By 'sparks fly" I meant it would trigger a bidding war...

Isnt the most obvious explanation a JV for Alpala with Boliden financed by Norges Bank...?

Then watch the sparks fly...

ALL...

Buy on rumour sell on fact...

So the first fact is 20 April..

Together with yesterday's news and the rundown to and through Easter, it is hardly surprising the SP is taking a breather. There are always traders and each has their own strategy...

But what is extremely encouraging to me is that the SP has held up and, with all the news ahead of us I would expect to push through 41p and maybe even test 45p before the news breaks...

And that's the thing...ALLA the news is ahead of us...even without a bid...

Darryl, Ingo and Keith have brought some sanity to news flow management, together with certainty, met deadlines and a measured approach...

I've never felt more positive about SOLG..."our day will come...and we'll have everything..."

Ah sorry guys...I'm in Crete...time for a sundowner...17.10...

Anybody got the UT

As I said a few days ago...I think its 'Hole 24'...

"We are back in the race..."

Hold tight guys...

Loans to Directors are strictly illegal...

I dont understand why the market hasn't reacted. This is mega news!

280k at 37.3...

I wonder how many other people reported him...pretty pronto...?

So he/she made a quick exit after a debut, thanks to ****** jokes...

Kabaddi doesn't look like it needs much skill...but like British Bulldog if you remember that...

So don't build your hopes up because he/she (living in Bangladesh most probably) might only need £100 if that...

And they're managing to shake out a few chunky sales...

MMs trying it on again...230,000

To save time...as a shorthand...in future if I post just a number, assume that is the number of shares I am firmly bid for, which will give you an indication of whether the firm buying interest is sustained...

So for starters...250,000...after the brief markdown to 37.5 and the strong push towards 39p and beyond, that is excellent news...

PS I'm away from Sunday for 2 weeks but will keep in touch...

As we approach the probable denouement, now is the time for patience and strong wills...

We have had so many disappointments in the past, most notably on the back of overpromising and underdelivering, to the extent that the SP went stale.

Whoever said yesterday that this is where the SP should have been anyhow was making a sound point.

Darryl seems to have had a stabilising influence on the Board.

It is incredibly encouraging that we have come 77% in 3 months on no news, but that cannot be expected to last.

As DBW suggested, it is still probably 6 weeks at least to the PFS, so we need whoever is buying to sustain their interest, otherwise we may see temporary 'adjustments'.

Today is a case in point...the MMs tried to take it down and were met with steady buying that took the SP back to where we started. I haven't checked yet, but that tells me that still few are selling and the insti(s) or whoever are still buying.

But are they buying on the PFS or bid speculation; or is it a prospective bidder(s) or someone on behalf of same?

That leaves a vulnerability because if, say it is one buyer (Norge) and they have a capped limit of 40p say, or a capped size of, say 5%, what happens when that is reached?

I'm certain that there is no shortage of recent buys by traders/speculators...at what point do they take their short term profits? Maybe that is what the MMs are trying to trigger...

I am very much encouraged to believe that the PFS will be a material improvement on v1 and that alone will produce a SP lift, but...

If we have six weeks to go, there will be some relatively 'dead' times in that.

Next week is Easter...the market will begin to wind down from Monday and probably won't fully restart until w/b 25 April; then we have the Mayday weekend...then Spring Bank and the Queens Jubilee...and all these may probably happen prior to PFS.

So as I said...its time for calm reflection. We can't expect any news prior to PFS except the MD&A in mid May and possibly Options...both of us will give us crumbs to speculate on...

Good luck...keep the faith...we've come a very long way and fulfilment is at hand in a few short weeks now...

Well done again matey...thought leader...

Slightly disappointing as it was quoted 38.65/38.9 earlier and there were buys at 38.70...

BUT....closed at another 16 month high...(3 December 2020)...

It was always going to be tough breaking 38 and probably 40p but I say again...we've come all this way with no news...

What price after the PFS...? 60p?

And what price an opening bid...? 75p...

Any offers?

PS thanks for the compliment but it takes 5 seconds to look up your posting history... ;-)
