"Landore's exploration during 2012 has successfully positioned Landore to proceed with Pre-Feasibility Studies on the combined B4-7 and WW deposits in 2013." I see we have Humphries now on Board in a full-time capacity. Let's hope - even at 74 years of age - he finally produces something of value & merit that long-standing shareholders can materially benefit from.

some buyers appear. A £7,500 purchase this morning. Not earth-shattering but a reasonable investment given CPP's history. IF there by chance is someone stake-building then this will surely fly soon?

I see the walk-down of the sp has started. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

received mine in the post. Good to see that they have at last produced a relatively lo-cost & plain booklet and not the usual arty-farty holiday type brochure with a front cover of a snowy winter scene or a lake. And the inside is not littered with glossy multi-coloured pictures this year either. In fact none at all. Plain as plain can be. I see the AGM venue is back to Guernsey this year. Nice pleasant trip for them. I see First Nickel Inc trading now at $0.0001 (or something very similar) and the last 3 months showed production revenue was less than production overheads & expenses. Not good.

Plus as I mentioned before - they will be probably prefer the shareholders who do make an appearance at the AGM to do so with at least a partial smiley face given all the doom & gloom for so long. And a recovering sp should help!! Not to mention fundraising hopefully being a thing of the past. Assume they have limited material at the moment to excite the markets but this is a good start to give some indication that they fully expect to be successful & profitable this year & in future.

Like the confident sound of that.

Looks like Phoenix have pumped more than just money into this.

Of course such dubious practice is still legal. But nonetheless a scam imho. Hard to prove too. However I am sure it goes on. You can see why so many AIM listed companies have gone to the wall over the past decade. Mr Prickett should know all about that. And why investment in AIM shares are a fraction of what they once were 10 years ago by private investors. Too many have lost their shirts.

at some point between now and the next fundraise with some 'convenient' sell trades. It will follow previous patterns over many years/placements. You can bet your house on it. 15 years of adapting to a variety of mineral price fluctuations........ that's some achievement!!!

Bearing in mind LND had proir to 2005 traded on TSX and explored from early 2000s this has got to be the longest pre-feasibility study to be completed in mining history. 15 years of adapting to market prices & supply demands. Still it's kept some folks in gainful employment I guess. Sudbury calling.

"IMO this will never reach production. We appear to have dropped the "SCOPING " and moved into PRE-FEASIBILTY. Next stop ????????"

I reckon circa £50 million has been pumped into LND since inception. And it'll be that sort of CAPEX again required to build a mine for any would-be purchaser. Given the relatively meagre profit margins involved why will Sudbury be watching? For what? Quantities of palladium, platinum, nickel, copper, lithium, iron ore, gold? 18 months ago many analysts were predicted nickel would be in demand. It ain't happened. In fact nickel is on the floor with over-supply. Palladium might be a star performer in years to come, but will a Major really be interested in what LND have???????? Somehow I doubt it. With well over half a billion shares soon to be in circulation I'd be amazed if anyone was willing to offer over 8p a share for this. Just about the price it launched at on AIM all those years ago with all the hype and ramping.

Of course what doesn't "move up and down in cycles over a number of years" is the share price performance. That only moves down (and down yet further) over many years as the management consistently fail to deliver. Simple as. Down to a level now that 95% of value has been wiped off the slate over the past decade. But I take my hat off to them - they are good at spinning a story & raising funds. And granting themselves Options, even if they rarely ever exercise them.

......if not coal...... then more bull s**t.

I suggest you need a reality check. Most mining analysts state that if a minor exploration company has not brought a resource to the mining/production stage within a maximum 7 year period it is unlikely to succeed. Look at what your hero Prickett was spouting to the press when LND launched on AIM. About how he cheerfully admitted he couldn't tell one rock from another but was confident LND would be a 2-3 year project with a Major being enticed to take it over. Sure they have had to adapt to changing spot prices - look at Nickel spot price when they did the Option deal with FNI. Look at the spot price 9 years later. You call it adapting. I call it failure. Look at the expensive supa dupa hi-tech state of the art 3D Geo survey that was supposed to shed the light on where to go next with the Scorpion Zone (that doesn't seem to get a mention these days)? Over 2 years ago Humphries was saying "LND is positioned to move forward with development plans of the Junior Lake Nickel Project". Have I missed something? Where are those plans? Maybe coal will be the next big thing for them to get excited about?

In the 10 years at the helm - he has managed over the Company losing 95% of its value to shareholders. Whatever numbers you want to use over whatever period of time. Most CEOs in a pucker plc would get the sack for producing such a dire performance. You read back all the RNSs and ARs over the decade and it's been nowt but bullish jam tomorrow type statements. Significant this & successful that. Yet the reality we now know was different. I wish I'd sussed at the time the significance of Andrew Cheatle going and Packer Jnr's mob bailing.

you banging on about 'magic numbers'. Weren't there more than enough 'magic' numbers in the Lamaune portfolio??? That, as you know, has been moth-balled for several years now and I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't end up being number 36 in the companies Prickett has been a director that ends up being permanently dissolved in the bin.

All pis don't have the opportunity to have the real & true facts to hand and can only make semi-informed decisions based on what they are told publically. All pis don't have the opportunity to mislead except post nonsense on BBs like "watch this space" Read back some of the misleading releases from many years gone by. They have promised the earth and, as yet, delivered nothing for shareholders. Except shaft those who invested and stayed loyal many moons back at 17-20p. What is happening here is legal. But still a con imho. The management (not me) were the ones saying they were "fast tracking" project to production back in 2007. Personally I am not interested in "magic numbers" being advertised. All I want is to see the share price perform well for those who invested. 19.5p to now 1.5p tells it's own story and performance level. Again, I say those who invested on Humphries' lead at 16.5p many years back will be very lucky to get their money they invested back imho. Why should they need or want to average down??

is where Cambridge Minerals had a base. Sudbury in the UK that is! Surely 'Sudbury' in Canada would have been already well aware of Junior Lake when LND management were boasting almost 10 years ago that they were fast tracking to production? If the fact that LND are now boasting that they will have a mixed and varied resource of 100k tonne plus will make all the difference you'd think LND management would be fast tracking this to achieve that 'magic number'. Instead it's going as slow and as exciting as watching paint dry. But it allows those in the know to load up with massive quantities of cheap stock making their holdings from 10-15 years back a mere irrelevance. Notice how they haven't been granting many Options to themselves in recent years. They certainly haven't been exercising any from the many years gone by when they were priced at 15p plus. The long term holders who invested 17-20p range will at best get their money back imho and at worst get shafted because of the length of time it's taken and the multi-share-dilutions that have taken place over recent years.

That 100k tonnes target has been mooted for yonks. Prickett has mentioned it in previous spiels to the financial press. Setting targets is easy peasy. Delivering them after soooooo many years is what's in some doubt. And even if they have that combined quantity of all the various & many mineralisations is there enough profit margin left after operation, refining, transportation and smelting costs at $13,000 per tonne in concentrate to get any 3rd party excited enough to take it on and mine? And what price would they have to pay for the risk? Lucky bag price perhaps? There's surely got to be FAR more exciting acquisition prospects out there? Typically you have got me all wrong over Cambridge. I don't hold there and haven't for 6 years. Sold my holding privately to a major shareholder who I get on well with and keep in contact with. But unfortunately CMR is yet another example of management promising the earth and delivering Jack S**t over many years. I just try and hold them to account for their appalling mismanagement. Anyway, what will the next fundraise be here? Something between 1 & 1.5p? How many more shares will that put in circulation? Another quarter of a million plus?? I wouldn't say this is a scam........ but it ain't far off it.
