Excuse my calculation there - I got carried away, and the £50m+ will be for KMUK... but with 49%, we will hopefully show £20m+ of income (something KOD have never showed since me being here at 0.09p back in 2020! 😀

"So they are travelling thousands of miles to promote Kodal plc and this is how they do it? Major red flag"

I'd be interested to know your holding Joe/Silver/Sylvia. It's clear to all that the project is now mining, hence income (as we have seen).

What we haven't seen (yet) is the increase to the balance sheet on quarterly accounts.

Nobody of any substance, apart from big retailers, are investing in KOD - we all now that as well, for the simply reason that no hedges/pensions/institutions buy on news, they need to seed the balance sheet of actual results to insure their 'punt' is fully insured.

Great news on not only the 95% (at port) but the 5% being paid so quickly after the ship got to Hainan - that suggest no issue with quality of the spod.

Another 20k shipment due soon, and then the same for the next 12 months (36 months if no issue with production) so essentially we have a company with zero input showing on current balance sheet to maybe £50m+ once next Q is produced.

Happy to be in on that. 👍

In for the ride - I never short stocks.

My only point was that the need for assays was pretty much on the back burner with the recent interview. They know what they've got already, and they're being very cool in how they go forward... therefore I am personally not putting to much emphasis on the assays for the two holes, if it drops, I'll but more. 👍

I will add it's only hole 1 and hole 2 assay we are waiting for - they already know the close to the dome they get the better.

I'm almost hoping for crap results of those two holes to allow the SP to dive and a massive top up is possible.

What RNS are you waiting for? Assay results? Interview said clearly it would be Feb (so another 24 days to go to get the RNS) and even then it was considered to a non entity based on mining continuing from April.

I suggest we look at the somewhat lacklustre interview and realise what they are clearly saying; Assay results may come back OK, but either way, the knowledge they have of mining after April (if it's more assay or major drill) suggest to me that they know they have a Greatland site here.

It's clear they weren't worried. It's clear they had a smirk on both their faces all the way through.

Imagine winning the lottery and not being able to announce that fact, but feeling smug as hell about what you have?

That's where we are with WSBN, in my humble opinion, and movements at the moment are nothing more than a top up if they go low.

Unless I'm being fooled of course?

..where other punts have done well and WSBN (along with IMM) at a low - good time to transition funds in my humble opinion. Might leave it for the weekend to see how low this can go.

Strange though - it was said in stone that assay results would be some time in Feb, and mining not starting again until April so is the down because people simply forget these key points?

"....it should make the granting of any future gold licencing a lot easier if Bernard decides to progress with this"

I think that is the key point. Seems to me that the jigsaw is coming together perfectly.

100:1.

And yes, that is prior 😀

Consolidation shows confidence, it's got to be on the cards.

Just a quick hello from me - that dinghy I took to look at mining has paid off, which is nice, and although I've sold all RR in the interim, it's great to see the HMS RR main ship at around the £12 mark! Well done all.

Hopefully Captain Svend will allow me back on board to share opinion along your merry voyage, even if it's just the ships cat with no holding (I'm good at catching rats!)- we're getting close to that Feb results to see if RR thrives or dives.

Will RR continue to rise, or will it dive as I suggested all those months ago?

I have more in the pudding now as my ex SJP financial advisor tells me he's keeping RR. Great guy, and often right.

I humbly request I am wrong and your share holdings contuse to rise here - I'm very happy with my choice of the mining (68% up in 5 months), but I want this ship to prove me wrong.

Honestly the very best to all of you.

Totally agree - many thought I was an idiot to sell my RR for mining but my thought back in Feb 2025 was mining has a 5 year gain, hence my big punt on KOD, WSBN, ECR to name a few - basically, anything that was mining gold, silver and lithium (with a touch of copper).

Again, my own opinion but it's served me well so far (68% up) - let's just hope that continues!

All the best to you in your ventures!

... all that said, I can't see there being a reason not to consolidate shares in the next 12 months. It must be talk behind the scenes already and a 100:1 consolidation should be put forward in the next 6 months. Downturn, as always, followed by true value and then an upward gain as KOD becomes an investable asset.

I have my own goal elcobbledore, one I had back in my initial purchase at 0.09p and it's all about the MCap (not SP - we now SP can change due to added funding etc)

With everything Bernard suggested back then, my rough figure was 500m MCap.

With all the new data since then (Hainan owning around 15% of KOD, and MALI and Hainan owning a vast degree of KMUK), plus the guaranteed off take from Hainan at port for the next 3/4/5 years (based on continued agreement of course), I'd suggest a non gold mining (purely lithium spod) to be around the 900m+ Mcap - once quarterly, half and end of year accounts continue to support what is thought to be guaranteed.

