Sorry, in fear of being accused of droning on, which I'd understand, please also look at the GGP BOD! IMHO, there is nothing better for us than GH! His experience in the mining industry, but ALSO the financial industry, is above the vast majority in the industry as a whole. What is that worth for us as shareholders? A great deal, IMHO!

Sorry for banging on, but it needs to be said, when you see some doubt being mentioned!

OK, that's my last word on it in this thread!

DYOR & GLA!

TBH, I honestly don't know, and, quite frankly, largely, don't care, about all the minutia of investing in GGP.

However, what I do know though, is that I've been hearing exactly the same comments on the likes of LSE, and other boards for years now. I've been reading them from sub 1p, but others have been invested well before me.

My personal investment strategy in GGP is now largely based of Havieron probably being one of the largest, quality motherlode's for at least 1-2 generations!

Do as you wish, but my 'cash', as a 60+ year old codger, is ALL IN!

GLA!

I don't know about SolGold as such, but I don't mind saying that I've invested a very small percentage of my GGP gains over the past couple of years in other Oz mining companies, but all in the Paterson region. No, I don't see any point in naming them as that's my way. GLA

All can say is, GO DEEP!!

More & more, IMHO, that's where the Havieron motherlode extends to, and, probably, other Paterson projects too!

Purely my opinion, but like GH, and others, there is a huge load down there, DEEP!

GLA & DYOR!

An interesting piece from 'The Sydney Morning Herald' interviewing Biswas earlier this month:

"Biswas, who has been at the helm of the $23 billion mining company since 2014, has recently been suggested as a potential candidate to take the top job at global miner Rio Tinto after its CEO resigned over the ill-fated decision to blow up an ancient and culturally significant Aboriginal rock shelter site earlier this year.

However, Biswas dismisses this as the usual "speculation" during high-profile CEO searches, saying he is very happy at Newcrest and has work to continue on the legacy he hopes to leave. One is continuously improving safety across the miner's operations. Another is to deliver on more of the company's growth phase. After turning the business around from its struggles in 2013 during lower gold prices and problems at Papua New Guinea's Lihir mine, Biswas believes his plan could position Newcrest for strong growth for decades to come.

"I'm working hard on it, we are all working hard on it at Newcrest," he says. "That would be a great legacy to leave.""

"It has been almost three months since Rio Tinto’s board bowed to the inevitable and announced the departure of chief executive Jean Sebastien Jacques, and the search for a replacement is about to come to a close.

It is understood the appointment of the next Rio chief executive is imminent. If a new Rio boss isn’t announced next week, then it will be soon after, with the board understood to be weighing the last few names left in the pot of hopefuls in the hope of making a decision by December 11, three months after Jacques’ departure was announced.

The shortlist is a closely kept secret between Rio’s nomination committee and London-based headhunters MWM Consulting, which led Rio’s search.

But industry sources suggest Newcrest Mining boss Sandeep Biswas is at the front of the pack, with other names still believed to be in contention including Anglo American finance chief Stephen Pearce, former Fortescue chief executive Nev Power, former BP CFO Brian Gilvary, and perhaps a handful of others...."

Biswas favourite for Rio top spot.

I still believe 27p+ today, but what do I know? As usual, only time will tell...

I agree! If 'they' are willing to push the GGP sp up 7-8% in one day, than, IMHO, it's worth more! :-)

Well, all I can say BOB, is, if that's what you really believe, just watch out for Blackadder! ;-)

I'm more than happy to be proved wrong, but, on the past & current rise of GGP, I'd seek shelter if I was you!

I agree DORE123! It's indeed a great team, and rare in any industry today! Sorry, I should have mentioned Callum too! TT

Here we go again...the next step up!

If there is nothing else i've learn't over the past few years is that, IMHO, there could NOT be any better CEO for Greatland Gold than Gervaise Heddle. His knowledge of the industry, and, just as important, his knowledge of the financial markets, is well above the that of most CEO's in the mining industry! Add to that his PR experience and there is nothing better!

If there would be anyone I'd trust to handle the coming months for Greatland Gold shareholders, it would be him!

This may all sound trite and over praising to some, but, do I care, NO! :-)

Agreed mm! TT

Can I just say, it's really good to see so many people in good spirits today!

What's more, well deserved by all who have been prepared to wait, as many of us have done for years!

TT

Some, maybe all of this (I doubt all, as FOMO would definitely be part, IMHO) could be pre- or actual fund buying. IF that's the case, then maybe 27p+ today? Purely a guesstimate, nothing more...GLA TT

If they stopped drilling at Scallywag around 1st November, as indicated by Paddy, then, if they are awaiting the full set of assays before release, which has made sense to me and many others for some time now, then there is no 'delay'. Assays have normally been around 4-6 weeks from deposit at the labs. HOWEVER, there are delays currently, due to demand.

As Alastair Clayton clearly stated earlier this week:

"It's just us and every other company that's complaining about waiting for their assays, but look, that's part of life, and you just have to manage it. We've been feeding the labs since early October and, while the sausage machine might be busy, and a bit slow at the moment, they are coming out the other end."

Indeed tiggerman! At this rate we shouldn't have too long to wait, hopefully. TT

Well, it started yesterday, it would appear, and is strengthening today...GLA!

It's not always the case, but often has been, that the GGP SP starts a move north in anticipation of the next Havieron drilling results.

However, December is going to be full of news, some definitely, some probably, but nevertheless it's going to be FULL! When in December is unknown for some items.

So, when does FOMO start this time?

It's only 4 days until December....

As those of you that can remember Stingray, "Anything can happen in the next half-hour"!
