For an assortment of reasons it would seem that we will not be able to grace the banks of the River Wey in May. However, since this would leave a couple of places available to new arrivals, I feel quite benevolent in making way.

I trust that a toast will be made to our new ceo and a resounding boo and hiss to the rotten old stinkin' '22p' market makers for ..well...just for being market makers really. (If any turn up please ensure a chain and block of cement is readily available).

You're both right. I am in error. For some reason I had 5.2 in my head. Too much walking around I guess.

There is a typo on page 32 unfortunately:

"Initial Inferred Mineral Resource estimate of 52Mt @ 2.0g/t Au, 0.31% Cu or
2.5g/t AuEq for 3.4Moz Au, 160Kt Cu or 4.2Moz AuEq"

Wouldn't that be nice? 52mt !

Hi Speedy, That's a very kind offer but I hope we will already be back in the UK by May visiting family, having been 'locked out' for six months. If not, it will be because we are still forbidden from travelling not only within Portugal but also to the UK from Portugal. It's an open air prison here again! That's why I have kept quiet about the event.

I've just finished a nine mile walk. In a ridiculous self-challenge I've now decided to add half a mile each day until we get free again. Sometimes it feels the share price will be £1.44 before that becomes possible!

We try to be rational people and make decisions that are based upon facts and the extension of those facts, which would probably described as judgement.

The facts about GGP have been carefully researched by a fantastic group of learned investors here. That research includes links to interviews with senior management as well as the dissection, into layman's terms, the data contained within formal company announcements, (including those from Newcrest).

These facts, so ably assessed, should have provided sufficient information for all of us to feel very comfortable with our decision to risk our capital. We are invested in an historic discovery at Havieron. It's mind-blowingly huge and everyone wants a piece of it for the cheapest price they can get it.

Doesn't it seem a bit odd that at precisely the time when the value of the mineral wealth, still contained within the site at Havieron, starts to become blindingly obvious to the general market that the share price should descend by 40%? This is the judgement bit. Would you not think that perhaps those whose business it is get a share price moving up or down would do their level best to feed fear or greed as it suited them?

The mineral wealth is there as well as, potentially, at several other sites. Do not be fooled. Hang on to the seatbelts, hands firmly planted and wait for this to blast off again!

Very interesting video that and I agree, when he is asked to list out the things that persuade him to invest, you can tick every one for GGP.

PS , please do not leave Bamps. The green filter box is available. There is still time to save yourself!

Yes please to the link Speedy. In the meantime, I've just been reminding myself about Claudio Gentile on youtube. Hope he is isn't related to him!

Or Knocky...or...all those flaky investors who only come on board when the price is rising will pile in on Monday.

24p on Google. How odd!

Haha...headline in ABC news:

" Minibus containing bunch of old Poms missing in the desert. Last seen five days ago wearing shorts and medallions and waving excitedly out of the side windows of the vehicle."

Thanks guys for your thoughts. I guess all will be known in due course and it does feel that the sp is a little spring-loaded while we await a raft of announcements next month.

*Panama....yes a tag team alright and the mush camp abides ty!

In view of the way the share price moved drastically (the first time) and then didn't move at all (the second time), when the GDXJ included GGP, could it be that there is something happening in the background in preparation for the forthcoming March review for the GDXJ and possible admission to the GDX? I've heard claim that 5 to 10 million shares seem to be unaccounted for every trading day for some time and the share price seems to be unnaturally held down at present.

I could be talking out of my ascomycota here but I'd be interested to hear what others think.

Please keep posting these snippets of information Spy, within the boundaries of what is allowed on LSE of course. I find it fascinating to read and adds a bit of intrigue to the board as well as contrasting with the superb posts from Bamps, for example, who lists the 'well this is what we have' with the 'and this is how the big boys seem to be reacting to it' stuff.

Yes, btw, I remember the Havieron anomaly musings. Spot on as it happens.

Talking of cars, I'm on the lookout for a cheap runabout for my daughter and have been scanning the availability online It's evident that diesel cars are being virtually given away on the run up to the electric revolution. Not only that but she lives in Bristol and the city council has decided to ban diesel cars from the centre from 2022. Pretty drastic stuff.

(Anyone know a little old lady selling a petrol one for 2k btw? :) )

Seriously? That buggy looks excellent for breaking a hole in the ice to do a spot of lake fishing but for a journey several hundred metres down??

Wouldn't mind having the second of those two numbers though Spy. :)

I'm definitely up for two coins; one from Havieron in gold and the other one from Scally in copper. :)

Hi Texlax , well that is very kind of you to say so! It's been a rollercoaster alright and we are back in lockdown again in a rented ex-wine storage barn (sadly all gone). We have had a bit of bad luck in recent times: We earmarked two houses as potential buys and both failed because they were not licenced correctly. The bad luck was I would have had to cash in 500k shares just before year end to pay for the cottage and was cursing my luck that I would be withdrawing so many at 'only' 37p per share. I would have done it but because the sale fell through, I left them alone.

Why? Why me? Why??

This is a tough time for the nervous pi, or even the non-nervous pi for that matter! There are other, seemingly, more 'instant' profit shares around, so why not take out the cash held in the GGP and have a little fling elsewhere? I also swear a lot of it has to do with lockdown boredom and the ease of online trading. I feel a bit tetchy about it but still focus on the main prize.

Our 'Klondike' gets ever nearer and although we lost a bit of speed during the storms recently, we still have all four wagon wheels left and great supply of picks and shovels.

Hi yellowstuff, Trust all is well with you?

Yes, put that way, it still looks like a hell of a growth doesn't it? It's all psychological really, I remember when we met up for a coffee that time, you were wearing a hat with a 20p label on it. (True story folks) and we were both as pleased as punch to be celebrating the breakthrough. The price is now 22p and the sky is falling? Hmm

Anyway, I trust you have a 50p label there somewhere. :)
