I'm hopeful interest will build this week

Will be interesting to see how the Labour government are going to themselves out of the mess they have got themselves in.

£ at a low and the cost of government borrowing having spiked in recent days (potentially adding billions to the government’s spending bill)

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2025/jan/13/keir-starmer-says-treasury-will-be-ruthless-on-public-spending-cuts

The Treasury will be “ruthless” over public spending cuts to help meet the government’s fiscal rules

£21.7bn set aside for carbon capture & storage

£2.3bn on hydrogen projects

In a July 2021 report on fiscal risks, the Office for Budget Responsibility estimated a net cost of the UK reaching net zero by 2050 to be £321bn

Now tell me when Rachel Reeves announces what she is cutting, what you think is going to be cut first?

................past 3 months (21st Oct, 25th Nov and 23rd Dec). That's why I'm expecting a full update from blocks 1 & 2 extracting materials along the vein line. Should be a good amount of gold recovered I hope.

Looking forward to any end of month RNS.

It's coming up to 4 weeks (this Thursday) since the last Cambay update, so the end of the month will be 6 weeks since update.

I'm hopeful that within the last 6 weeks (with only minimal down time for Xmas / new year) that there will be an progress on the first 2 wells, an update in the 3rd one and plans for the 4th one announced.

The questions still remain over financial viability until first gas 2026/27.

The amount EPPs broker stated in their brokers note is,for me, eye watering

So we know that Final Investment Decision (whether this actually goes ahead or not) is not until the end of 2025, if they hit all their targets this year.

So it would appear they are just at the very start re: licence has just been awarded a project management company signed up.

Still a long way to go and the brokers note that disappeared from EPP X feed stated just how many millions this needs.

FID late 2025

First gas was it 2026?

Gas field 6+ years (EPP's own words)

So no Hydrogen until at least 2032 based on EPP's own dates

Ben Clube, CEO of EnergyPathways plc said:

"This winter's conditions highlight the importance of the need to increase the UK's natural gas and energy storage capacity to improve its energy security and to alleviate the impact of volatile global energy prices on UK household budgets."

Note in RNS Ben Cube doesn't mention hydrogen anymore in alleviating the impact of volatile global energy prices on UK household budgets??? Interesting?

....in the run up to the w/c 20th and any possible operational update RNS.

Let those that were happy with 20% rise out, new money will arrive I'm sure in the run up to any RNS w/c 20th Jan

"The focus on grade, ahead of volume, is key to maximising operating profits at the mine."

Yep, that suggests to me they're laser focused on following the vein and maybe a few cm each side of the vein, but not including random piles of rock

Remember "The underground mine continues to be prepared, and simultaneous production will be initiated in December 2024 from blocks one and two. "

So that is vein material being dug out of blocks one and two since December las year. All going tot the processor and the gold sold to reinvest.

Intetest is starting earlier than I thought but I knew it would arrive.

A month of digging out gold laden vein material, should be a great update.

Last operational update confirmed that the end-to-end process was in place.

The update I'm expecting 3rd week of January should hopefully tell us a lit more gold laden vein material went for processing. They increase production from here through 2025.

.....this week. Just tried again and it's NT to buy on £4500, yesterday it was £5k. So NT trigger point lowering.

Still think interest will ramp up next week before any RNS week commencing 20th January

We should be asking for an operational update at the end of January, around 6 weeks since the last update.

I was just thinking that SteveE, although not massive, nice to see them up around £2k buys each

.

I'm also expecting more vein material to get trucked to the processor from this month onwards.

Remember, only 10 tonnes of vein material went last time of the 42 tonnes shipped. "Boku has made its first mineral sale of a batch of 42.973 tonnes of ore, with 10 tonnes produced exclusively from the "Bonanza" vein in block one."

I'm expecting closer to 30 tonnes of vein material to go this month, also remember " the 10 tonnes from block 1 reached average grades of 63.6 g/t"

Last month was just an end to end test of the whole process - set it up, dig it out, truck it, process it and get the money back.

Now that it all working smoothly, the focus is not on setting up the process but getting the vein tonnage through the process.

I am feeling confident for the next update, could it be w/c 20th Jan? Time to take your seats at the table?

We have had operational updates monthly so far

21st Oct

25th Nov

23rd Dec

No reason not to expect one in 9 trading days time w/c 20th January.

Remember

Boku now believes that the gold oxidation zones could extend to up to 200m in depth, with a neighbouring ASM operation extending to over 150m vertically. Boku will continue to focus on exploiting high grades at a tonnage of between 1 to 3 tonnes per day as it brings the next blocks into production and increases production accordingly.

The mine development plan has been optimised for preparation of future multiple blocks, with each block averaging 20m long by 20m in height. The Company expects the optimised plan will both accelerate, and ultimately increase production. The revision means each block is estimated to contain 172t of vein material.

Looking ahead, Boku plans to increase again the number of shifts working at Bonanza from three to six, accelerating mine development and scaling production volumes, potentially achieving between 8t and 12t of vein material per day.

Simultaneous production will be initiated in December 2024 from blocks one and two.

I'm expecting a BIG UPDATE w/c 20th January. Is it time to take your seats at the table at this low price?

...circa 3 weeks until the next RNS update, but also hoping for X snippets over the next 3 weeks in run up to RNS.

Not worth all this bickering. What's it adding? Yeah, the sq root of F all.

End of January rns update I hope
