It was also said to be imminent... So many times.

Anyone who advertises using banner ads on LSE can be judged to be a scam. It's the mouthpiece of the desperate. The dark domain of classy acts like AST and crypto...

Is that some vanadium in your pocket Daisan?

It is an incredible investment indeed. I don't think anyone disputes that! I would help if Fortune moved the discussions on a little, we seem a bit stagnant at the moment. It's been a funny old year - strong share price rise, amazing V prices and very little news.

A sale on this morning... Re: perception of SA, it may be less corrupt but at the moment it seems far less mining friendly. SA seems intent on promoting its sunrise industry by talking only about who is going to get what from the charter. Showcasing a few success stories and granting of licenses alongside this might help! Mokopane for example... Everything is so cloak and dagger at the moment. The very imminent news for example...

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2018/jun/18/uk-pension-funds-get-green-light-to-dump-fossil-fuel-investments Quite a few £Bn potentially looking for new energy investments as more II's realising that their money needs to move away from fossil fuels. All part of the paradigm shift...

Hybrids with lithium and V aren't out of the question though... Remember this? http://www.swatchgroup.com/en/group_profile/innovation_powerhouse/industry_4_0_overview/a_revolutionary_battery_by_belenos

Playing professionally doesn't mean they agree.

Agreed entirely on your final point. It's good to keep challenging what we are seeing though and aiming high.

*should read ' with the rest of the charter.. '

I also imagine that this is a case of TMC choosing their battles carefully rather than being in full agreement that the rest of the charter they have not taken issue with publicly.

Yes BBN, it is an improvement but conversely that wouldn't have been hard to achieve. You surely can't deny that the sales pitch is not really marrying up with the end product here. I don't dispute any of your points, and respect your angle however I just think back to the SONA and I just feel like this is a tweak rather than a wholesale change in direction. I have had my doubts about Gwede since day 1. I don't think he is an innovator. I don't think it's wrong to want SA to aim higher than just a revision.

It just doesn't seem like the charter mooted and for me regardless of the impact on BMN, that is the disappointment. It seems a long way from what Cyril suggested would underpin the restoration of mining as a sunrise industry for SA. The 1% EBITDA policy, coupled with 30% BEE, 10% free carry legislation feels like the wrong strategy. The charter should be about letting companies grow and sharing their success, rather than crippling them from day one. Tbh I am suprised about the quotas. They so rarely work because they are not related to capability. (I think Faramog also mentioned this). The UK abandoned its quota system for disabled enjoyment in 1995, preferring instead to rely on legislation making it generally unlawful to discriminate against disabled people in the hiring process and in the employment relationship. This has been far more successful than quotas ever were because it focuses on suitability and injustice rather than mandated employment. In France there are penalties for not meeting quotas that are up to 600x the hourly rate. Many companies pay the fine rather than meet the quotas. I am all for equal opportunity and success for everyone,but it's not rocket science to see that an ailing industry needs space to flourish and develop a level of success that can actually be shared out more broadly and in a robust way for years to come.

https://m.dailykos.com/stories/2018/5/29/1767826/-The-War-on-Tesla-Musk-and-the-Fight-for-the-Future An interesting read on the man in question and the shorting around Tesla. If I owned SpaceX, I wouldn't be so bothered about reality.

It would be pretty straightforward to write accessible, market friendly executive summaries. I agree with Daisan, the way some of our RNS' are written does not always seem to consider new investors. EBITDA is an easy way to articulate success. It's not about exaggeration, it's about marketability and building buzz using factually correct information and well chosen language.

It certainly isnt chicken feed bought at these levels and it definitely won't be when your holding is worth £250,000.00 + in the not too distant future.

Patience is not only a virtue, it's how you make money from Bushveld. All the research in the world can't help some people to do what should be the easiest thing in the world - buy and simply just do nothing.

Paid...

Paid... Time to start kicking on.

Great news however surely that didn't take 3 months to sort out. Perhaps this means the news is about to start flowing...
