There is a long, long way for CTL to go yet. People may well be looking at stocks which are offering more immediate returns. Many LTHs are still well under water..
Yes, finally..... Good fortune to those of you LTHs who I recognise having had banter with. I will watch from the sidelines and no more,' hookers and brown envelopes', mutterings.....
MoodyBlue - Quite right! Months ago, on this BB, I also aired my punishing view about the total lack of publicity and public awareness of this great discovery. Alas it was not forthcoming. There should be weekly SML presentations to the financial community and institutions. Not just in the UK, but globally as well! I have no idea what the Chairman’s agenda regarding this issue, but it’s not proactive at the present. Let’s just hope that things improve post MRE. Good publicity would broaden the shareholder base, improve the SP, improve liquidity, and thus benefit all. Other punters views on this concern would be most welcome……..

So, why hasn’t the CEOL been signed off within the last two years?. Management drawing nice salaries, and twiddling their thumbs waiting for the CEOL……….you will see. If it gets signed off this time, then hooray for everybody., If not, you could try to admit to yourselves , why? The SP over the last 2-3 years has said it all for you………..
Canillasboy - You must write what you think. People will debate, criticise, or praise if they think it’s warranted . It’s a free open anonymous forum. Just chill and ignore the flak.
Some of us here - who chat privately as fellow shareholders - are of the opinion that the MRE is well on its way, and will be published a lot earlier than the end of the month. This BoD don’t hang around. The price of tungsten can fall as well as rise, just like all investments and speculations.

Nothing is entirely clear with these South American countries. It is the opaque that gets things moving. Even today, in modern Spain if you have a civil court case, it takers ten years to get to court, unless brown envelopes and favours are passed. ....
Forensic - Your question. I don't know the answer to whether there is such a market presently. However, you put a good case forward. I tend to agree regarding the finance. Also, the big boys have the expertise and experience in such matters. Whereas, this is all new territory for SML's management, despite their doing an excellent job.
As long as the SP keeps on climbing, I'm happy either way, as I'm sure you are....
Canillasboy- You have stated the obvious, (ramp), which we are all aware of…..we really don’t need our hands held. Every day some punter comes out with the same hype…. Spare us please …Have a good weekend. Thank you .

Hammertime - Of course you are very entitled to your view, right or wrong. Time will tell in the case of CTL. This CEOL was supposed to, 'certainly about to happen', two years ago ! Good fortune with your holding....

Like Bolivia, which has vast lithium deposits, it is Corruption and Bureaucracy that holds up progress in these countries. No brown envelopes , no deal.
I believe the CEOL will be held up, yet again, on, 'minor technical details', or whatever they call brown envelopes in that country....
There are some of you that don't agree with me. That's fine . Each to their own view....... The proof is in the pudding..... I am just trading the 9p -11p , 10%-15% moves....
