> This isn't the expected news right? H feasibility still expected...

Correct, and this today is essentially bonus news.

Dcgc, not laughing and I see your perspective but I believe you may be missing something fundamental. SD isn't looking to build the share price. He's looking to build value over time. And that difference is a reason why the company isn't just rushing to get Havieron into production. I can't remember the wording from the RNS's but the strategy that GGP are working on is to optimise returns over decades. And that isn't necessarily going to be prioritising Havieron at all times. Of course it might turn out that way, but we haven't had the mine plan yet.

> It seems success in finding more gold is not what the market needs at this time.

And you are right. As has been suggested elsewhere, the market is waiting for the FS and a financial history of results. Remember, retail shareholders aren't in the driving seat any more. Sentiment won't do the job here like it did in the 38p days.

> difficult to explain. Imo

Not really. It has been explained! We are still waiting for the proof to know if we were correct.

> that all the institutional investors were waiting for DFS and a full years balance sheet before piling in

This that you mention still holds as a possibility. You may not believe it, and it may well turn out to be incorrect, but at this point in time no-one can dispute that it is a possible and valid reason based on historical evidence with other companies that COULD explain it.

Just got my ticket - it'll be my first in-person GGP event and I'm looking forward to hopefully meeting some fellow GGPers!

If the winner of the FS date competition is also attendingI will buy them a pint, at any pre-town hall pub meet up. There will be one of those, right? At London prices that's probably worth a few ounces of GGP Au.

If I had horses I'd call them Pritt Stick and Uhu.

Droverman, no gold bar I'm afraid but a gold crown is possible.

Just got to find a sharpie to cross out the Burger King logo and we're all set.

Ooh you just snuck in there :-)

Poniexpress to clarify their guess.

Had to log out to see who the green bin replies were. Freddie2, I had greenbinned you (can't remember why) but you posted in good spirit so you're in. Culpooper, you're just being disruptive as ever.

Excel says the average of responses so far is 5th December.

If I've not mentioned you, apologies, please let me know.

> Can we add a bonus prize for the capex?

I like this idea!

@poniexpress - which one are you going for?

Make your guess* for the date (UK time) of the Havieron Feasibility Study announcement, just for fun. The Chair said the release would be 'shortly' so make of that what you will. Every so often I'll recap the entries. No prize for the winner except the glory and respect of your investor peers**:

I will start us off with:

December 8th.

* If I've green binned you then you are disqualified from entering. Tough.

** The prize has no cash value and no cash equivalent is available.

Agree with all the comments. These commentors aren't giving us any insight here with generic statements about facts that we've known for donkeys years. It's barely a step up from Motley Fool analysis. I'm impatiently looking forward to the FS and updated MRE from GGP so we can calculate proper likely cash flow, not just throw superlatives at it.

Also they could dissolve the company, sell all the assets, return the funds to shareholders and retire to the Bahamas. Personally, I think my suggestion is more likely.

Manafon25, no need to thank me. From your reply it seems I wasted my time.

> ASX expectations, referencing SD's own words, were clearly much higher from the inception

Please can you show me the words that indicated SD believed he'd be seeing more benefit from ASX inclusion at this point? I'd like to interpret them for myself.

You don't seem to realise that GGP is still at the beginning of the beginning of its life on ASX. No FS, no Telfer mine plan out yet. Yet already you're concerned after a few short months? As a genuine LTH and not a day trader, what does it matter to you? You know - assuming a good FS, Telfer plan, etc - that the interest will come. Why are you so concerned?

> honest

I'd have believed that if you'd accepted that GGP not yet reaching the major milestones - those previously mentioned - constrains how institutions/funds, etc will invest. But you seem to be conveniently ignoring that fact. There's a lot of agenda-pushing derampers out today. If you don't want appear as a deramper, perhaps be more balanced?

Manafon25, I am not trying to be rude but you don't understand how markets and big instos work. You aren't alone - most don't seem to on these boards or, for a small minority on our GGP board, it doesn't fit their agenda to tell the truth. For the GGP SP to be impacted by ASX buying power, we just need to wait. Time is needed for a track record of delivery and financial data to be built up - plus the outcome of the Telfer mine life extension and Havieron FS. Once that has happened, and we're not talking too long now, then things will start to move. To expect the ASX big dogs to suddenly pump lots of dosh in before they have that hard financial data to chew on is not how it works. Be patient, don't be concerned.

"at least i make an effort"

You are such a troll.

Someone send Shaun the link for Temu. Might be able to reduce the AISC that way.

Ok, thank you.
