Gold is up nearly 44% in the last twelve months, POX savings are paltry by comparison. But the hold off on dividend payments said to be caused by the POX buildout is weighing heavily on the stock price. (Though I’d have thought that this is the intention).

Look at all the facts.

"POx is better when highest gold recovery is required"

Yes that's true, but when no quantative numbers are quoted, the statement really means nothing. One would have to take into account the longer build out times and the higher cost of the POX plant (and running costs) and facture those in too.

That gold prices have risen so much and that this has not been taken into account in future earnings is just holding the price down for some unknown reason.

interesting reading.

“as identified in the cost comparison above,the albion processtm has a lower capital intensity and lower operating cost than the traditionalpox process. the simplicity of the albion processtm flowsheet results in a smaller number of unit operations, simple plant layout, moderate operating temperature and atmospheric leach conditions. in addition to the cost advantages of the albion processtm,the chemistry associated with the process presents a number of advantages. the advantages associated with the albion processtm chemistry include;

fixing impurities in an inert residue with limestone with no production of sulphur dioxide, fixing of ****nic as ferric ****nateand the continual neutralisation of iron and acid in the process.

less tangible advantages of the albion processtm are based around the relatively simple unit operations. including the requirements for a less technically skilled workforce to operate and maintain the plant. in addition, the advantage of a fast ramp-up of the circuit to nameplate capacity avoids costly delays which have the potential to damage the business case".

"the albion processtm process exhibits a shorter project implementation time, reduced technical complexity with

resultant benefits of simplification, higher utilisation and reliable metallurgical performance. the higher

recovery of pox must be balanced against these other project parameters in determining the optimum project

economics".

with the near 40% increase in gold price (probably 5% to 10% when the pox was started) why was the small increase in pox gold recovery even a factor?

PS. I assume that Freedom Global and Freedom Finance are one and the same.

Who do people recommend to sell shares? I’m a UK resident citizen. Any thoughts on Freedom Broker (Freedom Global), Woods and Co and Freedom Finance Global? (I have certs, registered with Taby’s).

Thanks for the assistance.

"a house with firepower can move the price 100 cents higher or lower."

Yes, it can. Remind us all, where has it gone in the last year? We all know that stocks can go down and up.

MB07

Other than bashing the stock, what are your reasons for thinking it will go lower?

Are you saying that there is more bad news on the way? (unlikely if management are to have any respect at all).

Surely they cannot push the POX out further still.

"Polymetal announced decision today launch POX 2029."

Notice that the share price had been stabilizing at 3.8, with the odd blip up to 3.9. This is their way of batting it down again, lest others start buying a rising stock with potential. It also says that they are pushing dividends out further, yet again dampening any good news.

GLASH.

"Probably sick of you moaning retail scum".

So, either you're not a shareholder, are scum yourself or are a shill for the company. Take your pick.

Really, why would that be? Are you saying that in the real world there are no problems with what has been done to Core?

Are you actually saying that this result was the best and only option?

I find that very hard to believe.

There are many other far more liquid exchanges that would have no problem Core listing on them. Or are you saying that all the russian board members will have resigned by 2028? That seems unlikely to me. (Unless they will all be replaced by Omani's that is).

JSP.

I don't believe you. It's certainly is not the country I see every day. You must be one of the F' guys cult. As k his where all his brexit dividends are, I notice your mate has come up with NOTHING!

Really comrade? So you think that your country is better? What is the standard of living like? What is the life expectancy?

"In general, life expectancy is higher in the UK than in Russia. In 2020-2022, life expectancy in the UK was 78.6 years for males and 82.6 years for females. In Russia, life expectancy at birth was 67.57 years for males and 77.77 years for females in 2022. This indicates a difference of roughly 11 years for men and 5 years for women.

Maybe you should read some truth rather than your propaganda bosses instructions.

Urraca

You seem unused to the world of economics, one of the main drivers for higher national expenditure is the rise of pension costs and reduction of direct taxation due to an aging population, this is common in all of the first world. This also requires more healthcare. Doing what farage advocates and using the American model would cost £Billions more as is shown.

So...do you advocate euthanasia for the elderly or the sick??

Show us all a right wing government anywhere in the world that has been good for the majority of their population?

Urraca

Continued.

You said...

"while taxes are at a historic high".

The reality is...

"UK was a high-tax country in the 1960s (Heading)

As shown in the chart above, the past 20–30 years have seen taxes rise in most (though by no means all) developed economies. On average, OECD

countries saw tax revenue rise from 32.4% of GDP

over 1990–99 to 34.1% in 2021. This broadly reflects the UK’s own experience, with tax revenue rising from 30.8% of GDP

to 33.5% over the same period. Over a longer period, taxes in the UK have risen by less than in most other OECD

countries. As a result, the UK has gone from being a high-tax country in the 1960s to a relatively low-tax country today."

