It would be great to see that deal confirmed, Alfa!

Enerox GmbH holds much income potential for Bushveld Energy and the consortium!

Anyone expecting a repeat of yesterday?
Target price 10 to 12p?

Alwaysone! The only correct intelligent thing you have done is choosing your avatar! It sums you up.
This share will be worth many multiples of its current value later this year and within 3 to 5 years well, in the pounds.
But please do tootle off and go and buy some of those amazing other investments you loved and spares us your devastating life story of the horrendous last 3 to 4 weeks.
Clearly you have read nothing about investing at all!
Hope you find the perfect share! If fact we all do.
Good night!
I best not say what might be coming, they might stay around.
Cheers RK:-)

Here is an additional part which explains how life settlements work:

I am sure many 'long term' investors will be familiar with this interview, it is only a short snippet but helpful none the less - https://t.co/vGO7XEwEHq?amp=1

Sorry if this has already been posted today. I don't remember seeing it!

Ferro Vanadium 80% FOB (China) US$28.5/kg vs US$28.5/kg - Ferro-vanadium prices rise by 1.6% to $22.5-24/kgV in Western Europe following 0.7% rise at end December

Vanadium pentoxide prices also rise by 2.3% to $4.8-6.1/lb n Rotterdam following 3.8% rise at end December.
Ferrovanadium and vanadium pentoxide prices appear to have held stable in other regions.
Vanadium can boost the South African Mining Industry (Mining Weekly)

New deposits are required to revitalise the South African mining sector, as the industry has been hampered by falling production, strikes and upheaval, according to GlobalData analyst Scarlett Evans.
Mining production has begun to stabilise in the country, rising by 2.4% from a year ago, however, this was driven mainly by a 23.7% increase in iron ore production.
For the South African mining industry to reach its full potential, it must harness minerals that are becoming increasingly important to meet new technological demands, such as rare earths and industrial metals.
The country has 50% of the world’s vanadium source in the Bushveld Complex alone, a metal which is used in the manufacturing of lightweight alloys and superconductive magnets, according to Bushveld Minerals* technical adviser Dr Richard Viljoen.
*SP Angel acts as Nomad & Broker to Bushveld Minerals.

The other more worrying point is:
"South Africa - ESKOM Chairman resigns, President Cyril Ramaphosa notes the resignation

Given ESKOM’s regular load shedding and it’s negative impact on the South African economy it is perhaps surprising that Jabu Mabuza lasted so long.
Ramaphosa is expected to place Eskom under the control of the minister of mineral resources"

The sad thing with the above statement is that the man Ramaphosa is putting into position is one of the exact issues facing SA right now. Why do these countries and governments put these "mates" in the top positions? The 'old school' way of thinking never going to be the solution.

God help SA! These people deserve better.

Ophidian, we are used to fact based investors looking for king term returns. I guess as this had a large jump and most people would not understand what this company does let alone the potential long term returns here. The easy thing is jump on a wave, ride it till the wave breaks and then sell up and see which one the crowd are following next.
I know from reading here there are some good guys who clearly have been invested and following this story for some time and the long term looks excellent.
Cheers RK

Come on MM's how about making some shares available!!

NT at the moment to buy!

There is no doubt that our multiple parts of this business are not just rooted in the position of Eskom! Anyone who thinks it is really is deeply wrong.

The sales of Nitrovan to the US is still this companies largest revenue earner. But the development of BE and the links with the VIP's will bring huge opportunity across Africa and exports of either V205 or V Electrolyte in the years ahead will be massive.

The is no doubt in my mind that Fortune and Mikhail are more than capable of developing the market as they need to.

Cheers, RK

In end folks, this share clearly is going to be worth significantly more than it is today, based on the points listed and the upside of this new potential. There will be news coming and you can be sure it will not have leaked. But the float here is small and multiple well-researched people are buying in and that will push the SP higher. It really is quite simple. But this has a lot to go and no one has put the rocket into count down for launch yet!

