A giant game of chicken...22 Oct 2024 09:31
Lets be rational here...
Solgold has a vast resort with an in the ground gross value of c$210 BILLION..thats £162 BILLION...
Compared to the prices assumed in the revised PFS that value has increased at current prices by $50 BILLION or £38 BILLION which is PURE PROFIT...compare that to the MCap of £268 MILLION...
The ore is in the ground...
The company has no cashflow problems for the foreseeable future and...
Prospective copper offtakers are, quote, 'salivating' at the prospect of a $900 million copper offtake deal...
There are at least TEN serious players in the data room...FNV did MONTHS of due diligence and Noboa told Solgold he wanted them to move faster with the permitting.
Now we know that SOLG is an 'explorer not a miner' so it is only a matter of time...
NONE of the major holders have sold a single share, despite the steady fall from 45p to sub 6p and now sub 9p
Newmont decided NOT to sell when they took over Newcrest...but they sold Havieron...
So...its a giant game of chicken...
Like us, all the prospective bidders are waiting and watching....FNV decided there was no material geopolitical risk...
So unless you're desperate...or dumb (like NAL etc)...and haven't overcommitted yourselves
Why would you sell a single share...?
