Good post that Tops. Thanks for confirming your time spent with BEM. It's been no picnic for investors, for sure. I take your point about derampers, but really we've had such a rough time with the Swedish Government, until perhaps now, that I can fully understand why some of us have become cynical over time, negative. Unlike the widespread feelings of optimism that existed within us more frequently when this share was motoring in late 2010/early 2011. So Tops, I'm quietly confident we will do very well here with the Greens now gone from the Government and with the law supporting our case if it comes to that, but I'm curbing my enthusiasm until we get this concession. Then surely it'll be game on! Cheers Tops.

I like the old certificated method, in your name. Something real about it then. This electronic holdings lark is convenient, but checking electronically displayed figures does just seem to me like figures and not actually representing amounts of money. Lol. I'll have to be mindful of that.

Sooz, if you transfer 'em electronically you only lose a few shares. The broker will sell out of your investment account, immediately buying back the shares, putting them into your ISA. It's as immediate almost as a direct transfer. If you still have some paper certs then not sure on that, but your broker can advise. You most likely know all of this and my post won't have helped, but it was nice to talk with you. Lol.

TFE, you are lovely, thinking of Suzy like that. :-)

John, the timescale was mentioned in an Operational Update dated 8 May 2013, if you fancy a bit of a weep. Lol. ATB.

Hi John. Yes, I'm sure Kurt will be ready with news of the next stages for us as soon as we receive a positive concession decision, which we must, based on our application and evidence in our favour. I'm happy to sit in and see where it goes, to watch a currently frustrated Kurt set free to get on with being able to achieve great things for all involved. But aye John, concession first. I was reading back through one of CSP's old RNS releases of late, and it said the concession decision was expected to take four to nine months. Lol. Perhaps Clivo meant four to nine years. Bless him.

Thanks AIM, most kind of you to say that matey. Best regards.

Thanks for your comments Geo, but it seems you may have missed the point of my post to Tops. It's nice that know each other and think you have both got this investment sussed. Hats off to you.

Hi Tops. Have you been invested since 2008/09 then, or have you just been following BEM since then and invested later? It's good that you've engaged with Kurt and he is familiar with you. I've been invested since 2010 and Kurt knows me as well. That isn't relevant insofar as how you have been posting on here. Although we can, on paper, try and work out a potential value for Kal, we have not had a normal ride, too many other factors have also affeced the sp to date. Hence my post to you last night. It is too difficult, in my view anyway, to say what the sp "will" be. Cheers Tops.

Eris is in the word fairest too. :-)

Night night Sooz. x

Aye Chops, we don't know how it'll go with the sp. Concession first, get down to business then, but surely we'll need additional good news immediately after, if upwards momentum is to be maintained. I'd be happy with a steady upwards trajectory overall, but only because I don't mind seeing what Kurt has in store for us, waiting in here for that. Night Chops.

Tops, you seem like a nice chap, but some, if not most of us have been here for a decade or more, so what you are posting is your opinion, you are optimistic, but you never support your posts about the sp with facts or figures to show why it should reach a certain figure. If you can put some figures up that would be great, but if you don't have any figures and are guessing like many, if not most of us then why just wait to see what actually happens, with each piece of news. I'd like to say that the sp will reach a new and higher baseline if and when we attain the concession, but I don't know until that occurs, so I can't say it will, but I can say my feeling is that it might or maybe. The point being Tops, is that you are being a bit reckless, not being careful, and I feel that's the problem. There may be inexperienced potential investors looking in and reading your posts, which could mislead them. Long-termers here want to be part of a responsible bb, one that is reflective of BEM itself, so please Tops, have a word with yourself. I'm trying to be fair with you matey.

Blimey Tops, stop it. Lol.

You said that previously MW and then sold. Lol. Are you able to show more tolerance yourself then this time matey? :-)

TFE, and some of us will be holding beyond, awaiting Kurt's plan. If it does reach 50p beforehand, although excellent, there will be surely higher gains to come. Concession first, then the world class asset that it supports will have real bargaining power. Although we are invested to make money, it's important to me, after the decade or more I've been involved, to remain to see how this project will be developed. I did not invest only to see us attain a concession licence and then walk away. Sure, this has been hellish, the permit decision taking eight years longer than it should have done, but many of us here have managed to hack the wait, so, my original reason for investing still applies. It isn't and won't be the case that I duck out early on Kal's development possibilities because we have achieved a decent sp prior to or following the concession news. Call me a fool, but I ain't had enough yet, and the antics of the Swedish Government have made me more determined to remain invested and fight for this project, to give my support to Kurt so he can get on with taking the Wulf to the next level with his mining expertise. That's how I see it here, for me personally. Just sayin'.

Aye Gambier, a fair post that. The law is final, all else is just noise.

Hi Dornod, yes, friends indeed. We have been here forever and nurtured it since it was an unJORCed baby into a mineable teenage rebel. Lol. May as well continue to offer our support and cherish these moments matey, success must be legally the right outcome for us, it's then a question of how long we feel the teenager needs before letting go of the reins and stepping aside. Kurt's plan will help us decide when the time is right.

Hi SJ. Good week for us, yes. To have parity with Sweden is unusual, so may be a sign that the cream is rising. The thing we have in our favour as well, is that Kurt has done everything right, by the book and more, whereas the Government has been a little bit naughty, lying to us and then being rumbled by the KU. Our application merits the concession, that would hold up in court, so Thor must give us the approval or the dung will hit the fan. Kurt, although perhaps unlike his Dad in approach, is as hard as nails. Make no mistake, as courteous and accommodating as Kurt is with one and all, he will pursue this for us until we receive what we have legally been entitled to all along. I'm trusting there will be no further bull.5hit from the Government, because the time for a decision is now, or face the consequences. In my view.

Aye Pocko, I see it that way too.
