Member Info for FatherTedFeck

Well, Father ted was my favourite piece of art over, so it was the name I picked for HC. But then lse is a UK site, so there were already 15 different characters called father ted, Father Ted 6969 etc etc, so "feck" is just a catchphrase from the show, so I tacked that on. I think it's a pretty good show obviously...

I haven't see you around these here parts, Senderos! I am hoping the dgr raise is all settled before the Porvenir hole 1 assays, and/or before the hole 2 visuals (which I expect to be the *real* discovery announcement.) I even bought some ajq options today, so I'm unusually full of team spirit.

Existing shareholders are happy to have one more bite at the cherry before any big rise, plus there's options to go with.

They've got applications in for 20 more properties once the abra-cadabra re-opens. They've recently mentioned (for the first time imo) that they target the areas where the Andes bends off it's more or less straight line. Maybe that's where the new targets will be.

I've not been watching closely my friend, but i think KK is mostly an underground mine? Are they going pit then decline? Underground needs so much better rocks, but it has a magic quality whereby...you can pull your first ore from the richest bits you found...so your first few weeks/months/years worth of rocks through the mill, can be your absolute best rocks, and we all make money.

If we had to open pit Alpala to exploit it, my God, the shares would be back to 2p.

Good post Ted, that's very insightful. Yuuuuuge.

Hello Redknight1, re China and resources and general Chinese expansion....it seems to me that Trump (of all people) has held up his sword and yelled "Chaina-Chaina-Chaina ENOUGH!!!" And surprisingly.... fully half the world has decided to follow him! It's now broadly ok to even say that China is a problem, or even China is an adversary. The whole of Five Eyes blocked Who-Are-We? from 5G, for example.

As for international investing, I feel that the Anglosphere (ok, Washington,) will now take more of a "with-us-or-against-us" attitude, but this time in opposition to the emerging authoritarian superpower of China, rather than against the rag-tag radical psychotics of the Caliphate.

USA still assumes the Monroe Doctrine over South America, and is working to turf China out of it.

Yeah, so then just sell the whole company on the proviso of a spin-out of all the exploration properties? (nb not an international corporate lawyer.)

Several piddly sub-economic intervals strung out over hundreds of metres of core do not make a "very long interval of gold mineralisation." We're onto the fillet mignon here, and you're trying to temp us with Pedigree Chum.

They're private.

The youtube captions turn Oyu Tolgoi into "are you a tall guy?"

Nice one Mog. Cheers.

(Turns out that was Duran Duran. Anyhow.)

They might look like a bunch of Oxbridge accounting graduates, but it's still a cracking song. They've got another even better song all about Rio Tinto! But anyhow

why should the drama follow your timing?

Are there two or more parties who want what cgp got? Yes? Well they're not "distressed sellers" then. They are advantaged sellers....they'll get a good price.

Good post iceburg.

Now why the same thing didn't happen to solg is anyone's guess.

The answer would be something like...copper is going up, gold is going up, cgp did a little publicity for once, anticipation of M&A activity due to BHP being allowed to make moves soon, plus many reasons why cgp was objectively cheap relative to solg and to peers. And that's a fair enough answer overall.

CD, give your imagination a rest.
