Gordon Stein, CFO of CleanTech Lithium, explains why CTL acquired the 23 Laguna Verde licenses. Watch the video here.
"Overall, silver demand exceeded silver supply in 2023 for the third consecutive year, resulting in a structural market deficit of 184.3 Moz."
Can someone explain to a thicky how this is possible.
It's possible because the silver price is too low, and this low price does not provide enough incentive for miners to invest in producing more silver. The price of silver is low because it is determined by 'paper futures trading' and not by the fundamentals of supply and demand.
Apologies if this has been posted before. It's a link to a video of people in China buying gold on Feb 14th (which, of course, is Valentine's Day and the fith day of the Luna New Year, so a 'special' day to buy gold). However, it does demonstrate the high level of demand for gold in China.

Alan,
You gave out your e-mail address on a previous post as you said that you were in private contact with some on the board. Would you be kind enough to provide it again as I'd like to contact you offline?
Regards,
Chris.
I was watching one of my favourite Youtube channels 'Trent and Allie' (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-n3ecA-LOQ&t=1s)and who should pop up at the 1min 20s mark as this week's sponsor but Seed promoting their probiotic DS-01, which includes LPLDL in the Cardiovascular Health Probiotic Blend (https://seed.com/daily-synbiotic).
Alan,
What about a Skinbio AND Opti takeover? With an Opti takeover you'd get an established business with 1st gen products at the level of operational profitability, with the potential of the 2nd gen products, especially Sweetbiotix. It only needs a small team to run it as it's basically a royalty collecting business. And then you get your 20% of Skinbio without the need for the agreement of anyone.
I've just received a reply from SA regarding the number of probiotics/strains of bacteria in Axisbiotix-PS:
"In response to your question we initially began with 6 strains of bacteria. There was some replication in ability and functionality therein, a sort of "belt and braces" if you like. Further laboratory analysis allowed us to remove 2 of the strains and settle on a final formulation of 4 strains as shown on the packaging. This is the final formulation that has been commercially released and that which we have applied for patent."
Thanks AS,
Yes, he definitely says 6 in the interview. But the ingredients on their FAQ page says this: (https://axisbiotix.com/pages/faqs)
Ingredients:
Maize Starch, Maltodextrin, AxisBiotix-Ps Complex, Potassium Chloride, Hydrolysed Rice Protein, Magnesium Sulphate, Manganese Sulphate.
The AxisBiotix-Ps Complex:
Bifidobacterium animals
Levilactobacillus brevis
Limosilactobacillus reuteri
Lactococcus lactis cremoris
AS,
You wrote, "Axisbiotix is a blend of 6 live bacteria ". Do you have a link to where it says that it is 6 bacteria. My understanding is that it's 4 bacteria as per this article. https://www.cosmeticsdesign-europe.com/Article/2021/11/12/Probiotic-supplements-in-beauty-targeting-psoriasis-acne-and-oral-health-with-research-and-innovation
"I suspect that you'll find that SBTX/Axisbiotix are paying for what is advertising on the NPF site"
They still facilitated it, which is a form of endorsement so would be considered 'pro'.
Rebarm, I actually messaged them about Axisbiotix earlier and got this reply.
"Hi Chris. Firstly, I’d like to apologise for our delay in getting back to you and thank you for reaching out to us. We are always pleased when a new treatment becomes available for people with psoriasis and increases the options that are available.
The use of probiotics to manage skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema is still under review, and as yet we do not have adequate evidence to support or recommend a specific probiotic. We do know that our gut microbiome is important for our overall health and is likely to be important for our skin health too.
Whilst we do provide information on new and existing treatments available on prescription through the NHS, it is our policy not to promote or endorse any particular product for the treatment of psoriasis, such as AxisBiotix.
I hope that is helpful,
Best Wishes, "

Posted by someone called Chrissy. I wonder who that might be?
I've been monitoring this video on Twitter. It's surpassed 1000 views in a little over 3 days. In my opinion this is quite remarkable and may be for one, or all, of the below reasons:
1) Shareholders in SBTX (both current and potential) are viewing the video.
2) People are interested in what Mo has to say about painting.
3) People are interested in Mo's experience using Axisbiotix as a treatment for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.
I'd say some of the views are related to 1). Very few of the views are because of 2) as she hardly talks about painting. I would therefore surmise that a large number of views are people showing interest in Axisbiotix and that interest in the product is more than the recent share price movements suggests.

I think people are missing the point a bit with focusing on the number of subscriptions as such at this early stage. The focus should be on the 'rate of growth' instead, to determine the effectiveness of the marketing strategy. Let me explain:
The key to understanding the marketing strategy is Stuart's remark, "psoriasis sufferers talk to psoriasis sufferers". The expectation is that new subscribers become 'product ambassadors' who in turn generate new subscribers. The important figures then are the 'conversion rate' of subscribers to product ambassadors and the numbers of new subscribers each product ambassador introduces.
Assuming this strategy is effective, and I think it will be, the problem is, is how to manage this potential exponential growth. It could easily get out of control and overwhelm the supply and distribution side of things. Hence the 'circuit breakers' every 25,000 subscribers. It's a marketing strategy of 'arrested exponential growth'.
Thus Key Performance Indicators should be the percentage of new subscribers that become product ambassadors and the number of new subscribers they introduce.
I've just received the below e-mail as I am already registered. It's on!
Dear customer
Thank you for registering your interest to purchase AxisBiotix. Below is a link to the website ahead of its formal launch tomorrow, together with an additional subscription discount code - only valid for 48 hrs and only for those who pre-registered.
Please be aware that at the moment we are only selling in the UK and US.
SUBSCRIPTIONS
We hope you would like to subscribe straightaway and benefit from additional savings. This also saves you having to remember to re-purchase and risk running out. You can always cancel your subscription at any time. Whilst you can set up an account after you have purchased, it might be a good idea to do that first (click the head & shoulders logo in the top RH corner).
There are two subscription options;
A 28 day subscription which benefits from a 12.5% discount. Choose this option and we will automatically send you an additional box for free with your first order and we will skip your second month payment (you don’t need to do anything more than sign up).
A 56 day subscription. This benefits from a 15% discount and reduces your shipping costs (to UK £6/US $9.50 every 8 weeks). Choose this option and we will automatically skip your second payment (so you're receiving 4 boxes for the price of 2).
If you’d prefer not to subscribe at this stage and just want to make a single purchase initially, select 2 boxes as a ‘one-time purchase’ and apply the code (xxxxxxxxxx) at checkout.
From the Axisbiotix Facebook page:
"For those of you wondering how much the Axisbiotix-Ps food supplements cost, here's our pricing and a special offer of 2 boxes for the price of 1 on your first order so you can see the effect it has on your #psoriasis for yourself before buying more"

Skid,
He's misunderstood either Q5 or the response to Q5 to SOH's recent investor update. Question 5 was about asking SOH's views of TW and Elric's interviews with Stuart Ashman being public or private, and would 'public' interviews attract more investors than 'private' interviews. It seems that someone posting a genuine question about a public relations strategy is somehow 'hatred'.
