Ignore it Glock - it's complete rubbish they expire on 31/6/19 so you can exercise them any time before close on that date - no point with an S/P of .53p - cheaper to buy on the market.

There have been many of these sent out and that is why we get silly conversions at a loss!

BPPM is only partially explored - see presentation: http://www.vastresourcesplc.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Romania-presentation-Baita-Plai-and-Remin-05.05.15.pdf

Add to this the fact there are 5 more skarns untouched and the additional area we have access to underground via Baita SA and as AP confirmed, potentially there are several orders of magnitude of existing ore in place.

The copper and gold gets richer the deeper you go at depth - 2% copper 1-4g/tonne gold and 200-2000g/tonne silver

The thing is manaila production means nothing right now, as does PP as we will get no cash from it for another year probably - so the market is incorrect in marking VAST down on good PP results and poor Manaila.

What we should be concentrating on is progress on BPPM and the diamonds as these will probably be generating profits in the H1 2019 and these are going well apparently.

So we have it all short. medium and longer term:

BPPM/Marange - short term and potentially very profitable within 6 months

PP/Eureka - profit centre by end of 2019 early 2020

Zagra - $2bn monster mine 3-5 years

Take your pick either way it looks very cheap at .44p a share and there is so much more potentially

Look at the progress this year - the s/p is unimportant in anything but very short term and is due to market forces not the company's management - we will be back ove .6p very soon IMO and then perhaps the moaning will stop as it is very short sighted!

gkb - some would think he can walk the walk - MercA, Zagra BPPM and licence, Manaila, Marange etc, - what does he have to do to prove it?

We will get Merc B and finance for the diamonds IMO - will tha be enough or does he have to walk on water as well?

Some are never satisfied!

Pistachio, Flybe isn't going into admin any time soon IMO, they have lots of assets to borrow cash on if necessary but thanks for your advice - I look forward to buying in at 9p.

Pistachio, my favourite nuts! no that's' cashews but I do like pistachios - We have all had those moments - those who have long histories on AIM investing that is.

Seriously VAST is a great investment now IMO - DYOR - look at the diamond fields in Zim and the way the ZimGov is looking at investment - Zim needs us badly!

No 10p was a good buy in price - and then you could have made 100% :-)

Clearly there are possible offers to buy Flybe - IMO even if the Virgin deal does not go through there will be other suitors. Flybe is unique - largest local UK carrier - the big airlines will want it as a feeder.

As I said previously the II's bailed and they don't care when they do, they drove Flybe s/p down way below market value.

20p is low ball IMO 40p reasonable and 80p possible

Many have disagreed with the possibility of a 5p s/p for VAST but as Bushveld proves massive gains are possible with good opportunities.

2p to 40p in 2 years - I bet their were Fantasies on that BB saying how crap they were!

If we get Marange and we get 75% for our JV on it and we get freedom to take cash out of Zimbabwe and Zagra JV'd with a major and Remin mines etc. we could easily hit 5p.

It may not happen but it is certainly possible.

The thing is Fantasy Bushveld sums it up 2 years ago 1.5p now 41p - VAST can do this - you just proved my point

Rob, Bushveld shows what is possible - I nearly bought in at 2p and wish I had - no reason why VAST could not do the same

He sure has Fantasy to II's at much higher s/p

Fantasy very few AIM companies s/p has increased in the last month, an AIM investor needs to be prepared for volatility, it is the nature of investing on AIM

You are not getting the point Fantasy - strategically VAST is very strong and we have great assets - quarterly figeres mean nothing longer term than a couple of days.

Fantasy - lost 30% - many AIM stocks are down much more:

RBW 12p to 4.5p

AST .8 to .45p

GWMO .7 to .28

Vast .625 to .41p

Pretty similar I would say - market forces

PP doing very well, Manaila as expected.

We know from past experience unless Q figures are stellar the s/p drops - should it? - not IMO on poor Manaila results.

We know Manaila is not going to be a significant revenue center until we build the Carlibaba processing plant, the new trucks in Jan will help though.

So what has changed since the s/p was .63p on Oct 18th?

Carnage on the markets mainly - AIM especially.

OK Merc B has not happened yet but as Merc A, Merc take their time.

AP has come under much criticism by a few - which is obviously S/P based and IMO totally unnecessary - if we were at .7 he would be a star would he not - AP is a gifted entrepreneur, but he is not a god who can control world markets....yet! ;-)

I find it amusing how investors base their investment decisions on S/P which is highly volatile at the moment - look at the fundamentals, the s/p is unimportant IF the fundamentals are good.

I know I keep harping on about it but we dropped to .1p a couple of years ago! - count yourselves lucky - I was in at 2.3p a year before that! - just making a point we 7 bagged in 6 months from that and we can sure as hell do it again!

OK so to sum up my view on VAST has not changed since AP took over, he is the best thing that could have happened to VAST, he brought us all the assets, (barring PP which took 10 years and $20mil+ to give us eff all so far!).

AP slips on his own timelines on delivery of others, (which are out of his control), but the following prove that he delivers in spades:

Mercuria A, BPPM and association licence, Manaila acquisition, Zagra, Faneata tailings, Eureka and Marange.

I think as long term investors we need to concentrate on the progress of the company not the current market conditions.

That was the share totals from last December to this one - so yes about 600 mil - but to say we have have seen no benefit is IMO not the case - we got BPPM licence Marange, MercA, etc, We are a junior miner expanding into production and not yet profitable overall - this company has been transformed inthe last year - from a terrible position.

The S/P is crazy but it is AIM and we are in the worst crisis in the UK for 40 years IMO

The current market is crap and we are doing better than most AIM junior miners.

Look at the facts - delays are inevitable but AP delivers eventually!

We have much to look forward too.

I still believe we will be mid cap miner in 5 years with the opportunities available.

Would the UK Gov want Flybe to fail right now?

Probably not!

I agree - Flybe provides a service, needed by the regions and to the future productivity of the UK outside the EU - it's a valuable asset to the UK and also to a potential purchaser.
