Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
I emailed them, apparently the chat is causing issues else where on their site so they are trying to put a fix in to sort it. Not holding my breath.
Not in here either.
Personally it depends on what other news is still expected. If FDA and Guident news has been released I will probably top slice as I feel the others are longer term projects even Salarius, just can't see multi million £ contracts being handed out in the current environment, maybe a buyout although that could be wishful thinking!.
I've got a question in about the trial results, I'm really not holding my breath to have it read. In my eyes this AGM is going to be a waste of time as they are going to pick the questions they want to answer as they have the time to go through and pick out what they want people to hear rather than what people want to hear.
