Seeing-2020, I was also pondering about PM in London. You wouldn’t send an underling, Let alone a chief executive half way around the world for a 15 minute slot in a busy lineup. The cost in terms of time, let alone money would be prohibitive. Clearly there’s an easy stopover in Singapore, which hopefully ties in with the airshow tweet, but there’s got to be something else in Europe first...

Car maker Fiat Chrysler is on the brink of shutting a major European plant as the supply of crucial components from China dries up due to the coronavirus outbreak.

It would be a huge missed opportunity if none of us could make it. He might only have a short slot, but afterwards it’s a great chance for a one to one and perhaps a few answers, is anyone in the vicinity...

What shed said, I was typing at the same time...but slower!

members of this board have questioned the way news has been released on numerous occasions, the scoping study for example came out regretfully in piecemeal fashion. The sp has not reflected the company progress, nor any of the de-risking to the Toral Project and these points are certainly connected.
I am beginning to wonder if there’s a strategy to present a complete package of our outstanding updates concerning deleterious products, mets, permits, drilling results etc and perhaps make a big announcement at the same time. (?)

Well that’s the party organised, there’s only one minor detail, (or should I say miner detail) So over to you Laurence...

10BT, assuming a successful sell, I’m off to Canberra Australia, I understand that the weather is lovely at the moment...Bali will have to wait.

Terrym, Reading between the lines of your recent aviation posts, are you similarly also suspicious that the Imminent contracts they are going after are the OEMs.
Boeing Airbus Bombardier et al producing north of 1600 airliners a year Between them would certainly brighten our day.

And if anybody has any doubts about welsh, have a look at his posting history

The direction has been obvious for ages but it’s pleasing to watch, albeit early stages. If there’s only one pilot, we’d better make sure he’s awake and able...

Today’s RNS included this in the aviation section
“Seeing Machines' Aviation division continues to engage with some of the largest global brands to develop additional pathways for Seeing Machines technology to manage pilot monitoring in aircraft operations and in support of air traffic control operations.“
Which is not dissimilar to this mentioned here by Airbus
“Only ten years ago, the idea of autonomous vehicles on our roads seemed like a distant reality. And yet, rapid advances in machine learning—as well as sensor, camera and mapping technology—have been making great progress. But autonomous technologies are not only applicable to cars: they are also influencing the development of more autonomous flight. ”

According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), air traffic is expected to double by 2037. This will necessitate approximately +37,000 new passenger and freight aircraft—and more than half a million new pilots to fly them. Given this expected increase in air travel, other solutions will be required to support pilots In aircraft operations.

Cobra8, in fairness to you, I would agree with a lot of what you say in your 18:57 post.
We have all done a lot of head scratching and wondering about the disparity between where the market cap is and where we think it clearly aught to be, all things considered.
I readily accept that the management have made mistakes,( most notable being the disparate way that the scoping study was released). In fairness however I personally believe that things have changed, and that they are now collectively moving forward in a clearly more focused manner. The interaction with lloydy was imo particularly positive, in fact I emailed LR to ask whether he would consider inviting one of the more informed posters ( not me) to Toral and then report back to boost investor relations.
Where we differ (and I’m really not looking to be confrontational) is your 14:12 post. Reading it (for me) was like sitting in a boat that’s sailing choppy waters, and watching someone drilling additional holes in the bottom.
There’s no problem with different views, voicing concerns or highlighting own goals in a balanced fashion, that’s the strength and purpose of the board.
let’s hope that the saying that it’s darkest just before dawn is true for the exceptional asset that is Toral.
Enjoy your evening,

Cobra8, no one in their right mind could have possibly written your entirely negative last post about anything that they are currently invested in.
Others, including me do however have our hard earned invested, therefore I will not continue to repeat your subject heading, which is undoubtedly your intention.
I will not engage in a childish squabble, however feel free to filter me.

applegarth, I’m Not sure that’s a real word, but it absolutely should be and I applaud you for starting its use!

I’m cancelling our crossword competition challenge with smart eye on the basis that we’re rubbish and clearly it’s something that smart eye are going to better at...I always knew there would be something!

It’s a reference to Sesame Street, but I don’t know why either!

whilst not wanting to get ahead of ourselves, I’ve been musing what might be our options In the future.
If, (and it’s by no means a certainty) sold in its entirety, then obviously we don’t get the money, but we will own a portion of EUZ which has no current project, but a bulging bank account.
Clearly the sp would reflect the changes, but what next, a special dividend perhaps, news about another potential project quite possibly, retention of the undrilled areas as Toral phase two, ideas welcomed.

We have repeatedly asked for an update and Laurence has listened and delivered.

I think that it’s significant that there’s no current intention to start a new drilling campaign and to conserve cash. Onwards!
