Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Govts main concern appears to be not overwhelming the Health service into meltdown, though its pretty damn close without Covid. BBC Question Time Sandwell was a good ref point regarding investigating the current policy. As health service staff go down with it , it seems almost certain Hospitals will reject all but the most ill and will be best avoided at all costs
Not closing schools , kids infect each other, extremely low death rate from the age group 0.2%. Kids go home infect parents deaths 0.2-0.4%, parents visit and care for grandparents death rate for aged 50 upwards rises from 1.3% to circa 15% for those aged 80+. On notes and coins the virus can last from 3 hours to a day, so get out those contactless cards and a jam jar of mild bleach to dump change in. Oh and C lasts longer on cardboard so Amazon shares ought to suffer
Safety... Momentum's coup was designed to take over the resources, brand and Commons footprint of the Party. They're uninterested in actual power just eternal campaigning and the cash to stand accrued by selling off assets and the tied hands of certain unions. The greatest sin has been the total lack of an effective opposition
Re Oldschool: Does Labour even exist anymore , surely the current experiment and hijack is ongoing, the self deception and Newspeak regarding failure at the election continues whilst the majority of current clowns standing served in Corbyn's non - cabinet, the one where the gates to the kingdom were guarded by Momentum and The beloved Leader could not be approached . Meanwhile Jon Lansman is heavily entrenched in the Corbyn phase 2 candidate
When terrorists stalk the streets , every MP gets security cover and police protection, when Pestilence rides out even the minor ranks are given opportunities to withdraw from public.....And you can believe the future's ahead.....
I'll give the young the right to vote as soon as they mature
But spare the rod and spoil the child to help them feel secure
And if I win election day I might give you a job
I'll sign a bill to help the poor to show I'm not a snob
I'll open my door I'm charging no admission
And you can be sure I'll give you my hand
I want to grow up to be a politician......
All this with impunity, but only when we've reached herd immunity
Of course they have, and you also believe the Labour Party sorted their Jewish problem , Jeremy was the next messiah and Donald T is completely truthful. Meanwhile the country that situated a disease research lab next door to an unregulated animal food market reveals its next news item

Re HBob: Really?You obviously haven't thought it through. The source of all widespread Coronavirus based illness-Chyna. Bird flu, MARS,Sars and the current one. All supposedly starting in the animal markets (food) , Though there is talk of the latest being an escapee from a Lab. . All can be seen as investigations into distribution of a bio weapon. This latter one is great because the infected spread the disease for a time without knowing they're infected. However , who benefits the most from this pandemic? All first World countries have pension black holes, lower birth rates, populations skewed to the elderly, housing shortages and issues with care . In one fell swoop Coronavirus gets rid of aged bed blockers, dementia and Alzheimer's suffers , reducing the pressure on the Health Service. Releases the dead's homes onto the market partially relieving the housing crisis and depressing the cost of housing because of the increasing availability. Could it be the whole debacle is something hatched by the Bilderberg Group , piggy backing on China's bio weapons development programme. Think you've got to look beyond Boris. NB all of this is fictional supposition no matter how well it fits the model DYOR or crazed conspiracy theory. Bottom line is we're dooooomed but only about 1 in 6 aged 70+ with a hugely decreasing death rate below that age. On the interview the 500 infected in the UK became between 5 000 to 10 000 best treat the whole institutional advice as incompetent and take your own precautions GLA
The RNS page shows no longer available????? ... Elsewhere...Régua, Portugal
The first blast at the Régua mine in Northern Portugal was safely and successfully completed last week. Mining operations have been underway since February and the first blast signifies an important milestone for the project. The blast opens up the RL240m adit zone which will cover 122 metres prior to intersecting ore. The ore will be trucked to the Crusher Plant which will be located in a nearby aggregate quarry for initial processing.
Engineering and procurement is advanced for construction of the Régua plant. In addition to existing spirals, pumps and screens on-site, a new VSI mill (Vertical Shaft Impactor) has been procured from Spain.
