Uninspiring and dull!
Boy! who are they trying to impress ? Who comes out with that kind of lame promo?
New country , difficult terrain, harsh conditions, a litany of challenges and being a newly discovered porphyry province requires people on the ground who can demonstrate that they are really up to it.
Proof of having an abundant amount of energy is an absolute prerequisite. If Asiamet is to fly it will need to accelerate to
take off power.
Where are the likes of Steven Hughes?
The ripple effect....and we have not started mining yet... it fills me with great hope for the futur...

Its an amazing school
Thanks for those who ticked the thumbs up
Mansur Geiger said: "In a sense, it all started with me going up river in a canoe and establishing strong relationships with the local Dayak people. Living and working closely with them created a special connection from the very beginning, and this all evolved into the need to support them in preparation for the future impact of a possible mining operation. Apart from the community development work, we trained the locals in all areas rather than bringing in outsiders, which also created an onÂgoing responsibility towards them. The first landmark (up to that point, our community efforts had been rather informal) was when Murray Clapham (Kalimantan Gold CEO) and I set up the Kalimantan Kids Club (KKC) in 1992 to help kids with their education. It started with a young girl who was a gold panner. She was an orphan who wanted to be a sports teacher, so we took her and the son of my original Dayak guide, Pak Sumbin, and put them into Palangkaraya University. Murray and I jointly funded the club, then others joined in. Within a couple of years we were sponsoring over a dozen kids."
This eventually led to the opening of a school in Palankaraya by Mansur'wife Utami.
Now I ( do not have any involvement with this institution ) respectfully bring out that topic because I learned that the economic hardship created by the pandemic ,as felt in many places, is also impacting the school.
If anyone wish to follow it up I will post the website. I also wish to apologise to you and accept your criticism if you find this post inappropriate.
Thornback I certainly did not meant to offend. Sorry I get carried away sometimes. Just that too many people here are still
equating KSK with BKM (or even the whole Beruang Kanan prospect) .
Who would sale the goose that lays golden eggs?
IMHO Best presentation so far from Tony and the project seems to be on the right track.
Firstly I have always maintained that Beutong should be sold. I have said so here a few times. It was used as a bargain chip to take possession of KSK and Good luck to Tigers Realm investors I say. But for Asiamet it is an unwieldy project for many reasons.
Secondly if I may, let me point out something which is crucial in what Tony said.
"..this project is in the bet shape as any project I have been involved because of the goodwill that has been build up thru the Trust Fund ..(which goes back some 30 years).....(and).....strategic investors having an alignment in all those things (extensive roll out of community programs) is a critical part of the decision making process for us choosing whom we go with..."
Mansur always maintained " Our exploration efforts and our Community efforts are one and the same"
How right is he?????
Now someone may say that there are no people living directly on our concession. It may be so,
at the moment . The real question is what about in the futur, or rather, why did Mansur and Co made sure from from the onset how important it was for the locals to be included and made to feel part of the project. You can work out that by yourself.
Now we read here and elsewhere people wishing someone comes and buy us out. This is so short sighted it is not even funny and reveal that the true scale of the KSK resources are yet to down on most investors.
They can sell their share if they want out but please leave the rest of us out of it!
Bracing for default
As fears swirl through the markets Evergrande will not be able to repay the $US300 billion it owes to banks, shadow lenders, suppliers and homebuyers, the property developers bonds have slumped to fresh lows of less than 30 cents on the dollar, suggesting investors are bracing for a default. (AFR)
This is going to be a massive hair cut for some investors. How many other developers under threat?
Lehman Bros that started the sub prime crisis , the gap was 20 Billion.
Real estate is not mining of course.
Thanks Thornback. So Nice to see that the old man is still getting his hand dirty .
What a legend. The Indiana Jones of Kalimantan.
His story is so interesting that it would not only make a bestseller it will also make Asiamet known
all over the world.
beautiful looking specimens.
There are others to come from KSK when the time is right. A different color though. Need to overcome BKM and its satellite zones first.
As you may have realised by now : easier said than done!

Thanks Thornback - Not sure how I could have missed it, never mind, glad to see his pic.
A picture reveals a lot about a person. I can tell you that Ashish has an eye for opportunities. He is very ambitious but
more importantly he is a person who like to expand and EXPAND. Make it that what you like I will summerize that when Ashish sees an opportunity and he has the funds he will not hesitate .
