Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
I thought lockdown was over! :-)
I’m expecting a steady flow of positive news like this, followed by a number of rocket emoji RNS in the days ahead. Hold your nerve people.
Yesterday’s sp action purely reflects the unrealistic expectations of rainbow chasers. The fundamentals here are still amazing!
The slight drop today is MMs loading up to the gunnels from weak and poorly researched PIs. Monday is the day.
“Is it us?”
You can’t blame Innova for trying. They are about to see their sales plummet as UK gov sources a UK made test. What do you do if you are Innova- build a factory in the UK.
No mention of new contracts in the article and remember there are billions to go around. Plus, plenty more countries to sell to even just in Europe.
Boris has told Alistair that if he sells AffiDX in Europe before the UK he will chop his balls off.
20 engineer team for 5 months perhaps? That sort of engineer horsepower gets a LOT done.
My take on this (with some interpretation)… UK gov have awarded £1M to Toyota in Derby to pay for their highly experienced production / manufacturing engineers to essentially build an LFD factory to satisfy the demand for LFDs.
This is fantastic news. The Japanese invented just about every modern high efficiency manufacturing process going. They know exactly how to set up flow lines, automate, measure Takt time and Kanba, LEAN and 5S the backside out of a production facility.
Makes sense for Toyota as car production is presumably on a go slow at the moment and highly skilled engineers are available. Friend at JLR says they are running skeleton crews only.
Massive production volumes are coming!
Simon James. You know feck all about Avacta and you also clearly know feck all about the VHS vs Betamax format war.
Go educate yourself…

Great idea to write this. Some thoughts from me:
1. Emphasise somehow that the swab is taken from just inside your nose.
2. Possible alternative story along the lines of ‘Brilliant UK developed Covid test being sold to Europe while Boris keeps buying Cheap Chinese tests.”
Ideas for headlines:
“If you can pick your nose you can prevent Covid”
“Aye up! Yorkshire Covid test is world beating.”
“Get nosey to stop Covid.”
“Covid - China started it, Yorkshire stops it!”
Nearly posted this on Twitter the other day. We are minnows in a sea full of sharks.
DYOR = do your OWN research
Never seen any such messages about needing to pay bills on here. Posted at 7am close to news. Ask yourself what the true motivation for this post was. Very subtle deramp.
Sell then.
I’ll see your £3B tender and raise you an £8B DPS.
I tried to take the bus yesterday. Waited there a whole 10 minutes and NOTHING ARRIVED. I was utterly shocked that senior management at the bus company would allow this to happen. I have applied for a refund on my annual pass because, as the evidence shows, the bus company don’t have any working buses.
Went to the supermarket after that. Can’t believe Heinz are no longer making Baked Beans. NONE on the shelf so obviously they don’t make them anymore.
The data we have regarding the false positive rate even on Innova tests makes me think this is the stuff of urban legend. Sorry, I’m calling BS here.
Yes there is a bar. Sir Al has left his Avacta corporate credit card on an open tab. Has told everyone to “have a few on the company and chill the **** out.”
I’m not saying AffiDX in its current form necessarily will but surely with the flexibility of Affimers we could put an updated test out very quickly if needed.
