Ccc, what we can see is that there have still been 3 site visits, the same as 3 months ago
And if there is a possible us interested party that means we are still in phase 1.
888, the reasons for sale are in the rns just before mellons very expensive 2 month loan that included interest and 3:1 at 15 p. They are not my words so if you want to use de ramp hyperbole you should direct them at Mellon . I think it would make sense to call someone who only a couple of years ago was predicting 100 k oz production for last year and 150 k oz production , a RAMPER ! Yes our incredible non dom chairman .
Calibre and aris are not comparable. I am also in Shg that was approached by 3 buyers. Still not comparable but a m cap of around £120m last time I looked. Soon to be production of 100 k oz and a very good growing high grade resource in Kenya that will soon be larger than Cnr. Yes it would sell at a premium but probably not any more than some here hope for Cnr. The obvious question remains. Why reduce mc incentive level to 40 p???
What is still very unclear is in the case of an asset sale, how many costs and how much is likely to be returned to shareholders?
As far as further resources , calibre paid $100 m for b2 d assets including 2 working mills with further exploration potential . Cnr could have chased the same deal but calibre had far more credibility with the new Newmarket management. Some here called it a bad deal and some said it wouldn’t complete lol. Nobody is going to pay much of a premium for unproven gold , it will however be an added bonus for the buyers.
