Svend - why was I earmarked for that?

I appear to have had a post deleted, presumably for calling the Welsh 'Welsh.' If that's so, it pretty well proves my point.

Consistency from Admin would make a pleasant change on here!

If you guys read the news articles, the business being sold has £7.5b assets under management but the sale will raise about £100m, approx 5p per Abdn share. The money raised will be used within Abdn's business.

He was CEO of Chaarat when they made an approach for Shanta a year ago! Would have considerably more firepower this time round if he still fancied it.

TSX often trades at a slightly higher SP than in UK, but nothing ever happens. That's Canada for you!

19:40 - Thank you. x

19:47 - Errrr....pass!

19:55 - Nope!

Why not just agree that your post was more than just a tad silly.

Covgaz:-

'Thank you for your character assumption Gino , and the 6 that chose to vote u up. I will put you in the same category and CD ,add and there like then.

I only ever speak the truth , and I wear my heart on my sleeve.

You go have a loverly day u pr*k.'

Is it fair to assume you missed English Grammar lessons and haven't bothered with it since?

PS - Would love to know what a pr*k is. Is it a Cov entry thing?

Are you daft? The royalty deals, Chinese investment, BHP and Newmont/Newcrest haven't sold their shares yet, but all have failed to spot the hoax.

Covgaz is from Coventry and should perhaps be sent back there. Eejit!

I understand peoples feelings about the perceived lack of momentum from SC and as such who wouldn't want to kick someone in the backside, but haven't we been here before? Having a new CEO appointed in the past has only resulted in further delays, new ideas about mining Cascabel and further salary costs in the meantime.

We can't sack the Ecuadorian Govt, or put a gun to the head of any potential purchaser to order a move on. This is what it is and it's your choice to be in or out!

Ooooooh, picky aren't you! At my age I have to take it any which way and whenever I can! xx

When they announced Q2 results, they mentioned $6.7m VAT repayment to be received early Q3 but no mention here of that having occurred.

Many here question the low level of our SP, but if you look at the amount shown on our balance sheet as being due from the Tanzanian Govt but never seemingly being realised, it could be part of the problem.

Our friend Elodie has been appointed non exec Director of Shanta Gold.

It's a merry go round this game, isn't it!

Surely all of these little pieces (tailings dam, pipeline land etc) make Cascabel more saleable.

Can't comment on the value of it, but any prospective purchaser would want as many boxes ticked as possible.

They said week commencing 180923. They aren't late with the numbers unless we haven't seen them by Friday.

Copperpot - I'm very well thank you. Taking the tablets, but haven't fully committed to the surgical procedure, so Gina still a little premature. xx

Houndog - Because of the current state of play as regards consolidation of gold miners, one would hope that any incoming CEO would have the nous to incorporate a reasonable golden parachute payment into his/her/it's contract in case of that scenario. If they don't, we may get a muppet!

If we have to save the planet, do what I've just done. I unplugged a row of electric cars cos no one was using em! Makes sense!!!

ADVFN has gone the way of this BB. Three or four posters having william waving contests and 'trigger' Dave popping up now and then to cast doom n gloom over the SP. Not worth a look now that KS has gone, unlike here!

Whenever gold price is on the up, W St opens at 8:00 and it gets knocked back down again. Many allege the Comex is fixed on an industrial scale. Who would argue?

After 4 1/2 hrs the SP is up 5.5% on less than £20k traded! We need more of this - less trading that is!
