RE: SP at its lowest ever 2.61 on Google!30 Sep 2022 21:32
Quite, nothing in it for the Junta to have Toral mothballed. The SP is dreadful but it doesn't tell the whole story. I believe we're where we are because there is no evidence (other than the third CDTI tranche) of any funding and history tells us to expect a discounted placing. On the flip side of the coin the field work has been consistently good, Toral is de-risked on multiple fronts and the Spanish office believe we have a mine. For me this comes down to if you believe a transaction on Toral is possible whether JV, partial sale, earn in etc / still believe that regional EU money could come our way or if you don't, in which case we will place at a ludicrous price or face insolvency. Personally I think Toral is advanced enough despite being shy of a PFS for one of the former to be possible, if I didn't I'd have given up and would rescue my diminished investment.
