Value in Years to come17 Dec 2020 13:56
Interesting thoughts from 'Bamps' on GGP board who I have a great deal of respect for as an analyst ;
' I haven't the relative figures to be able to provide a Net Asset Value per share based on 40 years inflation. What I do know is in the years to come Gold finds will become smaller, the norm will be 1m oz or less. The large finds might never be repeated, gold will become rarer and more expensive. At $1,400 an ounce should leave enough headroom for $500+ AISC.
Experts are forecasting $5,000-10,000 an ounce in the next few years , copper is shortly to reach it's all time highs and become rarer. Globally we need 2 copper mines every year of 500,000 tons pa to meet demand, that isn't happening. Mines with a Tier 1 gold asset and a tier 1 copper asset are not coming on the market. The NAV value will increase accordingly'
Given Rambler is already in production and the company refinanced albeit through placing funds all augers well for the future With assets of £3.2B of copper and £500m of gold potential and a relatively new 'turnaround' CEO in charge I cannot see why this company cannot, with skilful management return at least 10 times the current share price within the year. Even then it would only make the MC $230m which is still a tiny MC for a gold/copper producer today. I haven't researched enough to work out the complexity of extracting and processing the minerals and costs but given it is a working mine the basis to the operation already exists. My understanding historically is that the problems were financial as opposed to the asset not being extractable. The board have addressed this issue albeit diluting the hell out of the share but hopefully it gives the company a new start.