La Parrilla, Spain
Ramp-up is progressing and the mine continues to deliver the scheduled grades of tungsten and tin ore to the plant at low waste-to-ore strip ratios. As part of the ramp up process, a series of improvement initiatives were successfully implemented during a planned shutdown in February 2020 and as a result the Company has seen a material step change improvement in recoveries and overall production rates at the La Parrilla plant in March 2020.
A full update on La Parrilla production for the March quarter and further guidance in relation to developments at Régua will be provided in April 2020.
Michael Masterman, Chairman of W, commented : "It is very important to have a safe and successful start to our mining operation at Régua. The portal to the underground mine is now open and we will progress trial mine operations over the next two months."
Dr Byron Pirola Retires as Director
After 12 years as a Director, Dr Byron Pirola will retire from the W Resources Plc Board on 30 March 2020. Dr Pirola intends to retain his core shareholding in the Company.

We will miss Byron from the Board but are very pleased he plans to continue as a strong core shareholder."
Dr Byron Pirola, commented: "Following many years on the Board of Directors, I am pleased to leave it in a strong position with an expanded board, and our key asset in production ramp-up. While my increasing business demands mean I will be unable to continue to give my Board duties the attention they require, in resigning from the Board, I remain a strong supportive shareholder of the Company and look forward to its ongoing success."
Shades Hyacinth Bucket of there lol
In the interests of superiority that Git has ordained on me I think I must tell you its's not a farm......its an estate!
Apart from that in general agreement. The markets are enjoying a bounce today with the budget coming , Bank of England announcing interest rates on March 26th and Euro Bank probably cutting interest rates further.
Still we have a few months of this and the volatility isn't ending anytime soon
DB the general decline could be put down to the steel issue , the plunge is obviously a result of the spreading orange drink.
Industry all over is down , oil war on price price per barrel has dropped to around $30. Car production is down markedly, exports from China coming to a standstill.NYSE closed to prevent a run. Finance firms at Canary Wharf booking property in Croydon to keep on dealing. This issue is a broad spectrum. Lots of money to be made over the next few months . This is only the beginning . Although they're ripping clothes and wailing , there are only a few cases currently in any one area of the uk...ie city or county.Herts and I think Cornwall has double figure , the rest from 0 to 4 cases so not exactly rampant currently. It'll get worse before it gets better. For Wres there cold be a short term collapse in demand for our product whist the company continues to be cash poor
Rude, that's thin skinned. Take another look and exercise a little comprehension, then enjoy xmas
Didn't think after all the MM ers and ums we'd be as low as this, took the opportunity to top up a couple of days ago, with the dip below envelopes and the Bolingers plus MACD. Sorry Kev know you hate trawling near the historic bottom. Soulsister still banging that old troll drum that's so favoured here and replaces insight and intelligent investing. .Thought we'd sustain that mid 30's to 40's . Let's hope MM can't dilute or keep taking loans in the new year. Let's hope he can flog ore to make the development of the other projects self sustaining over the next 10 years.
Have a Happy Xmas all and remember Santa is so happy because he knows where all the naughty girls are
Yet he was prepared to give the Gold prospect away initially, so the statement doesn't hold up. 7 years waiting and yet more loans to pay back , we need them otherwise down the tubes. Another set of mines to develop, more prospecting and despite expecting an upturn 2 months back we still need some good income news from P and hopefully-though I'm not truly thinking there will be no slippage,- production from R
meant to add opinion here matters not a jot
The market decides ,( circa 50% drop this year, the prospective production late and ongoing loans) . Small time investors looking for a quick turnover and needing cash for Xmas
Agree with most except the delay not being significant to the cash burn, fund raising, further dilution or loans suppression of the SP, so that matters
About time , late but only by 2-3 weeks, not so much given the history here . K3V you and others make too much of declaring all and sundry trolls, hopefully we can see a steady rise in production and concentrate on developing the other prospects without the need for further dilution or fund raising but using Parilla income . Would be tremendous if production from Parilla actually moved us into positive income flow
be caaareful you're on the verge of Islamophobia RK
