In which case Angus if I felt that way I'd be looking for a new home for my money!

You can add to that Tom:
- he brought the Rom assets to the company
- he enabled the diamond concessions to come back into play

Excellent post Tom.

Dodge why aren't you answering the question asked by several people? You don't have to of course, but no need to be embarrassed...! (Or is there?)

I still don't understand your 'cut and paste' vendetta. Don't you have anything more positive or worthwhile in your life to pursue? I bet you're a riot on a night out!

The sp may or may not move due to your constant spoutings, Mister (or Mrs) but you don't exactly do it any favours do you, Negative Norman?! Sentiment on boards CAN influence sentiment around a share, and as far as I can see all you and your ilk are doing is casting doubt and negativity over a rather excellent investment which deserves more respect (and yes, considered criticism, where due), than you are affording it.

Spot on VM - times amd circumstances change. No one (well very few) holding Vast/ACR even a year ago would have believed or even dreamed that it had a cat in hell's chance of mining diamonds again. But here we are! And priorities had to change accordingly - Vast is a small company with limited economic and practical resources and AP has to use them in the most expedient way to maximise shareholder returms in the most efficient way possible. Losing PP/Eureka was pity, but 'swapping' a behemoth with no prospect of fcf to shareholders for years to come (amd a shed load of debt) for new fast-and-huge-returning assets. No question and a masterstroke in my view.

With you all the way on that sentiment Kingsley!

I agree - the share price will zip up in no time (well it can't fall much further in any case!). AP has his faults and Vast has its risks but you can't argue against the World Class Assets he has brought/bought for peanuts and proper World Class partners now circling round the Vast wagons. I'm a very optimistic and pretty substantial shareholder in both Vast and Blueberry (I don't suspect you aren't though eh Dodge...?!) and happy to continue to be so. I am looking forward to a stellar couple of years from both investments.

Hear hear Kingsley, Lee, Sandy, Castaway et al. I've got Dodge (and a couple of other likelies) down as one of those mythical (or are they...?) paid de-rampers - or someone with a very odd, pathological negative outlook on life. Yes there's plenty to be critical about, lots of mistakes made, and I'm all for constructive debate from which we can all learn something - some of us have done a substantial amount of research on this company over the years but there's always something to learn. But frankly we're all sick of hearing the 'Dodge and Fantasy let's-bash-Vast playground roadshow'. so why not give it a rest and try to contribute something useful. That way this board might return to being the useful informative forum it once was.
Oh and don't bother telling me to filter you. It's not the answer.

Sandy - agree - and although like you I'm one too, I kind of agree with AP re 'investors' by which I think he means 'beer money traders' - which although is completely legitimate of course, in my book does not constitute 'investment' (retail or otherwise) and certainly doesn't warrant moaning on a bulletin board when things don't go their way. It's why I don't come on here much anymore, I got sick of hearing it. And another thing - getting warrants extended at the last GM was, I thought, a good gesture from AP and the board to support those real LTHs who have stood by the company through thick and thin and were there to prop it up in 2016 when it really WAS in trouble.
All that said, he really does need to come up with some goods now, and sharpish.

Morning all.
Noyt
NCCL yesterday - rampy ramped all over the Twitter I see - you still in therr NH/Spec? Starting to sound promising again - GE doesn't let itself be quoted on a piddly AIM RNS unless it's serious, surely? Might load back up on any weakness (if there is any).
VAST - Can't decide if that was a precursor to some sort of nasty CLN and/or yet another placing?
SXX on Sky News last night - placing ahoy!

Morning all - yes happy April!
DCTA - progress
OEX - not much progress
VRS - they rns the opening of an envelope don't they
HNR - 'lining up' the sales (lol)

Morning - NFX pretty short yes, but it's another 'cure for death' company isn't it - start of clinical trials - it's got a long way to go yet.
Yesterday's bagger - missed that.

Can add to 4) "replace Nomad with someone more helpful, less obstructive/negative/ ie one who lets the Company explain and educate the market about things like the fact that getting rid of SSG/PP has become a POSITIVE thing". Easier said than done, I know.

VRS I meant US not UK

Morning - VRS raised £5 or 6m last year (at 165 iirc!) but at the rate they're going through it (eg with all this expansion in the UK - cf today's RNS) they'll be back rattling the tin shortly.

Depends which type of machine you assume...

Sandy - have also been doing some numbers. Even on a conservative basis they appear mind-blowing (notwithstanding that Kimberlite and downstream activities require investment of course). I am disinclined to post them on social media (especially here) but could be fun to compare notes sometime.

Morning. Not a lot for me - IOG statement is helpful, but can't see it moving much unless someone bids up.

Pepco - agree, good post. I'd also urge anyone who missed it to read Lee's post from yesterday. I'd add a couple of things to your (and Lee's) lists:
- getting BP moving paves the way to Remin (I'm sure I don't need to repeat how big that is!)
- Blueberry is churning away in the background, news so far has been exceptionally good (though an official update would be welcome).
- Diamonds will indeed need funds - but hardly likely to be a problem imo.
Onwards and (back) upwards!
