I'm delighted to be back up at 0.7 on the bid. The worry I have is not about Thor; it's about a general market collapse, caused by rising interest rates or war in Europe. We just have to hope it doesn't happen.

Hi, cj

It's an illusion. We're not up 8%. I sold some on Friday at 14 pence, to pay for the wine and the cider; and if you sold now, you wouldn't get that.

It's nice to see Brad with his boots on the ground. I never liked him being thousands of miles away in Western Australia.

The 40% decline in bitcoin (since November) may help us. Money coming out of there has to go somewhere; and at least we're doing something useful.

Nice to see the volume picking up.

Hi, Tweenie

I think they got it in the right order. It's better to have bad news followed by good, rather than good followed by bad.

Thanks for the link, Mullins. Paul Johnson is excellent, as always. We're all indirectly invested in POW, because Pilot Mountain was paid for mostly in shares.

Yes, I was misled by Berenberg, too.

Hi, herne

You have a suspicious mind; and your suspicions are probably correct.

It's good to see a bit of volume behind the rise. £63k would count as nothing for GGP; but for Thor, it's substantial. And it's only mid-day.

The RNS contains one statement which is not altogether correct. "The lithium potential on the Ragged Range Project area has not been previously considered." Considered by whom? Orion posted about it last Thursday.

Hi, Paul @11.41

The "board and management" section of the website has been updated, to show Potter as the non-executive chairman; but, as you say, the "contact" section has not. I will send them a message about this.

On your substantive point in para 1, yes, I agree. Potter ran a successful hedge fund, and is chief investment officer of Metal Tiger. He will arrange any joint ventures, etc; while Nicole does the geology.

Don't be angry, it's not good for one's health.

Hi, User @14.50

I'm with you on this. Exploration companies don't always find what they're looking for. And machinery sometimes malfunctions. I don't see why we should blame this on Nicole. These things happen, and one should remain cheerful in adversity.

As for the naysayers, they're not all the same. Beaub11 shows a charming literary quality in para 1 of 1508; which has not so far been manifest in the messages of bsg (though he has been right on the most important matter, which is the share price).

Hi, Tweenie @12.41

On para 2, you may be right that the major shareholders (Metal Tiger, Artemis, et al) knew about this before we did. But it's made no difference, for they've not sold. Volume has been so low for the last three months, that it's not possible for any large holding to have been unloaded. In other words, we've all taken the losses together.

Hi, Star @17.41

That first sentence ("when we see episodes like this," etc) is exactly what Pierre Lassonde said in an interview about a year ago. So you're in good company.

Hi, Ken

Thanks for the posts. I always appreciate someone who knows what he's talking about.

I thought it was an excellent interview. It takes two to tango, Donald Leggatt was good on the questions, and Brad on the answers.

The share price is likely to go sideways, until further drilling results.

The bid price (which is what matters to holders) is up on where it was a few days ago; 0.65 instead of 0.6. Sometimes there are illusory movements in the mid-price caused by the jobbers narrowing or widening the spread.
