Alba retains 54% of £11.12m at the launch price, so 46% or £5.12m is being injected into the group, with 22.9% already being held by other significant shareholders.

In all the time I've been following Alba, and it goes back quite some time now, this is the most significant equity raise they have undertaken.

It provides a measure of their ambition to advance their projects and at a greater pace than in the past.

I believe it marks a watershed moment for the stock and this, whether the market recognises that watershed moment straight away or not.

China’s central bank said all cryptocurrency-related transactions are illegal and must be banned, sending the strongest signal yet on its determination to crack down on the industry. (Bloomberg, 28 mins ago)

They are sitting on a vast amount of high-grade gold, aren't they?

"fantastic place to be, it's unique".

Don't think I've ever heard GF say that before of the Dolgellau gold belt.

The British are pretty good at bureaucracy, too - it was the British who gold-plated the EU's directives.

Imho, that is where the real money lies.

Just had the opportunity to listen to GF. Towards the end, he sounds very excited indeed by the Dolgellau gold belt:

from about 13:17:

"massive number of targets",
"it's such a prospective part of the world",
"there are so many gold targets",
"effectively, we are in control of the entire gold belt",
"fantastic place to be, it's unique".

Iraq warned that oil demand will probably rise as the supply crunch in natural-gas markets forces consumers to look for alternative fuels, echoing the views of fellow OPEC member Nigeria.

“There is some new concern,” Iraqi Oil Minister Ihsan Abdul Jabbar said in an interview.

Iraq is ready to pump more crude if the increase in consumption warrants it, he said from Dubai, where he’s attending Gastech, a conference for the gas and hydrogen industries. “If there is agreement within OPEC, we will be ready,” he said.

(1) The flooded lower workings are estimated to hold 800m³ of water, or about 1/3 of the
volume of an Olympic-size swimming pool. With the water to be pumped at a flow
rate of up to 4.2m³/hr (100m³/day), it is estimated that the lower workings would be
dewatered within just eight days.

good work not "word" work.