"People have had enough of being lied to".

So, tell us all of three, only three costed, objective benefits and their financial level. (I know you cannot). The one lying is your hero. Maybe you should try telling yourself the truth.

Urraca.

As tRump said "I love the uneducated".

"Estimates for the annual cost of Brexit to the UK vary, but many sources point to a significant financial impact. Bloomberg reported that Brexit is costing the UK economy £100 billion a year. The Office for Budget Responsibility calculated that Brexit would cost 4% of GDP per annum over the long term, which could translate to a £32 billion cost per annum. Additionally, some reports suggest that the UK is experiencing a reduction in GDP due to Brexit."

"Estimates of the annual cost of Brexit to the UK vary significantly, but generally suggest a substantial economic impact. Some analyses indicate a yearly loss of £100 billion to £140 billion. Other research suggests a loss of around £32 billion per year, or 4% of GDP. Some estimates focus on specific areas like lost trade, with one review finding a loss of £27 billion in the first two years. "

"the people voted for Brexit, it was bot forced on us by Farage."

How many lies were told by farage to entice people to vote leave? Please tell us all, what of farages promises has come true?

You should read up before you show your lack of knowledge.

"As a percentage of GDP: In 2022, the UK spent 11.3% of its GDP on health, ranking 6th in the OECD and 5th in the G7. This is above the OECD average of 9.2%, but lower than the US (16.6%) and Germany (12.6%).

Per capita spending:

The UK's publicly funded health spend per person was $4,479 in 2022, which was significantly lower than Germany ($6,930) and the Netherlands ($5,672), according to a 2025 dentistry analysis. In fact, nine of the EU14 countries spent more on health care per head than the UK in 2022.

Efficiency: While the UK spends less per person on health, it can also be more efficient in its use of resources. For example, the UK has a high proportion of spending on generic drugs, which are cheaper but chemically identical to their branded counterparts.

Capital expenditure: The UK lags behind other countries in its capital investment in healthcare, including infrastructure and equipment.

So, are you and your master going to consign people to the scrap heap? Or is it that farage who takes money from the U.S health industry pushes that con over here?

The boad need the excuse of the build out to hold up dividends being paid, when being on a liquid market would allow cheap finance to be raised. I think that some or one of the major shareholders have no liking for "the little guys" recieving any of "their" companies profits back. It also ploughs money back into the company, making it intrinsically more valuable but with no increase in share price, so a real bargain when sell out happens. Remember it keeps the company performance under the radar and the share price low in that way too. All in line with their future plans.

Hopeful.

Correct, the "F" guy has already said that he favours the American insurance healthcare model, even though it's well known that the NHS treatment costs are 40% or less of what the yanks have to pay. Only problem, his supporters are so hung up on prejudice, and the relative pennies spent on migrants they don't see the hundreds of billions he's cost via brexit or that those losses would double if the NHS was lost. (Not to mention the thousands who would die through health cost poverty) As tRump himself said (and farage relies on),

"I love the uneducated".

"Conclusion

The simplest message that can be drawn from this brief overview is that the US and British systems of healthcare both have strengths and weaknesses. The USA achieves better outcomes than the UK among older people with cancer, although the differences may be smaller than is often reported. By contrast, outcomes among young people with chronic diseases are much worse in the USA than the UK. And the racial differences in outcome for cancer and other chronic diseases in the USA are at least as wide as the socioeconomic inequalities in Britain.

Beyond these simple comparisons lie some important lessons for policy. The USA spends three times as much per person on healthcare than does the UK. Even allowing for the higher transaction costs arising from multiple payers, the absence of pharmaceutical cost controls and the higher cost of malpractice insurance, the USA should be expected to achieve much better outcomes from treatable conditions than the UK. In some aspects, it does. Where individuals have access to this well-resourced healthcare system, as do all Americans over the age of 65 years, the results are good. Others are not so fortunate, and there are wide disparities associated with race and insurance status".

PS.

I would assume that these rail trucks were mostly empty, to be refilled with ore for future return to the POX.

Scooters.

You may be right in what you say, but what's still to be seen is whether this is good or not for the present Solidcore shareholders.

Selevi.

"64 wagons left Kyzyl heading to Amursk POX, full of Refractory Ore. The same batch. Weeks later, 128 wagons returned"

It seems odd to me that double the number of wagons returned when the stuff in them is called "concentrate". I would assume that the processed stuff could come back on a truck! (Though a very valuable one). But who can tell what's happening these days.
