As my headmaster used to write on my school reports back in the 1960's, "Agreed"! A good post rosso, thanks!

Maybe I'm missing something here, but, IMHO, it's becoming more and more clear to me, that an increasing number of posters on this forum have made little, or no research, whatsoever, into Greatland Gold, with regards the past, and where we're now going in the future. It's increasingly evident that their posts require some form of challenge from others, that are patient, and actually take the time to explain. Many thanks to them for their time, in, let's face it, an increasingly, 'Me, me, me, I don't care about anyone else' society, that we live in today!

Friday rant over, but that's how I see it today...GLA & DYOR (Yes, at least some!) TT

@ Redtrader

With respect I think you're completely missing where Greatland Gold, as a company, is now going, and you possibly need to do some more research yourself, which should give you a better idea of why we need, at least one, if not more, mining engineers, and possibly others in related fields.

The CEO, Shaun Day, was quite clear recently, when he stated, "We have a wonderful team and that's so important to making the successful transition from explorer to underground Australian Gold Miner".

"And again, what we're very much focusing on is building up the team as we transition into production"..."We're building up a mining engineering capacity..."

That should, at least, give you an indication of why. TT

IMHO, it's essential we have a mining engineer who understands what's happening at our mine! Why wouldn't we want one? TT

@ Lenz "Has everyone got a web site stutter this morning ;-))"

I've had some issues with posts being delayed, so re-posted, as you can see above.

Yes, it's clearly the Havieron MRE figure that he's referring to.

You're right Lenz. Some confusion thinking that he was referring to the actual gold figure. The Havieron MRE totaled 52 million tonnes grading 2.0 grams per metric tonne of gold and 0.31% copper for 3.4 million ounces of gold and 160,000 tonnes of copper.

You're right Lenz. Some confusion as I thought they meany actual gold, whereas he's referring to the Havieron MRE which totaled 52 million tonnes grading 2.0 grams per metric tonne of gold and 0.31% copper for 3.4 million ounces of gold and 160,000 tonnes of copper.

Just noticed! The truth is out! ;-)That's one big elephant! TT

St George Mining has opened up exploration on a second front and is now hunting giant copper deposits in one of WA’s most enigmatic mineral terranes – the Paterson province, home to a number of elephant sized mineral deposits. The company’s maiden drill program over its extensive tenure in the region has jagged copper sulphides in several drill holes triggering a move to deeper diamond drilling...

...The Paterson province lies immediately to the east of the famed Pilbara Craton and remains a richly endowed but poorly explored terrane due to the underlying geology being hidden by the sands of Great Sandy Desert. Despite this, the region has a reputation as being true “elephant country” having produced Newcrest’s massive Telfer gold mine, AIM-listed Greatland Gold’s 52 million tonne Havieron gold deposit and Rio Tinto’s recent Winu copper discovery...

With the Telfer news spreading today maybe we'll see a bit more action tomorrow? Who knows?!

Thanks hydrogen. As we all know, posters on this forum give the Havieron prospect 'ticks', and have done for some time now. Let's be quite straight here, IMHO, this is one of the biggest ticks to date! TT

But Havieron and other discoveries in the nearby Paterson Province of Western Australia look set to transform Telfer’s future, with the existing infrastructure at Telfer now shaping as the logical place to process the gold and copper prospects being uncovered in Telfer’s hinterland...

...RBC analyst Kaan Peker said investors should not view the cutback in isolation given the potential of Havieron was a key aspect of the investment.

“The capital being spent on the cutback at Telfer is significant given mine life, but we believe this opens up long-term optionality with Havieron and potential mine-life extension for West Dome. The announcement today flags NCM’s confidence in Havieron,” he said...

As Barry Fitzgerald stated recently, "Telfer actually enjoyed an all-in sustaining margin of $US257/oz in the December quarter which was novel in itself. That was from ore (gold) grading all of 0.81 g/t (NOW 0.87g/t) and 0.15% copper (NOW 0.13 g/t). Throw in some 5-10g/t gold and 0.5% copper with that lot and Telfer would once again be humming."

Yet again, another clear reason why Fraser MacCorquodale 100% majored on Havieron in his presentation at Diggers & Dealers! This is clearly another massive tick in the box for Havieron going into production. No other growth projects got more than a glancing reference. I can't remember the likes of Wafi-Golpu being mentioned once! I've said why, for some considerable time now and Havieron MUST be brought into production urgently! TT

An approximate translation..."Guy's, we need Havieron, FAST! Is there any way we can go even FASTER, despite the break neck speed that we're already working at to get it into production!"

@ plode

Since when was the GGP sp based primarily on the price of gold? As I said earlier, naive, or not, what if we have a massive find at the likes of Goliath, or another tenement, what has a chartist told me, exactly, prior to that find, which would undoubtedly, significantly raise the sp?

Hello Peter, may I suggest you read the earlier posts to understand where we are going. TT

@ plode "It’s in the charts that we are going lower, nothing to do with buys or sells every day, once we have fully retraced we can then move based on news negative or positive".

This reminds me of the old lady in a small tent at local fairs & circuses, who told you what your future was, based on your palm.

Well, as a 60+ year old investment codger, who has never believed, whatsoever, in chartists, especially on AIM shares, that's complete nonsense, IMHO!

Just one small example...Say we hit a massive gold assay result at Goliath next week, exactly what has the chartist told me today?
