Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Hi Darth. Actually retired since end-2018, and never so busy! Most of my funds now invested in solid high dividend stocks ... but I have still kept 'gamble' funds in FUM, IOF, ATM and a few other AIM companies.
But all good.
NoReserve We got the update this morning. Looking good to come on line in June 2023 with a possible IO#10 to follow. Also pleasing is that Iofina is likely to beat its production target in 2022. Check the four quarter update for fuller details.
This is what is coming up on Google for me (because of being based in France?

But it seems we have our own website too:

Thanks Derrick. And thanks also for the previous link you provided for the Pensacola rig and support ship. Interesting use of satellite imagery. In a past life I was involved in image analyses across Africa but using rather NOAA for vegetation and agricultural production analyses.
But here my comment about a flare forming was a gentle ribbing of Noel and other chartists who talk about such things as head and shoulders or candlesticks forming on their predictive charts.
So do I Noel. But I would like to think that most of us punters who risk thousands at a time on (especially) AIM stocks have sufficient marbles not to be taken in by the wind up artists.
What are harder to sieve out our the well reasoned arguements of the influencers who are trying to persuade us to change our stance. I prefer to read the technical blurb and analyse the risk / reward ratio myself before investing. And then not to be too greedy when my decision is correct or too loyal when it's not.
What are your charts telling you about resistance? I am looking forward to hear that we have a flare forming!
Sjm321 .. there are wind up artists on every board, Snoops is one of them but I find the guy rather a sad but still amusing character. No one would pay money for the unsupported trivia that he posts. Read the posts, smile at them and move on to do what YOU think is right.
The bottom line is that we have a toss of a coin chance of hitting gas, we all knew that at spudding. If this one fails, and it well could, then move on to the next carried drill (Selene?)
Anyone out there to respond?
Is this a done deal or can we refuse KKR's offer?
Sorry snoop but it is not free speech when you say things like you know it's a duster because of leaks from the rig. That is either using insider info or not telling the truth.
We all know that this drill is estimated at 55% chance so all everone is awaiting is for the wretched coin to drop.
Indeed Golden. I have bought in and sold out on several past occasions 75% of time making a profit (I try not to be too greedy on AIM).
But I would be careful on long term comparisons as the company has rather reinvented itself. Longer term punters will remember that Algie was all in for undersea flaring of coal deposits and capturing the gas; until this process was put in the same basket as fracking. The Wee one in Scotland leading the way.
Collecting N Sea licences and farming out to the bigger boys is relatively more recent.

Drilling started on Nov 23. 60-90 days drilling anticipated, so earliest completion would be around start of last week of January. I calculate that we are only some 60% towards target (in time) and so call out Snoop and Cuckoo to explain how results can already be known.
Either they are trading on inside info or are telling porkies, I'm sure the latter. Because still too much drilling time to go.
Remember this drill has been given a 55% chance of success, coin flipping time.
Any chance that this may be a pyss take on a certain snoopy?
Congrats NoelS, you predicted correctly it would seem. The problem with discussion boards is that everyone is unknown, has his/her own agenda and therefore no one is to be completely trusted.
For example, for the past couple of weeks we have been inundated with the "duster" theorist who is therefore either mystic dog or a straightup liar.
I prefer to use my own analysis and also try hard not to be too greedy. But everyone to their own.
Happy New Year and may we strike a lot of gas.
Thanks for the reminder BA. I note that the Geologists give the drill a 55% chance of success. I just hope the coin falls the right side or Snoopy will never close his gob.
But like you, I added a few more because, for an opening drill, these are good odds and the falling price increases the upside. Further, I trust the skill of the team at Shell.
BadA, I would imagine that most oilies can do some simple maths. Offshore Britain has been drilled so much that the average distance that can be drilled per day is well known multiplied by number of days since spudding and then subtracted from depth to target zone. Correct me if I'm wrong.
With Shell as our partner on this drill, I am more than confident about our chances. No well is ever 100% certain while drilling is on-going. Yes, it might be a duster as sdog asserts (with no proof to back it up) but I believe odds are better than even that we will hit at least gas.
We are being taken out on the cheap. This so called 30% premium simply shows how the market was undervaluing the company. The 13 mill in cash goes a long way to funding the t/o. I am not impressed, but a done deal, it seems.
Today's RNS, 251.4p to be paid, anticipated on 3rd Jan.
