The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
Shaun Bunn CEO said āAs expectedā
And there lies the crux of todayās RNS.
Great news but not adding value until extraction process proved.
This is the mineral land of the giants so we could drill this for years & keep finding more & more & more & it be high grade from top to bottom.
MRE - proof of concept is what weāre all here for and patience will reward us all IMHO.
ML
Morning ODR, Rooters,
I have to say Iām in agreement with your views.
Whilst high grade titanium is great news, itās only value adding when the Titanite is commercially viable. We still donāt know this officially and until we do any news of this sort will be muted (as weāve seen previously).
The market has one question & we all know what that is.
Iād prefer we held results (not sure thatās compliant) until we had all the facts & data to supplement a high grade titanium RNS. The MRE will be the key to everything as thatās where an RNS should mention words such as millions & billions - hopefully referring to tonnage & monetary values.
There is far more going on that just drilling analysis & the new Empire starters are busy in each department so when it all links up & they align their work we will certainly be kept entertained with newsflow.

Hi Art,
There was JORC discussion in a video AFAIC but canāt remember which one sorry.
That probably doesnāt help you but someone might know which one below from the last 6 weeks of updates.

It appears Australia really are focussed on self-reliance for critical minerals with a $4b investment via the Critical Minerals Facility supporting projects in Western Australia, South Australia, the Northern Territory and Queensland.
Resources Minister Madeleine King said Australiaās critical minerals and rare earths were ākey to building renewable technologies such as solar panels, batteries and wind farms, as well as defence and medical technologiesā.
It was announced last week that plans for a Future Made in Australia Act, which would be a series of loans, grants, subsidies, tax breaks and other investment incentives to lure capital to Australia, or stop it from leaving, to bolster clean energy and advanced manufacturing.
The critical-minerals strategy is a key element of the act, and it includes a national security element in that Australia and its allies need to ease dependence on China for supply.

Given we now have a direct link with the CSIRO itās conceivable to think that over the next 18 months we may well also be the recipients of direct support ( maybe the processing plant?). Who knows but itās a strong vote of confidence for the mining industry.

In case the link doesnāt post correctly here is the text. Empire reposted this from the company.
āAMI were delighted to help Empire Metals Ltd with the #mineralogical characterisation of its Pitfield Titanium project. The #automatedmineralogy work we conducted using the TESCAN TIMA identified titanite as a main titanium mineral with distinct sedimentary controls on the mineralisation. The #TIMA image shows the sedimentary layering with enhanced titanium and calcium in selected layers correlating to titanite mineralisation shown in the top right image.
Great work performed by Victor Mota e Nogueira
We wish Empire the best of luck with this exciting project!

I wouldnāt infect this thread coming down to your level Cev but letās see if youāll answer the questions put to you yesterday over on ADVFN?
Iāll await your reply on your āmaking no money postā
You said it, so like I had to stand over my own posts, letās see if you will stand over yours.
BTW, S&P down 1.5%
BAE systems up 1.5%
Only one clown around here ;-)
ML
Typical Cev!
Hadnāt got the balls to communicate like an adult where you started your digs!
Came running here to dramatise and failed to acknowledge my very clear definition of the word ācrashā which was a red day and one which I posted on ADVFN saying crash was too harsh & bad choice of word. Did you miss those corrective posts BEFORE markets opened or did you just want to try to focus on my original post which btw was about the potential timing of releasing news from Empire.
Try act like an adult, not a spoiled child.
ML
Just to clarify my wording, Crash is an exaggeration. Iām expecting an S&P red day.
To be honest, Iād prefer if Empire didnāt release any results until confirmation of titanite extraction. Amazing results (same as last time) might not move the needle until the main extraction query has been confirmed as viable.
Iād like a bumper RNS covering all the areas awaiting updates but no idea of potential timelines.
ML
Markets will crash on Monday! Letās hold them drill results until things calm down as everything will be lost amongst this latest news with many countries involved š®š±(šŗšø š¬š§) & š®š·(š·šŗš¾šŖ)
What a sad & increasingly unstable world weāre living in & knowing the thousands of children involved on both sides it sort of puts everything in perspective.
ML
Will take some persuasion for me to trade in my Fifty Fathoms however, at 50p Iāll keep it & buy one of these too :-)
Weāre still allowed to post dreams here arenāt we OGM?
Things could get very interesting, very soon.
ML
Personally, Iāve been very clear on my views on SandRock Gate but Itās not about the content of the queries from some posters, if indeed those people emailed the company (absolutely no reason to doubt them) it should have been replied to within 48 hrs.
Thatās not up for debate IMO.
I always receive replies to my emails with EEE & have never been left waiting so no personal issues on my side however, we can only take those who said they emailed at face value & having no response to a query that has been misinterpreted via an RNS due to how it was worded deserves a reply.
The fact that some investors donāt know about the mineral makeup of sands & rocks isnāt to be sneered at either, as we all have our knowledge bases across multiple industries & some may not be in mining as is the case here.
It would be great if we could now move on & get back to the real issues at hand, weāll not issues, the results of thousands of metres of drilling into high grade titanium from top to bottom.
Results ever closer and an abundance of news to come as we head into Summer.
Thank you as always Ageos for taking the time to post your thoughts. As you can see from the recommendās itās greatly appreciated by all here. Looking forward to your next contribution on the analysis of the drilling campaign.
ML
The good news is that the core / base investors are far stronger & likely to hold at 8p now than when we first passed 8p in Q4 2023.
Going backwards isnāt always a negative & with so much ahead who knows where weāll end up.
Off to Amsterdam for 4 days, hopefully a sustained but incremental rise over the coming trading sessions.
I suspect double digits will be back relatively soon.

