The ore IS the guvnor not just the governor. Boom!

Lol.

Howl

There are no grounds for a no. Facts are important, and nobody has come up with anything factual, or any proof whatsoever to uphold a no. Just being upset that you can't control the entire planet doesn't count. Lol. You should be safe with that top-up.

Yes Bob. Ka-Pow!

Seems like an unusual rise on no news Sooz. Good though, obviously. Hey, economic growth will be more difficult in Jokkmokk without our mine. Lol. Tell me another.

Before technology and greed took over.

That's good. Maybe, just maybe, they've got wind of something. Or, some over there still feel a decision will come prior to or very soon after the election date. Dunno.

Hi Manro. Yes, I suppose we didn't expect the further wait to this point in time now, and why would we? So many of us felt that your timing was perhaps off, and particularly because Kurt hadn't been with us for too long, the appropriate thing, in my view, being to allow him to function on our behalf, unhindered by shareholder interference. Really though, we know the rest, and I can't see the election is an acceptable excuse for the lack of a concluding action on our application by the authorities, since all relevant parties submitted their final comments many months ago. We need an end date on this Kallak affair, in my opinion, so after the election is over (if we hear nothing beforehand of course), I'll be seeking clarification from Kurt as to how he intends to take the project forward. Moreover, how he plans to cut through the red tape and release us from this malaise. Best regards.

I agree with some of what you say. The thing is, Kurt couldn't advertise a plan of action, should, I trust, he have one. He needed to keep his cards close to his chest at the AGM. It was the first AGM in Sweden and a bit of decorum was needed, in my view. The election has seemingly been used as an excuse by everyone though, including Kurt and Göran, as an acceptance that a decision is unlikely. Kurt now has to make it likely. I believe he will do, if he hasn't had assurances from the present administration, but the question is when he will begin to really turn the screw. I disagree with what you say about not seeing the faith placed in him paying off. I feel it will. He is a very astute man and I'm confident he has the necessary bite and backbone to get us where we want to be. Perhaps letting the Swedes know in no uncertain terms that they are liable for our current position is bubbling away in the background. I only know that we've been waiting for four years longer than we should have for a decision, but that Kurt and the Company since he joined have been outstanding. That's what is most difficult to take for me. If this debacle was due to his and/or the Company's failings then it would be a completely different matter, a case of fair enough. Should this lack of any real commitment to sorting our issue continue from the Swedes, then I feel our investment here will eventually be in severe trouble. Again, in my view only. Kurt has to ensure then, that the stagnation we are witnessing is brought to an abrupt end, and, post-election, it must be the priority. Obviously, that is, should nothing positive re Kallak materialise within the next few weeks. Now that would be something. Cheers lb.

Our situation here is unacceptable, in my opinion. The fact we are even discussing Swedish politics instead of talking about mining just indicates how things have gone for us. The political leanings and who or who isn't forming a Government, shouldn't matter a jot. The law isn't being upheld and our Company's treatment continues to be abysmal. I want to know now just what Kurt intends to do about this.

It's too difficult to know where Kurt is at with the "assurances" situation, as in, if they have been given to him or otherwise. He may have a legal team on point, we just don't know. This administration has, after all, been quite rubbish. Best wishes.

.......a decision could still come prior of course....

Hi you two. Good comments. Yes, as one example, Kurt said the election "may" delay a decision. Taken from our subscription RNS of 16 May: "The upcoming General Election in Sweden may delay a decision on the Exploitation Concession, as in my experience, political elections in any country affect a permitting process, often causing delays." So the possibility was put out there to shareholders. This comment being one of many. A decision could still come of course, but we know the Swedes have so far been totally 5.hit. Hence why I'm not excited. Particularly with the grim sp, since the comments were made by both Göran and Kurt. Yet the Swedish investors are still apparently chuffed, because they seem to only keep adding. Hmmmmm. Weird. Lol.

Well, it's looking more and more like we were wrong Aug. The decision not to arrive pre-election. In spite of our best mental efforts. Lol.

Blimey.

Tell her thanks. The bath water is running.

Well, to date, my acorns have only acutely shrunk, being invested in this. Lol.

Nobody knows. In answer to all of your questions.

Not a little bit Sooz. Nope, not yet. When the Greens can no longer throw a spanner in the works, then my mouth might move at the corners a touch. Lol.
