Yup , Vast couldn't have recently raised 1.25 million on the bases that the diamonds may or may not be released. The contract in Aprelevka is a game changer for Vast . The tide has turned .
"Aprelevka has three existing tailings dams that can be reprocessed containing high gold values of which two tailings dams can be exploited in the near term."
The gold in the tailings is probably worth as much as the diamonds to Vast who will get 10% . (See AP interview) The tailings were probably produced at a time when gold prices were much lower than they are today .
The pressure is off Vast and the lenders will be more happy to extend as a result. I would imagine that the tailings will be Vast's number one target .
It does look as if they are trying to save the company and jobs as a whole and not selling bits off .
Really bad news for the South Wales economy and families at Port Talbot.
Now that the three ex-Tesla amigos have arrived on the scene at DGI it should boost interest in AMTE as an investment opportunity. DGI will want to roll out their sodium-ion battery ASAP and AMTE will be their preferred manufacturer as AMTE have helped to develop it . I hope this changes the dynamics of any possible deal to save AMTE .
I would hope AMTE can survive all of this with some government backing and support. That's what's needed here.
Sodium is the new lithium , it's sustainable cheap and safe . Bring it on and let's stop all this faffing around and time wasting . We have a climate to save here 😇🤩
It's really good AMTE are right there ready to launch their sodium-ion battery as there is a definite shift towards sodium away from lithium. This could really be the turning point in AMTE'S fortunes . Good luck folks 👍 Have a look at the price chart for lithium..it says alot !

This whole deal needs a promise of support from the government, either Scottish or from London . Then it's a possibility that AMTE can be saved . It will also contribute to saving the planet which is far more important 🤔 !
I would like to see DGI and AMTE join together and now that the three ex-Tesla amigos are running the company (DGI) perhaps the government will wake up and offer assistance for a merger to take place . That would be the dream outcome for me !

Another link to DGI and the battery AMTE helped to develop. The CEO of DGI states that "the industry stands on the cusp of unprecedented exponential growth "
The government needs to have a reality check here and put together a rescue package and kick-start growth in our battery industry.

The government backed Advanced Propulsion Centre UK estimated that by 2030 the UK would need 90 GWh of battery cells per year just for EVs . That doesn't include any batteries for solar or wind or smart tariff energy storage systems. (Source from DGI'S website)
That's why the UK needs it's own battery industry and the government needs to act now before we lose our expertise. The government have their heads in the sand 🙄
Lots of research and development has gone into producing DGI'S sodium-ion battery with AMTE . Can't believe that AMTE will fold . There has to be a solution !

Wouldn't want to be out of this over the weekend ! 🤣
It's difficult to predict what's going to happen next 🤔
The market for batteries is changing and there's a worldwide , rapid shift to green energy solutions . What has happened in the past isn't the same as what's going to happen in the near future . If you want to value AMTE as a company then you have to look at the future potential markets for it's products...not what has happened in the past . It's a different landscape ahead of us now ....with lots of opportunities !

No dead battery market here ! The hot South leading the way ...

If the AIM listing remains in place then existing shareholders won't be wiped out .
The demand for batteries in the future will be huge and there will always be room for more players in the industry . Battery chemistry will change but AMTE have the expertise to adapt . There's great potential here and that's why it all to be revealed in the next days and weeks !
