Aldebaran - you keep going on about HAA leaving, but that just ain't gonna happen, not for quite a while. Best get used to the idea.

Pales in comparison to some, to be fair - Xhita's up to 330 in 30 days...

I didn't want to say anything Friday, for fear of being labelled a dastardly deramper and made to sit on the naughty step, but given that the GDXJ was down more than MTL was at the time, I did wonder if MTL had further falls to come, in order to catch up (down) to the market.

Seems like collateral damage from the tech sell-off (on top of all the other global issues we already know about), but when all's said and done, I'd rather be in precious metals equities than tech/AI right now.

KefiGold, probably, and yet seems more bearish than KG, so not 100% certain. Certainly not the first account Target has ever had, that's for sure.

Major - higher risk of everyone being made redundant due to AI... and then the AI CEOs 10x-ing the price...

I swear some companies (possibly mine) are sleep-walking into this right now...

Lol. Here we go...

Indeed. I think we covered this pretty thoroughly last time around. Nothing's changed over the last month!

So your implication is that I did? If so, please quote my posts (in full) where you think I did so.

For myself, I certainly acknowledge that I'd have done better trading it a bit, but I didn't/haven't, which actually isn't a brag if you think about it...

Ah, I did wonder if you were the same Punter as was in CNR. There's a couple of Punter's on LSE I think, slight variations in name. In which case, if you're being honest with yourself, you will have either a.) traded CNR and/or MTL yourself, or b.) acknowledge that you'd be better off if you had done so at times. Can't have it both ways.

You can suspect whatever you like, but assuming you hadn't heard of La India until MTL bought CNR, then I assure you I've been invested in La India a lot longer than you have, and if you think I'd sell a bean this close to production, you must be having a laugh! No, to be fair, I probably would have done better if I had sold at certain junctures, but I'm generally too busy with life, so it's easier to just let it ride.

There's more whinging *about* whinging than there is actual whinging to begin with. In fact, there's frequently more whinging about whinging than there is actual positivity! Maybe those who like to whinge about whinging should actually contribute something constructive themselves. Just a thought.

Tired tropes from unimaginative folks. Anyway, topping up myself, so there you go.

Agreed deedee. Don't know where Target is getting that from. Just making it up basically I think. I expect first pour in Q4 2027. If there are to be any delays, they're likely to be in the early phases - relocation, etc - so we'll have an early warning if those phases overrun. Once Lycopodium get started, I expect them to be as good as their reputation suggests, and complete the build on time, or even early.

> KEFI in Ethiopia commands a £160mcap right now.

KEFI is fully-funded to production of their flagship Tulu Kapi gold mine. Construction has started and first gold pour should be Q4 2027. It cost shareholders there an awful lot of dilution to raise the funds to get to that position. As such, holders have not profited anything like as much as the MCap increases along the way would suggest. Most junior mining companies will be in a similar boat - either they explore and sell for a fraction of true worth to someone who can afford to put it into production, or they try to put it into production themselves, which is a long and expensive road.

Reported B_Positive. This is the KEFI board. Mention it once, if you must, and then have the good manners to either talk about KEFI henceforth, or bugger off.

While I'm not familiar with ORR, I tend to stay clear of companies with such low MCaps. They tend to be more gambles than investments. I'm at the stage of my life where I've realised that decent investments will make me more over the long term, and with less risk, than gambling.

UK population density is 289 people per sq km, according to Google. Spain is 97-98 people per sq km. That fact alone will have huge implications on all sorts of things, including traffic.

The anti-UK diatribe is becoming tedious. Go invest in Spanish companies if they're so great. While you're here, maybe have just a little respect. You're not going to get much in return if you continue in this vein. It's rude, frankly.

Has all the hallmarks of AI cossy. Read into that what you will, but AI makes it easy to sound like you know what you're talking about without it necessarily being so.
