Off subject, but is anyone else following the AAU (Arinana) story unfolding in Turkey as an asset. Only mention as like MARL, it is a resource found in Turkey. Many thanks
Many thanks. All understood.
Many thanks.....That's what thought until I read that posters comment. The Directors scheme/deal/plan this evening is worth = 96.20 (For 100% MARL Assets)
Can someone tell me is this true? Is this the case? Am am following the SANDSTORM Chat forums very carefully and someone has stated: BUY OUT PRICE is LOCKED @ 1.17 USD (109.71 £) I assumed the buy out price was going down as the SANDSTORM SP is crashing. Welcome clarification on this.

Someone posted this on: https://uk.advfn.com/stock-market/london/mariana-MARL/share-chat: http://www.kereport.com/wp-content/uploads/0429-2-4.mp3 This is well worth listening to. Firstly,we have all the implicit faith in Hot Maden reiterated but now that faith is appreciated from a Sandstorm point of view. Glen P. is already wearing a Sandstorm hat.Further drill results from HM can be expected in June and updates from Cote D'Ivoire and Argentina interests can also be anticipated as part of a precursor to the creation of the "spin off " entity. Sandstorm is known to Lidya.I think this is important.It could be that Mariana was pushed in Sandstorm's direction by Lidya who are happy with the gold streaming franchising idea by all accounts. Why on earth Parsons should strike a deal with Sandstorm prior to further drilling data is extraordinary. Mariana are funded into next year and it's highly likely that further drilling data might confirm Mariana as a more valuable asset thus benefitting Mariana shareholders. It's got to be about politics and the Mariana management getting a nice deal for themselves because the economics don't seem to make sense. Mariana are being sold out on the cheap. The irony is that Sandstorm shares are declining such that is questionable that the deal will go through. It could be that Sandstorm are falling because of an indifferent gold market of late or concern that it won't be able to tie up a Hot Maden gold streaming franchise deal but frankly Parsons seems to have no doubt that it can be done,very much to Sandstorm's profitable advantage. Hopefully,there's another bid in the wings. One that will recognise Mariana's full potential. One that Parsons won't champion unreservedly because it might not assure him a very lucrative future. https://uk.advfn.com/stock-market/london/mariana-MARL/share-chat
So...Has anyone heard back from the company. I never did. Is the resource now 5 million oz Is the resource now 6 million oz It seems only the directors of MARL / SANDSTORM are party to this information. Yet the directors can base the sale of the company the 2016 historic resource estimate.
Someone posted this on 'Stockhouse': RE:Seeking Alpha - Thoughts on latest deal Believing anything on Seeking Crapa is dangerous to your wallet. You have to pay up for great projects. Stock's down because the arbs playing games, like usual - they short this & buy MARL. Thus end up with SAND shares after merger, while simultaneously fleecing nervous retail suckers to dump their shares, cheaply.

http://www.stockhouse.com/companies/bullboard/t.ssl/sandstorm-gold-ltd Maybe there are other chat-sites, but found this one. Share holders think they have MARL in it's entirety for 'Peanuts'. Talk of a 'run on the stock' and drive up to 500 plus after the mm down move (currently in play). Interesting. Very interesting. .
Shareholders (UK/USA/Canada) might consider voting 'NO' at this stage. The directors have not updated the resource value since the summer of 2016 and the PEA left investors unable to calculate value without the industry standard AISC. There is a lack of transparency at this stage and the impression is one of concealment.
0.77% (Directors will not vote) 8% plus (Sprott could vote 'NO') 20% plus (Sprott associates under instruction could vote 'NO') % (and I am guessing most 'retail' UK shareholders, and those US/Canadian retail shareholders who were not 'shafted' and 'spooked' to sell with the 'media-MARL-EXIT-spin-machine') = NO % (Then shareholders who just do not vote at all) Interesting. Very interesting!!!
Someone posted this: PEA only covers first 62 drill holes. Best results were posted 'AFTER' the 'PEA'. No wonder SPROTT does not support the deal (This has been my 'argument' for nearly 6 months when Directors were pumping on their Media circus, but never updating the resource) Another posted said: IRR plus 100. AISC $400. Must be THE BEST IN THE WORLD. I've never seen figures this good.
A poster on another forum has stated that the 'incredibly low' AISC (coming in under $400oz/au) was omitted from the published PEA and never made public. He cannot find another occasion where a company has omitted this vital piece of financial information from a PEA. The gulf between the net asset value (post production, including 20% tax) and the actual SP / Takeover plot will be enormous.
Has anyone had a reply from the company as yet. Shareholders need to be aware of what the Directors are actually 'Giving away' The HM resource 'must' now stand over '4mil oz', with 5mil and 6mil oz not out of the question. Then there is ERGAMA on which little is known. Are the company not obliged to inform its share register of the total 'net' asset value of the company prior to any 'hatched' inner plan. I do not 'buy' into the 'fake media' stance that this is over and everyone should be happy with the premium (which is actually no premium at all, just a blatant manipulation).
My Broker has also confirmed this week that a US stock can be held within my ISA. The normal TAX-Wrapper is still valid. So no problem.
Let us be resolved here.........EXIT means EXIT....................A NO vote means NO.............
Sprott and Resource Capital will both have to release an OPD disclosure ( all holders of more than 1% have to) within the next 10 days so we will know how many they have. If there is another approach then Mariana must disclose it when the talks get serious even if there is no firm offer. The option to go to an offer and therefore win control with 50% +1 share is standard, but it is harder to buy out any minority this way hence the scheme which is a cleaner way of doing things. I am net long of MARL and short of Sandstorm as the spread is wide by current arbitrage standards.

A poster on another website has stated: The deal is dependent upon getting 75% acceptance although Sandstorm reserves the right to implement the combination by way of an offer thus giving flexibility should the 75% hurdle not be met'. So, this must mean: Any deal voted against by shareholders = SANDSTORM then have to put in a 'HIGHER' offer. In the interim, pressure should be put on MARL DIRECTORS to release the 'TRUE' resource estimate that all have been waiting for for over the past 6 months.
I am not a legal expert, but are MARL not required to update the market NOW with the correct resource value/estimate, prior to the sell off of an entire company. 10's of drill holes have not been added to the out of date resource estimate, including some 'high' quality hits. There was the expectation of a doubling of the resource. If this is known by MARL/SANDSTORM then shareholders are not being provided with a transparent understanding of the resource prior to any sell off.
QUESTION = If SANDSTORM is shorted down to 'nothing' in the US (or close to nothing). Is the deal then 'OFF'?? Or can MARL DIRECTORS still go ahead with a court action and try to sell out the whole company for 'zero' to SANDSTORM (Oh, plus those few pennies Sandstorm are throwing in as a gesture to shareholders, what was it ...23 or 27 pennies, something like I remember without having RNS to hand). Thanks for any replies.
