Morning CD. I really dont want to clog up this board about another company but since you asked I will reply and then anything else on GGP, please direct to that board.
GGP were clearly overextended at 38p, to the extent that I sold over 10m shares above 30p. It had assumed success in other 100% owned prospects. It had also had massive GDXJ buying which helped push it higher and many new investors were late to the party, as is often the case. The lower gold price and only the 'technical' success of the 100% owned prospect took the wind out of its sails and then the exiting CEOs selling added to that. It now has lost all its momentum.
Having said that, NCs drilling reports have given 16 out of 16 hugely successful results with mineralisation deeper and richer and expanded the known area to the north, south and east. One prominent poster has done the volumetrics (his skill set) and come up with potential/probable of many tens of millions of ozs of Au and about 3m tons of Cu, plus Co. This will probably turn out to be the largest deposit in Australian recent history and some more exciteable people think it could rival Kalgoorlie. The 4.2m Au eq MRE is completely irrelevant, its way way bigger than that. And its still open in most directions barring westerly if my memory serves me. The paterson district, where Havieron lies is now the hottest area in WA (as Sandeep Biswas recently said). Goliath another prospect, is 20 times the size of Havieron, with drilling results due.
Add to all that the other areas it owns. Newmont walked from Ernest Giles a few years ago saying 'not now' when metal prices were much much lower. There are a few million ozs in Tassie.
This is all in the great Tier 1 Australia, where assets trade at 2.5 times NAV according to Jonathan Guy, and a recent transaction was done at US$852 an oz.
Thats why I like GGP.
No point in going over Solgolds merits. We know those as thats why we are here.
Which has more upside? Dont know but I have a large bet on GGP and a relatively smaller (2.5m) bet on Solgold. Thats because one is under promising and over delivering and under NM (IMO) Solgold did the opposite. It takes a lot to regain investor trust. Keith Marshall is doing that slowly and I hope that his successor will keep it up.
The potential for Solgold is enormous, but so is GGP.
I also follow Chalice and de Grey in Australia, two other great success stories. Missed both!
I dont know whether thats answers your question CD, but I hope we can keep GGP to that board where the posters tend to know what they have got.
