Wile...yes, this year’s raise was for good reason, for expansion. ‘Economies of scale’ was the term the Chairman or CEO used at the time. However, due to the Covid crisis, the expansion plans have been suspended and it appears the funds are being used to keep the company afloat. No arguments from me, it was the right thing to do. The issue is, to reignite the expansion plans the company is going to have to raise again. The company isn’t making a profit (or not much of one) by mining alone. I’m afraid it’s very much chicken and egg. Can’t expand without the money, can’t make the money without expansion. I haven’t got the expansion costs to hand so if someone has, it would be interesting to see them. With the next tranche of cash to be released by Teichmann giving us a cash balance of between £1.1m-£1-4m and the last raise being £1.9m with a cash balance of around £750k, I’d suggest we don’t have enough. If ever there was a time for a big stone find, it’s now!!!!
