Hi Vii.
Hope you are well. Just curious to know if you have a view on why RW resigned. Seems odd given the future and potential here.

PS the Plymouth project has seen some good gains recently. Nice to see.
Follow up.... It appears the shaft lifts are now fully certified.

Looks like the New Cooks Kitchen shaft lift cage has gone in and is nearly ready for use...

"PROJECT UPDATE: SIEMAG TECBERG UK Limited are thrilled to have assisted Cornish Metals Inc. in achieving the first Personnel riding on the New Cooks Kitchen shaft in 26 years!
The video below, taken during the final stages of commissioning of the newly supplied 2.3m diameter SIEMAG TECBERG single drum service hoist captures this momentous moment for mining in Cornwall. This will no doubt be the first of many personnel carrying hoisting operations that Cornish Metals Inc. will undertake in their planned shaft refurbishment works.
Next up, we continue commissioning of the hoist with the aim to certify it for full personnel and material hoisting in the next weeks, as Cornish Metals prepare themselves to gain regular access to the shaft for the first time since it was flooded after its closure in 1998.
The sound of shaft bells, emanating from SIEMAG TECBERG UK Limited purpose built Cerberus communications system, once again rings out in the historic Camborne and Redruth mining district, accompanied by the purposeful rotation of sheave wheels atop the headframe once again.
Congratulations to Cornish Metals Inc. on this momentous achievement β one which SIEMAG TECBERG UK Limited are proud to have played a part in. ππ"

@gingy. No worries. I share croissants view... just be wary of the funding aspect. Significant cash will be needed to bring production online. This hinges on the final MPF permit being in place. So TUN is not out of the woods yet but the recent lift in SP is a positive sign.
All the best with your investments too.
Cheers LB
Nothing obvious other than the fairly positive Environment Agency comments regarding the outstanding permit for the mineral handling plant. Scroll down a bit to my last post where I linked an evening Herald article on the subject. There's slightly more juice in this press article over what's been Rns'd.
Lots of community liason going on too. Likely linked to the EA consultation period but probably unrelated to the rise. imo.

Something is a foot. 400% up this week... I'm in danger of breaking even π³. I'd given up on this one.
Great to see finally. Good luck to all.

Evening.
Finally got to see the latest order this evening. As no one else has come forward any details I'll summarise.
The way I read it :
It seems another party has come forward and laid claim to the shares. Judge has ordered the 'stay' be lifted. Broadly speaking the new party / claimants have until the end of May to prep their evidence and submit their bundle. A date mid June has been set for all parties to get together and arrange a future date for the actual hearing.
Again the way I read it... This new party will join the defendants (this is what it implies) and thrash it out to decide who's actually entitled to the certs.
Looks to me as if this matter is going to rattle on for a while yet. Hopefully the above will be confirmed in an official rns, as this info is now public domain... Albeit behind a paywall.
As always DYOR. I'd urge anyone interested in the full details to subscribe to caseboard (Β£36) and read up on it for yourself.
The above is just my understanding having read over it a dozen times or so. Let's see if we get a proper RNS to clarify. Should do!

Curiosity got the better of me on this.... I reignited my caseboard subscription so I can view the latest paperwork. I did this within a few hours of the caseboard website update. I requested a pdf copy of the latest order (dated 15th March) but new docs take a few days before they are actually available.... My account still shows "request pending". Not sure how someone else has gotten hold of it.
I don't do telegram but if someone can post the details, once I have my copy I'll confirm or deny if it correlates with my info.

A few dots connecting there. β
Apologies...

Just had an email notification regarding the Queeld case. Following last week's hearing the judge has issued a new order.
I no longer have a subscription to caseboard so don't know what the details of the order are. If anyone is subscribed it might be worth requesting the details.

Looks like a bit of activity on the Q/M case.
Hearing tomorrow...