So that MCap to SP gives us a realistic figure of around 4p+ SP.

I have to hold until I can draw on the SIPP (another 5 years at least for me) so the gold license alone in that interim could take that to 5p+.

I do feel however that Hainan are ready to take over KOD prior to any new license so as long as KOD don't recommend to sell early, I feel 4p a share is worthy in the short/mid term.

All in my very humble opinion of course. 👍

Very true - I saw RR from a 95p average to selling at £11.80 (somewhere close to that as I sold in chunks).

Along the way, I witnessed people buying new cars, houses, boats etc... I only ever wanted a new scratching post. I'm a cat. Nothing better than a £17 awesome scratching post from Pets at Home! 😀👍

Totally agree my friend. Hell, he could have chosen something less taxing to earn a few quid but he saw value in what we now all witness.

I'll always back those with gumption.

I do hate graphs - always seem to do the opposite of what actually happens but my personal graph of expectation is rather different to what you have posted Winstonwolf. Median figure showing 1.5 with a bottom end of 1.3, and a big increase to the 1.9 mark come this week end.

Again, I don't like graphs, but my graph does make sense.

Currently low volume trades, but I'm personally sitting on an amount in ISA and a larger amount in SIPP.

I did sell all my RR stocks to get involved in mining as I feel that's the place for the next 5 years in terms of considerable increase.

It's showing signs of increase (Gold, Silver, Lithium) all up, so I hope I can keep a lid on things and not get to carried away, but I can't see any other sector getting closet mining in that time frame (apart from IMM with their soon to announced JV).

Nothing is set in stone, high risk, but let's see what happens.

Good look to you all.

Backing up Chef and Bloggs to some degree, newbies do indeed need to understand a realistic increase in a portfolio and not get carried away with the big increases some shares can show.

I can only talk from my perspective, someone who had a managed SJP fund of around 10% per annum who then chose to transpose to SIPP to get a 65% increase in 9 months - obviously high risk and can go up as well as down.

Overall portfolio in 6 years is 389% up. That's from me doing what I do, no advice from others, just my own funds with my own risks,. and that's what everyone here should be doing. Ignore the crap (chaff) when people try and give advice, or in the realms of Chef and Bloggs ets al, try and dictate a negative to what is obviously a positive stock.

No certainties with any stock, let alone AIM, but do you own thing and ignore everything else.

Needed to be said.

Exactly 'Painless' - the constant moaning on here from the few is downright boring now.

You want to invest in Lithium - look at the MCap of all Lithium produces and decide if you feel they may go up or down.

Simple.

You want to invest in gold, do the same.

The fact that KOD may have a opportunity to mine gold under license is promising but nothing to spend your investment on.

It's that simple - so please ignore these idiots and do what you feel is right.

"Nettles, when the share price was 0.09 the focus was gold as seen by the £2.5m funding agreement they had with Riverfort Capital to explore, at which point they had 8 gold licences."

Not entirely Badomen - my whole reason for investing in KOD (seems a long time ago) at that point was to find any share willing to look at mining lithium due to the basic theory that electric cars where on the up - this was pre Tesla price increase. The only thing I could find was Berands interest in the field in Mali to get at least a pre mining license. I never thought of gold when I first vented into KOD, it was all about the Lithium.

Now we are were we are, I will agree that I though the share would be way higher - it was 0.85p at one point pre mine, but I'm a sensible LTH with 5m shares and I can't cash in for another 5 years so this in keeping with my original goal.

Silly to suggest otherwise.

Sorry to bleat the bloody obvious here but are you guys serious investors?

It was clear from my purchase way back at 0.09p that this was about Bernard securing a lithium licence in Mali, that he got. To then go to drilling, that he got, to then get a JV with Hainan, that he got. And you are questioning if he shouldn't have done the gold at the same time?

Come on people, we know how hard it was for Bernard to get the Lithium up and running (currently 95% payment at port.ship for 3/4 years with obvious extension).

Rather than question him on the gold licence, can we have a bit of credit for the guy? He, and the BOD have done amazing well for us shareholders (well, the ones that trust him), and the Lithium to come over the next 3/4 years to Hainan will get us to a degree (SP wise) you never dreamed of.

Give the guy a break and realise that the gold license with Mali will be there when asked for.

Jesus - sometimes, it's like listening to someone who has won the lottery, only to find they have to spilt it with others with the same numbers.

LTH all the way - ignore the chaff.