Thanks to 2mex for this summary of key points!
Some key points to note:
1. Alpha has probably the top life settlements market maker, Danny Swick, with $8Billion of trading experience.
2. Alpha with SLIM has in-house actuarial expertise specific to life policies - a quality not found in usual settlement businesses
3. The above two points are validated in the progress towards $100million credit facility
4. Points 1&2 are inlet and processing. Austin King, with extensive connections has been brought in for the outlet; the sales.
5. KPMG has validated a 16.2% annualised return on this uncorrelated asset
6. "this uncorrelated asset": the asset class is not affected by general market
7. Alpha has structured a tax-efficient system which will bring in global investors
8. Black Oak fund has already received commitments for seed capital of $15 million
9. The market is absolutely massive at $19Trillion with $57Billion policies lapsing each year
10. Only $2.8Billion of policies are settled each year. The $57Billion lapsing is there to be taken.
11. The market will climb over the next 10years as baby boomers retire
12. Note the wave retiring is more tech-savvy, internet dependent: ideal for targeted marketing
13. Point 12 also means that social media / marketing will build life settlement awareness
14. Perhaps THE key point: Life settlement is a great option, far better than surrender or lapsing
15. The $100million credit facility can be used to buy $500m of face value and repeated 4x per year
16. Alpha has a unique situation with specific talents amalgamated for Life Settlement
17. Legislation is already present in 6 states to ensure life policy holders are made aware of the settlement option.
18. 2019 Annual report: "..For 2020, we expect to be generating material revenues and as 2019 closes, at the date of this report, the company has approximately £450,000 of cash balances, so the group is very well positioned as we move into this new phase.."
19. This is a scalable, low overhead business which has potential ahead to 10bag, 20bag etc.
20. Based on the projected targets Y1:FUM $100m, Y2:FUM $350m etc, the projected FUM after 8 years will be approaching $8 Billion
21. Potential for asset manager(s) to increase credit facility
22. The initial $100m trade target for year 1 indicates confidence of business developing quickly. After Y2, expected annual increment more than $250m
23. When asked about 3-5 year target/valuation: Danny Swick's reply "..Yes, I think the ultimate goal which I think about on a regular basis is where we get to a point where we have a market cap in excess of $100million.."

Just rocketed again! Could easily finish over 3p today! Gone very tight!

This is looking very good with supported buying!

Really makes you wonder how far this will move before the news let alone what will happen afterwards. There cannot be too much more float around. Last week you could not buy. This week so far there is a good float around. Max buy seems to be around 5K.

Cheers, RK

But not yet ;-))

There seems to be plenty of shares available this morning, at no point has it gone NT!

Thanks Rob! Sounds like is going to be time-consuming, but ultimately very much worth it!
There is a surprising number of people here! Still, if this gains traction it could well be the share of 2020! Best keep quiet otherwise buying will be impossible! Never thought I would find another true BMN type share.
Cheers RK

It sounds like there aren’t going to be many shares left to buy! The MM’s are going to have to work hard to make a market!
Last week buying £3k’s worth in a batch was hard buying more maybe impossible! Going to be an interesting week ahead!
Cheers RK

It’s Beautiful :-)))

Well Rob, this is looking like another very exciting prospect. All part of trying to keep a balanced portfolio. I will be building a strong position here.
However, I maintain my holding in BMN as that is a long term for me as it has such strong upside.
This however looks like is going to have very strong growth too over the years ahead. The short term upside looks very strong, if people are not just buying in building quick and getting out, then the long term prospect for a business as exciting as this really could be an industry disrupter.
Cheers RK

The full least of income streams are:
Nitrovan - two grades - Vametco
V205 - Vanchem
V203 - Vanchem
FeV - Vanchem
Vanadium Chemicals - Vanchem
Vanadium Ore - Bushveld Mokopane - Comming!
Iron Ore - Bushveld Mokopane - Potential
Vanadium Electrolyte - Bushveld Energy
Electrolyte Leasing - Royalties from Bushveld Energy
Bushveld Energy - VRFB Sales in Africa working with VIP Partners and others
Bushveld Energy - Renewable Energy Projects and MicroGrid Projects in Africa
Bushveld Energy - Enerox VRFB Manufacturer
Afritin - Income from the 8.1% stake in the business
Lemur - Either income from the sale of the business or progress and long term income from the substantial power generation project in Madagascar

So if anyone thinks that Bushveld Minerals is a one-trick pony then think again!

Last years huge profits gained from a surge on vanadium prices helped Bushveld Minerals leapfrog the other market potentials and now even with low prices it helps us jump even further ahead as the other players are held back from huge investments right now. That's why the Bushveld Energy VIP program is so important to Bushveld Energy and also so important to Avalon, REDt and others to give the market long term supply.

The Battery Energy Storage market is looking to be the most exciting sector as the world changes from fossil fuels to renewables and VRFB look like taking a larger slice of this market than we thought might be possible.

They may not be in every home, but they are likely to play a huge role in both Grid storage and Mini-Grid storage systems around the world, the ability to make renewables work will be globally significant!

These are exciting moments for Bushveld Minerals investors. It beggars belief that the market still has not seen this opportunity, but the time is coming when it will.

In the meantime get excited at what is coming:
- Mokopane Licence and operation explanation
- BESS tender news
- Bushveld Energy Projects
- Bushveld Energy Electrolyte Plant update
- JSE Listing and possible move the FTSE

All the exciting news!
