Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Blimey, Six, I have so much respect for you posting what you have but I've got to say, you situation, then and now is like looking in the mirror.
You mention this all opening the flood gates again on this and you're right, I too am feeling the anger and frustration coming back. When I first spoke to Gordon it was the hardest thing I've done for a long while, taking that decision to reopen the can of worms. So hard as it was, whilst I was speaking with Gordon for the first time, I was overcome with anxiety. My heart was racing, sweating profusely and felt a total body fatigue. At one stage I was, from out of nowhere, overcome with emotion and found it difficult to speak. The rest is history.
The only thing that spurred me on was in wanting justice for us little people. You know you see all these sorts on TV with their noses in the trough and yet folks like us work 40 years or more and get spat out and crushed if we dare step out and try and earn a little more for ourselves with our hard earned.
Well, I said 'no more' will I stand by and take it. I stumbled across mu's post and thought, this is our one and only chance to.try and get justice.....so I took action, as hard as it was.
Finally, I mentioned this a while back, as damage as we are from all this, if you can find it in you to back Gordon, see it as 'therapy'. A final fight with the last once of fight you have left in you. There are no guarantees here but one thing we can do is try.

The list of 'points of reference' are a plenty.
To name but a few:
Companies House
Rns's
Emails
Complaints to FCA
Bulletin Boards
Audit Trails.
Bank accounts
The list goes on. Anyone who doesn't think we have a good fighting chance here is mistaken.
NOW is the time to join the cause.
*Naive!
No it's not right Sean. In my native, early days here I thought posts like that were genuine lol. See it for what it is now as this company is almost a corpse. Smacks of boiler room tactics imo.
Lol. Takes me back to when shares were issued like confetti. Landau and co. were great at issuing shares lolol
There went many rns's that came out without a dilution tag line....remember it well lol
10.2 BILLION SHARES IN ISSUE....no less.
AIM needs to compulsory delisting crap like this that don't meet certain criteria. This is where current legislation fails to protect folks like us imo
...obviously its suspended atm!!
Strong. I agree. How bizarre is it that this bombed out pos can still be trading even?!?....I said a long while back, this company should have 'euthanased' years back. Why is it that's it's still trading??.....think about it folks.......
Night...fab!.....if only others would stand up and be counted!....
Would it be possible to let everyone know how easy it was to do please and what sort of response you got from Gordon??
Tia.
mufcm - I think you might just be right about that. Hopefully, there will be a few more people between now and then who realise it's the right way forward and that they have nothing to lose??
Here are the details again to make it easy for folks:

If you need a reason to take action, here's just one of many courtesy of The Baron who recently posted on ii:
I just want to say it takes great courage to do what you are doing and saying to others in respect with getting in contact with Gordon Bowden. The more people who go through this process with you the better the chances that some sort of justice will prevail. You may not get your all your money back but you may end up changing the way the regulators act on companies like RRL. Things need to change, the whole system is morally bankrupt.
ALL....
For the absolute record and I did mention this in my very first post.
Gordon Is NOT asking for any fees or payment for his services. He did however say that he would welcome any VOLUNTARY donations as and when people feel it is appropriate or justified.
I for one do not have a problem with that. IF I ever see any of my money back I would be more than willing to make a donation as I would think many others would too??
Just clearing this up so there can be no misunderstanding.
Hi mufcm. you've dine great job in bringing this to peoples attention. If you hadn't I would be rallying folks like I am. Why?...because I believe we have a chance, A SERIOUS CHANCE of a result in our favour.
I hear you and that's what prompted me to get the word out there. Speaking with Gordon things are looking pretty decent but PLEASE, anyone at all who is sitting on the fence...DO THE RIGHT THING......CALL OR EMAIL GORDON. WE NEED YOU!..You will not be disappointed in any way and your action will make such a difference. Even if you don't think we have a chance, just give it the benefit of doubt....YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE!?!?
You never know, the result of OUR ACTION might just pave the way to radical reform and legislation to stop what happened to us ever happening again???
Sean, Hi. 'Bravery', not sure about that lol. Most of the time I'm a nervous wreck thinking about all this stuff again tbh. I'm trying to look upon it as 'closure' or ;therapy' even lol
I note your comments with interest and thank you for you best wishes. I'd love you to join us if you haven't already done so?
Atb
Hi Forgetit....many thanks to you too. That's the biggest 'first step' any of us can make imo. It's that old saying 'together we stand, divided we fall'.....or something along those lines lol.
WE NEED AS MANY FOLKS ON BOARD HERE AS WE CAN. I cannot understate the importance of numbers here. The bigger the number of people involved the louder the noise!
What ever the sums involved, I'd rather donate my money to charity than see it go they way it went tbh.
My funds too were destined for the mortgage. Ironically, they were only meant to be 'deposited' for a max of 12 months before down paying my debts.... the rest is history. Again, I'll reiterate that it was my choice to invest etc. but the issue was what sort of 'organisation' was I investing in?? Millions upon millions of dollars raised and what did we see in return lol???. Billions of shares issued and constant dilution...where did that get us?? Millions paid in admin fees...what was that all about??....and the list goes on. I'm not easily fleeced believe you me, however, being new to AIM, I took the information released by the company as a good indication of what the company had planned. Little did I know what was to follow.
Anyhow, as you can appreciate there are limits to what can be said on a BB so not much I can add really other than I can accept losses but find it difficult to accept how they came about?? I'll leave the rest to Gordon and his sterling
work. I'm guessing it really will be an eye opener. I'll be interested to hear if there any links to some of the old time regular posters!......not to mention RUM's activities.
IMO, AIM should be completely overhauled to offer some protection against things like this happening. It is literally littered with companies like Range and RMP and it always seems to be people like us that pay the price....strange that hey??
Thank you for your kind offer of help in assisting the cause btw. That question may be better directed at Gordon?. The only thing I would ask is that if you can think of any other way of making people affected, aware of what is being planned, it would be appreciated. Tbh, I think probably most folks who want to 'join in' may have done so by now, if not, then please just give it one more thought. If I can do it, so can anyone??
Anyway, theses are only my thoughts so far and not fact or opinion so I'll leave you all to make your own decisions.

*who is linked to what
....oh, and just think about this. Every single action of a company and its BOD's has an audit trail. Every single dollar raised and spent has an audit trail. Think about it. Nothing is beyond scrutiny. Minutes of meetings. Recorded interviews. Bank statements......not to mention Companies House. Take a look at Gordon's website and some of the forensic work he has done and who is lo to what.
I tell you guys, I'm expecting total fireworks. Theres no telling where this could end. If the FCA have turned a blind eye to stuff they shouldn't have then you can perhaps guess where that leaves us?..
Anyway, hopefully you get the gist of where this could be heading. Gordon is an absolute expert in his field with the tenacity and integrity to see this through.
As I've said, if he can see this through we are privileged to have his skills at our disposal. The very least we can do is support him in any way we can. Think about it.
