I totally agree Richyf3. This should be at 10p now with all this news about the price of tin.
After all it was nearly that back in June when the tin price was a lot lower.
I hope this gets to somewhere around that before any partnership annoucement to be honest as that should see it fly
Where do you get this "feeling" from nesty?
I for one am pretty upset about this being November and the promise was for September - even more upset about not being kept up to date with the reasons for the delay.
Our CEO rarely seems to put a foot wrong and is always quick to get news out - so what has gone wrong here?
I have 500,000 and I am getting nervous. Fortunately my average is in the 4's but I am watching this very carefully
CC -
From the most recent ATM RNS:
"The Company believes that the concentrate is also potentially suitable as feedstock for lithium refineries producing lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide for the battery manufacturing industry."
A lot of water has gone under the bridge since your "historic" RNS.
You need to keep yourself up to date.
What is the Fair Price of ATM when looking at its future cash flows?
£6.70 per share
Company Financials plus two analysts - Hannam & Partners, Stifel
I always knew that this company was a good buy but I never expected such a high predicted future value
Goaty, take a good look at my post.
It is not the complete article but a set of bullet points from the article.
Now tell me (without referring to some nobody called Bernard) exactly which of the points raised is not true.
I did a lot of research into batteries before I became an investor and I cannot see anything incorrect about any of it.
Obviously I do not have the hindsight of Bernard
Come on.. you have an awful lot to say lets hear what you actually think about VRFB's in regard to the Times article.
You seem like an expert so which parts are bull to you?
What follows are quotes from an article in the Times yesterday:
"Renewables can generate cheap electricity, but a big bugbear is what happens when the wind doesn't blow and the sun is not shining.
One solution is batteries. The usual Lithium -ion battery, however, is expensive and has a limited lifespan because it corrodes.
Imagine a battery that is cheaper, safer, reliable, lasts far longer without degrading, can store energy for long periods without damage and can be made into a huge storage centre.
This is no pipe dream it already exists even though its unfamiliar.
It is called a vanadium redox flow battery and it does not degrade, charging and discharging hundreds of thousands of times with high efficiency.
Even after 20-30 years of use it can be easily recycled or refurbished, which means it could last almost indefinitely if well maintained.
With such a long life it works out much cheaper than other options in the long run.
For power grids and especially for the intermittent supply from renewables such batteries are ideal.
In fact they are being installed on the scale of megawatts in Chinawith the largest supplying 400 megawatt hours, enough for the demands of 200,000 people for a day"

This will also be posted on the IES bb
HMHG do you even know why the regulation for the strength of steel was introduced in China?
It is highly unlikely that your imaginary industry expert said that.
unless, of course, he/she doesnt know either.
Your constant and obvious attempts on this bb are bordering on ridiculous.
You need to stop you are making a fool of yourself
Larger, pilot scale lithium metallurgical testing, which will also produce samples for potential offtakers, has commenced, with first results expected in first quarter 2023
results from laboratory metallurgical test work with Nagrom to produce battery-grade lithium hydroxide expected in third quarter 2023.
A lithium pilot plant for bulk processing ore - construction completed second quarter 2023
A full-scale, integrated tantalum separation circuit is progressing to construction phase, with long lead items ordered and construction scheduled to complete in second quarter 2023.
First production of tantalum concentrate is expected by third quarter 2023.
Due a serious re-rate this year

"The froth comes if/when they replicate the tin story with lithium.
Viljoen has changed the name to reflect that the Lithium here is far more important now than the tin.
It is now a Lithium mine that has tin as a by product. The future price of Lithium is what will decide the SP.
If that is not the case then why the name change?
We just need the price of tin to stay were it is (or higher) to give time to get the Lithium to the offtakers and generate a revenue stream. I have no doubt that this will happen in 2023.
3 separate analysts are predicting 22p for 2023.
I think it is sure to be way more than that
