Happy New Year everyone!!

Do we have the full support of the Ecuadorian government? I recall reading here that we didn't spend the full amount which we had committed to spending. Won't that upset them, and if the support was 100%, shouldn't we have received the permit expected before Lasso left office?

I know we don't control the government schedules, but if they truly valued mining, they would have expedited the permits and stop dragging their feet on every important thing. All we are left with are doubts, guessing, depressed SP, and no idea if our wishes will come to fruition.

Anyway, new year, new hope, and my sincere wish that we can all at least get our money back.

Hi Add, I was primarily answering the question regarding tax year that someone asked, and positing that any tax year sellin would most likely taken place in Canada.

So, I am not the only one who doesn't expect a sale to occur during 2024?!

I wonder what justifications the pundits will put forward this time for us to vote the BOD back in at the 2024 AGM?

Tax year in Canada is January to December. Hence, selling would have been Canadian.

If I remember correctly, wasn't Lasso supposed to sign off some doc for solg before he left office? What happened there?

This endless waiting would test even the patience of Job! I am comforted that the specials did not get approved. Hence, I think Scott got the message that he needs to get a move on.

No Covgaz, the real genius here is Lord Braggart who was beside himself with glee at the sudden SP increase, he posted:

"Holding above 11.20...new support level...?

12.50 then 14 next targets..."

Now, that post was a brilliant display of a genius at work:)

It won't be long before we read that Lord Braggart had skillfully took his profit before the inevitable retrace which I indicated would occur. For that post, he filtered me:)

I don't know Add, solg and by extension Scott, has never failed to disappoint. There is still plenty time for a retrace which we have seen before. Hopefully I am wrong and the upward trajectory will continue.

Now I have heard everything. The SP plunged from 40p into the 6p range; fell 43% since Scott became ceo, and folks are beside themselves with glee and post "Many years of patience is finally paying off."

I wonder what will be said should the SP gets to 12p?!!!

No doubt they will have a banquet to celebrate:)

Looks like the SP retrace has began! It would appear that the SP rally was too good to be true!

You posted that you had me filtered Lord Braggart. Hence, I wasn't expecting you to see my posts:)

You do know that I was poking the ant nest with my post, yes?

Let's take a bet to see how long it will take Lord Braggart to boast about how much he has made from the current SP rally. I say before the market close.

You tell me Tesa, you seem pretty knowledgeable on matters relating to the @rse.

One thing for sure, the current rally hasn't come about because of anything which the BOD has accomplished in recent months. More like geopolitics and macroeconomics coming together and scaring folks to buying anything with the name gold:)

But NAL said that Twiggy is pulling out of Ecuador and therefore not likely to be interested in Solg BBG!

You know how accurate NAL is when it comes to investing. Hence, don't bet on Twiggy going for solg.

Easy now Fort, you remember what happened to NAL'S rumour?

Ho ho ho, hopefully not a 304 what with Scott showing more leg, but a proper SP recovery:)

Forgive my ignorance BBG, but who is Suhail Sayed, and in what endeavour has he distinguished himself?

Santa rally for sure:)

Add, let us enjoy this rare moment of positive SP momentum today because tomorrow we might be back disappointed as it retraces!

Merry Xmas Orth, you gave me my first good laugh for the day. In return, I will tell you one of my old jokes.

A guy driving through Cornwall. He stopped at a pub for a pint. He walked in and found that the landlord offering free drinks to anyone who could make the donkey he had tied up outside laugh. Quite a few folks tried, but failed to get the donkey to laugh. So, he decided to have a go. He went outside and the others watched converse with the donkey. To their utter shock and a amazement, the donkey burst out laughing, rolled on the ground with laughter. The guy returned to the pub and they asked him, how did you get the donkey to laugh? He replied, I told the donkey that I have a bigger willy than he has. They asked him, and that made the donkey laugh? No he replied. So they asked him, how did you get the donkey to laugh? He replied, I showed him my willy:)

Add, I don't normally say I told you so. But, from Lord Braggart and many others who tried to bully folks to vote their way, I will make an exception should we arrive at 2024 agm with no sale.

I made no secret that I have no confidence in Scott. However, I am open to the possibility that he might actually surprise us. But, I will not be holding my breath that he will actually deliver in 2024.

I dont think I have been all over the place. I have consistently stated that I have no confidence in Scott. I haven't changed my stance in that regard. However, when it comes to voting, I endeavour to look at the bigger picture and not boil things down to 1 specific. Like you, I can also be pragmatic. As for my confidentiality, when you last voted in your home town, be it for your local council, or at the last general election, did you vote in the open, or did you go to a booth to vote? Did you hold up your ballot paper and showed it to everyone present, or did you quietly folded it and placed it through the slot in the ballot box? Hopefully, you can appreciate why I choose to keep my overall voting confidential and maintain the sanctity of the ballot box:)

Merry Christmas Add!

You know that I respect you as a poster, but with respect, you don't know how I actually voted aside from my posting that I voted for NM, and voted against 10, 11, and 12 and the rest, I kept private. Inspite of what some might think of me, I am not a turkey who would vote for Xmas. I took my time, think through my options, and voted for the options which will give the highest chance of a profitable end to this sorry saga. That is all I will say regarding my voting.

Now, I am merely pointing out that I have started to count down the days to the 2024 agm. We are now less than 1 year to that agm. Given how much hope we had for 2023 with most of us expecting that we would not be around as a company to see the 2023 agm, I think we should be prepared for the same outcome for 2024. If we do indeed arrive at December 2024 without being sold, I will remind you of my prediction.

As always, I expect the worst, but hope for the best. One thing for sure, it would appear that some companies don't want to step away from the trough.
