BG I do trust the Bod but I have been trying to tell people for a year about how complex these issues are to deal with. At times I've taken flak for my support for the bod but it is not my responsibility or Malcy's to quell the nerves of the shareholders. I do it quite frankly because some people just get too over excited and overreact to minor movement, this in my mind deflates confidence and causes people to bail out, or in the case of those considering buying, being put off by the negativity of the BBs. It is very easy to tweet a simple calming sentence in times of unrest or slipping sp! The sp may not matter to Jay and I understand his aims, but if shareholder needs are not considered then when it comes to raising further funds from them, it becomes harder to obtain and especially when there are, I imagine, a fair few in here who got spiked last year. I take heart from what was said today and we should see comments like these regularly but it should have come from Aminex directly and aimed at its shareholders.

Complex!!! The whole bloody thing is complex as I've been saying for over a year and to me this is what Aminex should be putting out on their own Twitter feed to help prevent the fall of confidence. They should not be providing information to a privileged few. I shall bring this up at the AGM because releases in this way are not acceptable to me, although I'm glad to hear it I am annoyed by it!

Listen MD of TPDC revealing in detail the development of the oil and gas sector in TANZANIA https://youtu.be/GxZUyd6fXaw?t=8m10s Translation of this from Swahilli would be extremely helpful. This interview published 16th May could be very revealing.

I wouldn't call sp since Christmas as a loser because there is little difference and at end of November it was down at 3.26 what I do agree though is that the successes and proliferation of good news has not shown any benefit to us holders yet. Why? Nothing to do with management and the running of the company because I don't see that Matt could have done more in his attempts at promotion. In my eyes, it is more to do with the fickleness of the holders and inclination to following like sheep in blind panic. Along with the Mr 10%s that can't see that holding on for a while will bring talk and interest from a herd who will enable the share to rise significantly. We need volume here and negativity kills it imo. When I looked yesterday afternoon, we had only turned over around 600k shares which is nothing and it doesn't take many trades in that environment to change sp significantly either way and yet to see some comments makes me feel its time to slit my throat. Just have to remember in times when it slips, it is never a loss until t is sold and with the fundamentals we have I'm certainly not going to be worrying

I asked TPDC two direct questions the first about the renaming of NT3 and they answered.... "Yes, Ntorya was the original name but due to geological structure of the reservoir it was agreed to not to name it Ntorya 1/2" "The name Chikumbi was then proposed by Ndovu and agreed by both parties" Secondly "Thank you very much that is really appreciated. Do you have any idea when the licence is likely to be issued?" TPDC reply.... "No idea, issuance of licence is a regulatory matter that is outside TPDC mandate" There you go straight from the horses mouth on 15th April, well after they had approved the application up to governmental level.

Like I've said before BG one question leads to another and as they are now applying for completely new licence who's to say it will still be 15% fact is we are left guessing right now. Btw as I understand it if they take 15% then they have to contribute to get it however as Pete I think has said in the past it's unlikely money would've changed hands in that way (I think that was in regard to a conversation about KW)

We are in the main all decent people Jonah and it is our own personal situations needs and anxieties that set us apart. I fully understand everyone's frustration when things go wrong it is natural but business does go wrong it is just like life it's how we deal with it that matters. Human trait is to blame and take it out on others and the imported ambulance chasing society we now live in shows it clearly. At the end of the day Matt wants to earn a shed load of money just like all of us investers. He will be just as bitterly disappointed as all but the shorters were, so I just don't see the point in attacking the guy. For me when one guy in my team goes down we all go down, so it's time to rally the troops and make sure we all get to our destination safely. Wallowing in self pity just leaves us open to attack and further failure. By all means have a moan and chunter to yourself, I do. You should hear my language when I hit my thumb with a hammer but it wasn't the guys fault who made the hammer or nail :0))

Agree with all but I understood the 8" pipeline has been put forward as a result of the io study. Do I think they would approve a speculative scheme on oil production? Hard one to answer. As it's in the public domain they know it is an intended target and so they will no doubt have an eye on that ball. It is another reason to support your earlier theory and my reason why they are playing hard ball where we think that they will be insisting Ch1 being drilled before granting the licence, however your recent tack on their possibly being two separate licences would seem to crush our views. We really are like dogs chasing out tails trying to second guess all this because we can all find so many plausible reasons for this that and tother and it would be just typical for a surprise to come out of the pot somewhere along the line. I can't wait for the AGM to get a few things out in the open but even then I'm wary that if things are not complete they will not reveal no matter how uncomfortable it becomes for them. Personally I don't expect the hear anything new in RNS before then unless they announce the rig tendering and potential spud date as a sweetner prior to the meeting and if it is we are not then told more at the meeting, then I will see it as just that, an understandable but deliberately timed sweetner.

Pete if we do come up with oil you can bet your life Tanzania will know what to do with very quickly. The gas position is much different as it needs massive investment to export and that's why we are waiting for their infrastructure growth whereas oil can go out in crude form, one ship after another I would think much cheaper to set up with a pipeline to a tanker dock.

There you go then Jonah that makes two of us. I consider myself a small time investor too. A working class blue collar apprentice was my start in life and I'm trying to improve my pension too. Btw I have never called you a ramper. I call you the exact opposite because all I have ever seen from you is stock bashing. After your bashing of Aminex I blocked you for board bashing, I know you did it on solo and I've witnessed you now doing it to Ntog on here and as shown on twitter. Always blaming the Bods. It doesn't sit well with me because I take responsibility for what I do. If I'm not happy I'll sell up but personally with respect I don't see the mentality in attacking a share that you are invested in. Even if you thought you was you wouldn't go public and say you were the most unreliable program dealer in the country because you know it would damage you so why damage the value of the stock you hold. I'm sorry but to you or anybody that does that, I just can't get my head around it!

