BB, do you actually think that Fortune is just not communicating for no reason and is just sat there looking at the share price thinking 'nah, I'll just leave it floundering'.

Of course no one is happy with the share price, but I find it quite bizarre that anyone familiar with Bushveld can actually think this radio silence is for no reason. The quieter they are, usually means the bigger the announcements that follow.

Visits like today are designed to make people ask those exact questions. These are the times to have conviction (which I know you do) and not let these ar5e holes win by letting doubt creep in.

Be dispassionate and see people are trying to unsettle you. They aren't getting emotional. They are just trying to get people to sell.

Luderitz, I think there is a very good chance this has mileage. Look at the collective that have arrived since Friday.

Last time this was a precursor to a big rise.

These people are ruthless and will do anything for a good entry point.

He definitely isn't here to offer an alternate view. He only ever does this at these moments. If that was a credible story he would not take the approach he does and turn up and drop about 30 posts in one day.

He is here to unsettle people. Whether that be as a paid troll, a shorter or a swing trader. He acts like this all over LSE. He may find this approach successful, but to pick on companies and investors that have already had a long and difficult year with covid says everything about the type of human he is.

He's a lowlife.

Calamari, I really couldn't care less. The only reason you would turn up then is to try and start a move down. You are an insidious individual and whether your one fixated point is or isn't right really isn't the point. The point is why you do it and that is at the expense of everyone who supports Bushveld and to undermine their investments. Fact.

How do you always know what BBN has posted if you aren't on Twitter?

Steve, are you ScubaSteve on Twitter?

Calamari will fixate on one thing. Repeat it endlessly to leave it in everyone's heads and will disappear when the SP starts to rise.

Last time it was this line.

'The US6.5m is just an early repayment, so presumabley the other terms will be unchanged, in my opinion, so a discount to the waited market average price'.

He is a textbook fake poster whose only interest is talking down the company at low points.

Very interesting all those who have turned up today with their innocent queries.

It's so pathetically transparent.

Honestly if all you care about is BMN's profits this year then you really have missed the entire point of what is unfolding and why.

Calamari has a long history of trolling BMN at times like this and across LSE is well known for being a low life. Best filtered.

I don't know Beginerman, you have tried that and it hasn't put the share price up.

Have you ever thought about investigating the roundness of the earth?

Current forecasts include CapEx on Vanchem. They aren't a reflection of what the actual P&L from sales will be. DYOR.

Also, the board is regularly full of negative posts. This is like the guys who cry about cancel culture and being silenced via their platforms in major national newspapers.

Thanks Madashat. Rings true today. Again.

Remember this is deliberately to grind people down.

Sorry Tones, missed your post whilst digging back up the Revego info. Anyway - adds the relevant context that makes this more meaningful!

Remember Investec are also involved in backing the upcoming JSE listing of the new Revego green fund targeting a R1.9bn IPO by April.

And there's Fortune front and centre.

Seems very probable the fund will back Bushveld. So could lead to some big buying in the new financial year.

This paragraph also jumped out of a link at the end. Regarding the power of P&D's and fake accounts.

'...it means that instead of capital flowing to say, a state-of-the-art electric battery company, it goes instead to a pump-and-dump scam. The owner of the scam unloads his position onto unwary investors, and buys a new boat.'

Certainly sounds like a company that should be valued only 45% lower than us doesn't it?

This situation really is AIM at its worst. Mis-pricing both companies to a point of absurdity that undermines the real fundamentals and realities of both companies. I do feel for Bushveld, FAR get an over-blown price from delivering very little and inflating a rather hollow story, and we get relentlessly penalised for anything and everything despite the genuine strategic masterclass that has got us here.

23x the assets and 30x the production with a workforce of hundreds, multiple processing locations and assets, a mine, multiple VRFB co investments, AfriTin and a licensed Mokopane.

I really am looking forward to Fortune reminding the market who the real big players are.

Great posts Alfa.

Cont.

We are expanding vigorously against the backdrop of covid to support everything we are doing and soon we will see why. The market is giving us less than no credit for this because it isn't public yet, but it will be and we will ultimately see the gains that come with that.

Fortune is a strategist and a risk manager. There will definitely be reasons why Comms are the way they are. The business isn't oblivious to sentiment or the fact that communications to the market have an impact. They also will know what their own share price is, where it has been and how far from those highs it is.

A lot hinges around the company getting VRFB over the line and adopted in SA - it opens many, many doors for the company for Belco, Enerox, localised minigrids and VIP investments. It is also pretty sensitive given the economic context - which has been exacerbated by covid and has also meant taking on legislation, Gwede Mantashe and his fetishisation of fossil fuels, Eskom and its woes as well as helping position the VRFB industry to be able to thrive with enough vanadium at a decent, stable price to allow it to grow. Alongside that, we have the broader setup of leasing contracts which stand to be a more global endeavour, VERL and projects such as the Pivot Power UK project which albeit quiet, if you recall had another 40+ projects beyond it. This is a huge amount to get over the line and it has to be done alongside growing the core business that pays for and supports it.

As frustrating as some of the recent ride has been - and I won't pretend otherwise, the reason most people are here is because they back Fortune to pull this off. I know I do. No doubt if covid hadn't hit, we would already know a lot more than we do.

It's definitely difficult to just keep your eyes on the end game sometimes. Particularly when other shares perform hugely better and part of the journey to get there is a two year decline in SP, that not many foresaw. On this score perhaps some of our more righteous posters should be slightly more humane to others who might let off steam occasionally in this regard. We have all been through the year of covid, and people are worn out and want to see us bouncing back. I think some could further do with remembering this is compounded for some of our investors by high averages, which at times they may also have had but not in a situation compounded by other factors as recent times has been. Even LTH's show their own frustrations when they are having a go at others for not posting exactly as they would wish or knowing everything they do.

That being said, people are still here. They are still buying shares and they still believe. Look at yesterday. It was brilliant to see that out-pouring of buying. What an endorsement of the business that was. If it was my business I would take much heart from days like yesterday. There's a lot of belief out there.

I don't plan on spending this weekend talking Bushveld but what I will say is trust Fortune. He will deliver and he won't be settling for a £200m business being shown up by FAR. Most of us know BMN is already a maturing beast of a company worth way more. Personally I believe the company are being more aggressive than most give them credit for.

Also if all bids were non-responsive it is more likely an issue with the tender itself than the bidders.

Perhaps if we had suggested VRFB's aboard a ship of some sort...
