I agree AG1989, the RNS reads very much like the Queen's response to La Sparkles and Henry. A bit flat and uh? on first read but when you go at it again and pick into it, it's more cleverly written than you first think.

I broadly agree with your main points, and add to that that ECR are fielding a tiny team. There are probably more boots on the ground than office-based staff and virtually nobody here in the UK. This cost saving is both a curse and blessing it allows for silly spending to be reigned in but it would seem there's a need for some more robust PR.

Having said that, I still don't think he's done much wrong, esp nothing that hasn't been done on AIM before. The additional money is clearly necessary, especially if plans have changed. Things are happening here and it's better than nothing happening. We go into the year and beyond really well funded, and there may be a few surprises along the way, who knows. But that's the risk you take in AIM mining, it can come good suddenly, take an age or never come good.

I just wish people would not treat CEOs as if they were their mates, or that they cared about your trust or your pockets. Ultimately they will do what's best for the company in the longterm, both for its survival and to make it attractive for new blood. Boot on the other foot, Craig isn't going to get many here's loyalty if the sp went to double figs overnight. It could be a lot more in a year's time but the majority here would have bailed by then without a backwards glance at 'good ol' Craigey boy'. So it's pointless getting emotional, it works both ways.

Set your target/s, watch the company carefully, listen, and make your money without emotion. Emotion rules AIM but it also helps ruin it.

I'm not interested in trading this and will have an eye on the future far more.

But a curious pattern I've noticed is it generally opens in the doldrums, drops, then rallies in the afternoon. You can almost set your clock by it lately.

It definitely needs better PR. And the lack of an RNS page here has people batting blind.

Yes but Hoover, things happen. Things can change in business since doing interviews.
The pandemic alone is changing the game as we go forward.

The previous money raised was done so with set plans in mind. The extra funding isn't going to be done to tick people off for ****s and giggles. It's for a reason. We've been here on so many occasions where reasons become clearer with time.

'If ballieston and creswick are multi million ounce resources why are they interested in exploring elsewhere?'

That's not specifically what was said though. There's no reference to exploring elsewhere. If you read the RNS it talks about 'potential new opportunities'. That could be a locally-acquired expansion, something to do with the JV, or something else. It doesn't necessarily mean they're shopping elsewhere.

Asleep, it's fine, you do you. I'm not interested in making things volatile on purpose, not when fund raising is part and parcel of AIM. These are growth companies, and expand and keep up with the asks of them, they have to raise money, sometimes unexpectedly.

AG1989, I've always said that ECR might even go it alone on the other asset. It was never a done deal imo. But then the opposite could be true and money needed for additional proving up of the acreage to lure a bigger fish. Who knows. All should become clear as we move along.

The RNS clearly leans towards another acquisition or need for funds to accelerate something. And in there is a nod towards expanding the team perhaps? So perhaps more to do which need more hands?

Results will be later this month. This is absolutely par for the proverbial at this stage, and does seem as if something incurring additional cost is being eyed up.

You're all speaking as if he's your mate down the pub. He'd not. He's a businessman and he cares not about your personal mortgage being paid off or your wedding funds.

All AIM companies raise funds and at this early stage its no major surprise. Unless you live in happy clappy land where you believe CEOs are your good buds.

We're along for the ride in a minnow minor and there will be these twists and turns. E doesn't need extra money for nothing. Something's changed and perhaps its to shareholders benefit over the long run.

'FAIRLY big discount to share price again small private investor loses out'

They lose out for NOW. But what do people expect of small AIM miners at the start of huge campaigns? None of this is cheap and you have to assume he knows more than us longer term.

The intent is for longterm gain in mining, for shorter term pain. Gervais Heddle had all this stuff prior to pulling it out of the bag. He's not sitting there rubbing his hands trying to be a villain. He's thinking about the long term costs of getting on with this project.

I have to assume that building a mine won't be cheap.

Is a wonderful thing, isn't it, danpoe?

Your's proves that you were already in UKOG anyway since April 1st, in and out, posting breathlessly, ramping when it suited, not just disagreeing but hardcore bashing other posters when you wanted as well, which looks to be a great deal.

If ANA isn't for you, honrstly just go away. Your presence is neither use nor ornament here. Or at least calm down, do some sensible, quiet research and try again in a better frame of mind.

Is there a Fireangel Telegram group anyone know of?

TIA.

Why don't the pair of you stop hogging the board like plonkers and just chill?

It's neither mega pay day nor the end of the world. These shares go up and down. Stop behaving like it's all a new thing and hasn't been done to death already. Either wait for the hope of a JV or don't.

Keep it factual and about the company. Let people learn, not plough through tons of arguments about up and down sps.

Dunno. Hasn't turned up, has it.

Hopefully they upload it tomorrow but perhaps its been cancelled. I think it's just a review, but it'd have been nice to hear his thoughts.

'Mining, According To Clockface', 2021, published by Projection Books Ltd. £5.99 from all good stockists.

I see, fair enough. Can you try not to give me a heart attack next time, though. :)

Can I ask, please, is this based on fact, or is it one of those optimistic statements that should be preceded by:

'I hope for...'

"CBD edibles in the United Kingdom could be ripped from shelves unless manufacturers submit product-safety applications by Wednesday.

Starting April 1, no CBD product on the U.K. market will be allowed to stay there without validation by food-safety authorities.
The Food Standards Agency in London moved to stop the sale of unauthorized CBD foods in 2020, when it said that CBD products already on the market would have until March 31, 2021, to submit a validated novel food authorization application."

"I keep buying low, and selling high on this stock. Do you think it is a good tactic?"

I think that's VERY DANGEROUS!!!!!!!

What a disingenuous character you come across as to me. All smiles on a blue day when it suits and then trashing the life out of something on a down day. Posters like this are a dime a dozen and so unhelpful.

Yes, we know ANA is risky, we know a lot hinges upon the grant of license. We're adults and I know I only have a small holding here, so if it goes wrong, there's not much to lose. I've weighed the risks, thanks.

Don't expect to be a turncoat on here and not get called out for it.

"PLEASE BE CAREFUL PEOPLE...VERY DANGEROUS STOCK"

After "I never sell all of the stock, I trade with around 25% of it. I am confident of their long term success."

You come off as thoroughly devious.

BA, I have to take it that by the talk on Tally forum he's 'looking to list' at above 2.65p. So your claim that 2p is somehow not achievable is arguable. As I say, I would take that. I haven't invested what I can't afford to lose but I would like it back, we all would. Let's just see what April brings because we might get a breakthrough. If this doesn't progress he's in the bad books of his staff, now shareholders, who I'd imagine need to be kept sweeter than us at this stage.
