Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Carl's done a fantastic job.
Now we have the Holy Grail insight, an LFT.
WoW. Not one test method but TWO!!
These test assays will be fast, sensitive and specific.
Is this the "New Technology" mentioned in the Commons by Hanc ock on Monday 14th Dec?
Saturday was referenced!
OMG!!
Look at the market cap here!! £8M!!
Thus could be £500M worth if orders easy.
The recent £912M Tender fror announcement 17/12/20 was cancelled earlier in the week!
The planets are aligning, the Star of Bethlehem is aligning next week after 600 years and Carl's 2 tests will be amazing!!!
Carl's test - fast (tick), sensitive (tick), specific (tick)
Test, test, test
Hahaha, said it before but will say it again, tgats some crystal ball you have!
1.25p, ouch.
You mentioned cconcern of the Market cap here and that you are out.
Is £3.5M reasonable??
Would this get you back in??
Test, test, test
TonytFawcett, you need to see other posts on this BB. Provided tests are done on a regular basis (3 days?) then Harvard analysis was happy for 50% Sensitivity.
Test sensitivity is secondary to frequency and turnaround time for COVID-19 surveillance.

That's what sold the Innova LFT to the Government. Professor Deeks has now contested this.

I would argue its better to run a screening process!
However, I may question the 3 day time period between tests. However, if someone has a positive I assume tgey are tested daily. Nick Gibbs implied this to be the case!
The direction of travel must be a better test with better sensitivity. The Avacta's LFT.
The $64M question when is it available??
MHRA Guidelines
Acceptable Sens > 80%, Spec > 95%
Desired Sens > 97%, Spec > 99%

No antigen test meets MHRA desired criterion.
Will Avacta's??
Test, test, test
R4 Today 18/12/20 @ 7:49. Nick Gibbs
5.5M students tested twice three days apart to check break of the transmission of the virus after the Christmas break. Mass testing.
Guidance in middle of holidays!!
Due to logistics, this will be the Innova LFT.
Test process has already been trialled in some schools. That's why anterior swabs were required. Prrocess Conformity.
Test, test, test
Monkshood, what about the Brucker AN?

Test, test, test
Hahaha, it gets worse...
Avacta have probably just started clinical trials!
Test, test, test
Haha, as you stated he can now sell up his entire holding here.
The share option from today's RNS is his guarantee to his grave!!
No, to me they have planted a seed that has 10 years to grow and offers shareholders dilution if they take up the option!
WoW 2.3M share options @ 17p until 2030!!
Braveheart announces that, pursuant to the Share Option Plan, Trevor Brown and Vivian Hallam, both directors of Braveheart and persons discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMR") of the Company have been granted options over 1,200,000 and 500,000 Ordinary Shares of 2 pence each in the Group ("Ordinary Shares"), respectively, at an exercise price of 17p per share, being the closing mid-market price on 16 December 2020. The options vest with immediate effect and are exercisable up to 16 December 2030.
A further 650,000 options over Ordinary Shares have been granted to employees and consultants of the Group, on the same terms as above.
Nice dilution potential down the line!!
Seems King Trev's legacy goes on for another decade here too!
Test, test, test
Researching...
Interesting recent increase in orders for Biodot

A LFT that looks better than Innova offering from Abbott.
Sir Al needs to get a move on, "every man and his dog" appears to be beating on the door with a LFT!
Just need one that meets MHRA Desired Guidelines. Do Avacta have the LFT Grail?
Test, test, test
