Nasty virus going round.

OR

You cannot emphasise it’s certainty and then add ‘in my opinion’.

Nothing is certain.

I would expect administrators to manage the disposal of SM in a more impartial manner than our BoD.

My view is that if you were to vote ‘yes’, you should have sold up when the sp was 5.5p. That would have provided some certainty for you rather risking a ‘No’ vote.

The only reason to hold must have been to vote ‘No’.

OR

We could have sold everything except the MTS for £1 and retained the MTS.

I’ve bought some shares in AAL (down 10% so far so still better than SXX :) )

OR

The SM business case was rather compelling. It remains just as compelling today.

I take full responsibility for the number of shares that I hold. My diversification comes from owning properties rather than other stocks.

I would readily accept the AAL offer if I thought it was fair and reasonable. It is not. I believe it to be opportunistic at best and potentially a potash cartel play. Time will tell on that one.

SM have failed because CF failed to attract Stage 2 funding. Brexit uncertainty caused by our government’s inept strategy for delivering on the result of the 2016 referendum will have played a part. Had the government no been stronger and spoken with one voice, Brexit would have been delivered in March 2019. The junk bond markets would have been more likely to support the cash raise.

I don’t want the BoD to benefit from the sale of our mine. And I’m prepared to throw my No vote in to the ring. Whatever the outcome of the vote I will sleep well knowing that I acted in line with my conscience. That is democracy.

I will not be bullied in to voting for something that I do not believe is right.

OR

I guess so. He’s over on GGP now spouting the same happy clappy stuff.

I really hope he has learnt something from his experience here - but I doubt it. He needs to bank some profits on the pump phase and buy back on the dump phase.

I’m local but I have no interest in talking to the ST - unless they pay well.

Not only that but without a market for Poly4 created using our money, Boulby would almost certainly have closed.

We deserve better treatment.

Karma is good but I find it needs a helping hand sometimes.

OR

I’m happy to cut my nose off if it means the BOD get their snouts cut off too.

Not a fortune for me.

But I voted No for so many more reasons.

OR

I have voted No.

I’d rather see the project fail than for for AAL to prosper at my expense.

Yes, I am bitter.

I never invested more than I can afford to lose but that doesn’t mean I should be happy to lose it.

I typed more but decided it was to to delete it...

Serve it cold.

OR

What is particularly galling is that had Stage 2 gone as planned we would have had a fantastic, world-class project showing what is achievable in the UK.

OR

Not much to report.

OUR money paid for all the work to date. It paid for S106 works in the area. It paid to secure millions of tonnes of future sales and associated trials.

The project needed government support in the firm a treasury backed guarantee. The Tories don’t like miners nor do they like the north of England.

And now AA will steal it all from us.

In that case, anyone concerned that voting No could be the wrong thing doesn’t need to worry, right?

OR

I understand where you are coming from Scotman however, it’s a No vote from me.

I might not be allowed to punch the BOD firmly on the nose 155,000 times but I can hit them with 155,000 No’s. (See what I did there :))

OR

Hoes it (DEV) going now Spks?

OR

Tell them your voting for the SNP.

OR

Apologies if posted before...

OR

If there was never going to be a government guarantee (that SM would pay for), was the whole IPA pre qualification in 2015 merely a charade?

I’d rather the hole was filled in.

Without the backing of the SM shareholders there would no polyhalite mine and even Boulby would have closed by now.

We have shown that there is a market for Poly4. Our money has developed this amazing opportunity.

To steal it away from us is simple theft. I hold a grudge for a long time.

Karma needs a nudge sometimes.

With a market cap of £16m it doesn’t take much ‘pumping’ to move the sp. Make sure you bank some profits before the inevitable ‘dumping’ begins.

As SXX’s naive shareholders follow the ‘red hot tips’, it is so easy to suck mugs in to ANY small cap share.

Of course, just my humble opinion. DYOR.

OR

Scarborough or Woodsmith for a picket line.

Whatever the outcome of the excavations there is one irrefutable fact. You need to sell when the price is high and buy when it is low.

The positive spin is that GGP is down only 4.3% this week (like that’s a good thing). The negative spin is that it is down 31% since Wednesday.

The sp will rise and fall. Sell on the rise and buy back in the fall and you will be happy.
