We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
Having already taken my entry, ave 1.6p built up between 2015 and 2020), the the bulk pf several million shares seem set to pay well.
Patience.
Capex, nearly double, no issue. Of course plant needs to be bigger, due to sheer volume to process.
At 87% Recovery rate about the same.
Basically Racecourse will return Capex and probably similar quantity of Cu/Ag to eva over the initial 6-8 years, rather than 15 years, from near surface higher grade material, it is unlikely we have pierced all the higher grade zones, or thickest areas of high grade within the deposit either.
I find following article interesting, though there are no specifics, it nicely debunks the grade is king philiosophy, when it comes to copper.

Another error, talks about in the last quarter, when i think means 3rd quarter, the other skewed thing is POG, as the dollar/pound rate is 1.13 against ave 1.4 over seveal years now, I guess we can expect Q3 in a few weeks, and that should be much better, ref comments in the pod cast last week.
I won't be their, in the past Colin has been very fortcoming with answers, please give him my regards, still heavily invested in the project
I wonder about Charles though, noticible by his absence from chat boards for months now, I hope all is ok with him, if he is there, please also give him my regards.
My regards to all other attendees, I really would have liked to be there, hopefully I can catch up on any news tomorrow
I would imagine most of us are
JS I fewl sure had situation in Ukraine not occurred we would be in a very differentnplace now, afyer all he keeps saying it is far bigger than any of them ever imagined, I won't be able to attend AGM this year unfortunately, but suspect from what was said last year, this is bigger than they were expecting at that time......
After all Colin did also say, no news is good news....
Odd seeing trades here?
Luckily, refurbisment of house completed last month, I was fortunate, and can now sit and wait, still holding 80% of my original holding, others may have shorter term needs and be frustrated at current prices, at these levels, I can now afford to resume accumulating.
Somewhere, in one interview, I got impression that once conceptual pit was made, and that plan for further near surface drilling would be included, but that that could be part of the decision to mine package, NOT that we necessarily have to drill it ourselves, it would be on a plate for whoever took it off us?
Did anyone else get this inferrence, but it has been my understanding for a long while?
The cross sections seem to show currently undrilled high grade zones above the known intersections, I wonder what the basis is for these seeming assumptions? It would of course make a huge difference, if actually proven, we do know there are areas with near surface mineralisation that has been drilled?
So how about Colin, feeling down and out due to SP being what SP is, in last interview, he again said that the resourse is far bigger than they ever expected, saying that won't lift the price, but once numbers are finally released they may be quite nice. My hope anyway, world events dont help, plus summer time always drifting prices, bods need cash for holidays etc.
At least the extension is finished no need to sell any any time soon, time to sit on hands again.
Anypne heatd from CE recently, he has gone very quiet?
I have finally finished bleeding XTR shares for cash to pay builder, (1.5 million sold since January), only retention to go and that will come from wages. Still holding around 6.5m XTR, with no intention of selling any, it really would have been nice had a rerate happened sooner, very poor timing on my part, but it is done
AS
I was referring to a drill rig on a truck, for drilling out samples. See website, Manica Project July 17 pic 10/10, I remember Colin talking about this being ours, either at investor show or an AGM?
I believe XTR have/had their own drill rig down in Manica, there used to be a picture of it somewhere on the website, or at a presentation,Colin has often mentioned further exploration at Manica, actually it was mentioned to use excess cash from the raises last year, can be something going on we do not know about...
I liked yhe bit where 600-900k per month after expedature from Fairbride wasmentioned.
I agree, lots of news still to come, and Moly again mentioned, you cannot hope to hit the best bits with just 6 holes.
Certainly indicated 2nd phase will be extended and include a couple of holes into foot rot.
Liking yhe foot rot
Could be construed as imminently
AA have a take it or leave it choice once Xtract declare the tonnage/intent, and must respond / make thier 1 time offer within a very short time frame, there after if values differ too much it goes to independent fair proce valuation, a process that takes up tp 10 business days.
This is why I believe that XTR are at this time putting together the necessary proof required to trigger the talks with AA, at whatever tonnage it will be. The decision to mine will be based on renewed mining scenarios NPV, with initial higher grade stage followed by the, 'churn', to well beyond many of our lifetimes, as other targets are proved and added.
Must be remembered from early 2021, Colins, other statement, that "No news is good news", followed soon after by an RNS stating the drill rig had a problem.
He has also made mention a few times of needing to pause and take stock.
News of comissioning at Fairbride would be very welcome to tide us over, I believe that should be a cut and dried case and due any time now.
