Whoever made the point earlier about maybe the Sirius Resource Fund may start buying in was I feel much nearer the positive side of the new CEO. Behre Dolbear are more like accountants - and one thing you won't get from accountants is funding - though they may advise potential investors on the merits of potential investments. All just my opinion.

The only reason this shareprice will go up on today's news is if either PI's who don't like Paul Johnson start to buy or because Paul Johnson is/was the seller who has been keeping the shareprice down for the last 6 weeks with the persistent large sells. Either way the SP is still more than 10% down today and will probably fall further before it rises, especially if the seller has gone.

daft You change sides very easily. It was only at 9.09am this morning that you were posting huge quotes from Paul Johnson. Now by 3.09pm you're singing the praises of his successor........

I disagree. Behre Dolbear are an advisory firm producing reports and studies and JORC's for projects which are not theirs at all. That is a long way from the skills required to source and acquire assets in the commodities sector. And they don't have contacts because they are all the time contacted by mining companies that want an independent assessment of their assets.

someone obviously dislikes PJ (it blows hot and cold on the MTR board when his name is mentioned).

Well it sounds like Behre Dolbear are little more than a JORC calculation company..............but as we should all know it is one thing to calculate a mineral resource estimate but quite another to actually go out and source a quality asset - that needs a whole extra set of skills. I feel the loss is greater than the gain here.............................

Just needs a (much) reduced holdings RNS from PJ and his spouse to take this right down..........................

Maybe PJ didn't want the risk of holding all those shares if CAF get suspended - that's if he hasn't sold most of them already (for the same reason)......................

sells are not being shown either..............I know I've sold some..............................MM's'll keep them back and then pretend they are buys in a day or two..............................

and who the hell are Behre Dolbear? never heard of them............................

Maybe it's Paul Johnson and spouse who have been selling for the last 6 weeks or so. They held 6,500,000 as of RNS of 19th December. The selling has been very aggressive so that could be the reason - especially as PJ likes to make a profit from his shareholding/dealing......................

There's the seller again - 200,000 at 3.11p - stopped any hope of a continued rise today.

The seller has to finish at some stage and when they do this will shoot up - at least double and maybe more. The 2 x 400K sells today just squashed any hope of a continue to the rise of the last day or two.

When I bought in here on 3rd Jan I remember noticing there was an aggressive seller around selling 100K, 200K and 250K blocks and I posted about it at the time. That seller is still keeping the SP down here now. BNR has just nearly doubled on their recent Lithium acquisition and this should do the same once the seller eases up.

If the 100,000/200,000 seller who has been holding this back for weeks now does stop selling this will really fly............

4p paid - no rush for RTO as there's still more than 5 months before suspension................

When KOD took on their lithium project the SP 4 bagged over a few days - and then when they drilled the asset the SP 4 bagged again - and all within 4 months................

Long time to go before suspension if no RTO completed. See last para of today's RNS: " Shareholders should note that this transaction, being an investment to secure up to 47.5% holding in USL, does not represent a reverse takeover under the AIM rules. Consequently, China Africa continues to be required to complete a reverse takeover within six months of 11 January 2017 or face suspension from trading on AIM." so effectively okay until 11th July 2017.

According to the RNS 30th December 2016 (see below) they were chasing overpayment of $180Million plus damages to the business so in that context $12 million is not such a good result. "The main arbitration case, which relates to the overpayment of approximately $180 million in Rental Fees plus damages to the business, was heard in London in early July 2016."

I don't know really. It's early days for this share. The SP has already exceeded £2.07 quite easily when peaking at £2.70 a couple of weeks ago and that didn't seem too high at the time. However the pullbacks are still extreme and that unnerves investors a lot. Much depends on how the roll out to new stores and new countries is going.
