2 things I can rely to happen...in my 5 years experience here
- GGP continue to rise. Long way to go still. Despite the occasional dip. Trend is upwards.
- The derampers coming out in force with every dip. I just ignore them. My satisfaction comes from them having no idea of a gift horse. Even when its smacking them in their face. And they don't come much bigger than GGP.

Only just seen this.
Apologies for the late response.
My heart sank.
Words fail you at these times.
Everything else gets put into context.
My sincere condolences.
God bless you and ease your heartache.

Work- that horrible necessity has got in the way again tomorrow morning.
Would really apprec a brief synopsis post event. If someone could be so kind.
Kindness seems to be lacking here today. Which is not the norm.
Nice hearing from you Paddy. Not much from you recently. Hope you are well
ATB Greatlanders. Keep calm.

In respect to your question.
Speaking only for myself.
I can honestly say to a very large extent...It was Luck and B*lls/Gut. At 0.0029p there isn't much more. The potential is there but its so far in the distance hardly visible. That's why I have mentioned on several occasions about not being 'risk averse' esp in Aim.. for the big gains. (easier said than done).
Also my initial outlay wasn't as large a sum as you envisaged. Mine was approx £28k.
I did hang a lot on 2 small factors. Multiple licences 100% owned (working on sods law) and Australia a very safe jurisdiction.
This was even prior to my research on GH. Obviously he inspired me to add more under 1p. CEOs esp in Aim companies I find are so important. GH had that knack to lift the sp when it was most needed. He knew how Aim is so inextricably linked to MMs and the criteria they value.
The fact that I was very busy at work during that period made it easier for me to be patient. When NM walked after the EG debacle and we went back sub 1p. I thought let's move onto the next license. Got to hit one. Yes does sound stupid. But I didn't have much alternatives. I wasn't good at trading and didn't have much time for research. But I had an innate belief in GH and the potential he was advocating.
So in a nutshell I got extremely lucky. Because I'm nowhere near the calibre of most of the PIs on here. Infact I'm not even a PI really. My investments are mainly in property. Fortune on this occasion did favour the brave. And how!
For that I'm ever grateful.
I wish you All the best of Luck in your investments. GGP being the best

Firstly I would just like to reiterate once again... my thoughts and best wishes go out to TMT and his family. I don't know any details and its not my place to know either. But 'life changing' sounds tough and everything else gets put into context.

A reasonable amount of euphoria for many of the LTHs here. I'm so pleased. We've come through some dark days. Ably led by GH and CB.
For all the mid to newish holders this journey is far from over. Just do as we continue to do along side you...be patient.

Negotiating a deal under normal circumstances at that level is tough. As a minor its even harder. Balancing ambition with realism. Boldness with submissiveness. All against a mighty power who one still needs. An ally that you don't want to turn away. One is forced to be selective.
It was a long term view of mine that ggp had to be selective in their many great licences. To maximise value, realistically we couldn't keep hold of them all in their entirety. Not as explorers. We just don't have the resources. And we actually don't need that many. Not at our stage. The only assumption is that Scally is as good as Hav or better. Only uncertainty and time fell against the others...I assume.
In the end Partial miners (possibly) with other lucrative assets one being 100% others 25% is putting ourselves in the best possible shop front.
One can hope.
Good Luck All

As you know I don't post much. I don't air my thoughts too much.
You know I'm a great fan of GH. And I have been pondering for quite sometime esp while it was so quiet at the top.
Your 2nd scenario is exactly my line of thought.
To keep Scally off the table would have been incredibly hard. Sandeep is a top exec. GH had to offer something meaningful(but beyond his scope to complete)
Scally is now the key. Its now a slightly longer road for GH. A more meaningful more fulfilling road. I also believe it will still be ultimately a sell off. But now at a different level. Leaving more than one door open.
GH has played this well. Maximising possible potential in a reasonably short timeframe via I believe Scally now. And probably no JV on that. Just a straight sell off entirely at a great price once he has proven it up to a degree.
A benchmark in exploration strategy.

I believe its worth a top up. Av down aswell.
A reasonable risk /reward

Best post of the day so far.
I have for years championed GH. To the point that 'when he goes I will go'. His business acumen in this field (together with CB) and decisions to build GGP and add shareholder value has been faultless.
He has set the new precedent on how to build an exploration company within a handful of years.
His negotiations skills have been on point. You have to give but then take. Sandeep is no mug. To keep scally was a massive coup. I think his balance was as good as we could have hoped.
Great job in my opinion.
Looking good. Just be patient now for the real rewards.

Very rarely do I get annoyed.
But this guy is a true nutcase.
We need to keep reporting him.
Keep ignoring him
Don't respond via his header. He's obviously looking for attention. Sad really. Or lockdown has deluded him.
Lets see what guise he comes as tomorrow.
