Mattpr1 - if you invested here it was your own choice, nobody twisted your arm.

You are fighting with your own judgement on the board not with us.

Roger mk2.

Its just an investment you make your choice and stand or fall by your judgement.

Yes, George being swayed is easy.

I get the feeling that a core of us use this board only as extra sets of eyes and banter. We make our choice stick with it unless something catastrophic occurs and if we gain it is by time in the market not timing the market.

We have our entry point, keep our exit point to ourselves get to that point and then review the company again in case we move our exit point forwards to another company event.

We get called rampers or whatever - but really are just boring old school investors.

Others dance around all over the shop.

Not a bad overview

Beware the ones sponsored by the investment companies. A bit like a renewable energy paper sponsored by an oil company.

Same with every share I have invested in, get rises before the event because people ride the wave and try and make a profit trading, some win others do not. The losers remain moping about on the chat boards.

When it actually comes to the crunch point of whether a business succeeds or not loads run for the hills then sit on the sidelines trying to jump back in if they think an RNS has made it safer or there is a bit of trading to be done.

It is the same every time.

Same with investing in funds credit crunch arrives not many new investors, market rises and they start investing, weirdly right up to the peak.

I think many people have written about this behaviour already in many books etc - common knowledge.

Difficult to overcome animal instincts in many situations - investing is one of the major ones.

Sorry

Everyone seen this

Vast site with much of the work connecting one element to another buried underground and therefore not visible.

They are flying but best to relax and not time pressure yourself.

Full optimised production by the end of March I reckon as I previously estimated when our ship had to take a detour.

Steve could maybe give a very quick video overview of everything built to date and not worry that most would not understand what he meant, they could spend a week looking everything up and take the heat off them a bit.

Yes I do too Ricardo, I really don't understand the West in these matters.

As an example Israel were fighting Hamas, however in Gaza there are a further 8 or 9 terrorist groups, one of which is ISIS with a compound and a flag flying. Why were they not taken out?

Ukraine supplying rebels in Northern Mali connected to terrorist groups trafficking people into Europe, but France etc did nothing about them when they were present.

Mind boggling.

Ricardo it is good that they are taking seriously their security, but hopefully they do not over do it and give themselves too big an annual overhead.

If Europe gets to grips with illegal migrants that should be 25% or more northern Mali border problem gone, as the global terrorists are involved with this.

If the Burkina Faso war could end that would be a lot of the gun running between Faso and the global terrorist gangs on the northern Mali border.

There apparently are some gangs/terrorists controlling some forests with borders and taxing illegal loggers which I don't fully understand what is being run over those borders.

Basically it is terrorists controlling border crossing points for financial gain using any means they can, local rebels whatever.

The UN didn't gain control of any of it or France. Maybe Goita working with Burkina Faso and Niger may have better luck.

Who knows with investors what the trigger could be.

A lot of other share failure baggage carries over with completely different scenarios.

Onlyking good spot. Edging closer.

Pullone, taken at Dawn or just before dusk to avoid heat haze/bleached look see the long shadows.

The other one was an amateurs error.

PS

Point being if the plant never worked properly all the other factors, resource upgrade, offtake signed etc hold almost zero additional value.

If Bernard wants the share price higher after production is proven (as most CEOs would), disclosing an offtake and or resource upgrade before we go through the trauma of plant optimisation would be wasted releases.

George, we don't often disagree, but I think rolling before your two competing ideas.

People are talking as if we are a miner and own part of a mine because we have a hole in the ground and the majority of a plant.

We aren't we are still an explorer, who are funded.

People are counting chickens ahead of being a miner.

When the cheques land and the plant is hitting a viable input to output we are miners. Not before.

Did anyone see the ponds, tanks etc for water to the plant on LinkedIn.

The picture afterwards was posted, never saw that one.

Looking good.

Halm=half

Remember once it does work Steve is going to be stopping and adjusting at least one of the plants for at least 4 weeks maybe longer to get optimum output and quality.

So the priority is only the plant spinning and material exiting which is saleable.

Offtake etc has time not the immediate priority.

It is simple enough, much like a factory which once complete as an example could be worth £2m with profits each year estimated at £500,000 once in full swing.

Three quarters built which idiot would you expect to pay £2m for the building and which idiot would pay a premium for the future income based on the full halm million per year?

Some insane comments.

The mine needs finishing and proving it works as designed. Then it is a working producing mine and carries that revaluation.

George, lipstick now, I use Duck Duck Go, so they get no cookies, they are trying to flog me anything.

Lol George I am updating my Will, thank you for the heads up, I will take that into consideration.

They will sell out but it is supposed to be orderly. Massive gains on the 3m shares over 1200%. 0.03125p per share.

I can't see why a company trying to sell its shares at some point would wreck the share price and take a fraction of the value they could have taken.
