"pales into insignificance along side Brussels corruption"

as in its probably a 10th of the budget so 10th "misplaced" funds

At least the French sentenced Sarkozy to 3 years for corruption, Gavin Williamson should get life for just being Gavin Williamson :-)

The chumocracy of this government is much like any government but pales into insignificance along side Brussels corruption...
Remember if its raining euros/tax in the EU a lot will be syphoned of by bureaucracy before it arrives back with the very people who paid the tax in the first place :-) and no i dont claim the UK government is any better. They are all as crooked as each other.

I would be amazed if Adam had up sticks and gone if there was any sort of deal pending a signature. That would be very bad form . That said its not impossible but i think it very unlikely even if he had officially left the pay role he would have removed his name from association with the company thus distancing himself from any credit from a successful deal.
I'm doubtful the EU would be very keen on dishing out cash to an Aus registered /British listed company without a sizable chunk of something in return for it. I take Bricks point but the idea its raining Euros anywhere in Euroland is misleading, you dont get anything for nothing least of all from the EU !! Money from the Mafia in Italy would probably be cleaner :-)

Facing up to losses and mistakes takes guts. If we all did that most of us would pull the plug long before it gets out of control. how often to investors say ( not here so far i dont think) I'm in so deep and so far under its not worth selling.
Roger thinks its a scam, personally i think given his possible loses we got of lightly with his declaration, it could have been a lot worse looking at the long term chart and the history here. The fault there does not rest with roger or your average holder. Personally i think he is wrong and he should look forward from the current situation and not back and leave what he can afford in this till after the PFS. Yes its a gamble and its his desision but if he wants to go then i do wish him good luck and i hope he fares better elsewhere...and that is not an obsequious post.

Again it has nothing to do with you who I wish good luck and the so predictable stupid jibes you come up with after my every message show you for what you really are.
This thread is the companies and its investors worst enemy. I have watched the usual few raise the threat of a placing over the last month or so and I have watched dozens of small holders, mostly under £1k jump ship and the SP drop accordingly. Lawrence said he was funded for all the major parts of the PFS, he has engaged those necessary to complete it and no mention of funding other than “extra money coming in” from Grants has been mentioned but that’s not good enough apparently. As far as I can see work has continued at a pace despite corona virus and the Spanish tendency to just shut down at the drop of a hat ,not least for July and August. The company would appear to be doing its part on the ground to drive the SP but there are a few here with comments designed to pull the rug from under them, things like we must be running out of money, we must be due a placing and what does MC do for his money anyway and so on, subtle but designed to put doubts in people’s minds and undermine any possible progress with the SP. I have seen this tactic before. You sow a few seeds of doubt, just enough for others to pick them up and run with them, then sit back and let the fireworks explode while everyone forgets you lit the fuse leaving you to take the high ground. Its classic troll, wind people up and let them go.

What would you rather i say ?

Sorry it didn't work out for you roger65
Good luck with wherever you go next.

I didn't need Correcting thankyou, i was quoting the work schedule from the beginning of the year, of course some of these milestones have been passed, it would be very worrying if they hadn't but it was good to see his clarification for others...
I voted his post up at the time which i think is a good acknowledgement of his contribution, not that it has anything to do with you anyway.

I think its pretty obvious what Myles Campion does as he told you in the RNS in March
He is involved in "a number of initiatives that he believes could potentially lead to a major value event for all Europa Metals shareholders"
Don't tell m you missed them ?

On a serious note can someone point me towards (or tell me ) the current options and thresholds for incentivising the board ?

I ran out of letters it seems ?
Last line should read
..........basically shut for 6 weeks in the Summer

I am already starting to feel very sympathetic to Lawrence Read. I am absolutely confident he is doing his level best to progress this project. why ?, well i only have to look at this years RNS
PFS Update: Commencement of Drilling Campaign
Continues drilling at Toral ahead of final assay results
Reports positive initial drilling results from Toral
Wardell Armstrong Appointed as PFS Manager
Milestone 1 of CDTI Innovation Grant Completed
Completes required work to gain first tranche of grant

to list but a few.

We also know that steps to secure local support are well advanced. No one should have expected much before the PFS, thats what makes or breaks this company. Without a PFS you are pretty much guaranteed to be billy no mates in the big boys playground but wave a favourable PFS or BFS at them and they might give you the time of day.
I think funding will not be an issue till after the PFS and that will put a completely different perspective on that issue I'm sure..
People talk, myself included about delivering value ? well how do you do that before you have all the data. Drilling Water/waste ,tonnage , costings etc that you would expect in a PFS ? Getting in too early is not a crime or a mistake and it doesnt mean you have lost your money or that your reward at the end will be any smaller than you expected. Getting in too early simply means you will wait a bit longer.
Finally before i disappear back under my rock for a few more weeks ,have a read of this in case you need reminding what's going on.

