Another reassuring part of the interview is that Tranche 2 is not dependent on BP Mine . No connection to funding . I think a few traders were linking these 2 and may have kept out for that reason, hope they get the message now ...

http://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/stocktube/9232/vast-resources-readying-itself-for-the-next-phase-of-growth--9232.html Ap explaining the next phase of growth , brilliant PR Andrew

http://m.miningweekly.com/article/vast-achieves-record-q1-gold-production-in-zim-mercuria-offtake-finalised-2018-05-08/rep_id:3861 very good positive read guys

TBT Mugabee is summonsed to Zim tomorrow to discuss the meddling in the Merange fields. will be interesting to see the outcome of this when he gets a grilling..

Pleasantly surprised , we all knew full well Vast had engaged into a significant pre-strip for the OT so fully expected low milled figures. But what is extremely pleasing and bodes very well for the next quarterlies is the significant grade increase in the CU, also the reduction in April of waste mined. PP is performing brilliantly and i expect this growth to continue into the full production of sulphides. AP is keeping the market informed and has Vast running like clockwork it seems, remember guys the pre-strip was a necessity for mercuria the $90 billion company that is backing vast. look forward to the conference call at 11.

Prempum can you please explain your rational behind your thinking , I for 1 am perplexed at your findings and find it hard to understand anyone who has researched Vast to come up with such thoughts . I am sure the other guys would like some sort of explanation too. I think I can see what lines your on but BP for some reason seems the holy grail yes it’s the key of the door but the way AP is driving this business and his recent acquisitions BP is being over shadowed by some of the other assets , take Zargre for instance possibly the biggest copper mine in Europe . May I suggest you pick out the top posters on here and listen to them they have a great angle on the way this business is rapidly changing under AP. Lee

Third man giant mine is next to the PP mine , Andrew eluded to giant in his last podcast staring we will be starting a drill programme. This will sure up the resources through the drill programme and Jorc . I would also expect later this year for the drill programme to start on the Zarge License areas . It’s certainly an interesting time ahead for Vast .

Star i do not disagree about the broker notes , but if investors took the time to perform more in-depth valuations themselves they would come up with a MCAP of around the same figure... But on the other hand independent broker notes do add some significant value and are very helpful.. i wonder if we will be getting 1 of these in the future??

AP podcast� Vast have agreed an M.O.U with BOD (James Campbell) who has extensive knowledge of diamond claims in Zimbabwe and has spent many years researching and studying the diamond field. This sits very closely with AFCR (Vast Resources) historical diamond claims, which we all know is the Marange Diamond fields. AP has entered into this M.O.U to use the expertise of BOD which will set up a new vehicle as a JV in which to raise cash without dilution to Vast Shareholders. Later in the interview AP states that he met many of the mining minsters last week and previously in Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe is certainly open for business with the elections coming up in July Vast is looking to close out as many deals as possible before the elections. The Money required to complete these transactions will be mainly funded by our strategic partners in Zimbabwe SSGI. Does this leave the door open for the reclaim of the Marange Fields?? I certainly feel this could be the case, why enter into an M.O.U if communications hadn�t taken place??? Proof of the statement open for business was seen in Vast with the acquisition of the Eureka mine, in which Vast claimed a 23.7% stake in costing Vast shareholders nothing. The Eureka mine has had $30 Million spent on it with the infrastructure already in place, our strategic partners are now assessing and performing test work to find the best way to move forward with the mine.. Pickstone peerless mine is performing very well and is a profitable asset. Shortly Vast will be following the process to get money out of Zimbabwe , something that vast has never tried before. There was talk not too long ago about the issuing of dividends from Zimbabwe, could this be the start of the dividends and taking money out of Zimbabwe for shareholders. Giant Mine and Eureka are being prepared for Drill Programmes.. Manaila is performing very well and to its capacity of the old plant, this is after an extensive pre strip programme for the Mercuria pre-payment off-take agreement. The first shipment of this agreement has been shipped 600 tonnes of copper concentrate and 200 tonnes of Zinc concentrate. New plant for the manaila / carlibaba will be placed in July/August. BP Andrew clearly stated that Vast are extremely confident that the B.P License will be grants very soon. Quarterly production figures out next week. Possible update on B.P License. Possible further acquisition�s in Zimbabwe. S.P sitting at .57 , seriously undervalued on current assets as per Broker notes of (EV 1.3p), not factored in any of the recent news or the possibility of any of the above�

Great post FTB , thanks for your research

Perroverde thanks for the post very informative, Vast & Botswana have signed the MOU. WHY WHY WHY is what the market and investors need to realise , there must have been some communication with the Zim Gov. menengawe has opened the country to business , think about this seriously Marange could solve a massive part of the economic situation Zim is currently in. Yes this used to be a little sparkle in the distance , well for me it’s now become a very serious possibility. Thanks perroverde

Castaway this as you say could be key to unlocking the Marange fields . M.o.u does not get signed between Vast and Botswana diamonds for nothing . Is the unexpected just about to become a reality for Vast with Ap in charge who knows

Really well said Castaway , I’ll back that up with AP will reshape this company to a mid tier mining as fast and as efficiently as practically possible . His drive and passion is clear to see, I hold all my Vast shares with great confidence.....

