Ahh yes - good spot. Posts passing in the wind.

Yup nothing but positive so far. Broker ratings were 8pence before the latest expansion news (therefore likely a re-rate)- they can be found here: http://www.digitallook.com/cgi-bin/dlmedia/security.cgi?csi=3213486&action=brokerrecommendations Looking forward to the future of this company :).

Finally for the best summary is to hear from the director himself which was posted yesterday. It's on directorstalk - but you can just look on youtube. Here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNMKTiUUv9o

Just to back this up a little as I know posters aren't exactly the most reliable. Look at the RNS here: Final Results: http://www.investegate.co.uk/finnaust-mining-plc--fam-/rns/final-results/201408260700168753P/ · Successful acquisition of three high grade copper, zinc and nickel projects in Finland by way of a reverse-takeover from Western Areas Limited · Immediate commencement of a 10,300m rolling drilling campaign focussed on identifying extensions from historical mines at each asset · Discovery of a new high grade polymetallic ore lode at the Hammaslahti Project which encouragingly is relatively shallow and proximal to the historic pit and underground drives · Upside potential demonstrated - Board believes that the main Hammaslahti mine structure hosts possibly four separate plunging lodes now open to the north of the old zinc pit with 5.6m at 3.2% Cu and down dip extensions to the south with 3.5m at 11.5% Cu, equating to a 1.8km strike · Proven Board and management team with extensive experience in identifying and developing quality resource assets · Solid cash position of £1.5 million and fully funded for rolling drill campaign

No - not yet - mainly because we don't know how much there is. However, everything is high grade, they have a 100% success rate so far and it looks a large area which is being expanded. The company is fully funded and have a 1.5billion company as a major shareholder who are a producer and are happy to assist FAM. So in summary, so far so good, you can't ask for a better start. There is a high probability they have found something very lucrative. Remember this is gold and silver too with a small market cap. Read the years RNS and the interview with the CEO.

- 1.52% 3.5 to buy - 3 to sell.

Only 11 minutes of trading...give it time - it's obviously a strong buy / hold - if you look into it.

yeah, sure, 11% spread and 14% up on a few crappy trades.....tut tut

A good listen. I like the 1.5 billion "Big Brother" part - It's in their best interest that this goes well. Very excited about this share and the future. Old broker recommendations are indeed 8pence which I'm sure will be evaluated. I see no reason to suggest that this isn't anything but a strong buy / hold. Welcome any counter posts.

Well yeah, perhaps some were a little optimistic with 6pence (heading towards 100% rise in a day) However, this is a sound investment. Fully funded, excellent grades and every hole a success. I expect this to rise over the coming weeks. Lets see what happens.

Yup - plodding along nicely :)

To be fair to Clive his posts do not look like the typical village idiot. The last RNS does say within 28 days which only gives another week. It's been very hard to buy shares here, I personally haven't but I'm watching with interest.

Providing the cash is used to grow the company then this is a short term hit for a long term reward. I think this is a positive step. I wouldn't count on the market re-acting well though, like any placing. Give it a week or two.

There we are folks. All looks very promising. An exciting year.

Commenting on the results Ilika's Chairman, Jack Boyer, said: "The first six months of our current financial year have yielded significant progress. Firstly, global OEMs are actively evaluating two of Ilika's proprietary materials, most notably the fuel cell catalyst material, indicating that Ilika has made strong progress in licensing out its IP portfolio. This commercialisation activity has been underpinned by the further grant of patents in Ilika's key target markets. Secondly, the investment Ilika has made over the last 18 months in solid state battery technology has borne fruit, with Ilika able to declare a "world first" through the production of a battery architecture that can be manufactured as a continuous stack. This opens the door to rapidly growing opportunities to power wireless sensors and ultimately address the world's largest battery markets for consumer electronics through early adoption by the defence sector."
