Looks a good prospect here - definitely on my short list and undervalued too. Will be strongly considering this over the next couple of weeks as soon as my own cash becomes available. MM's keeping a wide spread too to deter buyers for now.

It was a pleasant surprise to get an email confirming the breaking of 155p at lunchtime and glad to see the RNS pop up shortly after - anyone would think these Directors have advance knowledge of good news - LOL! Interesting and testing times ahead no doubt and I expect holders will have a few shakes soon to see if we're holding tight.

First time in the market for a couple of years and I like the look of this one. Just bought 2,000 shares at 147.2p, so expect this will show as a sell.

The bid and ask price are all over the place this morning. And these tree shakes look like successful attempts to free up shares for big orders to me - whats the odds on some late notifications (either later today or tonight after close) of some big buys this morning?!! Volatile times, but happy days here.

Thats the second company of mine this month thats given out great news very late in the afternoon (rather than at 7am like the rest), only to announce a placing first thing the very next trading day - I'll clearly have to look out for this tactic in future! This was my only concern last night, but as others have said both here and on the iii board, Pala will clearly put this extra money to good use and TXR clearly have an enormous asset there to tap in to for many years to come.

Will do, but as you say, Pala are very astute and they'll handle it right I'm sure. Should be a grand day on TXR tomorrow as others join the bandwagon. Once this late news is digested by the market, I'd be surprised if this 10.75p bid price stays around for long. Maybe we should run a book on what time it'll go in to auction before being re-rated? 8.01am with any luck?! Anyway, I'm off to bed ... big day tomorrow!!!

As we both know, things are looking very positive here ... world quality asset, good people at the helm (now), improving prices in the market place, ramping up production, money in the bank, increased revenues, reduced running costs and now this RNS. For me, its a success story waiting to happen - its just taken a lot longer than I imagined!! The only concern for me on the horizon is this recently passed resolution authorising the company to issue an unlimited number of shares. But then with Pala at the helm, I'm a lot more confident that that will be handled well and that any new income will put positively towards getting at all those assets waiting to be dug up. As with any investment, patience is the key. IMO, this should be a very good multi-bagger over the coming months and years and there are a few here including us two who have shown heaps of patience with this one - lets hope our patience is about to be rewarded!!

I've said it many times before, but its amazing how many times an SP suddenly drops like a stone just before big news comes out - a cynic would suggest that the market makers had prior knowledge of such things to pick up some cheap shares ... surely not?!! I'm sure many missed the late late news today just before closing, but even so, there was plenty of activity in those final few minutes wasn't there? Once everyone's digested the update, tomorrow should see a very bright start indeed.

I did suggest earlier this month that we'd likely see a manufactured drop or a quick increase here if this buyer is still looking to fill their boots with TXR and they look to have gone with the former of late. I reckon that the free float must be almost empty by now, so hold tight here as I think good things are coming IMO.

Well it looks like the price our big buyers prepared to go to has gone up a quarter penny to 11.25p today. Mind you, the MM must be scraping around for shares as I'd have thought all these buys of late would have exhausted the free float by now. Assume we'll see a manufactured drop or a quick increase here one of these days if this buyer is still looking to fill their boots with TXR, so hold tight either way IMO?

More large buys again today. Due another tick up surely if they continue acquiring shares like this and with news, this could well fly. Fingers crossed, but presumably we'll also have an announcement soon about someones increased holding here?

Looks as though its being held back and someone is definitely building up their holding here on the quiet with various big buys going through of late with surprisingly little real impact on the SP. I can only imagine that this will suddenly spurt again once we get some kind of update and so long as another dredger doesn't sink, then IMHO this should only go from strength to strength this year. DYOR of course, but at 6p, this looked a bargain to me a few months ago and even at this SP, it still looks incredibly cheap. Good luck to all holders as usual.

Another good day here. I expect the institutional interest of late will either top up more before Christmas or simply sit back, happy with what they've already got, in anticipation of the increased production levels and metal prices in 2011. Of course, with all that cash to invest, extra dredgers and reduced operating costs too, moving back in to profit next year shouldn't dent the SP too much either!! Its all lining up very nicely here - a happy mid to long term hold now from that undervalued SP of just 6 pence only two months ago. Good luck to all holders here.

These things tend to take a few days before they're revealed and as you say, more RNS's are likely to follow confirming institutional investors taking positions. Very positive times ahead here as others start to see the value.

Posted that at 4.07 and the RNS comes out 7 minutes later at 4.14pm - must be a record?! Still say we've got great times ahead here especially next year.

Mad day here today then? Assume we'll have some announcements about increases and decreases in holdings next week?

Totally agree. Couldn't understand the price 2 months ago, as TXR had practically as much in cash as their Market cap back then. But when you look at their cash position, where they're investing it, the projections for heavily increased production in 2011, the ongoing revenues with increasing prices and market share to come, this really is a 'no brainer' buy and hold for next year and beyond. So many boards you read of people in dead end stocks that have lost them fortunes, yet little gems like these sit here almost un-noticed. As I said in August when it was just 6p, this simply cannot fail to get you a better return than a savings account or an FTSE 250 share for that matter. Yes it'll be played with on and off by the MM along the way, but stick with it and it'll be worth a darn sight more in the coming months IMHO. I'm over 60% up already in 2 months here and fully expect another multi-bagger on TXR with little risk.

Good to see you're still here and looking promising again here isn't it? My main holding in AFC is going mental this morning though!

With these massive blocks of shares being bought at 9p. 9.5 and 9.75p on Friday, someone is clearly acquring a stake here on the cheap for a company with lots of positives moving in to 2011. Maybe its the Government of Sierra Leone bringing their average down?!! For me, TXR is another of those wonderful shares that can move very quickly on quite small volume, so lets hope we see an early tick up this morning and that out 1/4 million buyer returns for lots lots more! Good luck to all holders here.

Someone is building up a nice stake here. Said this was massively undervalued back in late August and only wish I stuck more in at 6p as its certainly proven a lot better than a savings account. Aside from the rise since August, there's clearly something developing here in the last 24 hours and if the buying strength continues, then TXR could go like it did last time and absolutely fly up next week. As with my other holding AFC, it all depends on how well we hold on to our shares, albeit that the MM must have an enormous free float of these after all the sales over recent weeks and months.
