Koko's got a hide like a rhino, plus he's still safe as houses until at least after the GE in May. And let's not forget that some of his bosses ie the Guptas have already fled SA with their loot, so no doubt he's already hidden the billions he stole and will have a safe route out of SA to UAE if he feels the heat has been turned up too much. Scumbag...

OHANNESBURG - President Cyril Ramaphosa will on Thursday afternoon update South Africans about government’s processing of evidence emerging from the state capture commission when he replies to questions in the National Assembly.

The Presidency says that Ramaphosa will also unpack the government’s plans for Eskom, including measures to stabilise the power utility’s finances and ensure the security of electricity supply.

There's 12 pages of V info in there, incl a fairly decent summary of Bushy and V demand for energy storage, plus lots more.

PS to get rid of the annoying pop-up on every page just click the x in the O just below the email addy field

Before anyone corrects me, I've spotted that my projected figures using previous years % rises are incorrect on the low side.

The corrected projections are 99p (36p+175%) by end of May and £1.91 (36+430%) by Xmas. Nah, we'll never manage such high numbers in such a short timeframe...

Or will we? ;-)

I've just been looking at BMNs LSE share chart for the last few years and, according to that chart, in March 2017 the sp went from 2.8p to 7.88p in a little over a month (a rise of 180+%), and in March 2018 it went from 8.53p to 23.2p in a 2 month period (a rise of 170+%). Following that there was a consolidation down to 18.62p before hitting a peak of 45.83p in late November, a rise of 430+% for the year).

IF! 2019 is like the previous 2 years then I see the sp around 63p by mid-April, and IF! we can do what we did last year then I see us knocking on the door of £1.55 by Xmas.

Just dreaming but it could happen that way... :-)

I see he's cycling with his entire team of mates too :-)

Alfa, I'm afraid I don't know as the news article didn't specify, but I suspect the residents either don't care or can't remember but it's a great excuse to not pay, and so on and on and on it goes.

How the ANC are going to get themselves out of this particular pickle and get that R17billion that's owed I really don't know but it's amazing what politicians the world over will offer voters in order to win elections and the power that goes with it - as long as they don't have to pay for it out of their own pockets, that is!

Vanadium-based lithium batteries are well on the way to becoming a reality. A lot more market demand for V in the future

to break the boredom, which sum up Eskom and SA corruption quite nicely, but done with humour:

This one refers to the news that Soweto owes Eskom R17Billion but the residents refuse to pay their bills because the ANC promised them free electricity in its inaugural election campaign (smart move ANC lol):

And this one refers to the number of inquiries into state capture which are underway currently. Cyrils hands are tied because the courts have said that prosecutions cannot go ahead until these commissions are complete (almost another 2 years)

Agreed Alfa but many in SA have been waiting for a long time to see the first Eskom exec or politician in the dock and until that happens it’s looting continua as the corrupt will continue to think that they’re untouchable as they were under Zuma. Cyril needs to clean up SAPS and the NPA and also the PP and get those areas working properly and only then will the thieves smugglers and gangsters start looking over their shoulders

I just kept blind clicking the bottom left hand corner until it started

Ah, ok thanks brasi

Great presentation by Fortune! ;-)

But I was a little disappointed that there were no slides, esp the last one with the 6/7 key points that summarise the investment proposition for BMN

A much quicker way to get to Alfas original post is to click on Reply for this thread then scroll down to the bottom and there it is. Takes about 15 secs lol

PS now on 98, who's gonna tip it over the line?

I've just made it 93, only 7 to go...

That sounds promising mate, keep the good news coming ;-)

Hi reteps, I've just seen your post, just want to wish you good luck in beating whatever it is that ails you.

Stay strong to win!

Can you believe it, this guy's actually pleased that SA have just been placed in 56th place out of 85 for the attractiveness of its mining policies!

Now, it's not for me to say, but I don't think that he's really the sort of chap who should be in charge of the SA DMR when he has such low expectations and weak targets. With 27% of the working-age population unemployed he should be shooting for the top 10 as an absolute minimum. AIMO of course :-)

was to be put out by FM, would it make potential sellers have a rethink? Personally, I like the idea and the cost of the RNS would be like a mere mozzy bite to BMN

And the correct answer is:
