Doctor: You're results are in.
Patient: Oh! what is the result
Doctor:Sorry, you have Covid-19. You need to isolate for 14 days and we then retest. Not much we can do unless you get worse.
Patient: Oh, but isn't there anything you can do?
Doctor, Well, I shouldn't tell you this but if you spend £1000 on SNG shares I can get you on a trial where you will have a 50% chance of getting their new drug that looks very promising.

Nope, a terrible idea and the worst PR stunt ever thought of.......

Much as I'd love to have preferential treatment, but this idea would rapidly backfire!

I can see accusations of elitism for those that can afford to buy shares. SNG selling their product to a select few who can afford shares. Not a message that they would want to promote.

Er..... Careful with these thoughts. SNG001 will not help with social distancing rules. It will help those that have contracted the virus. It will still be best no to get infected.

The virus is a virus and will do what a virus does. It will transfer from host to host to replicate. No therapeutic will stop that. The way to defeat this is by using all the tools we have, one of which is SNG001. Hand washing, basic hygiene, masks and social distancing are the first (and best) defences. If we can reduce transmission below the level the virus needs to replicate we can eventually win.

I'm afraid there is no silver bullet and restrictions of one for or another will be with us for some time.

Are you trying to say that out Hydrogen is just an old gas bag? Tut, tut......

Agreed, the RNS in itself is no great shakes. It does confirm the, largely expected, safety aspect as well as being effective against a range of viruses. This we knew, but nice to have it confirmed. It is titled as 'interim'.

I read this as very tactical. Exactly what for remains to be seen, but my vote is a 'heads up' on something bigg(er) and very soon. Will watch Fauci this afternoon with interest!

I think it's more of a 'heads up' messaging.

I'm now very interested in Fauci's words later today...... That is the potential rocket ship!

I disagree, well partly disagree!

Money gives you greater choice. It's the choices you make that can or cannot bring happiness. I.e. it's not the money, but what you do with it that's key.

Sounds great, Merc........ but?

With all these electric cars running around, playing taxi, looking for custom...... will there not be a little oversupply.

Maybe I should stick with a little local run around and use the very cheap electric taxis during the day. Keep all my excess power to sell to the grid and save on the capital cost of buying a big car?

Hoping to complete the repair of my pension fund following the covid crash and FTSE still below 6000.

Currently a race for news this month between GGP and SNG. Either one should give me a big enough top slice to get there, then a free ride to the end wherever that is! I'm hoping SNG win the race, as I prefer GGP for the really long legs.....

Strange household, Stuart!
Your wife and daughter jumping on your head and having to duck three times. Oh my!

That's where I always start, the company and it's product. If I'm in tune with that, then I look at the directors both exec and non exec, their experience etc. The financials is the last thing I look at, only when everything else has passed my 'smell' tests! Oh, and never forget the competition and the market they operate in too. It does become an interesting, and hopefully rewarding hobby.

I have to confess to a little jealousy, though! At your age, I didn't have all the information you now have at the touch of a button. My research in the past did take lots of time....

Have fun and enjoy.

@slatsey, you are not weak at all. you are simply an investor, exactly the same as anyone else.

These derogatory terms, I find offensive. There are more than a 1000 reasons why anyone would sell a holding. It does not make them weak. It may be something someone else dislikes and they try to use Trumpist tactics to bully others.

If you need to sell, for whatever reason, you go ahead. Don't be swayed by a keyboard warrior who wants everyone to hold on so that the share value increases. I will get pushback from the Trumpist element on here, but it is all water off a ducks back to me.

All you need to do is consider the obvious fact that when they have reached their investment goal/threshold/reason to rebalance etc., they will not give the rest of us reasonable warning that they intend to sell. They will simply do it and walk off into the sunset with two fingers up saying "s'long suckers".

There are no weak or strong investors. Period. There are those that seek to influence for their own ends, ignore them and do what is best for you.

I think we are OK where we are, the local animals are friendly and like having us around.

In some other places, however, (e.g. some spots in Africa) I'm told that the animals can get a bid jumpy. The rabbits have a tendency to team up with a few foxes and they turn up with big guns to take away all your hard earned.......

Don't forget to include the Breccia deposits. This, of course, can only be calculated with reference to pickled onions. Is it the nice big jar found in the local Chippy, or the small jar i have in my fridge?

A nice quote from the job description:

"The Havieron Project has enjoyed tremendous exploration success over the past year and is rapidly approaching delivery of a maiden resource, with high future mining potential. The Havieron Project is the primary target of the Newcrest-operated farm-in and potential joint venture with Greatland Gold and forms a key focus of Newcrest’s growth strategy. "

Now, if that message is coming from their Human resources dept, then how much more interesting is it behind closed doors at board level?

A| long line of ducks stretching far into the distance.

The answer is 42, as any well travelled hitchhiker knows.

You are forgiven.
Say three ducks, three times, and go in peace my son.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the very nature of a mining company? They would be constantly digging out their gold (or whatever 'product' they target), thus depleting their reserves. As they use up their higher grade material and move to lower grade, then production costs (AISC) measured as a per oz (in the case of gold) amount will rise.

So surely this is the nature of the business, which is why prospectors such as GGP exist. Miners spend their time working out ever more cost effective ways to extract and process minerals, while prospectors spend their time scouring the planet for ever more scarce resources. Yes?

Luckily, we have found a monster right next door to a miner who is in desperate need to feed his machine. Dog with two whatsits, as it were.

Have a good weekend all.

Ok, good luck!

So..... you are happy to be invested in Prim, with the vast majority of their holdings being in GGP, giving you an additional layer of administrative cost and less liquidity (if you need to sell). Interesting logic.

Me, I'll stick with neat, undiluted, full strength GGP.

Try ramping Prim elsewhere, matey.

More information needed, question too broad!

On what size of Hav, how many other prospects prove up, to what size, POG, Copper, Cobalt, etc etc etc.

Look up, the shy is the limit!
