This phase of consolidation (10p range) is very important in my view. I believe with the news due & pending development plan (months) we can certainly break the current range leading to bigger moves in Empire.

It will be interesting to keep an eye on usual indicators of volume (trade frequency has increased), RSI and MACD whereby we can confirm a breakout (I’ll leave that to people with more experience than myself to summise).

I’m just glad to see this consolidation pattern and If it can hold the level with relatively decent volumes, then I’m confident that we’ll see a stable rise based on firm upside buying momentum.

Any chartists have a view on this?

I’m a news driven (fundamentals) investor so interested to get the view of the guys who jump in or out on the technical side of the fence.

Basically holding double digits now, is like when we held 2p for a while before the most recent Q2 2023 rise of 400%. Same again in 2024 has us at 50p. Can happen just as easy even though one increased the Mcap by £50m & one could increase by £200m.

I’m sure you, like me have seen it happen time & time again so let’s see if SB can deliver the goods.

Hi TL,

When you wrote MB I got confused as I thought you meant to write ML.

I’m also getting old (41) so my apologies if I took your question up incorrectly. I do hope my reply covered the query anyway in a general sense.

Hi Timelord,

I have zero personal relationship or association with SB.

I’m here going on 9 years and have had exactly the same communication with every previous CEO, non-exec chairman, finance director or company broker.

I have also had similar calls, F2F & email communication with every MD / CEO of any company I’ve ever been invested in (POLY, RRR, BMN - the list is endless)

If one invests their hard earned money, one must invest their time also & I have done that far more than most but that’s a personal choice & certainly not “quite wrong”

I appreciate you giving me the opportunity to clarify my almost decade long support of this company.

Hi All,

I spoke to Joanne Hart today in relation to her Mail on Sunday "Tips for 2024" as I wanted to gauge her level of information, experience & the finer details of why she chose Empire as her lead tip of the year. Her response is shown below and thankfully she is well aware of the entire Empire story and the opportunity is presents.

"Thanks very much for your email. I have spoken to Shaun Bunn directly on a couple of occasions and he comes across as honest about the potential for Empire and pragmatic in terms of how best to leverage that potential. I chose the stock as a tip for 2024 because, if Bunn and his team manage to move this project forward, the commercial opportunities could be extensive. In other words, there is a good chance that the shares could do very well if all goes according to plan."

Like she says in the article itself, we are an early stage explorer / developer so one should not lump the house on it but you get a good idea of what potentially is on the horizon.

P.S. I think its also important for others to reach out to SB, NoB, Shard etc. as to get verification of anything I post here as we all know - all is not what it may appear on any of these boards. Joanne can be contacted on her website joanne-hart.com if you need confirmation of her thoughts.

NMG - straight name change.

Once mineralogical analysis is complete SB WILL provide an update to the market and WILL map out the DEVELOPMENT PLAN.

My advice is three fold.

1) Hold these tight & don't let go no matter what you see intraday - the trend & plans ahead are not to be missed.

2) Get involved now - buy what you can, when you can. This is only just the beginning & my observations are that SB also sees 2023 having been a good year but he's nowhere near where he believes this company can go.

3) Never listen to anyone about advice on buying shares without doing hours and hours of research across literally every aspect of the company, its location, its BoD, the minerals or commodity it is focused on, its financials, cash burn, permits, license's, shareholder register, ownership % etc etc etc...................

Sometimes, opportunities present themselves, whether you take those opportunities is the key.

My appetite to risk, understanding of the company and many other things may differ from others so just make sure you make the decision yourself whether you buy, hold or sell.

I recently caught up with SB and discussed CSIRO involvement and clarification on the why’s & how’s of the current development strategy. I’m happy to say that as expected the strategy outlined & the reasons for this strategy were clearly defined & I’m extremely happy with the forecasted plan’s & expectations for 2024. Needless to say I will not be moving away from Empire for quite some time, & that time will likely be at a market cap in the multiples of todays very enticing market cap entry point. This has legs, many many legs to go. 2023 only scratched the surface & the following is my take on the way forward at Pitfield.

Firstly I'd like to thank SB for yet again, standing over dates & times & doing exactly what he says he will do. This is one of the big reasons I'm fully confident that what this CEO says is the real deal and can be wholly relied upon.

