Perhaps we will but we invest in companies we believe in, otherwise what's the point. I'm not a gambler, red or black I just read and understand what I can and make a decision. We have a small Market cap and the share price will move up and down in extreme moves and be manipulated easily. You have to look at the bigger picture and hold your nerve. I'm not saying I'm right, I'm just saying if you do the research and try to see past the day to day manipulation you may reach the same conclusion as myself. Anyway I wish all our long term share holders well and to our newer investors, please do some research to understand why we are invested. We have a great future, and congratulations at investing here.

I'm fortunate to have have bought here at 17p and no intention of selling. I'm an investor rather than a trader and hold for the long term. My portfolio of companies is small and a few have bitten the dust but Futura has a great future. I admit I did sell some at 75 in may 21 so effectively have my holding for free but we have a great future.

I bought here in 2020 at 0.76 and hold 2.1 million shares. I have been frustrated over this time and with hindsight could have sold at higher prices and bought back at lower. However, I'm an investor rather than a trader and happy to wait. So right now I'm in profit again and of course there is a temptation to sell but I really do believe this time it's for real. So much potential, that's why I'm here. To be honest I wouldn't be tempted at three times this price. All gold miners are down and comes in cycles, we are vastly undervalued and when it turns will be top rises day after day. Good luck and here's to the next few years to come.

Thanks Robjm66, exciting stuff. Very well written piece and explains what's going on in simple terms. I will rrermain invested and looking forward to when the market catches up.

Like many of you, it's good to have the long awaited news out the way now. There are still some doubts about costs on going etc but most uncertainties have been put to bed I think. The concern of new shorts opening at a higher price are still there and until this discusting practice is banned you just have to switch off and invest for the long term. I'm lucky to have a 6.5p average although was much lower before buying more between 10p and 20p. I'm sure there are many who have averages of 20p plus who would like to know when a breakeven target at least would be reached. What are investers opinions here? Personally for myself I will be holding for years to come, with hopefully no more share dilution.For some the share price performance so far today is disappointing, but with a 460mc and over 4 billion shares it will take time. Personally I would not consider taking any profits here until a minimum of a 2 billion mc is reached. Looking forward to hearing from Shaun, hold on to those shares.

Holding up really well, hopefully more to come in the coming days /weeks. I'm pleased to be up 7% @0.85, obviously some have made a very good profit if they bought a few days ago. Can't blame a few taking some profit out in this crazy market.

Not big buys today,I'm surprised. News tomorrow?

What??

Yes I agree which is why I cashed in shares in other companies at a loss. I should have taken a healthy profit on nearly all of them a year ago, instead had to sell most at a loss. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, if only I could go back in time. The bumpy road I refer to is a crash looming, bigger than 2008 or possibly as big as 1929 some are warning. I believe gold stocks and funded gold exploration companies will do well. Some have said crypto will be the new way and replace gold, I just can't see that. Gold will always have value and we may see gold at 3-5,000 in the coming years. None of the shares I sold were bad, it was just I was too optimistic (greedy) and invested too much. I made a choice on the ones I would hold and this one as well as a few others ticked the box. I'm more comfortable now and can relax a bit, watching the day to day movements without too much stress. GL

I'm surprised that gold has dropped in such an unsettled market. Sold a lot of shares of other companies yesterday, some at a hefty loss but increased my position here. I think the markets are in for a bumpy ride in the next few weeks /months but I have confidence that value will shine through here. Good luck

Mafs, thank you very much for your response. I suppose at the end of the day it depends on how much of a loss as individual's we can stomach(tempory) before the market recovers. Unfortunately for myself I've over done it, so will have to reduce exposure elsewhere except here, and a couple of others. Probably the same old story as soon as I sell, up they go! Thanks Mafs

Hi Mafs, I'm holding about 2.2 ml shares here now and of course very pleased with the outcome here although still underwater. Unfortunately my mistake has been to be too heavy in exploration companies in gold and lithium etc, so my overall portfolio has plumetted. As I'm relatively new to the sector do you see a risk off anytime soon or would it be wiser to reduce exposure to the sector. Some experts say gold is going to 2,500 near term and some are saying it reached its peak and will fall. I'm invested in other stocks (ggp etc) and stunned that even with good news continues to drop. Like yourself I can't see how we shouldn't be at least a 1p by now but the buyer's just don't to be here at the moment.

Bid stuck on 0.7045, come on let's see a 1p today!

This company has a 12.86 mc, it seems obvious that the company should be higher than that. If it wasn't for the risk off market this would be flying. Has anyone done any realistic sums to show the potential value going forward. The more I read the more excited I get. I have over two million shares and the plan was to slice at a penny, but I have decided to stick with it with no slice. We don't need cash at the moment but I would buy more if we did. Good luck

I too worry about a fund raise and would like to know more about cash burn and how much going forward would be needed. However, knowing Robert has invested over 4m @1.04 allows me to sleep a little easier GL

I've just topped up again, really have to stop myself now. This seems to be bubbling around this price for a while now, the upside looks huge. Hopefully I've done the right thing, I really can't see much downside from here. GL

Sorry, meant to be reply to sharky on prices thread!

Who knows, could be as the market is crazy. I'm convinced my investment here and will become multi billion company. For whatever reason I believe we are being played,but can't last. GL

That would be nice!
Our market cap would be approx 92m,before any dilution. That's not impossible, in fact I would say probable over time. Gl

Jebgooner I agree I've been told lies by many Ceo's on Aim but it's different here. Ggp will be huge and a share price to match. It's very frustrating at the moment with our daily decline but I believe in the months to come people will be paying two or three times the price. I'm going to be here for years (unless we are bought out) and believe that we will be a big Aim success story. GL