@RBM. Just wanted to extend my appreciation for what you and the SHG are doing here. As has been posted here many times; I too was hoodwinked by the contents of the RNS content throughout last year. I took it all at face value. Trusted the officially released comms. My research indicated me this was worth taking a position. (Long by the way)
I only have a small holding here, and as such don't really feel justified to be contributing to the conversation out of respect to other holders who are sitting on losses may multiples over mine. I'm still c. 90% down. It's eyewatering to think what others are sat nursing. βͺThese being well researched folk and LTH's for a lot longer than myself. If there is any truth in what's been uncovered over that last few months by your group and the experienced oilers that surround you it's a very nasty and unsettling business.
The experience here has readjusted my appetite for small/micro cap and aim stocks. It seems there can be a loaded deck right there in plain sight.
So I applaud your actions and those that have contributed to the group. Immense time and effort must have gone in. I wish all holders well and hope there is a positive outcome here. Even if that is just bring to task those that seem to have perpetrated this shady deception.
I wish you all well. I hope next week will reveal a little more.

I too have applied for several patents and had some of them granted.... Some of them partially denied π. Unrelated tech. Not bio related. A huge aspect here is 'PRIOR ART'. Which is the basis of the searches and what takes time. For those unfamiliar with this... Prior art is having a similar commercially available product or its details in the public domain. In a nut shell the searches are the act of checking it's not substantially been done before. Specifically in the region you are seeking protection. Even if it's the applicant that has done it. If it's out there already you can't protect it.
It's virtually impossible to get patents successfully granted retrospectivly after commercial release or any form of technical public disclosure. So it's crucial to at least apply for them first.
It's complicated. In some cases/regions, if the searches are clear, the patent is granted with effect from the application date. Not the approval date.
The key (for my patents at least) was to seek protection in the jurisdictions where either production and/or sales and/or distribution and/or licensing could lead to an infringement. You pick your biggest threats and largest territories and which aspects of the value chain apply. Sorry to say but in my experience the searches for worldwide, or multiple narrow region protection, took a long time. Iirc in my case over 2 years for some of the overseas aspects. UK/US pats actually happened quite quickly. Aisa not so.
Ploughing ahead with a commercial release before the searches come back and patents are actually granted brings with it an element of risk. This factor may in part explain the news blackout.
I'm not sure it's a given that ciz or any of its partners (biotechnie etc) will take the risk on blowing any trumpets prematurely given the potential revenue prospects. They don't want to breach prior art.
Of course its possible to take a flier and release your idea, hoping that the reverse engineering activity overlaps the possible patent approval happening first. But that is the risk/reward dilemma.
Just my view but dotting all the i's and crossing all the t's is why I think there is a delay. And in my view it's going to be worth waiting for. The China connection is the thorn here.
An analogy... Selling a plot of land with full planning approval granted and highways on board is very different to one where it's all pending.... The latter is basically a field with maybe/hopefully/possibly some upside. For CIZ, having this IP protection alongside any regulatory approvals adds massive value.
If the above is indeed what's happening then I'm quite comfortable knowing that the parties involved are taking a cautious approach. It maximises value and return for all parties.
As a LTH I could do with some maximisation. Lol.

Nice bit of stateside exposure. Wall Street Journal article...

I agree. This activity could be exploratory surface trenching. These scars observed in the sequence of satellite images aren't forming by themselves. It's about minus 20 in Kytlim right now. So whatever it is, it's being done in harsh conditions.
Seems to me an area was cleared of trees back last autumn. Surface works started on or around 29th Dec. So around the time of the tax issue being resolved.
Care and maintenance was declared in the last corporate update 7th December. Also hinted at in the Interims 19th September. There's a clear overlap of evidence vs official company statements.
At various junctures I've presented my findings to the company and requested a statement on what's going on.
Unsurprisingly (tick scottydog) I've not received anything back despite 4 attempts.
Anyway. Thought I'd share it so people can judge for themselves.
