The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring financial educator and author Jared Dillian has been released. Listen here.
Now now Winni. Please check back to who said the 2023 fund raise was rather at risk if the Doc or Pension Fund did not subscribe. Remind me - did they ?
Good that TB appreciates they are working hard on a deal. About time they worked hard on something dont you think .... I mean, so many years working on so many different options and here we are, ground hog day .....
Nervous - well only the stupid ones are not nervous. Right Brad ?!
Terrafin - what is your source of cement cos switching away from flyash? This is imo the critical success factor for pozzolan ahead. And therefore important to Sunrise.
Oohhhhh sounds like the lads here are getting a tad nervous about 'sealing the deal'. Everyone except Brad of course.
And where that that debenture note holder rank v the convertible notes already held by Doc and Pension Fund?
It will be a complete sale of the CS project. Sunrise team bring nothing to operationalising the deposit so why have them still involved. Maybe the price will include a net royalty - but I reckon the Buyer has pretty much all the cards on this one.
Does PC take fees from Sunrise? If so, compare those to the cost of this top up.

And there was me thinking Tlou management were the only ones that could talk a great game. My goodness, what a lot of hot air.
They are back to behaving at their disingenuous worst - only 1 sentence in the RNS really mattered. The rest is usual corporate speak to make everything else sound bigger than Ben Hur.
In addition, the Company is in discussions with several strategic parties to secure the remaining funds required for project completion.
Let's hope its as easy to find the remaining money in as light a way as they make it sound. Otherwise - 'project completion' - now there is a thought.
Welcome back to this board Clueless. Took me a while but the penny has dropped. I see you have not learned any manners in the interim.
You are better than this HB. Surely.....
Good man Free - keep the tweets coming. How is the fund raise from local Bots investors coming along?
The irony is entertaining
I really don't know when you guys are going to catch up - but it sure doesn't seem to be any time soon.
Ha ha ha ha - thud.
Enjoy the action - surely to goodness, everything that could go wrong has already gone wrong for Tlou.
A test for me on whether real or illusion is going to be the number of obvious pump posters that mysteriously appear on this board.
Part of me thinks that entire interview was simply far too smooth a smooching exercise. But let's hope there is real substance behind all the nice words - as he said, news will flow relatively soon.
Botswana is being seen as 'blue sky' potential where they need to go out and 'drill drill drill'. As he said, where they are going next is greenfield exploration ground - and he sure was putting the responsibility to target the right areas to drill onto Dave Catterall. But then the same Dave was the guy responsible for deciding much of the previous drill programs, so he is fallible. (I follow another company in Botswana where some mug-punters swear blind in the brilliance of the CEO and they wont countenance anything but success by him.)
So Botswana is going to spend money for the next couple years for sure. That means Zimbabwe needs to start generating cashflow reasonably soon ie next 6 months or so. If not, then BT may get the opportunity to see if Purebond is as financially supportive as he would like us all to believe today.
Maybe I missed it - did he say what type of mining technique they are using in Zimb? Bulk processing through plant owned by who ..... or nugget detecting (surely not) or heap leech (wont be their own plant i dont think) or .......
Where does the revenue come from - certainly nothing copper related. That will take years and money to drill and prove up to a resource/reserve. And anyways, then they would look to sell it. So revenue can only come from gold in Zimb - well ok the prospect of significant gold discovery / extraction can super charge a share price. But who is going to believe that means they are on a mother lode of golden or silvery stuff ...... The more he behaves like a pump and dump CEO, the less credibility KAV projects imo.
Yup lift off is just around the corner. Bring it on. Tony knows what he is doing. So does Brad. How could we not all end up multi gazillionaires.
In that case, what goes around comes around
Classic - the share price is where it is not because of delays. FFS.
Classic - imho the project is progressing perfectly. FFS.
Classic - we are within weeks of ..... which is where TG expected to be yonks ago.... FFS - stupid.
Classic - imho the project is entirely on course and self financing will make getting finances on secured loans much easier if .... Hmmm how long until is self financing?
Classic - in short, Tlou are on course and the only thing that is damaging them are those recent placings which dragged the share price ....(down). Eeerrrr they still need a lot of money to complete this stage.
Classic - had it not been for covid ....
Classic - covid is the main reason and misfortune from us having too many prats holding shares with Parkinson's disease.
Well this has just got to be the best and wierdest and most crazy collection of mumblefcuk i have ever had the pleasure to read. What a total hoot.
So they are first past the post - what will that have achieved for them?
Hypothetical question for you - Sekaname has a 6MW PPA. Their MD said they can connect to the grid quite quickly (I take that to mean thye dont need to build a 100km transmission line (but surely they will need build one sub-station at their site). What is Sekaname have 50m shares in issue. Or 100m shares in issue. Or maybe they have only 10m or 20m ..... We have no way of knowing. Well, you guys have no way of knowing :-)
But my main thought reading your post Winni is - you have forgot about the A$5m convertible note issued to the Doc accruing interest at 10 per cent (presumably) compound interest. Pension Fund also have their convertible note for US$5m at 7.5 per cent. So plenty of debt on the balance sheet at high coupon convertible into shares at 3.5 cents = lots and lots more shares issued come the day of conversion.
And then they need at least another 10m cash to finish the proof of concept which they hope to raise from local Botswana sources. That is probably going to be via convertible note as well. If the lender or lenders is not Pension Fund, then there will be a big bun fight over which note holder has priority over the Doc and Pension Fund. In short, this current fund raise from sources in Botswana is by no means going to be easy to arrange.
Or the alternate view from Brad - there is any number of people happy to replace TG and buy all his shares because the Tlou opportunity ahead is so compelling. Then again, he didnt know what a HNWI so why be surprised by anything anymore.
Classic. Mind is closed to any possibility that Tlou simply isn't the 'greatest thing since sliced bread'.
NP - I like it. Someone prepared to say openly that Tlou risk is anything but mitigated. The transmission line will work; generators running on gas to generate electricity will work; gas gathering systems ay surface and stripping and cleaning the gas will work; so the only thing left to tick is security and consistency of gas supply. Yes, gas supply for 2MW should not be a big drama; hopefully neither is 10MW. And if Tlou gets to that level of consistent power generation, then AWESOME because the proof of concept will be proven. Scaling up to higher levels then becomes front and centre - and withing that, so does gas composition since low levels of methane means additional and possibly significant extra costs. But that should wash through for large MW of power generation - but Tlou is how many years away still from large power generation. By then, there will be 2 billion plus shares in issue. There is No Getting Away from the number of shares issued by Tlou and TG - yet all here are seemingly incredibly accepting of their investment of 5+ years ago being washed and rinsed until there is no colour left.
As Brad always says - in TG we trust. Idiot !!