See you all at the next RNS.
ML
Funny how a 2.7m buy moves the needle 1.5% but if thereās a 270,000 share sell we drop about the same % š¤·š»āāļø
MMās making an absolute fortune here over the last 2 months.
Theyāll make even more on the way up over the next 2 years, a lot more!
Now back to the 2.7m buyer, has anyone got his or her contact details? I think someone should have told them weāve been wasting our time on everything since last May because we missed some words in an RNS š¤¦š»āāļøš
All those magnetic gravity surveys in the rented āļø were a waste.
All the thousands of metres drilling (Diamond & RC) were a waste.
All the recruitment of industry experts from RIO & BHP (process development manager & exploration manager) were a waste.
All the interviews outlining we have stumbled upon the worlds largest titanium find, in tier 1 location, with tier 1 infrastructure with tier 1 government support of the industry was all a waste.
The BoD buying shares for themselves at 10p were a waste
The strategic investor (long-term commitment) who is extremely clued up and a big player in Saudi Arabian construction who bought Ā£3m at 11p was a waste.
Being fully funded for all future work was & is a waste.
The government arm (CSIRO) assisting us with technical analysis is a waste.
The grant of options with exercise price 14p & 18p vesting 6 & 12 months from issue and planned / expected to be exercised well in excess of price were a waste.
The rationalisation of our portfolio only 4 weeks ago to focus on this project was a waste.
Joanne Harts top company to watch in 2024 article was a waste.
The two new employees with huge experience in the fields we need experience communicated yesterday are a waste.
John Mayer (mining analyst) commentary yesterday about Empire having a serious project with unbelievable possibilities was a waste.
Mining Indabaās 6 companies to keep an eye on in 2024 was a waste.
The corporate presentation from last week confirming all was going well, faster than expected & as planned was a waste.
How did hundreds of experts, strategic investors, our own BoD not realise it was all a waste.
Just in case we have an any new investors looking in today please note my post above is slightly sprinkled with sarcasm š
If anything, the company are in a better place than ever before. Roll on the core analysis results, resource figures, plant prep, and barrels of high grade Ti02 ready to be shipped direct to multiple end-users. Iām fully supporting the BoDās plans and direction of travel. Risks apply like every publicly traded company but the rewards far outweigh the risk (IMO) so thatās why Iām here, going nowhere & building what I can.

Hi Maxmisty,
I will have to assume one of my filtered friends has confirmed who indeed āThe Big Cheeseā is š§ š
I quite like the monikor as it has a nice ring to it!
I see from your sensible post earlier today that you felt todayās RNS was also good news in terms of our future success. Like you Iāll holding these shares tightly. With continued forward progress, a good strategy, strong expertise & experience from our BoD & the recently appointed employees / advisors, not to mention a little luck along the way, they could be worth far more than they are today. Foresight, belief & patience is required.
All the best,
TBC š¤£
100% agree 4K.
Make no mistake, a concerted effort is being made here to discredit this find & some people (good, honest people) are naturally feeling a little bit apprehensive. Thatās why itās done.
I havenāt seen the likes of this in 9 years & Iāve seen the good times & the bad times of NMG / GEO / EEE. I can feel it in my bones & it will all come out in the wash but worry not, the professionals & experts are who I listen to, doing anything else would appear to be silly would it not?
The BoD should not concern themselves by entertaining this however I will say I hope the poster who has emailed Empire receives a reply as itās very unusual (to me) to hear that it was sent without a reply. SB & Co. have always replied to me within 24 hrs unless they had news due & they deemed it best to reply after news could be discussed having been made public via the correct channels. I have 3 people on filter & I havenāt thought about them once in as many days. From the level of green filtered posts immediately after mine it appears ātheyā or āoneā in particular cares far more about me than I do them! Itās rather sad if Iām honest.
I can only imagine itās torture considering the replies Iām seeing from everyone else š
One thing is for sure, the markets aināt ever easy and rewards only come to those who deserve it.
Iām quite content allowing SB progress this incredible project and todays RNS was yet another solid brick in the foundations of a world class high grade titanium producer.
SP is down yes, but like said elsewhere;
Apple stock went from 1.9 to 1.2 in 2005, 6 to 3 in 2009, 25 to 14 in 2013, 31 to 22 in 2016, 56 to 36 in 2019 - you see where Iām going here? All stocks can look like this at a particular moment in time, itās the destination of travel Iām concerned about not daily fluctuations.
Because the stock drops, doesnāt necessarily mean that itās a bad thing. The trend for Empire will be positive Iām sure & Iām here to make the most of it š
Iāll await the green filtered reply š š£
