Here we go, after a sell going through as low as 21.1p, we're now heading back up now, with buys coming in at 22.7p at present.

How incredibly predictable haha

Also, as I've said before, if a completely nonsensical less than 5% drop in the share price, then you're in the wrong game investing on AIM because you'll be done over time and time again i.e. selling before big re-rates.

The big re-rate is imminent.

We'll soon look back at sub 25p in the same way we now look back at 15p.

i.e. this is the time to load up before we reach new highs of 50p+ in the coming months

Completely agree Sanchez. It's a proper little tree shake this one.

Hold tight, the sells will stop, the buys will come back in, and we'll tick up very soon : )

Cheeky MMs dropped the price a little this morning to trigger a few sells but I can see this ticking up again very soon and us having another blue day.

With Eskom news due soon, and the Electrolyte Plant news due any day now, and a Q4 Update at the end of the month, you'd be daft to do anything other than buy and hold at these prices.

Also looks like we're going to be rebranded which will do wonders for the share price itself.

In the past few days:

- I've emailed Chika re the LSE Green Economy Mark and about updating/improving upon the description on the company on LSE

- I've messaged Stockopedia about Bushveld being re-catagorised on their website from Uraniam to Renewable Energy, and they have agreed with me! They said that they get their categorisation of shares from Reuters so they have contacted them yesterday to fix this.

These easy wins will also really help.

And then, of course, we're suddenly on the radar of thousands of people who read and trust Investors Chronicle, Financial Times, and Stockopedia - All of whom have tipped us recently !

So it's all looking incredibly positive

Onwards and upwards : )

- Tipped by Investors Chronicle in the most recent issue, and also by the Financial Times yesterday, as well as being tipped heavily by Myles McNulty, BBN, Michael Taylor, and many others on twitter.

- Out of hundreds of companies, Stockopedia came up with their Top 20 tips for 2021, and BMN came 3rd (and will do better than the two above it!)

- Ridiculously low market valuation at present vs any analysis of Fair Value. Let’s not forget annualised production has already increased almost 40% since the start of the year, and is due to increase so much more over the next year. On this basis alone, ignoring everything else, we should be at 30-40p already.

- Vanadium prices have risen massively in recent weeks, and are expected to reach $40kgV at the bare minimum this year (another 25-40% from here)

- Green Stock as well as an excellent mining stock. We're in the shaded bit of the Venn Diagram between Miners and Green Energy - both of which are in fashion right now.

- Not only are the fundamentals super strong, the charts are very strong too!

- We're on the cusp of transformational Eskom BESS tender news in the next few weeks! (It could even be today)

- We’re also due a RNS updating us about the Electrolyte Production Factory any day now.

- The market is finally starting to cotton on, but there’s so much more to go from here.

Short term target price: 50p+ (should be in Q1 given the huge news above)

Longer term target price: 100p-200p

Bizarre market movement.

Going to top up soon !

Yeah tbf if we get all the benefits at 5% as we did at 8.7% then why not sell for a few million shares for a big profit at IES's current share price?

Feel they need to ensure not to sell any more if they want to stay above the 5% threshold in case of further dilution.

Alternatively the plan could be to sell the lot and buy Enerox outright and rename it "Bushveld Batteries" or something

"Thanks for getting in touch.

I can see where you are coming from, there does appear to be an issue with the industry classification of Bushveld Minerals.

We currently use Thomson Reuters Business Classification model for all of our sector/industry data, which does not contain a 'Vanadium' subset in Energy. Our data providers are unlikely to change their model to create this new category for Vanadium producers as there are currently too few listings.

However, re-categorising Bushveld under 'Renewable Energy' does seem more suitable and something they might consider implementing. I will be forwarding on this information directly to Refinitiv to see if this is something that can be changed.

Thank you for having brought this to our attention!"

I have also messaged Stockopedia re their incorrect classfification of BMN as a uranium stock (meaning it's not there when people search for 'Renewable Energy' !

"I've realised that Bushveld Minerals (BMN) comes under Energy --> Uranium on your site, even though it has literally nothing to do with Uranium.

Please may a new category be created for Energy --> Vanadium instead, which could then feature BMN, FAR, and IES?

Alternatively, if that isn't enough stocks to constitute its own category, please may these be re-categorised as 'Renewable Energy'? Seeing as vanadium (and vanadium batteries) are vital for the green energy revolution that's unfolding.

Happy to elaborate if needs be."

Will let you know what replies I receive soon.

RIP Dolly

Hahaa well it beats having ideas and merely voicing them on bulletin boards!

"“Bushveld Minerals Limited, an investment holding company, engages in the exploration and development of vanadium projects in South Africa. The company operates through four segments: Vanadium and Iron Ore Exploration, Coal Exploration, Vanadium Mining and Production, and Energy. It also explores for vanadium, titanium, iron ore, phosphate, tin, and coal deposits. The company primarily holds interests in the Vametco, Brits, Vanchem, and Mokopane projects located in the Northern Limb of the Bushveld Complex in Limpopo. It also holds interest in the Imaloto coal project comprising four exploration permits, and one mining and exploitation permit covering a total area of approximately 81.25 square kilometers in southwest Madagascar; and 60 megawatt power plant and a transmission line of approximately 250 kilometers. In addition, the company engages in the energy development, mining and manufacturing, and power generation activities, as well as property owning and support services. Bushveld Minerals Limited was incorporated in 2012 and is based in Johannesburg, South Africa.”

