I think you should stick with footsie 100. That is my final word.

snipVW
You have no idea about the people on here and you have no right to make the comments you do. This is a good board where we agree or disagree without getting personal. I suggest you find another board where you can find someone to argue with just to please you. I for one will not reply to your nonsense further. When you have held these for the length of time I have and invested the sort of money I have, maybe you will adjust/refrain from your blind unwanted and unjustified references. May I also suggest that if you have a problem with the way the company is run, you contact the company and explain to them what your problem is. I'm sure they will be more than happy to listen and explain their strategy to you.

They are concentrating on the sector that is giving them the higher margins.

SnipVW, catwith9lives has covered pretty well everything. There was more than enough positive info coming out of the company, along with the Paul Harrison video (https://vimeo.com/427963339/dcc3b0dc0b) to convince me that we were at the start of something very big. As far as "being in the know", I don't believe I have ever given that impression.
I remain of the view that all will come right. There is nothing wrong in questioning your own views though.
snipVW, I mean in the nicest way, do remember that we are all entitled to our own views without having to prove them. ATVB

SnipvW, I have not changed my opinion overall. However, with the lack of sales you start to look for reasons as to why we are where we are. What was a 90% positive view before, is probably only 70% now.
Based on what we knew by the end of August, I was convinced we were going to be flooded with orders and have a share price over 50p. They have not delivered and it is only right to look into and question why?

And they manufacture plant in Italy!

I do raise the question how effective it is to run a company with:
Reg Office - Farm St, London
Chairman - Lord Willets, Based in London
CEO - Rob Richards, Based in Singapore
NED - Gavin Mahew, Based in Saudi Arabia
Commission only Sales people - World wide but with no control

Cat, you are right regarding the sales people. Commission only leaves you with very little control over them.
I still believe we will hear good things from Paragraph as we are not looking for them to invent anything, simply commercialise something that they have already proven (I'm not suggesting it is simple, as it isn't, but that it is just another stage in the process).
Logic says there have to be lots of orders on the cards, if not, why not?

All ready up 10% on there today

We have a a very different feel yesterday and this morning.

Two possibilities, either the seller has finished or Paragraf has commercialised it

The right people are seeing us.

British Embassy Bangkok hosted the screening of Sir David Attenborough’s latest documentary ‘A Life on Our Planet’

In the post-event online survey, the crowd was asked ‘Which policy should governments focus on to solve Climate Change?” Interestingly, “Energy Efficiency” is the most mentioned key word followed by “Improving Public Transport”.

The results reflect the fact that ‘Energy’ and ‘Transport’ are two things people experience in their daily lives and felt it would make a significant impact if technology was utilised to ensure these areas of urban living are environmentally friendly.

Through partnership with the UK’s Department for International Trade, 5 British companies have showcased their technologies at the event including:

Flexible and Lightweight Solar Panels from Verditek Solar. The panels are installed on the roof of the Electric Vehicle Association of Thailand’s (EVAT) Electric Tuktuk. Its lightweight advantages allow for installation in places conventional solar panels cannot be fitted, for example, on public transport, low load bearing roofs, boats, cars, lorries and movable temporary solar power generation

mbingo, most of what you say is very correct. However, why do you say they have limited resources? They recently raised £3.5m, paid off a debt of £600k and are working hard towards a break even position. Whilst the SAF contract delay will make that harder, I still believe they will make it. Hopefully positive news on Paragraf soon.

Well, that was not what I had anticipated. However, life is life and at least it is a delay and not a cancellation.
The important thing is what comes now. Any good news via orders or Paragraf update and SAF will become instant history.
I see the constant 50,000 seller is still here. I would love to know how much longer it will take to clear.
Still very confident and comfortable with my holding.

We would moan if they kept it quiet and never said anything. We should at least applaud them for being up front about the delay.

Obviously not. Plenty of buys but we still have that consistent seller

Here come the buys, Leak??

Yes it will only be on a monthly basis. Not for the whole year.

If we are going to get an update before year end (I'm not convinced but lets hope so), I am hoping it will tell us:
1. The current position with Paragraf and how close we are to commercial production. I'm sure I've seen somewhere that it is a 50/50 development and rights.
2. That we are now at breakeven. I'm pretty convinced that they will have got there through their smaller deals/agents. (someone once told me "just because it isn't RNS'd it doesn't mean it hasn't happened"
3. Where we are with the larger deals.
4. Obviously the direction they are going with sales.

Feeks, we currently have no evidence that this is the case. Just feels logical to me, but could be way off.
I'm pretty confident that they will be breakeven by year end as that was a main stay that they were working on.

Are these the people who are doing the commissioning work for Black tulip or are they another South American agent

Saracen Pro S.A.

Whilst Team 1 wait to get operations underway at #BTMSA gold processing plant they managed yesterday to finally complete the construction of the workers accommodation block and have started preparing the property for the forth coming rains.

When the time comes we hope to install high tech flexible lightweight solar panels supplied by UK AIM listed #Verditec VDTK.L whom Saracen now has a collaboration agreement with to the roof of the accommodation block saving valuable space and will significantly reduce energy costs once the plant increases capacity over time, thus removing the need for noisy polluting generators. Combine that with the introduction of cleaner leaching technology and reagents BTMSA will for sure be a leader in the drive to clean up the industry.
