Very useful extra cash as we approach launch. I wonder who the wealthy buyers are. Exciting times ahead.
How did water get in those batteries, they are totally sealed? Must have been a faulty battery. I have driven EV's for 12 years and have driven through flood water on numerous occasions without any problems. In fact on one occasion ICE cars were getting flooded, but my EV kept going. No way should water get in the battery pack, if it did then it would probably be covered under warranty.
I should add that I have driven EVs for 12 years. My current one has 80k on the clock in 4 years and battery state of health is still at 89% So I know for a fact that they keep going. It's amazing the amount of false rubbish on the internet concerning EVs.
Yep, I am thinking 1p now, just because of the excellent position they are in on the ground, with good communications in place and working with the people of Mali. Once mine is in production and the cash starts flowing in, I think Mali will favour us in the future because of our ability to follow procedures, giving us massive upside potential in the future. Working with bureaucracy, rather than fighting it, is always the best policy. OK, it takes time, but as they say 'Rome was not built in a day'
That is one of the best presentations I have seen from a mining company. It was reassuring on all fronts. I am now a very happy investor in these. I do think they should be nearer 1p at this stage, but AIM is rather sluggish in these hard times. This is not advice, just my opinion.
These petitions are a waste of time, you need 100k signatures before anyone takes notice. I doubt you could find 100k people in the UK who understand what a short position is. In a country of gamblers and the massive gambling industry, I doubt change will happen soon. I hate shorts I lost my SIPP because of them, but petition s don't work.
Probably not much changed at the site since I did geophysics over it in the 1980's , apart from maybe the surface scrape for a drive into the white rock, so not much point for a visit by me. Seeing the muon downhole survey work would be very interesting, but I doubt I could find the time for a 10 hour drive and overnight stay. If anyone has not visited the area, and have time, it's certainly worth going, Anglesey has plenty to offer for a holiday, particularly when the weather is good.
Croissant - I followed Wolf minerals for years and have started watching TUN. Has TUN mentioned the problem of clay? I believe it binded with the ore and made processing very difficult. Noise, I believe, was also a problem, but I think that was almost resolved before the money ran dry although I believe it impacted only a few properties. As for AYM, I think it will be far easier on the environmental side, as the site is more distant from property, locals have been very positive about the development and the company will be using modern mining techniques, such as dry waste disposal reducing the problems of mineralised water. Also having historic mine pits is useful as they can place any ore processing mills in them, reducing spread of noise, or milling could be done underground. Perhaps they could put up wind turbines and battery storage on the site and take environmental mining to the next step.
I came across this https://www.gov.wales/planning-policy-and-guidance-minerals-and-mining . The company had a Pre-Application Inquiry meeting with the Mineral Planning Authority and a number of statutory consultees back on the 5 April 2023 in Amlwch. See https://www.angleseymining.co.uk/parys-mountain-planning-application-update/
I assume there are deadlines in these procedures. I quote from above company RNS "The planning process allows for the statutory consultees to respond to the proposal with any concerns or queries regarding the project details. Subsequent to this consultation, the Company anticipates it will be required to complete an Environmental Impact Assessment" So what is the current situation on the planning process? In 6 weeks time it will be a year since the important field meeting!!
Patterdale. All very true. More info about AES here https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alliance_of_Sahel_States . Basically the AES group of countries are fed up with nations outwith there borders interfering. China is quite different, they will trade with any nation without interfering in politics although it must be said the large sums of money pumped into a developing nations infrastructure will impact, as does money anywhere. As for Kodal, China and the world, they need Lithium. Kodal and China have both shown respect for whoever is running Mali, this diplomacy matters. We need more diplomacy around the world, particularly with the dangers of climate change fast approaching. I consider my investment here relatively safe because of the important role funding from such projects will play in developing the Mali nation, the Mali government recognises this fact, development is far better than conflict.
A large trade was reported late. It appears the big seller is still around. To sell you need buyers so maybe price dropped to entice more buyers. Once the big seller has finished selling, or crosses certain percentage of ownership points then an RNS will need to be released. The same reporting standards apply to a big buyer. These large share transfers can happen over long time scales in order to maintain a stable market. It will be very interesting to see who is buying all these shares.
Adobe Premiere Pro prices are here, not the cheapest https://www.adobe.com/uk/creativecloud/plans.html . You mention the 'Gold standard' well the 'gold standard' disappeared decades ago. 'Elevate' is a greener solution, the solution for now and the future, creators will pick up on this aspect very quickly. Computer servers burn lots of energy, the most efficient software and 'bandwidth time', like for like, will win.
$12.99 per month for my holiday videos and occasional YouTube clips sounds an excellent starting point. Maybe at this lower price entry point a 'Powered by Blackbird' or the logo should appear as a non removable watermark for a few seconds in top left corner of output, just to let viewers know about the tech behind the video.
Sisteract. You talk nonsense re requirement for cash, I quote from RNS last September "Cash burn, excluding proceeds from share issues and transfers from short term investments, increased to £1,921k (6 months to 30 June 2022: £1,253k) due to lower revenues and higher staff costs to work on our Creator SaaS product
· Cash and short-term investments of £8,177k (30 June 2022: £11,586k) and no debt" So they look good for at least 2 years.
When we have very low risk stocks/funds like RIT valued at around 20% below NAV with a 2% div, I can see why larger investors are not flocking here. It does not matter what the company thinks it value should be, there is just not enough people investing in AIM stock because of the recession or because they have lost all on other AIM stock, like me. I'm holding what I can afford of these for the long term, at some point I hope they will see true value as we approach mine development.
