cheers for the heads up - will pick the presentation and report apart tonight.

"The ongoing dispute between Sylvania and Aquarius Platinum SA (Pty) Limited regarding Sylvania’s submission of an application for a Mining Right over Mineral Area 2 of the farm Vygenhoek (Everest North) in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa looks set to be settled, via an out of court commercial agreement that will benefit both parties. Internally, the environmental impact assessment is being concluded in anticipation of a settlement." the only thorn on the side(for me) appears to be moving towards a happy ending.

"Sylvania Resources Limited (ASX:SLV) has entered into an Share Exchange Agreement to increase its interest in Sylvania Metals Limited, which operates the Sylvania Dump Operations ("SDO"). Upon the completion of the Agreement, Sylvania Resources Limited will have 100% ownership of SDO. The SDO operates five platinum plants in South Africa, which have all been constructed and are in various stages of operation." http://abnnewswire.net/press/en/63838/Australian_Market_Report_of_September_29_2010:_Lynas_Corporation_(ASX:LYC)_Signed_Rare_Earths_Supply_Agreement_With_Japan.html

at around the 315p to 320p price range but it looks like i may have missed the boat - just saw the rise today. i think the MMs are raising the bid price to fill up another one of CSR's buyback orders?

well that takes away shareholder uncertainty for the moment! i hope USD$14m funding is enough. since dilution is less likely now, perhaps i may dip a toe in RHEP again in the coming future.

yes, i believe a lot of investors are waiting for 20th october news from HM treasury. but some bad news released recently... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/journalists/rowena-mason/8007396/Pursuit-Dynamics-enters-nuclear-decommissioning.html pursuit dynamics has acquired a 60% stake in a partnership(with National Nuclear Laboratory) that will retire current stations and take on new projects. this is bad news for pioneers RHL since they are a nuclear decommissioning specialist - although worldwide opportunities still exist. but i do wonder the reasons behind backing PDX instead of RHL - political or purely innovation?

no news? i believe the share is adjusting for the recent dividend announcement. corbine, good to see u still here. i sold out after the hike to 9p, then saw the drop to 6p. i guess i should've bought in then, but missed it this time around because i was concentrating on research for another share i bought called IQE. like ur conviction here, i am convicted there. anyway, out of curiosity, why did u pick TXR and not KMR?

scratching my head to find the reason for this lift. have been searching everywhere but cannot find anything concrete. but will stay until (maybe) momentum dies out. almost 50% up for me.

here's something more recent speculation of a possible buyout :- http://www.miningmx.com/special_reports/mining-yearbook/2010/Jockeying-for-position.htm "Pallinghurst chairman Brian Gilbertson has made it abundantly clear subsidiary Platmin is looking at acquisitions in its neck of the woods near Rustenburg, while speculation continues to swirl around the future of junior operators such as Eastern Platinum (Eastplats) and Sylvania Resources (Sylvania)." sometimes there is some truth to takeover speculation, no matter how old it is! as long as there are great fundamental reasons, the threat of being taken over will always be there. it's just a matter of chucking some money in here, praying nothing unexpected happens and being patient. =)

agree - that is only the speculative "extra". i always take speculative takeovers as an extra benefit of being in a share. the fundamentals are the most important reasons to buy a share, imo...and abudhabitrader has outlined news to come. tailings in Lannex should be completed by 1st november by which time production will be ramped up to 70,000 tonnes a month. and platinum price forecast has been raised :- http://www.commodityonline.com/news/Platinum-price-forecast-for-2010-hiked-20238-3-1.html perfect timing. so as with IQE, whose fundamentals are healthy and growth projection unbelievable, being taken over by intel or apple is just an "extra".

i understand the rise now, mainly due to publicity, in my opinion... http://www.investorschronicle.co.uk/Tips/Buy/MiniTips/article/20100903/20e722d6-b685-11df-ac4f-00144f2af8e8/Curates-egg-from-Rheochem.jsp but on a closer look, rheochem needs money for athena. if they sell that stake to ithaca energy and concentrate on their core business of drilling fluids, i think it would be better for rheochem in the long term. but if they pursue their stake in athena, a possible rights issue is in the making within the next one year as they have not ruled that out. could be a bank loan too, of course. suprisingly, no mention of that risk from investors chronicle. perhaps they have a stake in rheochem too...lol.

"Keep an eye on Sylvania Resources, 2.5p better at 66p. Word is the fast-growing platinum metals producer located in South Africa's Bushveld complex has attracted the attention of one of the industry's giants. Indeed, word is Impala, the world's secondlargest platinum producer, has tabled a bid approach north of £1-a-share and confirmation will come shortly. Sylvania's year's high was 87.4p.

http://www.investegate.co.uk/article.aspx?id=201009090700063830S&fe=1 still happy i sold out when it was 265p. well, on to the next update then...

ok mate - good to know. =) i found some deeper information about IQE from an angle i previously didn't pay much attention to. i believe none of the brokers observing IQE has taken note of it or realise the potential as they are mostly measuring IQE based on the smartphone growth market. anyway, it is one to hold. good luck!

still in this share? TSW have released a half yearly report. i've been out for a while though. http://www.investegate.co.uk/Article.aspx?id=201009060700051671S out of curiosity, did anybody here buy IQE?

my disappointment is the fact that UK being the next boom for solar panels was not mentioned in their latest report. i know sharp is a customer of PVCS and sharp was very bullish. but why the silence from PVCS? i started wondering if they have lost sharp? perhaps not, because installations are meant to be above market expectations in their next update. until then, i will stand aside and perhaps buy in again later this year. PVCS is still very much on my watchlist. on another note, try join me on the board at IQE. i'm trying to find out negative aspects about that company to which i have found none to date!

erm...forgive me for this ramping(but with evidence & research) - i just thought u may want to check out a company that i'm sure will boom in the next one year. i would appreciate it also if you could assist in stuff u can dig out about that company, especially anything negative that should be a cause for concern. that company is IQE. see u on that board, if u decide to join.

just to add, my suggestion of when to sell is too late for some people. for me, depending on the play - whether long or short. short, i target 20%. long, i topslice if it spikes, let it ride if it climbs gradually and sell if it falls gradually(go with the trend). what's important is NO REGRETS after selling. a profit is a profit! =)

results out on 6th september, don't forget.

good that u held on! i reckon when a downtrend gains momentum. u can check this using closing figures(not intraday share price fluctuations because MMs use this trick to scare daytraders into selling). anyway, TSW isn't a daytrading share so it should be ok. once u have decided to sell, plonk them into SLV or IQE....haha! kidding mate - up to you, dyor, don't blame me if it all goes t*ts up and all that...LOL. floosy, don't know if u read the last few pages but i was sundancer previously.
