triggered a Linkin Park binge with those sneaky lyrics. This will mae waiting for news a lot better. Maybe if I listen to an album per day we will be sold by the time I'm done! SOON!
GLA,
Alta
Mcap: "I am currently £760m"
PATT: "EuA OnLy WoRtH £400m"
No they would not be happy to be robbed. I'm pretty sure they would like fair value for the company. Maybe for 25p we can sell WK after the feasibility study and Semenovsky and a tractor or something. Then we can sell MT to someone else for a quid. I think the ii's would also have something to say given that some have added at over 25p as noted elsewhere online and the £10M placing was at 22.5p. They're not here for 2.5p profit.
But if you're selling your shares for 25p just now then I am more than happy to take them off your hands. Hell I'll give you 26p to be nice.
8ead,
In my experience pump and dumps are a company picked at random that out of nowhere skyrockets and within a day of two (if not within an hour) crashes right back to where it was leaving people with a loss that bought in on the spike. EUA have went from 0.25p to 30p is because we had a steady stream of positive news, a rally in metal prices, and interest from other companies and banks about selling the assets or company. It has also been a consistent rise over the whole year as the BOD keep adding value. Every part of the rise in SP is underpinned by official news and therefore cannot be a pump and dump. If anything we can see the SP being supressed. Also being in FSP would be a pretty stupid way to pump and dump since the aim is to cash out at the top and let it drop but if the company is in the sale process then its hardly going to drop.
The second thing you'll keep seeing is that it is all a scam. As per takeover code and aim regulations the company would not be able to be in FSP without proving that they have something to sell. The takeover code can be read online on the official website. As per official RNS (barring the updated resources from the presentation) we are trying to sell at least 15Moz of Pd equiv and the 1000koz PA plan at MT, and we have several interested parties. This was signed off by the NOMAD who have to ensure the content of RNSs are accurate. You simply cannot get to FSP stage on hype and fake data.
As you mention the reputation of the companies in our corner is also a massive give away. Do you think for one moment that UBS or DLA would be involved with anything that could damage them? They would get one whiff of something off and they would report us in a heartbeat to distance themselves from anything dodgy. I know everyone says how incredible our BOD is but the people in charge of other companies are equally skilled and would spot BS from a mile away, leading banks and law firms will likely be especially good at spotting it.
Anyway, best not to rely on anonymous posts on the BB, including me. Read through the RNS over the last year and see for yourself. Make it a drinking game and every time the BOD make it clear that we are being sold take a shot. You'll be p****d in no time.
Good luck everyone.
Alta
After a year of topping up now at 3.6p
I'd imagine the article used the 2.2 Moz updated from 1.9Moz because that is all they have a mining licence for and has been in the public domain for years (e.g. the 1.7 billion valuation for 1.9Moz from Mining Maven in 2017). The Moz from flanks and exclusivity zone are exploration licences and not mining licences. So to be extremely accurate they would not try to place value on that. Likely the value for the additional 13.3 Moz from flanks (exploration licence) and the 7Moz (exclusivity and would be exploration licence) is what is being analysed and negotiated just now during FSP. Therefore, it would probably breach the NDA, and at the very least be extremely unprofessional for the company to speculate about how those would be valued in public while negotiations are ongoing. The value of the mining licence (now 2.2Moz) has been in the public domain for years so there is no issue for them speaking about that but it is probably all they are allowed to say at the moment.
The article using the mining licence numbers was clearly another opportunity to say "by the way the SP is rising because we're selling" after having to release that speeding ticket RNS which also directed people to the 30th September RNS that said "we know exactly why the SP is moving and here is where to find the info". Can feel the frustration from the BOD as they know this should be staying north with the sale potentially imminent and they are likely fed up with people fabricating nonsense against them so they are hitting back how they can.
BOD have been very explicit on how to value get ball park estimates on this and they released that presentation too showing the increased numbers for us to use for new ball park figures. I think Macs £1.17 serves as a good midpoint between all of the valuations using appropriate methods and like he says, with the improved circumstances that £1.17 just gets more and more likely. We will find out more when the BOD are allowed to discuss more. Run your own numbers with the available data and see.
All IMO. Have a good weekend. See you all next week!
