Bit pompous that, Smickster.

I wish you and all SOLG shareholders the best.

I'm sure you can appreciate that as someone who held the shares continuously for 13 years, it's not a case of selling and immediately switching off.

PS - I did have you on filter. You'll know because I didn't respond to you for 12-18 months. I took you off after noticing a reply when logged out.

Smickster - why do you continually confuse objectivity and realism for 'being down'?

I literally said that sales from Tandy would help towards the cost of the block cave?

Precious and hitched to your shares until the very end, Smickster.

... for SolGold?

Don't forget it probably costs another $1bn doing an open cut on Tandy, not to mention the costs of getting to that stage over the next 12 months.

Then there's the extra capital for the block cave at Alpala. Some of this would come from Tandy sales but you could estimate another $1.5-2bn of capital required.

So for any buyer it's about $6bn for Cascabel to get up and running. Then hope like hell that gold and copper prices stay up here for the foreseeable.

Bob - are you sure they can afford $3bn

Nothing will like you taking a dart from the UK after Nige gets in and everything crashes and burns for real.

He'll be a socialist bum scratcher and it'll be glorious.

Bore off Sniffer. You're the one that has sold your stock to plunder it into wheels that will lose value before you drive it off the forecourt.

That's the glass half empty defeatist in the room.

Remember, it's a gold play. The Chinese won't own it. Rowed back on both of those in recent weeks, haven't you?

Do us all a favour and support your local team. You've got the choice of a few.

Monte - wasn't trying to suggest you were being led.

But there's a lot of leading and a lot of following going on right now.

I'm not offering to lead anyone and not telling anyone what they should do. I'm just suggesting folks should be wary.

I haven't Monte, but seeing as you're interested...

I think voting the scheme down is a very dangerous strategy. I think a successful rejection destabilises the company at a time when it will then urgently require new capital.

Arok says the horse hasn't bolted. It has. The time for activism was two years ago when I told you all it was. But you all sat, kept warm by the fuzzy dreamy fantasy ramps of BBG/IP, Fortissimo and others.

It was SolGold who instigated the pub meeting to try and wake some retail from their slumbers.

Beware now of Rodney and other pretenders who appear all knowledgeable. Don't fall for group think where th thought leaders don't know what they're talking about.

Consider the fella you have warmed to on this board. I don't see eye to eye with him on much but he has confirmed he's voting for the scheme. Understand why, get a step ahead on the strategy instead of being led.

Good luck.

Arok - I've shared my thoughts elsewhere.

I have no interest in sharing them here because those who cannot think rationally will have no use for them.

As for no stake - are you Nostradamus?

Arok - I've read some rubbish on these boards down the years but your post at 13:57 is up there.

So you're saying there's no competition for Cascabel because of what... process and procedure? Laughable. Truly laughable.

Stop putting people away.

Haven't you lot learnt anything?

A few no votes from PIs won't topple this scheme, even on a numerical count basis.

I'll be voting yes. This horse bolted 2-3 years ago when you were all so happy for Bob to swing his bat despite my constant warnings. You all rested amongst the warm fuzzy ramps from Fortissimo and others.

Time to lie in the bed that has been made.

I might well sell some Matt. Alternatively I could have my (our) day in court.

When will you be apologising for all the nonsense you have posted in yesteryear Matt, some of which was directed squarely at me?

Even now, after I've called this virtually to the number, you come after my posts. Just a straightforward apology will do Matt.

SoA will sail through.

That's all she wrote. Good night.

Rodney - good to see your position has softened and become more rational than where it was last month. Now reflective of the state of play.

Monte/Damers - re 12:55/13:08

BHP were interested likely until they got involved in Filo with Lundin Mining. They don't need Filo Del Sol and Cascabel.

I wouldn't mind but I have been making these points the last couple of years.

PM - not sure if you've noticed but we've been 28p and odd to buy at times.

Anyone with an interest in upsetting the apple cart should have been buying at 6/7/8p like retail were.

We hold on to hope but it's much much more faint than some would have folks believe.

Rodney - look at any offer for any company ever made. The volume weighted average price is always one of the metrics used to assess the premium being offered. It isn't unusual in the slightest.

It's certainly not buying your ramps when stock is up almost 100% on the year!

Greatland is close to being fully valued at £4bn.

Might buy some if it drops back to 400p

Far far too late to be raising these concerns.

We had two years of being sat at 6p where there should have been significant shareholder activism.

We're a goal down entering stoppage time. The 4th official has added 6 minutes on. Very difficult to win from here.
