Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Thanks Hindsight.
You are a man of action, whilst most of the rest of us wait to be spoonfed news!
Max. In theory, the remaining steps are easy.
We just need a JV in order to finance building an access road, and hiring a few diggers & haulage trucks.
Afterall, most everything else is done.
The problem is. Are Anglo American still interested in our little project?
All a "super" CEO will bring to the game is contacts.
Alwyn Vorster and Guy Robertson might already have plenty of their own!
Consuela. I don't know if you noticed but WWIII has started and we don't have enough ship building capacity or gas storage.
The country is skint, but fortunately for HARL, there are no rules in global war!!!
Would having a new CEO steady the ship? I don't see what value one has, until we have the Mining Licence.
Broomtree. None of us needs to justify our comments, even though many of us do.
Good luck with your future trades!

Might HARL be allowed to fail in order to sell it to Serco for £1. I view this or a MBO as not insignificant outcomes, but I'm forever the optimist that things will come good here and we'll end all our days in the sun!

Who's desperate - HARL or the Axis of Evil?
My money's on the AoE.
Only about 6 weeks to go and we are in the money!
GLA
MBGA!!!
And why is HARL in so much debt? Is it because it has invested in labour saving, cutting edge, technology?
Might it be time for Sir John to "commission" a favourable news story in the FT? Then again, might we not have the political influence of the Serco's of this world?
Hopefully, we won't see the HARL sold off to Serco for £1.
GLA
Stokey12. Might UKEF be about to make a decision that will be very much in HARL's favour. Causing powerful people to put out a news story trying to pressure UKEF to reverse it's decision?
Looks like an act of desperation to me!
ATB, FG
Looks like the Axis of Evil is giving it it's best shot to take the company down!
The AoE certainly has friends in high places, and might have strong influence over a few posters on this message board!
They've only got about 6 short weeks to achieve their egregious goals.
Will they succeed? Time will tell, but it's definitely on OUR side!!!
GLA
No disrespect to you, Max. But I just listened to what Alwyn said, and my understanding is:
- Mining Lease decision within 3 month of mid February.
- Environmental approvals, after the lease
- Everything else to follow
ATB, FG
I've just re-watched the last interview, and it's clear that other than a JV or Placing, there's nothing to see here until the month of April/May; when the Mining Licence should be approved.

Until then, Chris2, etc al, can have their fun.
GLA
Consuela. I'm a firm believer in raw data. Unfortunately, there's lies, damned lies, and statistics!
Numbers can be manipulated, very much like people!!!
Bubble. All us LTHs hope that you are right!!!
15p is the tipping point!
Who knows, we might just get back there!!!
GLA
Hebridean9. Isn't most of HARL's debt down to buying/installing cutting edge technology? So, isn't that really investing for the future?
My opinion, for what it's worth, is that we are deliberately being held down, but that can only last until either the refinancing is announced, or the £120M Falklands contract is signed.
So, that leaves the Axis of Evil about 3 to 6 weeks to have one last, determined, push to undermine confidence in the company.
Good luck to them!
GLA, FG
I know nothing about the mining application process, but one might assume that satisfying the knac should have entailed more stringent requirements.
I'll admit to being greatly disappointed here. Who knew that being "shovel ready" was such a difficult process?
The only positive is that we just be close to getting the Mining Licence. I'm just hoping that we'll get a bumper RNS saying that our new CEO is pleased to announce it!
GLA
I'm down a lot here, but who knows, I might get my money back and lot's more!
The folks over at GCAT, and KAT, will know that all that glitters isn't gold, but I think KAV as just been unlucky to date.
Hopefully, we are invested in a sleeping giant! Unfortunately, for me, I have no spare money to buy more shares here at the moment.
