And don't knock the Reliant - quality quirky British car! Wish I could put a smiley face after that.....

You are so much more diverse in your holdings than me. I am far more parochial, but at least I have expanded beyond the safe 'big name' stocks to tiddlers like AAU. Interesting that you should land on the ones you do out of the thousands out there. Presume you follow some tips?
I like the Mustang (and GT40 of course). May have said before that the Ford dealers are wise and pop a new or nearly new Mustang on every forecourt here to sucker the punters in and flog them a bit of mundane tinware. I like the Camaro too, be great over here on our small roads!

Nice to see a SP rise today.
That's one hell of a statement to say you'd put your life in the hands of the Boss of a company you have shares in - he's not a medical doctor you know!
I don't proffer an estimation of the eventual share price. Like others I'd like to see £1 as a first stage. I'd also like to see no reports in the 6 months following FOIL that getting the stuff out of the fractured basement is going to be a tad tricky. Personal opinion is that if that were not still in some sort of lingering doubt then HUR would have been taken out by now, probably by BP.
But what do I know?

I assume that's you, though I'm logged in now so cant read your drivel because of the filter.
Do us all a favour and don't start talking about soup. You've already embarrassed yourself sufficiently on another board banging on about that.

blocking not clocking!

Hi
Re Dinokens post, do we know when 'sometime in the next year' is? Is there still any prospect of the authorities clocking this takeover? Thanks in advance

Think you are talking into thin air mate, the special ones posts appear to have disappeared into the ether. I dont know why people are unpleasant (at least proactively, I can be a bit sharp when crossed) like that, I could never be. Never mind, move on.
By coincidence I sold out my remaining United Utilities (the first ones held since 2003) and National Grid shares this morning, and topped up.......with more Lloyds. I am unhappy with utility shares that now fluctuate with comrade Corbyns popularity poll ratings rather than their fundamentals. Also looking at GSK as a dividend share.
I quite often trade in and out of individual holdings but don't with AAU. Not because I wouldnt, just that the spread is usually bonkers. Have a good day all.

Pretty much agree, certainly the implication at AS was that Kizilcukur results are good, though not said explicitly for obvious reasons. I doubt I will attend the AGM, happy to attend just the (apparently twice yearly) presentations where the focus is purely on operations rather than governance formalities. Will appreciate a precis by someone of anything significant. As for whether a good time to invest....time alone will tell, we have said 'now is the time' many times before, one day we will (hopefully) be finally right!

Quite surprised that there is still no RNS about the recent Kizilcukur mining. Have seen it suggested that this may be delayed because discussions are nearing conclusion about inclusion in the current JV or some alternative. That could give reasonable impetus to SP if good news. Looks like average gold price over this quarter is going to be appreciably lower than Q1, silver even more so.

Well, here they are. Looks as expected, slightly higher net result (by my calculations) than Q4 2018 - lower production & higher costs more than compensated for by significantly higher adjusted gold price.
Bit of a leap in costs, still way below the long term predicted $600 per oz but worth noting

Its the weekend so we can be off topic.
Hyundai have come on so much, and now produce fine cars. The image is still that of cheap alternative Asian imports here, but that image should improve with time. I was watching an article on Youtuber 'Hoovies Garage' (an American automotive vlogger who I find very entertaining) only yesterday about the progress Hyundai have made with their big cars since the early 2000s. Your car shares the same power output as my recently acquired old Porsche! Bet my car is quicker though......

In your heart you know the answer to that Chris!

Hi Van, Thanks for posting.
i did notice all the chat on the other board. To be honest too much speculation by amateur (biased) geologists for me, I'm sure Dr S will give an objective appraisal in due course, hopefully by the end of June.

DJ
Yes, been a reasonable week with some tweets and interviews you should catch up with. Very positive.
What wheels are you driving these days?

As I understand it RC drilling grinds it up and spits it out in a stream of water. I presume they divide and label output at each depth to get an idea of the structure but it would not give such a precise picture as a core sample. It is however much cheaper and faster, and areas of particular interest could subsequently be targeted by a core sample if deemed necessary. Maybe the crumbs containing gold naturally fracture under the process? I don't know!

Thanks Jupiter
Very good interview, and has confirmed that the drilling results last week were totally as expected and not the disappointment that some posters thought they were. It seems that it was part of a process to confirm the modelling was correct beyond Arzu North, and achieved that.
Kizilcukur results sound maybe a few more days off, quarterly figures fairly imminent. And I really like the hint that more than 2000 meters may be RC drilled in this Salinbas session if things continue to progress as well as they are. I noted confirmation that mineralisation was being intercepted as expected, always good to hear.
I cant help but like this Company, its doing well and communicates impressively. As i've said previously, unless Dr S is an Oscar standard actor this looks very good indeed.

I'd want one. Looks warm!

Quite a cosy scene with the plastic chairs and the pub umbrella!

Quite surprised these haven't been published yet, the equivalent announcement last year was a week ago on May 9th. Not trying to imply anything, just noting - could be just enough to finally push the SP decisively above 2p, even though the actual numbers are fairly predictable

Do us a favour mate and go and knit some yogurt. People on this board have acted very respectfully to your comments. We have a right to make our investments, provided they are legal, where and when we want.
If you don't like Hurricane, and I appreciate you don't, then don't invest in it. Don't have anything to do with it. Whether you like it or not the World Economy is currently dependant on oil. If that were to significantly diminish overnight, like you may want, the social unrest would probably make World War 2 look like a minor Saturday night fistfight. As for Hurricane, in the grand scheme of things it is tiny, and if success (or otherwise) of Hurricane is not in my opinion going to make your utopia either more or less likely.
