Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
I never said it was, you commented say this ‘choke point’ was under surveillance by satellite, drones and fighter jets looking for an army?! Maybe you shouldn’t comment on stuff you have no idea about
Army? Who said anything about detecting an army? It’s jihadist fighters moving in small groups which you won’t detect unless you have continuous high resolution imaging which is why I am saying it’s not happening. French troops were ambushed only in December by well over 40 jihadists on motorbikes yet somehow they weren’t spotted and that was the first operational drone strike in Mali which was sent to assist the French troops
Miagi, the continuous high resolution satellite coverage you are talking about is not free. Running jets as surveillance is not free and there are a very limited amount of drones in Mali and they are not patrolling that ‘choke point’.
Miagi you are right, those technologies exist, but the cost to run them continuously over a 500km stretch is astronomical and I can promise you, is not happening in mali. Continuous surveillance of that nature doesn’t even happen during when the Americans go to war
On another note, good timing on those warrants at Cora or maybe prudent given the on-going situation!
That’s a 500km choke point! Not even the Spartans could hold that lol!
Did anyone guess the q2 production correctly in the end? I’ve topped up here and feel it wouldn’t take much for me to break even and then not much more to be in decent profit. Q2 was always going to be difficult but I don’t think many quite realised how bad and I’m not going to pretend I know enough to have even made a decent prediction that would have been close. If we can hit the basic level of just surviving until corona passes then we should be fine and with the new site management in place this should be a distinct possibility
Short not shirt
Haha the one thing you didn’t mention was the situation in Mali shandy! Your prediction was 30p on the q2 rns which never materialized and also 1850 on your gold shirt which again never materialized! Are you buying in now or still just talking about it?
My thoughts here are that this will be a good buying opportunity as there will be some ii’s who can’t handle the volatility and if it hits my target price and the situation looks ‘stable’ then I’ll be buying more. I have sold for the moment but will be looking for a good opportunity to buy back in
Check the news again, opposition leaders are saying it’s a proper insurrection and the national news channel has gone off line! They also have the president and prime minister held captive at the military base. It’s hard to know what the effects will be, however long term I think everything will be ok but the short term volatility could be quite drastic! Free up some cash and be ready to top up, the joy of being a pi is that you can afford more risk than ii’s and the greater the risk the greater the reward!
Where are people seeing that it was just a pay dispute? Everything I’m looking at is saying it is a coup d etat and there’s even a photo of the colonel leading it!
I went to the trouble of finding the June 5 movement’s memorandum- https://maliactu.net/mali-memorandum-mouvement-du-5-juin-rassemblement-des-forces-patriotiques-m5-rfp/
Can see no mention of mining nationalization
I had a reasonable search and I can’t see much about foreign miners or resource nationalists or even who the main figures in the June 5 movement are other than dicko and one or two others who aren’t noted as being resource nationalists. Therefore unless you can back up claims like that it would be appreciated if you don’t post them. I’ve always appreciated your input and you generally seem to be on the level. Thanks
You’ve mentioned resource nationalists before, which members are they?
Pretty sure when I bought in at 4p and sold at 16p I won pretty big! Lots of free shares right when I bought back in at 3p! Why even come on this board if you haven’t read anything of value and don’t think you will ever get any value? You are just taking as much rubbish as the rampers and derampers!
Haha why have you been waiting for the titanic to come back? Want to be the next rose? That door would sink with just you on it Christmas ham!
Also using the return/new paragraph key from time to time as well
That should have been smiley face at the end of that not ?? Clearly doesn’t like emoji’s lol
Just had another look and I think I must have finished off the end of that title above the 355m to mean it was the shares owned by the ii and I would guess that I wasn’t the only one! Making excuses I would say I have never really paid that much attention to Tr-1’s before other than the name of the fund/person and whether the percentage went u or down! Good to know a little more though! Thanks for the enlightenment ??