I would have thought that Aminex would be trying to use the term hydrocarbons as a cover all but I'm sure Tanzania will want oil development treated differently. Yet more questions and still no answers lol

I've never found a chemist assistant be that obliging cp

Well willow I took my first investment sub 1p and bought all the way up to 6.1 Without doubt there was a pump n dump here last year from Degsy and chums but there is a spike with most drills. Will we see 10/20p you ask? I have little doubt that you will see those sort of figures if patient enough to hold. If I wasn't so sure and held as many negative views about a company that you do, I would jump ship but you already did. Actually reading your often negative comments about Aminex I wonder why you are holding Solo when many comments seem to say how reliant you are on Aminex as shown when we get blamed for their woes. Don't get me wrong I like solo and at the recent 3p level I was cursing not having spare money because I want to be in for helium. To be in it purely for Ruvuma would be just like putting all eggs in one basket that's why I felt it best to be with the operator.

That's the way I see things Weyland. I celebrate when I win but I don't cry when I lose. (Well publically anyway) :-)) It is the risk we take

Max I think the market view is dimmer than our own because the vast majority of the market is in for a quick buck and perhaps don't look so deeply into thing as the investors do. I concentrate on what I know, what we have and the fact that it is required! From there on, it is just a matter of time before we are making money! Red tape slows everything down and all the complaining in the world will not prevent that from happening. While I'm not blind to other things I am confident the Bod are working towards what is best for Aminex and its shareholders large and small. As for the tint! Without doubt we have an element of rose tint on our glasses but then again many of us have done the research to justify it so is it really rose tinted at all? There are people here who held this share years ago when it was much higher than it is now and they have kept buying all the way down. Some no doubt bailed out on getting their money back but there are also many who have stayed on because they have belief that has come from their knowledge. My research tells me I have nothing to complain about and though I have some questions for the Bod I'm reasonably happy atm

And our friend Jonah at it again on that Matt attack in the last hour (Shakes head) 35% losses he shouts. Wonder where that figure has come from? Oh yes anybody that got caught on the spike in January 5.95 year high probably one or two and no more at the very limit. Don't get me wrong I feel sorry for those guys and gals that got caught but it is the fickleness of traders that have caused the drop and nothing that Matt has done so why bite the hand that you are asking to feed you? Crazy

Agree with that Weyland. and many change direction with the wind. Jumping up and down at every slight movement in sp. I look on these little dips as opportunities but I suppose some are greedy and want to talk themselves an even better opportunity that says screw the rest of you! Not my way of doing business as I have a conscience

Kully we have already had the P&Ds on both of these successful drills where the same crew were rinse repeating day after day throughout and that is why we are static and no further forward than we were before the drills were spudded. They are not here at the moment but the pop in occasionally and they will be back as you say. I see their Mr 10% game and I assume it pays for them but I wonder if they all just let it ride for a little more than five minutes just how far we could go? It wouldn't take much for a share at this sort of price to bag or even multi-bag, but without the volume these guys are just stunting the growth of shares like these as they don't give the outside world a chance to notice the growth. Nobody can tell me two successful wells aren't worth some increase even while waiting for the monetization. That monetization is coming and that is now what we have to wait for.

"and you better make yourself know to me unless you are a coward when I`m at the AGM" Sounds like a threat to me Jonah, do you want to punch my lights out for telling the truth? Or is that just an attempt to get this thread removed? I shan't report it Your tweets to matt... May 6 Matt wished everyone a good bank holiday - yesterday May28 you replied "Well another dreadful week in store for Ntog shareholders Reminds me Solo demise and look where they are now, let hope Ntog steps upto the plate soon !!!" Why? On what basis? May28 "Unfortunately the SP is being killed at the moment so the market is a non believer I�m afraid" Killed Really? May18 Your direct message to Matt "Need to get your finger out Matt your shareholder deserve better than this really" Only 4 days after the failed drill, Des the man not deserve time to breath and regroup? Matt replied "I suggest looking at the amount of communication and actual progress then reassess." Your reply May23 "Well Matt, I will be watching you feed tonight and hope there news on new targets as judging by all the B.B. people are concerned and myself including as I am a shareholder too !!" Even that sounds to have a threatening edge to it but I just ask why such negativity? You've accused me of being a ramper and a pumper and dumper in the past and all I have ever done is support the shares I hold by showing facts and my post record will support that! I have a few opinions of my own like everyone else and I ask questions to gain knowledge but Im not one of those that say its going to be a pound tomorrow. I'm also not one of those that blows hot and cold with the wind to suit their own day trading or shorting patterns. You asked me the AGM question before and I told you I would be at the AEX AGM as I have questions I wish to put forward. I don't know about here yet as I don't know when or where it is but at the moment it is unlikely because I am quite comfortable with the progress Matt is making, so I don't feel the need. Question! You decried Solo for months and blamed Aminex for not being quick enough just as above with Matt, so why did you buy into Aminex on the back of someone elses BB comments? I'd say that was a rather silly basis for making investment and especially since you did nothing other than knock it when you came on the board. You seem to me that if you don't make your fast buck overnight you start crying and I hate to see a grown man cry. If you keep moving from one to the other making a loss you will eventually have nothing left and Oil & Gas is not an overnight business unless you are lucky to get in before a spike and get out at the top so my advice is to find one you actually believe in and get behind it. Good Luck

The whole thing is a minefield guys and there is nothing set in stone. There is so much that is interdependent on one thing or another that it appears we have in place a vicious circle. I doubt any of us will get it all right and all we can do is base our opinions on how we see it! At the end of the day it doesn't matter as long as it comes good for us all.
