Not easy being patient but here is my take on state of affairs:
- kb wanted/needed out anyway and mb didnt want to afford luxury of a higher price and certainly not selling down news. In effect substantial portion of company changed hands ii->patient pi during this sell down at the £20-25m mcap level. I know, I took 2% of the company.
- we are assured from the valuation of Blackrock which is listed on an arguably more mature exchange (certainly for miners) that our valuation is well out of kilter particularly on measures of npv and irr and low capex needed to finance the mine.
- comms isn't great and we want a lot more for it not to appear to be run as a private company but do we expect no progress to have happened behind the scenes in the period since ml? Vanishingly small probability of that.
So we are due news absolutely, shareprice is as low as ever since I first invested but does that mean it isn't investable? Absolutely not. I can only draw on my experience with Horizonte where my initial forays were 4-4.4p and in subsequent years I filled my boots at 1.7-2p and even divested some 8-10p and hold the majority for much greater gains in years to come (now fully financed). Make no mistake today is around the best buying opportunity in armadale in the last 18-24 months and good money will be made here. Caveat of course you have to believe in the asset, the jurisdiction, and the mgt. I do and I have and now have around 25-30% of portfolio by value here. Eye always, like SJ , on the longer game. Gla