Firstly, since the maiden drill programme (March-April 2023) EEE have been trying to understand the nature & scale of the giant titanium rich mineral system. In essence, all they had to work with at the start was the geochemistry. They could analyse the key elements present & form an idea on the type of minerals, but Shaun, Andrew & Co. could not be precise about the exact minerals or their abundance. They have previously reported (11 July 2023) a dominance of ilmenite & hematite within the samples studied along with only minor magnetite (which SB was clear in confirming THIS IS A GOOD THING).

The diamond drilling was the next key step as it confirmed not only the extension of mineralisation to depth but also gave us a clear picture of the lithology (rock types) & samples which can be tested for both mineralogy & metallurgy. It must be referenced that EEE only completed the diamond core sampling in November (done in a rapid manner keeping costs down but the point being its only early stages of a fast paced programme) & they are still awaiting mineralogical assessment from the samples collected (all happy with the progress & going EXACTLY according to plan). What EEE have been able to see is that the sandstones contain higher levels of mineralisation (likely due to higher porosity), hence their focus has now shifted & rightly so to RC drilling out thick sandstone rich beds, near surface (19 December 2023). Make no mistake things are going well & as they want / hope / expect.

Re; Appointment of the CSIRO –the reason the CSIRO was set up by the Australian Federal Government was to bring industry professionals and leading scientists together, in well-funded & well-equipped research centres around Oz. CSIRO’s mineral research division is focused on critical metals (Titanium) & have a rich history of fundamental research & process development in our sector. SB confirmed we are also using industry experts (Specialists with experience in titanium minerals)

Once mineralogical analysis is complete SB WILL provide an update to the market and WILL map out the DEVELOPMENT P

I’ll address this tomorrow with a detailed reply based off a direct discussion with our 62 year old metallurgical expert.

Your continuous negativity under the guise of “helping people” is pretty see-through. Whilst open debate is welcomed, your “insights” are 100% aimed at disrupting the beliefs and / or shaking those who might not have ever been in such a position of investment along with driving your own agenda for personal gain. The more you post, the more you convince me that you have shorted this stock and are desperate to see if fall. You Sir, should consider your position and remember the wise words, the first loss, is the best loss to take. (Good luck now that the Daily Mail article is out, I’d say you are now going to need to post 3 times as much, again only going to prove your optics!

I would ask all LTH, new investors or fence sitters to filter you if they like me, are convinced of your objectives here as heading into a year of potential life changing developments should not be derailed in any way here on the Empire BB.

I won’t be engaging with LH from this point on and after years of seeing people like him, starving it of an audience is the only way to send him back into his parents attic, although I will admit it’s not a typical troll trying to entertain themselves, it’s a desperate ploy to now channel the SP downwards into profit which is bizarre as never has any AIM investor changed the direction of travel in a multi-million Mcap company. Totally futile.

ML

P.S. I’ll do my write up summary tomorrow which will cover latest SB update & CSIRO. Last few days with family but recharged & ready to go again next week.

SB right on time, provided everything I needed to know & had asked today.

Unfortunately my work email will not allow me to paste data into anything (when on my phone) so won’t have the time to summarise today (family time)

Needless to say I’m completely satisfied & it dispels any concerns or queries brought up by “ShortEverything” a few days back.

One thing I can tell you is that as soon as SB can share our DEVELOPMENT PLAN he will.

😉

ML

Hilariously ill informed :-)

But as you say, a guess on your behalf (ShortEverything)

The one thing I love about Empire is this relatively new BoD. SB has already replied to my earlier query and has no issues addressing any individual queries. He is away from the office until Dec 27th but has confirmed he will respond promptly. That should put an end to the unqualified, negatively spun conjecture.

As you were ladies & gents. Unless there is any further news from Empire I’m signing off for 2023 as a very happy investor.

A Very Happy Investor

Hi LH,

In an effort to assist you with your clear want & need for clarity I have taken it upon myself to ask Shaun for assistance & comment on your queries.

Please allow me 24 hours to gather his detailed reply.

Whilst I’m happy to assist you at any stage, might I suggest if you have any other open ended questions or queries on our current development programme at Pitfield that you send them directly to the team at Empire and they will provide whatever information you wish to have.