All of these are easy wins to help us re-rate, and there is no reason not to action them!

Look forward to hearing from you soon.

All the best, "

Hi Chika,

Hope you’re well

Please note that the London Stock Exchange launched the “Green Economy Mark” in 2019 to recognise companies and funds which derive 50%+ of their revenues from environmental solutions (which includes revenues linked to energy storage batteries); and the companies which have the LSE Green Economy Mark are being valued at a much higher premium than they would do otherwise. So please may Fortune & the board consider applying for this when the time is right to help close the gap between the inherent valuation and the current market valuation.

Also please note that the description of Bushveld Minerals on the London Stock Exchange (which is presumably then used by others), particularly the bit highlighted below, looks as though it needs updating. Because surely the Bushveld Energy piece needs to mention the partial ownership of Enerox and Invinity Systems; the electrolyte production plant; the electrolyte rental company; etc? And surely we should be highlighting the company’s green credentials?

“Bushveld Minerals is a low-cost, integrated, primary vanadium producer, with ownership of high-grade vanadium assets.

The Company's flagship vanadium platform includes a 74 percent controlling interest in Bushveld Vametco Alloys (Pty) Ltd, a primary vanadium mining and processing company; 100 percent of Bushveld Vanchem, a primary vanadium processing facility with a beneficiation plant; the Mokopane Vanadium Project and the Brits Vanadium Project.

Bushveld's vision is to become a significant, low-cost, integrated primary vanadium producer through owning high-grade assets. Whilst the demand for vanadium remains largely anchored in the steel industry, Bushveld Minerals believes there is strong potential for an imminent and significant global vanadium demand surge from the fast-growing energy storage market, particularly through the use and adoption of Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries. Bushveld Energy, the Company's energy storage solutions provider, plays a leading role in the development and promotion of the role of vanadium in this market."

Also, on a similar note, SimplyWallStreet and YahooFinance (used by US investors especially), both use the same out-dated description of the company, which also mentions the coal assets which have now become toxic for green investment funds/trusts. Please may this urgently be addressed?

...

As someone who currently has a 14 day trial for Stockopedia I can safely assure you they’ve described BMN fairly. And in fact you can see that the fact we’re the #3 Top Tip for 2021!

However I’ve checked out Simply Wall Street and Yahoo Finance and they both have the same description as you can see here
https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BMN.L/profile?p=BMN.L

This is something that Chika & Co need to work on changing, so we have more US interest! (Which has done wonders for others stocks like EMH for instance which has risen 260% since start of Nov!)

If anyone has any other examples, please post them here and I’ll include it in the email I will send this weekend :)

Also would be curious to know if people are aware of any websites describing BMN very poorly? because I also intend to contact various websites requesting they refer to the LSE description.

For instance, "TradingView" is an increasingly popular site, and they describe BMN as follows, which doesn't sound like we've reached mining production, let alone sound like a green company !

"Bushveld Minerals Ltd is a holding company which engages in the development and exploration of mineral properties..."

Clearly we've got some easy wins here

Further to the below post...
"Honestly looks like we're going to be at 25-30p before (1) The Eskom News; (2) The Electrolye Plant News; (3) any potential efforts to rebrand us to as a Green Stock; and (4) Further appreciation in the Vanadium commodity prices. This is shaping up ever so nicely : )"

...I've realised we can assist with Point 3, by helping to ensure that BMN is not mislabelled or misrepresented on various platforms.

With this in mind, I was wondering what people thought of the London Stock Exchange description of BMN (which is presumably then used by many other sites)

"From: Bushveld Minerals Ltd
Bushveld Minerals is a low-cost, integrated, primary vanadium producer, with ownership of high-grade vanadium assets.

The Company's flagship vanadium platform includes a 74 percent controlling interest in Bushveld Vametco Alloys (Pty) Ltd, a primary vanadium mining and processing company; 100 percent of Bushveld Vanchem, a primary vanadium processing facility with a beneficiation plant; the Mokopane Vanadium Project and the Brits Vanadium Project.

Bushveld Energy, the Company's energy storage solutions provider, plays a leading role in the development and promotion of the role of vanadium in this market."

Do we feel this could be improved in any way? And, if so, how?

The other thing I intend to do is write an email to Chika to advise them that they can and should apply for the "LSE Green Economy Mark" (https://www.londonstockexchange.com/raise-finance/equity/green-economy-mark?lang=en).

Look forward to hearing people's thoughts.

Honestly looks like we're going to be at 25-30p before (1) The Eskom News; (2) The Electrolye Plant News; (3) any potential efforts to rebrand us to as a Green Stock; and (4) Further appreciation in the Vanadium commodity prices

This is shaping up ever so nicely : )

LSC123, you're talking as if we've already multibagged to 200-300p or something asking for the "next BMN" hahaha

Honestly there's so much more to go!

BMN is effectively the next Ganfeng Lithium but for Vanadium. Our P/E ratio one day will one day be something crazy like theirs. By which point we'll all be millionaires !

Alfacomp,
Completely sympathise with you. The fundamentals are absolutely fantastic, and the research we've collectively put in to evidence that is why the charts are now looking good. The former is why the traders are now jumping in to help us re-rate!

Treat them nicely, some of them may realise it doesn't make sense any sense to sell at 25p ish, and they should instead be aiming for 100p etc.
