This is the bit that caught my attention: - Fiscal terms by end of March? Really? Is that possible? Impact on Co?

"There's 2 critical parts, I guess, to that FID. Firstly, fiscal terms and certainty and the consequent lifting of the suspension on grounds. Once that happens, we've got about 11 months of work to complete before we can take an FID. So if we're able to achieve securing fiscal terms, say, at the end of March, we'll be talking about an FID at the end of February next year"

Thanks for the transcript oldtramp. Very interesting.

Great to hear Tavsan E.I.A. will be concluded this quarter.
I was particularly pleased to hear him finally describe Tavsan as "a near term development asset". Hopefully we will see 30,000 oz p.a. production from 2022.

The Resource drill programme at Kiziltepe (Arzu North etc.) will of course importantly increase the Life of Mine, which is much needed to provide Investor comfort.

He seems excited about building in a gold element to the Cyprus JORC Resource which as he says will add significant value. As soon as next month resource confirmation work will be underway
Increased Mill production at Kiziltepe sounds to be well on target. H2?

And finally "Eyes on a number of very good projects" - Doesn't sound like news on this front is far away either.

On ADVFN comments that clues point to a Tjate deal. Could this really be true after all these years?

With discussions underway does anyone get the impression that approval could be granted fairly soon now? Sounds like Co is making all the necessary arrangements to ensure everything has been done that can be done, so as soon as they get the green light it is all systems go. End of Q1 anyone? What impact will this have on our SP anyone. If Madagascar is go, that’s the end of the dividend for now as all monies will be rightly redirected into developing this valuable growth prospect. That’s my take, but please correct if you see differently.

Goldman Warns Of Historic Shortage As #Copper Explodes Higher

I've added a No. 4 to the strategy.

KEY EXTRACTS FROM THE RECENT PROACTIVE ARTICLE - 18th February 2021

VISION:

“Develop the company strategy to target a further ten-fold multiplication in market capitalisation within the next decade”

That means going from £50m to £500m

Kerim:- “I now see no obstacles to achieving our next target by 2030 and I encourage our shareholders to support this vision.”

STRATEGY:

Kerim draws attention to the “war chest” of the company of over £25mln, which he is planning to utilise in part to reward long-term shareholders with a substantial special dividend, with the remaining funds earmarked to develop the company strategy to target a further ten-fold multiplication in market capitalisation within the next decade.

Plans include:
Increasing gold production at Red Rabbit to 50,000 ozs p.a, as the joint venture expands it resource base and production capacity.
2. Tavsan mine to begin producing, with a feasibility study and its associated Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) to conclude in 2021. 
3. To be followed in a few years by the Salinbas project.
4. Developing interests in other jurisdictions and working up a strategy which will leverage the expertise and credibility of the Ariana team, built over many years, to advance new project opportunities.

Kerim says “focused on turning the possible into reality”.

We've got to help the Co. get this exciting message out there. At the moment few understand what we are about. Now we have clear guidance, albeit the strategy is still evolving. Just certain key aspects are in place , but there is going to be a lot more exciting elements to add to the mix. As Kerim says - they are developing interests in other jurisdictions and working up a strategy which will leverage the expertise and credibility of the Ariana team, built over many years, to advance new project opportunities.

Quarterly Update from AAU this week?

Lots of commentators seem very bullish on copper. Have we bought into our 50% of Venus Minerals at just the right time?

Posting it again in case anyone missed it. Setting out a clear vision. I?m posting this great article again in case anyone missed it first time round., Enjoy.

ORPH presentation at the Mello Monday conference on Monday

hxxps://melloevents.com/mellomonday-22nd-february-2021/

Hummingbird presenting at this conference on Monday I believe.

It’s the Mello Conference starting Monday I believe. Will we be invited to see any ORPH presentations?

Unfortunately or is it fortunately we still seem to have our seller. Perhaps the Estate of the late Bruce Rowan. This just keeps the share price at absolute rock bottom value. Half our valuation is now in hard cash!!
Friday is of course the General Meeting to move forward the mechanism to pay all shareholders a tasty special pay-out. Have you cast your vote?

The story is simple. This is projected to be a dividend paying ten bagger stock. Exciting or what?
Please read the proactive article. Enjoy

On 18 January 2021, Christopher Sangster, Non-Executive Director, purchased 210,443 Ordinary Shares in his SIPP at 4.75p per share.

Base Resources has released an update to the Kwale North Dune Mineral Resources estimate and the maiden Bumamani Mineral Resources estimate to the ASX.

Best thing I seen in ages. Just what we need. Kerim committing to a firm quantifiable Vision (goal) with a strategy (plan) to deliver it. Market Cap. of £50m to £500m by 2030. This could make our Co. come to light. A light bulb moment. It just needs to be built into all communications and the strategy (steps/milestones) to achieve it need to be set out clearly. Gantt chart!!
I'm really excited by this.