Hydrogeological studies to ascertain sub surface water conditions;
Drilling targeting increases in the confidence level of the overall mineable resource for Toral; and

Further metallurgical, geotechnical, waste management and environmental work components.
The Board of Europa Metals believes that completion of the above PFS components will further demonstrate the viability of the Toral Project by advancing the Company's understanding of metallurgy and hydrogeological conditions, defining the parameters for waste management and environmental considerations, as well as potentially upgrading areas of the current resource into higher categorisations.
As previously announced, the Company has commissioned ongoing metallurgical work and ore sorting analysis in respect of Toral (being carried out by Wardell Armstrong International and Bara Consulting respectively) and will thereafter seek to obtain updated preliminary economic parameters for the Toral Project from Bara Consulting, taking into account the significant work completed and data obtained since the 2018 Scoping Study. The Company is also awaiting the renewal of its Investigation Permit for a further three-year exploration term and is in the process of seeking to secure certain EU/regional grant monies.
I dont see anyone kicking the can down the road, dragging this out to collect a wage, i see work progressing at a pace in difficult times in a country that basically sh

This really is a strange soapbox.
The company directors are charged to create and return value to their shareholders. It’s not dependant on a salary or "skin in the game".
Whether they earn £30k or £90k does not give latitude in their obligation to shareholders. I say again, there is absolutely no link between wages and an obligation to return value, the obligation remains whatever the wage. It’s not a case of when they earned 30k we didn't expect much but now on 75k they need to deliver. They need to deliver on 10k if that’s the contract.
Crisp made a very good point about institutional investment in micro caps the other day, unfortunately consolidation might increase an SP but it doesn’t increase mkt cap which might explain the confusion around consolidating an SP to make a "grown up company".
Without institutional investment (preferably with a rep for that investment on the board) the board can’t really be held to account and personally i would judge the "grown- up- ness” of the company by its accountability to its shareholders. This company pretty much has none. Instead, it works on your being here as completely voluntary and like it or lump (sell) it that’s the way of all micro caps. You either believe they will return value or you dont and you hold or sell your 'investment (sic)' accordingly.

Here we go Shedulike while i wait for the canoe sprint in Tokyo , from the urban dictionary
TOP DEFINITION
kick the cat
To release your frustration and powerlessness by snapping at an innocent person or creature who just happens to be handy. Usually following a bad day at work.

then this nonsense
"Highside posted a series of inaccuracies about EUZ" "He posts misleading information"...and he is plain wrong....

You see the point is you sit in judgement on everyone and decide yourself what's right and what's wrong regardless. Phrases like….
"if he sticks his head above the parapet i will blow it off" have made it a chore for people to actually post here which is why there is just 3 of you left. I have never seen one person so effectively shut down a thread through sheer bloody mindedness and selfishness like you. You pounce on every single one of my posts to try and gain some sort of moral high ground, even when you know its complete nonsense.
Yesterday i told you to "go and kick the cat" and you came straight back with how you love animals and you were now offended? jeeez..
Do you know what my biggest crime was yesterday ? lets make a list, i will start you off
1/ He spelt Dual as Duel.
2/
On second thoughts, don’t bother because i really don’t care what you think, I'm gone :-).

Too the rest of you, this does look to have legs , my own research has lead me to buy on three occasions now., its still a punt as finance and timing are an issue, that makes it less than an investment to me at this stage. Remove the threat of dilution and that could change very quickly. Its a shame there is no open discussion here but at the end of the day thats social media for you, it only takes one to spoil it for the rest.
GLA

Again you are wrong, you don’t understand about dual listings and cross listings. Every message I post is dissected and scrutinised my trolls like you. Its run through the thesaurus and dictionary for the tiniest of spelling mistakes, if nothing can be found wrong then selective quotes that change the intended meaning are paraded for all to see and championed as “daft statements”.
As usual once you have lost you sign out with..well its getting boring now..lol..i bet it is but here’s a bit of advice
If you dig a hole and fall in, you will not get out by digging further.

Bloodyredbarron..in the short term no, you will be hounded off the board by pedantic nobodies who a hugely down on their punts and taking it out on other sensible posters with an interest in this company..

No you see what i actually said was

"If its duel listed" then the SP for the JSE shares has little to do with the SP of UK listed shares.
You know that full well that was what was said as you picked up on the spelling which is what started you off. We have now established despite your attempts to discredit me, that the shares are not Dual listed so i was 100% correct.

Thanks BricksSA ( i just twigged what the SA bit is ) :-)
That about clears that up then. the listing must be a cross listed, i guess they would follow a similar SP within a small % or people would be buying on one market and selling on the other with an international account. Presumably the JSE listing is a historical thing?

Shedulike
If you go through my posts looking at dictionary definitions ( Previously)and now spelling mistakes which you do, dont then try and turn it round on me. My biggest crime this week is to spell Dual as Duel.
Are you honestly saying the well known phrase "kick the cat" is a message to literally kick the cat ? and now you are offended ? I'm building a picture of you and its looking very sad, and you start your day by calling me pedantic ?.
Next you will be saying i am effecting your mental health i expect....
If You really think you can control who posts what you are greatly mistaken .. quote " If you keep putting your head above the parapet it will just continue to get blown off every time " grow up, get a life and try and treat others here with a little respect.

No worries Bricks
so the question is now is there an allotted amount of shares to the JSE or is there a company total thats available to both exchanges?
In the long run i dont suppose it matters but i am interested in the SP differential. does it ever move significantly of does it mirror within say 10% of the LSE ? ie: could it just be currency fluctuations and perceived risks on different exchanges ?

Shedulike. I have said before i have no idea what your problem is but go and take it out on the cat or something. Its really nothing to do with me thanks.

BricksSA
That actually quite interesting because i didn't think EUZ was traded on SETS. If it is then your bank is buying on the LSE i would have thought.

Top tip
Use a question mark after you ask a question like this

Why don't you ask Dan Smith, he should be able to provide a definitive answer ?