Thanks

ML

Impatience nothing more, nothing less.

As you say, an absurd, irrational drop of which the savvy will accumulate.

Warren Buffet finds a stock, fundamentally sound and buys in. If the stock drops (for no bad news reason) like we have here, he is actually happy to see this and buys more. He talks about this often but you just need to have belief in your own thoughts.

He along with others work against the investing psyche and that is how he makes his money. If you don't believe me, listen to him yourself.

HOLD ON TO YOUR WINNERS!

This will get an incredible start to 2024.

Enjoy the Xmas break all. Things are just beginning.

I’ve said all I can say for 2023. To those who stuck around - well done and I’m looking forward to navigating next year with you all.

Watch this AGAIN as it will shake the entire industry to its foundations!

Ignore all the forum conjecture & focus on what the company CEO is telling you.

If you’ve watched it already - watch it again.

If you’ve watched it twice, watch it again.

If you’ve not watched it, watch it.

Each & every time you watch this interview you hear or realise something new. This is the share of 2024 & make no mistake, the rise of 2023 will not affect the ability of similar rises in 2024.

“This is more than big, it will not be flipped for a small profit, we’ll be price setters, upscaling to make titanium products essentially controlling the market. Massive scalability, tier 1’s onlooking, prime jurisdiction right within infrastructure hub (rail, power, water, gas) with existing production technology to be applied to our unique minerals with confidence. No negative funding required, only positive (self-developing)”

The story is only just starting to unfold & as SB says “This unicorn is very real!”

Tier 1 company’s will wake up to what we have - Such a large scale, high grade system that will have them fighting each other for a piece of this unicorn.

All for £65m Mcap!!!!!!!!!!!

Think about it guys! Really think about it!!!!!!

I believe SB has a base 1 strategy and focus on £250m Mcap as the primary focus level (40p+) with a secondary level of £1b. After that, well this time next year we’ll have a much better idea of economic pathway Empire will be taking.

Let the peasants (just joking) fight over a few pennies now, you’ll look back with pounds & be grateful you bought more or at least, held on to what you have.

Lifestyle changing company, for shareholders & the BoD.

On AIM, it’s usually just the BoD but not here! Top class BoD fully focussed on shareholder value & securing a cornerstone investor to launch us and this exciting project.

Merry Xmas.

Just back in cold Ireland after almost 4 weeks away under sunny skies.

I’m seeing lots of posts across multiple forums of when news is due & how do we get the herd back in here. I don’t care if they come pre or post Xmas as this share is only going one way in 2024.

If people can’t see the value in holding or adding and it causes a drop then that’s no issue at all, I’ll scoop up more & so will every other savvy investor. Their impatience will be to my benefit.

In terms of the herd “coming back” - they haven’t even arrived yet. Once a major is involved via RNS, that’s when the herd arrives. Until then, play the smart game!

ML

Hi Finwit,

Whilst your post might have not been on the rampy side I can absolutely see why people bank profit.

NOBODY EVER WENT BROKE banking profit! Let’s be clear every last person in here, banking profit is what this game is about.

Now taking all that into account, each & every one of us here has the same goal, what we differ on is our ability to achieve said goal. Due to a divorce settlement I was literally a few euros away from having to sell all my Empire shares (4m+) to fund a new house purchase but I was outbid multiple times at which point I was disappointed. At that point in time it looked like a bad situation but roll on two years that couple who outbid me have actually added €500,000 to my overall wealth. Everything is at a moment in time.

Let’s respect people’s ability to sell, buy, hold, average down or up! 99% of us on this board are the same type of people trying to better our or our families lives. The ability and circumstances allowing us to do so is what sets us apart.

If you sell - good luck to you!

If you buy - good luck & we hope it earns you a profit

If you hold - good choice, make money or reduce losses

Moral of the story here guys is that “you do you” and as we say in Ireland “F**k the begrudgers”

P.S. See you at 40p+ ;-)

ML

Don’t underestimate just how good a day that was.

2m shares sold & now in the hands of people looking for those 2m to offer significant return.

Just keeps strengthening the base levels which is good news all round.

ML

Sellers are good & healthy!

Not me though Rob. Will take multiples if current SP to get mine & certainly won’t be in 2024 as I believe this will be the year of the rerate.