Spot on castaway, this saga with Mineral mining and Biata SA has many turns and cross roads. But simply its because of the complexity between them that has taken so long... its not a straight forward process like the issuing of new licenses..

Your welcome Watcher, AP will deliver i firmly believe.He has drive, focus and entrepreneurial skills which have already started to shine through in his 4 months in charge of Vast. GLA

Gem, As i said in my piece the diamonds is a very sensitive subject. Yes the Diamond claims were taken away from AFCR and there has been numerous rulings on this issue and your quite rite its not going to be straight forward. There is lots and lots of research out there for the Marange fields and its legacy , if any investors want to understand the situation better dive in and have a good look.But there has been a changing of the guards in Zimbabwe and who knows what will be opened up in Zim. I am certainly not invested because of the diamonds , if they ever do come online that would be an added bonus. I am invested because of Manailla , B.P , PP , Giant , Eureka , Zargre License areas , Opportunities in Romania and Zimbabwe also Andrew Preala who i am am sure is turning out to be 1 of the most dynamic CEO's on AIM..

Watcher sure , 'very long tricky and laborious avenue which we were advised to take in order to obtain the B.P License'... The avenue that Vast were advised to take was the channel which Vast selected, there has been many pits falls along the way due to the nature of Biata SA being in receivership. There was historic water and electricity charges that were outstanding to Biata SA, along with Biata SA holding the current license for BP. Couple this along with the Regime changes and ministerial changes that have taken place on numerous occasions, although the license claims are not meant to be linked to the court cases relating to the above "i personally believe that they could well have an influencing factor in this process. If you look at the other licenses that Vast have obtained , these were in the normal straight forward procedure (No issues and awarded in the normal manner) these include the enlarged area of Manilla and the Zargra license areas. Hope this helps watcher

second to none. This has already been realised with the accusation of Eureka , I got the feeling from AP Vast could well be seeing more of this type of structured deal put on the table. I must say having spoken to Will a few times in the past I share AP�s thoughts about him, his drive and desire to see Vast make the most of the new regime change in Zim is clear to see and understand . I look forward to seeing Will bring more deals to the table in the future. 5, Marange (Diamond Claims) after asking AP about the possibilities of the diamond claim ever been re-instated, his answer was �this is a very delicate and complicated matter and will require some extensive dialogue�. He was unable to talk any further on this matter due to the sensitive nature. 6, Pickstone Peerless / Giant Mine. Pickstone is performing extremely well AP hinted in his last podcast. We are still mining the oxides with a changeover to the sulphides once we have extracted all value from the oxides , Ap is extremely happy with PP and the team on the ground delivering great numbers from the mine, he is fully confident of a smooth transition over to the sulphides when the business case requires this change. 7, Further Accusations in Zimbabwe. With the new regime change and Will leading the Vast team in Zimbabwe I get the feeling that we are well placed and in the early mover position to pick up further assets in which could be a very exciting time for Vast in Zimbabwe. 8, The significance of the mercuria deal and also the SSGI funding deal. Having the likes of Mercuria a $90 billion company invest in a pre-payment off take a agreement is of hugh significance to vast. A very strict and in-depth DD was performed by mercuria especially on the Manailla mine and the confidence shown by Mercuria is amazing, for Vast to get this pre-payment funding is really transformational for the company. It seems to me that SSGI will be playing an active part of our growth plans for Zimbabwe, with a renewed working relationship with Vast and SSCG its exciting times ahead I feel for all shareholders. Positive times ahead for Vast in my opinion , having attended many investor shows and general meetings for vast I must say this is the most confident that I have ever been. Andrew P the CEO has transformed this company in the 4 months that he has been in the role, he has drastically changed the way in which the business will develop in the way it pursues its accusation. My personal thoughts are that the SP is lagging because of a lack of confidence shown by the city because of some of the disastrous deals that were stuck under the old CEO. Now this has changed and the City is starting to see the entrepreneurial skills shown by Ap a totally different outlook is emerging for Vast. Regards Lee All of the above is my opinion please DYRO
