Sorry...Jakob Stausholm...

Spit it out Quady...

Name the "The sell us cheap brigade"...you keep banging on about them...have the guts to man up...

Apply to self Quady...

It takes one to know one...

'Perception is projection'...

"Carl Jung introduced the notion of ‘projection’ to explain how people can feel certain they know what another person is like and what they think, then interact with the other person on the basis of those assumptions.

Jung also went on to propose that often these assumptions are false and say more about the person making the assumptions than they do about the other person. He suggested that everyone has ‘shadow’ personality traits ie elements of our personality that we dislike or of which we are ashamed and that rather than acknowledge their presence, we attribute them – project them – onto other people.

Still blind delusion Quady...?

"No matter what anyone says, the AGM was a success"

Nick's two most important Resolutions had to be withdrawn without a vote and...

He got hammered in the election (the two biggest shareholders voted against him...the two we should be doing business with if SOLG wants to remain independent...)

"So maybe this is the next evolution, and Nick Mather is handing over to a CEO that has constructed mines, and brought them to production."

After you've banged Eoin that Solgold doesn't need any block caving expertise because civil engineering companies do the mining...

So why do you have to have a CEO who has built a mine?

Jakob was CFO of Rio Tinto and previously Chief Internal Auditor of Royal Dutch Shell before he became CEO of Rio...

Someone posted on here and ADVFN that Nick had confirmed it direct...

To repeat...Nick could sell to DGR...

Get real Father...

"Independence of Thomson Reuters

Customers across the world depend on us to provide them with reliable and objective news and information.

This means that we have a special need to safeguard our independence and integrity and avoid any bias which may stem from control by specific individuals or interests.

The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles were adopted in 1941 and include the preservation of integrity, reliability of news, development of the news business, and related principles.

Today, the Trust Principles are fundamental to our entire business."

Unlike the BBC, Reuters sticks to their Charter...

"Trust Principles – the history

The Trust Principles were created in 1941, in the midst of World War II, in agreement with The Newspaper Proprietors Association Limited and The Press Association Limited (being the Reuters shareholders at that time). The Trust Principles imposed obligations on Reuters and its employees to act at all times with integrity, independence, and freedom from bias.

Reuters Directors and shareholders were determined to protect and preserve the Trust Principles established in 1941 when Reuters became a publicly traded company on the London Stock Exchange and Nasdaq. A unique structure was put in place to achieve this. A new company was formed and given the name 'Reuters Founders Share Company Limited', its purpose being to hold a 'Founders Share' in Reuters."

Come on iceberg...don't get like Quady...

I was using Reuters for decades in my 'City' days...

You can read those headlines/articles any way you want, but they are fiercely independent, otherwise they don't have a business model any more...

The two independent sources that are most widely quoted across the world are:

Reuters

AP (Associated Press)

In these circumstances...off the top of my head...north of £1...

Nick could be the key...

I still think the Board's best course of action is to JV Alpala with NCM and possibly Porvenir or Rio with BHP...

Let's wait for the RNS and see what if any speculation that stimulates...

Remember in Augist last year Solgold was 'the hottest takeover story in the City..." as Nick posted on Twitter...

I don't honestly believe he would 'leave and dump' after 15 years, but...

Who he sells to if he's required to relinquish his personal holdings could be interesting...

Of course DGR cannot be compelled to sell theirs so maybe he'll sell his to them...would that put them in play...?

And having said it would take a 'blockbuster' bid to persuade him to sell SOLG more than once in the past, he's not likely to sell for a pittance...

So which 'predator' would make him the most money...?

Ice...you haven't posted their full News list for SOLG...

https://www.reuters.com/companies/SOLG.L/news

I hardly think a headline like "https://www.reuters.com/companies/SOLG.L/news is CGP supportive...

You might want to read their "Trust Principles"

https://www.thomsonreuters.com/en/about-us/trust-principles.html

Including...

"That the integrity, independence, and freedom from bias of Thomson Reuters shall at all times be fully preserved;

That Reuters shall supply unbiased and reliable news services to newspapers, news agencies, broadcasters, and other media subscribers and to businesses, governments, institutions, individuals, and others with whom Reuters has or may have contracts;"

Why on earth would your hero Nick Mather voluntarily 'step down'...propocol is that he would have to sell all his shares...

Unless he becomes a common or garden NED...?

There's more to this than meets the eye...as there was with the 'resignation' of the `GFD' in November...which means that SOLG will have no permanent CEO or GFD...clearing the decks...?

Priyanka Jayasuriya left both SOLG and DGR in November 2020...he hasn't turned up anywhere else...

Why did he and Nick split after 10 years of working closely together in both companies...?

Interesting article Orchard...

My only observations are that...

He has only mentioned JiangXi Copper as a bidder apart from NCM and BHP...my own pick is Barrick, but there are plenty of others on the gold or copper spectrum, such as Lundin...

Secondly, there is the J P Morgan factor...

There is growing consensus that we may be on the verge of another Mining consolidation, with Juniors the prime targets and the whole sector massively undervalued cf the rest of e.g. US stock market...

JPM are widely cited as having manipulated gold/silver markets...

On elf the reasons I have a massive holding in HOC is that, since Eduardo reduced his stake from 50% to 38% I believe they are 'in play' and JPM facilitated the sale...

No love lost between JPM and Cit, so JPM to engineer a SOLG takeover...?

Reuters claimed it as an 'exclusive' Aguinaga....they are a highly credible source...

Copperpot...this is a RNS matter, as was the departure of the GFD...and are the two linked...?

Agree everything in that post Colonel...

The 'reinstate' comment was posted from Quady's observation...not mine...

I don't believe this is 'dirty tricks' scrat ...I believe this is the new BoD taking control back from a 'privateer'...

It'll be interesting to see how the SP reacts tomorrow TMT...

Will this increase the takeover speculation...?

Is a JV more likely (i.e. have NCM or BHP made it a condition of any JV that NM departs)...

The smaller investors may sell because of Mather going...the MMs will take any excuse to mark the shares down, but...

If he goes now all possibilities are in play...time to hunker down and wait for the big bucks...

For those of you who also have interests in gold/silver mining...

And of course we are talking about SolGOLD on here...there are some points directly relevant to us, re 'Junior Miners' etc...

Sprott are by far one of the biggest gold/silver investors...

Enjoy...
