Buythose, you make some very good points! Not least: "cheer up"! However, you slightly misrepresent me not that it matters much in the grand scheme of things. I had been invested in ORR for several years before I lost patience recently and bailed out with a 22% profit on the shares I was holding at the time. However, back in 2021 I sold some ORR and banked a 164% profit, again in 2024 a 131% profit and even as recently as October 2025 I banked a 67% profit.

Something has gone badly wrong with ORR if we're all agreed it's very undervalued yet, at the moment, it's a terrible investment and that's after the end of the Lanstead deal which was supposedly a millstone around ORR's neck and yet, for some of the time, it was working in ORR's favour. I won't darken the towels here again until after I've reinvested which is subject to my other holdings hitting the jackpot. In some ways, GEO is even more puzzling than ORR.

GLA & Happy New Year!

"The weakness in this price is baffling. Can buy billions but sell very few. " A very belated welcome to the World of ORR GoldGeezer, still as unpleasant as ever! I hope you've learned something. Despite YankeeDoodler's scepticism this has to be a good investment at some point but is it worth the effort? Over the past year major goldminers have more than doubled in value while ORR has gone nowhere despite its golden future. EDV up 177%! And now in a JV with EST which really is very undervalued! GLA + Merry Xmas! And please don't tell me to "jog on!" Try to think of something more earthy!

It means: "(of a person or their language) direct and uninhibited, especially about sexual subjects or bodily functions" Do your best! I note Eileen's other company is up 160% over the past year.

Merry Xmas to all of my reader!

"The discrete magnetic feature at Juno is approximately 5km x 5km in size. By way of comparison, the discrete magnetic target at Havieron is 1km x 1km in size currently 8.4Moz AuEq." I make that 25x bigger!

"The market can remain irrational for far longer than investors can stay solvent" - assuming the jigsaw is finally completed in early 2026, what can we expect the SP to be?

Typical idiotic response to your perfectly sensible posts. No worries. I'm just wondering if you have an opinion on GEO?

Should've followed your own advice (but I know how hard it is): "Is there bad news waiting . I think so , if you haven’t sold and cut your losses , do do before it’s too late . STRONG SELL" After what's transpired "do do" is very appropriate! I was interested to read that you "met Jay in London , he is a nice guy but is very tired and deflated ." We forget these companies take their toll from everyone involved. My history is, as far as I can recall, I bought PANR in 2023 after it had plunged for some reason then bailed out with a 57% loss before it septupled! Pay more attention at the back of the class!

I wonder how much money has been lost following that advice!

In January I want to see ZPHR # 1 Top Riser after announcing very good news! Don't care about 20p - 10p is good enough!

Futsal: I find your comment offensive so be prepared for an expensive court case! That was supposed to be a joke but these days who knows? There's nothing wrong with former ZIOC investors commenting - anyone is welcome to comment! The usual response to ex-investors is "Jog on" but, obviously, it's not that simple. Admittedly, some ex-investors can be vexatious and we must allow for rampers anxious to discourage negative comment of which a few have disappeared from this board after discovering they're flogging a dead horse. They do cursory research and plunge in - I'm meeting them on the ORR board where I have temporarily exited being an investor and suddenly my views are worthless! Even though I've stated I'm keen to reinvest - it makes no difference. Sensible investors listen to punters who have sold - it might tell you something! I can see the yawns already but ZIOC has always been a binary bet and it still is! If it's never developed the shares are worthless. If it is developed place your bets! Anything but ZIOC ploughing their own furrow, please! C'mon - a world-record takeover offer based on multiples of the SP would be wonderful news! And life-changing for all LTHs and I can't see the new overlords complaining either! What's the problem - everyone is then free to invest in New Zanaga. Traded in my 2010 one-owner Panda for a 2015 two-owner Panda in immaculate condition. The next day it broke down! Par for the course but I received exemplary service from the dealer who collected it and returned it the following day in full working order. We'll see. Property-wise, it's impossible to identify anything I can afford post-jackpot but I'm looking at properties assuming Zanaga is taken over for at least 160p and that would be very cheap! And it has to be not far from Chelsworth - famous for the eternally unwell Jeffrey Bernard who had a cottage there further away from the pub than I would be comfortable with yet he also used to walk to Bildeston.

Apart from eggs in baskets wouldn't that £200k be better invested in EST, surely a future billion pound company?

I wonder what they paid! Timing is everything.

Usual SP behaviour from ORR - I feel sorry for the spiked new investors. One day the SP will not behave as it always has. Meanwhile wolfie868 appears very sensible while it's obvious GoldGeezer never bothered to do his research before attempting his foolish ramps. At the same time, other so-called multi-bagger miners are also struggling. Only reasoned response is to stick to fundamentals which makes ORR and EST both screaming buys. The jury is still out as regards GEO.

Bitcoin's price never topped $1 in 2010 - its highest price for the year was just $0.39! 2010 is the year in which the famous purchase of two Dominos pizzas for 10,000 bitcoin took place. It's risen 416% over the past 3 years but is down 18.4% over the past year which is far less than BTC's 86% plunge. Does that make BTC a highly-geared bet on bitcoin reaching new highs?

Vinanz listed on 13 January 2025 with a market capitalisation of approximately £40 million. So it's currently down 86%! Perhaps it's time for the CEO to open his wallet? Lenigas & Edelman each own over 14% of the company yet Rattray, disappointingly, appears to own no shares. Doesn't he think he's worth investing in?

Mkt. Cap. now below NAV as far as I can tell. If they keep mining bitcoin and adding to their hoard and the price of bitcoin rises maybe the SP will re-rate?

Who'd believe it?

"Not guilty!" I blame FOMO - I would've been devastated had I sold the day before it multi-bagged. But what were the chances? In mitigation, I have traded part of my holding recently and I own fewer shares than I used to but it's still over 50% of my PF. Good luck allthatguff!

"If you know nothing about investing in individual shares it is not the time to start when you are retired, unless you have oodles of money to lose as part of a past time or hobby. Get professional advice and invest in funds or such like." What depressing advice! Reminds me of Q. "How do you make a small fortune on the Stock Market?" A. "Start with a large one!" It can be incredibly satisfying investing in multi-baggers - get it right consistently and you'd be the richest man in the world. I wouldn't dissuade anyone from investing but it is high-risk. Get it wrong too often and you're wiped out. As for funds, most underperform so trackers are a safer bet but you're never going to hit a jackpot and I'm a jackpot-hunter so I'm invested here and also in BTC, GEO, LOGP, NTVO, PYX, TOM, ZIOC, ZPHR. GLA!

Welcome aboard! I thought your question was perfectly reasonable! Why would a warrant-holder sell out at the earliest opportunity if the SP was in an extremely positive upward trend? I don't know. If you've arrived here as an investor you can safely ignore most of the "advice" - you're doing OK as you are! EST is one of those shares where it's very tempting to sell everything else and bung it all into EST - what could possibly go wrong? Stay sensible - spread your risk - don't get emotionally attached - it is never wrong to bank a profit (but don't do it too soon). And, of course, learn from your mistakes!

Lastly, the Market can stay illogical for far longer than you can stay solvent so only risk money you can afford to lose and don't need in a hurry. Good luck!
