If Platinum were at its long-term average premium of ca 25% to Gold its price today would be ca $2800. How much longer can the price stay this low, I wonder?

Something that stops the Chinese returning to Bejing with broad smiles on their faces. Mind you, if they paid 2.5B they would still be grinning.

There is definitely massive value. There is absolutely no chance that this will be sold at 40-45P, if it is true that there are still genuine bidders who wish to secure these world-class assets with future metal prices in mind. China is currently hoarding and trying to add to its copper reserves, because there will be future shortages of this key metal in the next few years. It is not the only key metal in EUA's basket, however.

I’m sure you’re right but I can’t see what they’re stirring in that pot.

Trust our BoD to adopt the best tactics in the circumstances. If we are in the dark what about the buyers? They too will be wondering where the money is coming from and if it is likely to be running out. It is all designed to ‘concentrate’ minds, increase competition and sharpen appetites. The message might be we are in no hurry and are going to wait as long as necessary and can you really afford to wait much longer to secure these assets for the future with future prices in mind?

I think they will be satisfied with the 15% tax. I also agree that lack of communication and news is probably not all down to NDAs or the BoD. The BoD may originally have expected to be able to publish that DFS for example but were advised not to. If so, you cannot blame them for complying. There is every incentive for the state to want to see, indeed to insist on, fair value being achieved. Most promising for all bona fide holders of this share.

‘Britain behind Moscow terror attacks, claims Kremlin’

No doubt a few of Putin’s fans on this board along with G.Galloway will be able to offer evidence - after all, It is most suspicious that Obama was in London three days before the atrocity happened.

Dutiful servants, all of them. Preexisting cognitive faculties, if any, must perforce fail at the foot of the master - otherwise a terminal fall from grace may well ensue.

Putin’s lapdog, I would say.

The Kremlin has launched a disinformation campaign spreading false claims that MI6 and other Western intelligence agencies were responsible for Friday’s terrorist attack in Moscow.

A network of automated “bot” social media accounts has been sharing links to fake websites, designed to look like well-known news outlets, that blame the West for the massacre that left 167 people dead, The Insider reported.

According to a report by Facebook parent company Meta Platforms, the spam attack was carried out by the Russian IT companies National Technologies and Social Design Agency, both of which fall under EU sanctions and have been linked to the Kremlin.

I found the perfect camouflage for the robotic Mizman - key colour is green and is guaranteed to obscure him to perfection.

The deepest hues of pond-life green must be reserved for those Adfin negheads who have fled the EUA scene and now continue their usual activities on boards like EEE.

Some people seem to have a quite unaccountable soft spot for that skulking scavenger. Apart from an Irish bog I would suggest as a good alternative your local green compost bin, holding nose and lid down tight.

He clearly hasn’t got the thick skin of an Eamon Ryan. Ryan, who believes the divine hand is guiding him to save the biosphere, is out of touch but ideologues can never admit that.

Well done, Leo.

Give that sad malingerer a red card for the duration. Sorry, forgot myself - a green card for the duration

You think they are hiding the frightful truth from us and have been for some time? Why do you not think it is much more likely that the end of the court cases and important decision on tax likely means the end game is just about here? I believe CS may be acting from a position of relative strength rather than weakness. Forget about bids of 25-30P - Potanin will not lay himself open to ridicule with WAI standing behind CS at the table.

In that case it is most surprising that the bidders are still at the table. They would appear to have wasted a huge amount of money as well as two+ years of their time. Maybe that trickster CS has fooled the lot of them with the connivance of WAI and loose talk of world-class assets.

The price of copper is or was about $8000 per tonne, not £8000 as in the calculations.

Bad news for you, Bruno. Your chances of seeing 10-12P again are very slim! Good news is that your chances of seeing much much more are high. Of course, if the price did suddenly reach 10-12P you would likely not sell - but if I am right you will not find yourself in that uncomfortable position.

I know someone who would be more than happy to pay $1.5B for it to include the Nyud licence and the accompanying CPR.

The only thing is he will not get it for that price. Therefore, don’t even let 42P enter your little head. You can be sure Potanin has more respect for the findings of WAI than some miscreants here. What was NN’s dividend last year - anyone remember?
