The point I am making is the technical success of a project is dependent on a team not on a heroic figure with a title. Hence I dislike this hero worship

You do misunderstand me at all number of levels….

Pedro my objection is that you credit all this success to the ceo. This is fundamentally misconceived. As a former ceo I can attire you the success of a company is dependent on many people. Maybe the key decisions were made by a junior engineer??? Please stop the hero worship

At the risk of drawing further insults crime a gentleman called lickmyace (he sounds charming I must introduce him to my daughter), in mid February DB mentioned a further drill program to increase the resource. My understanding is that it is distinct from those results from the current foot print which were disclosed in April. These are of particular interest to those with CVRs.

As major suggests it maybe that no-one knows anything more about this…

Mr Liq - why do you have to be so rude? Did I offend you?.

Those were not the drill results to which I was referring

Does anyone have any insight as to when we are likely to get drill results? I assume the lab has been up and running for a while now.

I spoke to MC around the time. There were negotiations. It did not quite happen. Not MC’s fault

Chilli if you believe there was never a potential deal why do you think DB said there would be an announcement in H1

If DB said something will happen in H1 why is this a “hunch”

I am no fan of Raynor - I really don’t like her- and I am not a labour supporter but I would cut her some slack. This was a mistake anyone might have made and she has paid for it in numerous ways. I am much more interested in the Reform shenanigans which seem much more serious

In contrast I have a small fortune: I started with a large fortune and invested for 15 years in the gold mining sector

My Abra mining is up 150% in a few months . Equinox doing great. As Senigred points out relative performance here is bad relative to the precious metals mining sector generally. Hence DB is on the naughty step for me

So Tornado - the share is well and truly down so we are waiting for you to load up. Maybe if you do the price will go up

Following Broomtree’s comments, I have several hundreds of thousands further to invest but I have paused because I have become more uncertain about the quality of info received. Dupax, Abra and the unexpected remergence of contamination as a concern leading to reduced production this year, all badly dealt with in my opinion Maybe I am alone in pausing for this reason? But if others share my concerns then that might explain the terrible share price performance over the last 9 months . If DB fails to deliver on his promised announcement in the first half then this capital will be deployed elsewhere

Chilli - it was really unsatisfactory. He never disclosed the specific drill results. He initially said they would be disclosed on a rolling basis from last summer; then there were storms but some drilling had taken place; the drills had to be moved because they were in the wrong place: then there were photos of drill cores with no commentary; then people on this board disclosed the protests which the company did not disclose; then then the company stopped talking about Dupax ; then they finally announced it would not be proceeding. But they never actually disclosed the drill results or informed us how much drilling had taken place. Absolutely shocking PR in my opinion

So another example of the Sakura curve. Any ideas who is selling today and why? Generally miners are up

You make a fair point Lee. On acquisition my caution comes from DB's tendency to make predictions and then not make them good. He is speculative sometimes. I am not saying that is necessarily a bad thing (although not my approach) but it leads me to doubt that an acquisition will be announced by the end of June just because he suggests in might. I got my fingers burned with Dupax and Abra.

But as I keep repeating I will be super-happy if you are right and my caution is misplaced

Vanvan I recall first year production is 100 million as opposed to 140 million.

I am not aware of any reason why Candy would sell and personally would not read anything into this

Mr Weasel - there you have become an expert already

Simms there were a few occasions when Condor was in the doldrums when you said the silence was likely due to an NDA and that we were on the verge… Maybe you will be correct this time. The only other person I know who is as relentlessly positive as you is “DP”
