El Abra Exploration Target Category Cutoff Tonnes (thousand) Gold (g/t) Lower value 2 g/t Au 50 11.7 Upper value 5 g/t Au 40 14.0

so, Craig is talking about 1/2 half an ounce to a 1 ounce per ton, that's 15-30 grams per tonn! for the starters 60k to 100k ounces in Victoria, Australia. Works out about 1,2 billionn USD! Let's be conservative and say 60k ounnces in the ground and only 0.5 ounnce per tonn that's in today's moneys if gold is 1,200 USD per ounce, so about USD 700 - 800 million in the ground? And if GGP Greatland Gold is saying they have good grades of up to only 2 grams per ton, then if ECR manages to get out say 15 grams half an ounce, then ECR market cap of 1.4 million is too low commpared to other similar companies? Chairman's Interview: on strong footing, focus on gold project in Australia Watch TIP TV's interview with ECR's Chairman, Bill Howell, at London Mines & Money 2016 at: http://bit.ly/2hYsagi

If GGP can do 10 bags with only up to 2 grams per ton 0.05 to 0.49! then ECR - historical Victoria drills are round 30-50 grams per ton!!! Plus 66m tax rebates? ECR 20 BAGS commpany in the making. Could be Philippines assets sale too?

Financial Summary · Net trading revenue(1) up 14% at £244.9 million · Operating expenses up 23%, with significant investment in effective marketing · Profit before tax up 6.7% to £105.2 million · Diluted EPS up 7.8% at 22.55 pence · £93.9 million of own funds(2) generated from operations, up 7.7% · Interim dividend of 9.42 pence per share, in line with dividend policy

However, it is likely that continued studies in relation to the reprocessing of historical mine dumps at the Avoca project will be an immediate priority, given the possibility that such an operation would be capable of generating revenue in the relatively near term and with relatively low capital costs. MGA is expected to have a significant economic advantage in such an activity, on the basis of its estimated tax losses of approximately AUD 66M as at 30 June 2015, which may be available, subject to certain conditions (as described in ECR’s announcement of 4 December 2014), to reduce MGA’s future taxable profits. http://www.ecrminerals.com/projects-investments/mercator-gold-australia ECR is a mineral exploration and development company. ECR’s wholly owned Australian subsidiary Mercator Gold Australia has acquired 100% ownership of the Avoca and Bailieston gold projects in Victoria, Australia. ECR has earned a 25% interest in the Danglay epithermal gold project, an advanced exploration project located in a prolific gold and copper mining district in the north of the Philippines. An NI43-101 technical report was completed in respect of the Danglay project in December 2015, and is available for download from ECR’s website. ECR’s wholly owned subsidiary Ochre Mining has a 100% interest in the SLM gold project in La Rioja, Argentina. Exploration at SLM has focused on identifying small tonnage mesothermal gold deposits which may be suitable for relatively near term production.

These are all buys not sells, but recorded as sells. Above 1.05 are buys!

Yes huge tax rebates. This will do 10 bags, wait for the Victoria gold drill 30-50grams per ton and instantly to re-rate 15-20 mil market cap! Look at GGP with only cash 700k, only gold 3 grams per ton but market cap 8mil!?

Yes huge tax rebates. This will do 10 bags, wait for the Victoria gold drill 30-50grams per ton and instantly to re-rate 20-40mil market cap!

South African cousin going down -20%. Gold is also not holding. Where this will be in Jan 2017?

Moving up, shares drying up. Market cap should be minimum £1.5-2.5 million compared to peers.

In summary, this settlement will provide StratMin with an immediate £3.2mm payment in cash!

Burned fingers with this one, but at least Dividends have been paid. Every little helps, now to sell or wait for RI?

Avocet Mining PLC (LON:AVM) was one of the biggest losers on Wednesday morning, dipping by 12% after it told investors that a recent legal dispute will drag on for another month and could force the business into insolvency. At the end of October, bailiffs working on behalf of former employees of the owner of the Inata gold mine in Burkina Faso – in which Avocet has a stake – seized around 1,400oz of the precious metal amid claims that a number of agreed benefits remain unpaid. Although a court agreed that elements of pay are due, it indicated that the shipment – valued at around US$3.4mln – should be returned immediately, which still hasn’t happened. Today’s news is that the court will defer its formal verdict on whether or not the gold should be released until 19 December. The mine’s owner, Société des Mines Bélahouro (SMB), has said that it won’t ship any more gold from the mine until it is certain that bailiffs won’t seize it again. Without SMB shipping out and selling the gold, or if no other third party funding could be secured, Avocet warned investors that it may have to enter an insolvency process which would likely leave little to no value left for shareholders. The West African-focused gold miner added it was hopeful that the shipents will resume soon, after which SMB will be able to start paying Avocet again.

Looks like this will be prepared for future if any takeover and could hit easily 270 see charts below link http://friscofastball.com/2016/11/07/is-selling-laird-plc-here-a-winning-strategy/

Looking at Technical Analysis Support1: 43.25 Support2: 35.98 Hope mid 40s level will hold. But rre we going to test 35 level?

read last paragraph in official recent RNS: highly unlikely that any value will remain for shareholders.

patience, dividends next week, also any sniff of Apple or any other interested parties for a bid / takeover, then boom.. this is at least 6-12 months investment if takeover could materialise, could be even sooner?

A prolonged cessation of operations may mean that the mine cannot be re-started without significant investment, if at all, and will likely have a material adverse effect on both SMB's and the Company's financial position. In particular, funding will likely be required to support the Company's head office operations ahead of the completion of the Tri-K transaction (as detailed below), which, subject, inter alia, to shareholder and regulatory approvals, will result in the receipt by the Company of an initial consideration of US$4.0m (approximately US$2.5m after costs). However, meetings are due to be held in Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso, in the coming days between representatives of the mine, its workforce, and government officials to try to find a resolution to the situation and to avoid a prolonged cessation. If funding is required before completion of the Tri-K transaction and such funding is not available from Inata or the Company is unable to secure alternative funding, the Company will likely enter an insolvency process in which circumstance it is highly unlikely that any value will remain for shareholders.

very good entry!
