As Bitcoin pointed out, the whale investors did seem to appear around the time the BM access situation was rectified. Hopefully that is significant.

MM's happy to snap up stock though, getting above bid quotes for decent volume. I suspect those who liked the interview or saw the value added will be buying at these prices.

It was as expected really. Lots and lots of build up for a pretty mediocre interview, classic ECR. I think Andrew Scott realised this was the case when he tweeted about the need for more regular bitesize updates yesterday, which I appreciated.

Less prime rib, more last night's lamb shank. We really didn't learn anything new except for perhaps the antimony data collecting and AH's ambition to find a giant at QL. New info needs an RNS though so I understand it was never going to be an interview full of nuggets (pardon the pun).

Solid news needed indeed.

...There was also talk of hitting Queensland full on from July, so a few months way...

Yet another imminent short term positive.

Well there we are.. The market reaction to Andrew's LONG AWAITED interview is negative. After a night to reflect, I think two things have stood out to me as to why people weren't overly impressed -

1. The first proper interview, hello, nod to investors was NOT VIDEO. Watching Andrew speak with just a low resolution Jpeg to look at was weak IMO. Video's are so much more psychologically effective, particularly when conveying a bullish message. I'd much rather have waited another few days and had a proper video interview. Every other company do it!

2. 2-5 years was mentioned as Andrew's vision to grow ECR into a World Class company (or hope to).. This includes developing Victoria resources and hunting for an elephant in Queensland. Investors have clearly read this as 'nothing's going to happen for 2-5 years' which is patently incorrect as they are ABOUT to hit Blue Moon (arguably our most exciting prospect in Victoria), potentially get game changing licenses that cover more of the DMS, assays due back from HR3 that could complete Adam's 'exciting' anticline model to develop a resource from. THESE WERE MISSED from the interview! There was no mention (or question for that matter - C'mon Scott!) about what we can expect SHORT TERM.. Andrew Scott knows the market is fickle, investors have seen 2-5 years , rolled their eyes, and sold..

Please correct the above ECR.

From a frustrated but overall positive Holder!

Thanks for that AS01, good reminder that they aren’t just making it up as they go along ha

‘JV inbound....’

Pretty sure sure BitCoin just spilled the beans there ;-)

‘Objection hearsay’

Access issues at Blue Moon that are now resolved Gino.

The 'vibe' of the interview for me was a bit of a double edged sword... By that I mean I'd have loved a real sales pitch, all guns blazing bullish rhetoric.. that would certainly have lit up the bulletin boards and had us all looking through Rightmove... BUT... that has proven to backfire if expectations are raised too high (think JV hype to 4p).. Instead we had a sensible matter of fact business talk. I think realistically that was a better approach.

Andrew means business. No flannel.. That's what we need.

Remember ECR have their own rig and have one in transit (arriving soon but delayed due to costs). Queensland is ours. Overheads will be staff, transport and travel costs, which if managed properly won’t be horrendous. A drilling campaign in Queensland shouldn’t be earth-shatteringly expensive surely. Yes I did think the interview cut off a bit abruptly, and I do think Andrew should have made his first proper investor interview a video call. We need that backlog of results back and a proper timeline. Although I like Andrew (both of them), it wasn’t perhaps the meat on the bones as we were let to believe.

Decent assays, aggressive blue moon drilling + ‘boots on the ground’ in Queensland will get us going.

Seems a bit of a mixed reaction.

Craig was perhaps being a tad stubborn playing hardball with JV offers.. I could see Andrew taking on a less agreeable offer BUT get it all done and dusted and cash generating to fund his preferred assed (QL). Who knows! Feeling confident though.

I agree. I see Andrew turning our existing discoveries into cash generative assets ASAP to prop up the company and self fund Queensland. He’s clearly eying up a monster discovery in QL but getting a solid JV in Victoria and developing those will underpin us nicely! And the SP will surely follow.

- Bailly + Creswick... Looking to build resource. Clearly minable but need to continue research (results due any time).
- SP wise, Andrew wants results to build the SP, not 'a new drill rig' etc

I got the impression Andrew didn't want to come across as OTT. Craig had the propensity to perhaps over egg the pudding a bit. He is definitely very confident though, clearly.

Looks like there is an aggressive plan to turn Queensland into swiss cheese while simultaneously building the resources that we have already discovered in Victoria. I'd have liked a word on Blue Moon but I suppose we already know about the future drilling there.

QUICK BREAKDOWN FOR THOSE WHO ARE UNABLE TO WATCH -

- Andrew is VERY impressed (couldn't make that point more clear) with Adam and the geology team.
-Bailly & Creswick - 20-50cm veins but high grade, multiple structures, clusters of veins - Adam & team honing in as results come in.
-Impressed with new technique (finding antimony as a pre-cursor) - turns months of searching for drill targets into weeks/days so the pace will be much better going forward (compared with historical data collecting).
-Licenses will be sorted soon, Adam on top of land issues.
- Andrew very open to JV idea. Commercially minded.
QUEENSLAND - Our biggest tenement by far, 5 years to play with, 100% owned - TERRITORY OF MULTI MILLION OUNCE GIANTS. Lots of visible gold in the pans. Conditions ready for exploration. Andrew wants BOOTS ON THE GROUND asap.
Philippines - Need to sit down and hash out value + where to go from here.

VISION - BIOLD FROM THE BOTTOM UP - Great existing portfolio - new opportunities emerging - fantastic skilled management - have the toolkit (waste no time) - MULTIPLE GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES.

Overwhelmingly obvious Andrew is in it to find a giant goldfield. Wants ECR on world stage.

No Bulls**t, straight talking. Andrew Scott was a pretty solid interviewer also.

Onwards and upwards.

Feel free to add things I've missed.

HERE IT IS - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JBVLlBOaYs

Indeed TS.. An agonising wait but the jury is out.. It could be a blinder.

Andrew Scott has also committed to more regular updates PR wise which is a positive development.

Sentiment can change in a heartbeat here.. It's rock bottom atm so surely the only way is up?!

Nice 1m buy. Getting quoted for 1m+ to sell again (limit was 100k earlier), usually means a buyer is in play or MM's want stock ready for some action..

Would be ace if the interview is indeed this afternoon, will make for an exciting day!

''#ECR It's taken a bit longer than many would have liked and we appreciate our shareholders' patience. From here on we'll be doing these on a fairly regular basis to keep everyone informed.'' - This tweet was from AS btw.

lucaduca1616 -

The chat with the new ceo will be out later today with @AndrewScottTV keep eye on the @ecrminerals page for the update later today hopefully a good interview ??#ECR

I don't get this.. is the interview later today then? How does lucaduca1616 know this information?

This interview has turned into yet another overly hyped carrot dangle. And yes, I think we've been very patient thank you Andrew Scott (referencing his tweet).. It's time to deliver. We were told Q2 would get busy.. yet to be seen & long termers are getting itchy. C'mon ECR! pull your finger out!

It wasn't so much that the buy was significant... more that the MM's dropped us 4% on bugger all volume then you scoop up 800k or whatever and they don't respond accordingly.
