The sooner we get some drilling results, the better. Then we can put these petty quarrels; or should I say, amusing quarrels?; behind us.

I am well-disposed to everyone who wishes well to the company; though this includes some eccentric characters (I certainly qualify; and our CEO probably does, too).

The London Stock Exchange website is more reliable on the data and the prices; but then one doesn't get the wit and the malice of the chatboard.

Hi, Sharetrader

Thanks for making me laugh by your post of 14.25 today. Ageos is good at what he does, which is geological commentary; but is the kind of man who would be satirised by Swift, Fielding or Dickens.

"Patricularly" indeed; must be a reference to my pater, whom I much miss. Should read "particularly."

You're right about this, Micky. I think on the main market, a buy and hold strategy is viable, patricularly with index trackers. But not here.

Hi, ST

In the London clubs, a man could be blackballed. But not here; and that's the problem.

And lower case letters. For my caps have been changed, too.

and another act of censorship, which i had failed to anticipate. two words with the same sound are called ****phones. we live in age of neo-puritanism.

i see that the vigilance of the social police has censored my last message; suffice to say that the missing word was a ****phone of hoar, as in hoar frost (though some of them are said to be hot, rather than cold).

hi, rob

you could try a literary quotation (though not alexander pope, "every woman is a ***** at heart"). he likes those.

I agree with Sharetrader on this. It's silly to sell now. The big risk was the purchase of MMA falling through (which I thought was quite likely at one point). That is now behind us.

A fund-raise is not a big risk; it's an inconvenience, like shaving or going to the loo. But neither of those is a reason for selling.

It's good to see Brad tweeting away so happily again. But I'm with John on this. £50 or £100k is nothing to a man of his substance, and if he believes in the cause, he should invest. Without any reference to his daughter's school fees, which is what he said last time.

Hi, KB

You are right, it's a very basic point, which (as far as I know) no-one else has made. If Newmont and Agnico did not think this was a viable project, which will go into production, they would never have accepted the deal.

Dr,

Don't get into a quarrel with bhargav. He will always win, by degrading you to his level.

Best wishes

Hi, Maisie

I know that I have praised those who have mocked you in the past (for some functions should be out-sourced); but, as it happens, I do agree with you on this. The future fior OMI is good. Despite Zak Mir.

Best wishes

A recommendation from Zak Mir is the kiss of death, in my view.

Hi, Rob @22.13 yesterday

I didn't know gold was an investment asset in the 1070's. William the Conqueror should have invested.

Maybe you meant 1970's (when I was a stockbroker).

Best wishes

It's good to see people more cheerful; and I include the CEO in that.

The key question for the next fund raise is the discount. How large will it be? 25%, 10% or zero?

Brad is well-aware of this; and has said as much in an email to me. If it's done after a successful drill result, it should be zero (for the warrants will be a sufficient incentive to those who buy in). Zero is certainly possible, for I have seen it in other junior mineral explorers.

Hi, Dr

I don't approve of personal insults; but broadly speaking, agree with the sentiment expressed. The board would be better off without him; and he would be better off doing something else with his time.
