The fall to this point of BMR is not due to its shareholders. We have trusted in two sets of management and it is they who have not cut the mustard, in spite of, at times, official news to the contrary. Many of us here are investors, not traders, so we continue to believe in the realisation of value from this Kabwe resource, regardless of past managerial woes. It is very doubtful that your posts will therefore rattle anyone into panic selling, if that is your intention. We are naturally trusting now that the tie-up with JLP will be mutually beneficial, and, although the terms are harsh for BMR, the alternative wouldn't have been palatable for shareholders. Importantly thiough, the prospect of a successful outcome for many of us remains. I say past managerial woes, because the Board change will hopefully go some way to alleviating prior problems. Borrelli will no longer have the freedom to operate like someone who is completely unaccountable. Even though he really is accountable. JLP, the major shareholder, will be keeping him on a tight leash. In my opinion. Finally, if you are not out to goad existing shareholders Mike, then you are going about things the wrong way here. Enough said. Enjoy your Sunday.

Great stuff matey. Thanks for sharing.

Aye, same style, same bile. Trying to tag long-term holders of many years as trolls. Lol. Classic. On we go.

Yes, I would say that largely it is, but not always. :-)

Yes indeed. We shareholders always give credit where it is deserved.

Thanks Geo.

My "never" prediction was tongue in cheek. I don't really believe there won't be a decision, I was only highlighting at the time that it was pointless to guess. I know it's only a bit of fun though. Ok, so prior to the September elections I would say for a decision, no later, because to me that would be highly apt, and, the decision also before the enormous summer holiday. I think our Granite is in with a good shout. There or thereabouts. Week or so after National Day hol. So I'll say on Thursday 14 June. Although we all know that it could and should be sooner. Lol. Cheers Geo.

.......a welcome confidence booster. It is great work again by Kurt, gradually making BEM more robust. Hats off to the Finns for recognising that progress is a beneficial act. Lol. Very pleasing.

Just saying "Hi!" See you back at BMR.

Mikey babes, I thought you were fishin' bruv. Let's just see what news brings eh? Chances are, Bozzer will continue to fook things up for BMR holders until he is replaced, although JLP must be loving his ineptitudes. The Birdman and Leon will probably try everything they can to keep the little weasel on the Board. Lol.

15% for BMR? Bozzer would be investigated by the Sweeney. In my opinion.

More like "This parrot is dead. Hell-o Polly!" Perhaps Alex has just been resting since he took over. My theory of him actually being stuffed from day one may be a tad off. Who knows?

....concession...

Howl. Yes!

Hi Oaktree, good to hear from you. Yes, been an unfortunate few years here, but we have a great asset and Kurt is an excellent representative for us, our conxessuon application sound, so we should still be confident of a positive outcome. Via the Swedes' own rules. Hopefully this summer will be bright for us old BEMers. In it to win it Oaktree. I think many of us decided that a long while ago, so are just continuing with the waiting, and that's it really. Lol. Best regards.

Yes, I completely agree. It is still making me bloody twitch, because we are seemingly within touching distance of a rebound, but the extension of time for JLP is yet another knock. Nothing has ever been straightforward with this investment. We can only wait and see what happens mid-June now then, and in the meantime, dispense with worrying about it, if we can. I could choke Bozzer with one hand, but I'd probably need two for Bird. Lol. Cheers Barno.

Good post that Stu. Fair play.

Spot on Bryn. Mikey hasn't gone back far enough has he? Lol.

Aye, I don't recall the sp ever being the equivalent of 0.195p while we were struggling under MA, and it has been even lower, as we know, under the Bozweasel. But MA didn't ever bring us a meaningful JV, which we do appear to have now, albeit at a massive cost. Bozzer given an atomic wedgie by Bird and Leon on the percentage. In short. The crap from both MA and Borrelli has been overwhelming, each of them being pretty dire overall really, particularly the latter, in my opinion, yet we are still alive and kicking. Lol.

Agree re the timescales. They've only just been set, so shouldn't need revisiting to extend. Good post.
