Unusually, PREM trades are appearing on the CNBC ticker this morning.

Radika - I believe that we've had a commitment from GR to publish the on-site results. Of course, there are samples being sent to a lab in Germany, I understand, and the validated results are required for DFS purposes. However, GR has certainly set expectations that the market would hear of the on-site results and "imminently"!! If the "imminent" results are validated then all the better!
A significant point, not to be lost, is that GR needs good results to get the sp motoring and to have future fundraising at a lower cost to shareholders... the earlier that we have them, the better!

Well I'd like to think that there's a positive reason for the delay in the "imminent" test results, rather than simple incompetence. I added more on the strength of last week's video and that word "imminent",,,, could it be Monday morning?

Looks like a leak!

Agreed Snowking.... tipping point is almost here... still a major question mark over GR though... really hoping that the next RNS is overwhelmingly positive... I think it will!

Chuggley - what I'm wondering is why you think a remote possibility of tomorrow or that Monday or Tuesday is more likely.
Is this purely random speculation or are you getting whispers from somewhere? I seem to associate you with Snowking and the infamous group of 65!
Have to say that I thought along with the half year report and the updates previous to this that GR had finally changed his ways and that when he said imminent, he meant imminent... happy to allow for that meaning this week but it now seems that he's on the slippery slope backwards.

Chuggley - I guess that the potential investor, seeing the negative and positive views, can then decide based on that, if they're inclined to. And who knows. it might be a good decision not to invest. I get the sense that you think that the only comments that should be posted are positive comments... simply don't agree.

The worst contributors to this board are the ones who believe that opinions here actually influence others to take action... it's those who accuse of others of ramping or de-ramping or they use that loaded phrase "genuine" long term holders. Have to admit that I particularly dislike those who are unrealistically positive and we've had some of those characters in the past... currently, I'd say the board is fairly balanced (except for misstestes!).

And if you're someone who does buy or sell because of comments on this board then more fool you.... DYOR.

Interesting thought Bick but I would have thought that he knows that delivery of good test results and an acceleration of the DFS will increase the sp and therefore give him more money to spend on other stuff, if, indeed you think he's simply out to fund his curiosity! After all, the headroom is in shares and not a £ value.

Ironically, Acker, he won't have been spending what he had planned to on testing but there will be a fundraise due later this month... it should be of no surprise to anyone!

I agree Snowking... I'd suggest that the lithium play is strong for the next decade at least. Whilst there are potential alternatives, none of them appear to be sufficiently advanced. Acker is right to say that battery makers, etc will need to make a call about what they will do and commit to but part of their thinking will include whether they can get more mileage out of lithium. I suspect that currently there is just as much effort or more going into advances in lithium-based batteries than there is into alternatives. The point remains that the likes of the car makers and battery makers need to secure lithium to enable them to service the looming explosion in EV's... plus as we try and move away from fossil fuels, there is also the potential for domestic "batteries" to be part of the solution.

Results are that good that they need to double and triple-check them.... here's hoping!

I know Acker... I've consciously decided not to repeat GR's failings (of which there are many) for the time being. My hope is that we see good test results and that we end up with a stonking DFS. I do think that if the sp was (much?) higher, we might see GR use some funds to get more drills onsite, build a good team and to step aside.

Note to self - send GR a dictionary for Christmas with the word "imminent" highlighted!

If you're going to respond with any credibility misstestes, please don't misquote me... I didn't say a "few" days... and for clarification, I do mean today or tomorrow... might be this week but I'm not going to be upset if it is later this week.

I think everyone should be expecting a placing this month but I reckon we'll get the test results (with caveats on being independently inspected, etc) "imminently"... hours or days away. GR should hold back on the placing for as long as possible to allow the test result news to have its effect on the sp.

Happy to admit if I'm wrong but with good news, I expect the sp to settle above 0.4, maybe even above 0.5... the sp will certainly spike (well above that range) but this time round, we're building on some foundations.

Acker - definitely agree that we should have been at this point much sooner and also that all 3 drills should be in operation by now and that more drills should be on site to recover some of the time lost.
Having said that, the tipping point is almost on us and I'm pretty sure that GR plans to publish the results from the on-site testing facility with the caveat that they need to be independently verified... if not this afternoon, GR should be pulling out all the stops to publish the results that they have at open on Monday morning.
All the signals are good and I'm expecting positive results.
Of course, the market still doesn't trust GR - he's got an opportunity to recover some trust by delivering good test results but also to set out how the remainder of the DFS is going to be executed... I hope we'll get something on that this month.
BTW, I'm not holding my breath for anything positive on Circum!

In all the years, I don't think that I've ever added after a video by GR but I have this morning!

Do I get some sort of prize, IQ?

Snowking - might we be getting the test result RNS before the interview?
