WTF? Just logged back in to see this. Not ideal, hopefully it won't be a big issue. Bit of a shock to hear Robjm66 is out, has brought so much to this board for a long time, maybe too long?

Not unusual for that part of the world, let's be honest. There's always going to be "problems" where these countries are concerned, history repeats itself far too often.

Hold for gold.

Has been below $5,000 this morning but currenlty back up to $5,015.47.

Every little helps!

Over 100M now and not even 10 o'clock.

Sp being dragged back in to the 1.9's preventing progress above 2p but expecting this to close above 2p today, and I think we will finally get the re-rate we all expected last September/October once the last US$20M is signed up and the ground breaking ceremony has been completed.

Forecast is 7p at construction start and that's not far away.

Over 70M now. This is getting very interesting.

Well over 53M now.

No rush, patience is key here and will be rewarded. Big time.

Gone NT on HL now.

2p paid. Wow.

Ask just hit 2p.

Almost 41M now. This could test 2p by 9:00 the way this is going.

34 million and counting. Could be big day today.

... caught a few unawares by the look of it.

I hope it's like the bus from The Italian Job, full of gold!

I hope it doesn't end in a cliffhanger!!

"You're only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off!"

*believe

I also think this is still suffering from "the Harry effect" - some people simply won't belive this is a done deal until there are images of gold being produced and they are paying dividends. It'll be too late for them by then.

Shame 😉

I think it's possible dvh, seems to be going through the gears pretty quick at the moment.

Good spot SGD27, thanks for posting link.

Harry - "The upside is huge".

It is. We just have to get there and we will, some patience required for the inevitable re-rate.

Hold for gold.

@cjm682 - yes, you have misunderstood; the point I was making was that the profit on my mere 1M shares already exceeds the 3k allowance (and I would pay CGT if NOT already in an ISA) just imagine the scale of the 'problem' if you had 6.5M shares (I think you do?) or 28M like poor old Caterham7!! 😉

Fortunately C7 already has his safe from tax too.

A friend of mine has an ISA and a Fund & Share account, and has been so succesful in recent years his F&S account now presents him with a potential CGT problem so he is trying to 'Bed & ISA' £20k worth of shares - especially divi stocks - each tax year and could take 4 years or more to move across. The problem with doing that is he then can't put anything else i.e. cash into any ISA. As I said to him, all his own fault and what a terrible problem to have!

Roll on next week.

What a terrible problem to have! Just imagine having to pay tax on eye-watering profits, and the bigger the holding the bigger the problem, potentially.

Personally I only have a million shares (in my ISA) but even the profit on that already exceeds the £3k allowance.

CGT on shares is currently as follows:

Basic Rate Taxpayer (18%): Applied if your total income + gains remain within the basic income tax band.

Higher/Additional Rate (24%): Applied to gains that put you above the basic income tax band.

Look at it another way, if you do have to pay tax (I get that nobody wants to, especially to our useless Government) you'd still have 82% or 76% left after tax, respectively.

Still possibly life changing with the sp predictions that have been suggested.

5,500,000 available @ 1.9 if anyone wants them.

Fingers crossed this holds above 1.8 by COP and doesn't get dragged back into the 1.7's.
