Hope so ian......just need something to turn the sceptics off...makes this share a traders dream...living off years of uncertainty certainly plays in to their hands....AP must get himself a good IR team to bang the drum louder....the one he has now are pretty dire......B

ORT....with regard to the licences granted to date...5 you say.....is there any clues as to how long they took to convert from an admission document to a granted licence....B

That makes sense as the company says only 1.5% sits in private hands...….. those boys are looking after them golden tickets for us all, …………….Thanks. B

Looking through past notes from Brandon, I spotted they always give an update on major shareholders....I see most of them have reduced holdings, I assume to satisfy demand/liquidity needs......

MAIN SHAREHOLDERS HOLDING

MAY AUG

Hargreaves Lansdown Asset 18.68% 11.72%
Interactive Investor Sharedealing 12.18% 8%
Halifax Share Dealing 10.08% 6.7%
Barclays Wealth and Investment 6.74% 5.57%

Is the change in holdings of these big boys an indication that they have moved their shares in to the hands of more retail stickier fingers or something else......not sure if they can loan them out to shorters……...can they ?

B

I think I share the sentiment DG1..... AP has really played this badly and has had the opposite effect of re assuring or giving detail...… to think since the June RNS, he has been on multiple podcasts, an investors night and more RNS.... and leaving shareholders to join the dots...………. I noticed that the brokers flashnote actually sits within the VAST website..... under presentations...………… so in some ways an endorsement of their note and its contents rather than a distancing…..AP must have had the opportunity to ask them to modify the September guess - remember AP didn't give one in the RNS..he just said shortly...… so why has he allowed the Broker to convert that generalisation in to a September timeframe......knowing that it would have a material impact on the SP...… I think it was at 65 and creeping up prior to the Flashnote… now almost 10% down, which means further to go when the licence arrives...………….. oh...… wheres that cuppa NH...…..B

why we are here...…lets bring a bit of cheer...…. and a cuppa

BAITA PLAI POLYMETALLIC MINE

and much more............B

Mood has changed here for sure and I guess for LTH, probably feels like last September.....and the nearly there. Lots of doom predictions to send us back in to the 50s...…... I think this is where AP needs to distract from the BP L wait and get the juices flowing with other successes …..As I said the other week, AP is a desperate man and his attempts to add detail via Podcast only ends up supplying the rope to hang himself with...… as pointed out there are other things going on...…. so come on AP stop slipping on banana skins.... B

see you later mercman…………….I too used to run off to what appears to be better pastures only to see the ship I jumped from do better [longer term] than the one I jumped to...…. I was very tempted to bail here and go fully back in to wsg @ 9p..….[now 14p]……. but I will never get the timing right and I strongly believe over the next 2/3 years, VAST will have achieved mid tier status... and probably 5 bagged or better on the way..so unless every opportunity for VAST takes 3 years to come on line, and AP isn't saying that [yes, I know his credibility is blown to shreds] , then I will stick with VAST... and admit …. it is difficult to sit on hands when the sp drifts down...…...B

morning all vasters………………. what will the MMs have in store today...…….. back to mid 6s or test us with high 5s.... Amazing AP hasn't set up a podcast this week to explain himself...……….. usually gives a little fizz to the SP. I am starting to agree with the consensus that Aug is looking slim for the licence to pop out. I can imagine the paperwork is more than 2 sides of A4, so unless the ministry do not have to read it, page turning and the conversion in to a licence will be a couple of weeks... add in that 2 week summer break peeps were talking about and Sept seems to fall naturally out of the calcs…….. AP converted back to general timelines... shortly is a great word...……….. said something similar last September [17]………...I wonder if the other news will take some of the sting away...……… just need another kick to launch us in to the 7s...…………. B..

I await mystic tuppence response...apologies if i have damaged any chartists reputation or worse found a more accurate tool for investment decision making'.B

ORT........is that more scientific than tuppence and his tealeaves.......i need to know which one to trust...B

Agreed...worth a watch this one thiugj. Out of favour at the mo.... i suspect if it ever sees green shoots of recovery it will head straight back to 1.50p.....and very likely under the radar of the herd B

No.......

Feel familiar?

Part 2 some many months later,,,,,, TORONTO, May 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Euro Sun Mining Inc. (TSX:ESM) (“Euro Sun” or the “Company”) reports that following a meeting with the Secretary General of Government (“SGG”) in conjunction with the National Agency for Mineral Resources (“NAMR”), that it has been confirmed to the Company that the Ministry of Economy, the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Waters and Forests have all signed the Mining License. The Mining License is now with the Ministry of Public Finance for signature, following which it will be sent to the Ministry of Justice. The fully executed License will then return to SGG for signature by the Prime Minister at the next available Government meeting. This will conclude the ratification process and the Mining License approval will be published in the Official Monitor. G. Scott Moore, President and CEO of Euro Sun stated: “The Secretary General of Government assured management of their intention to ratify our Mining License and will submit the fundamental note to the Government Meeting at the earliest opportunity following the signature of the Ministry of Justice. My team and I are in Romania, to assist where necessary, and to ensure a quick completion of the ratification. We look forward to initiating the next phase of the Rovina Valley Project for the State of Romania, our local communities and for all our stakeholders.” The Rovina Valley Project is one of the largest mineral deposits in Europe and consists of three porphyry deposits: Colnic and Rovina, and Ciresta. The Project hosts measured and indicated mineral resources of 7.2 million ounces of gold and 1.4 billion pounds of copper in 406 million tonnes at 0.55 gold grams per tonne and 0.16% of contained copper.

I have been reading some past rms from euro sun . A tsx company who were awarded a mining lcence in late 2017 in the Rovina Valley. It is interesting to compare as they purport to being the first mining licence granted to a non state owned entity by the Rom Gov......looks just as totuous...interesting read though. B TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Aug. 3, 2017) - Euro Sun Mining Inc. (TSX:ESM) ("Euro Sun" or the "Company"), reports that the Romanian National Agency for Mineral Resources ("NAMR") has issued an official notice to the Company announcing that the ratification process related to the mining licence of its Rovina Valley Project granted in May,2015, has been initiated. NAMR has completed their review and recommendations in the form of an explanatory memorandum following the successful public audience held at their offices on June 26, 2017 (see press releases from June 14 and June 26, 2017, for details), which will be forwarded to the required ministers for endorsement. An excerpt from the official translation of the notice issued by the President of NAMR, Mr. Aurel Gheorghe, states, "…please be informed that following an analysis of the proposals raised in the public debate of June 26, 2017, in connection with the draft Government Decision on the approval of the Concession License under discussion, the Explanatory Memorandum has been finalized, which will be posted on the website of the National Agency for Mineral Resources in the course of the next week. Following the lapse of the 30 statutory days after the posting date, the Licence and the Explanatory Memorandum will be forwarded for endorsement to the competent institutions, in view of approving License no. 18174/2015 by Government Decision, according to the applicable legislation." The Mining Licence for the exploitation of the Company's Rovina Valley Project requires the signatures of the Minister of Economy, Minister of Environment, Minister of Justice and Minister of Finance. Once these signatures are obtained, the Mining Licence will be sent to the Secretary General of Parliament and to the Prime Minister for final signatures, before being published in the official government Gazette. Scott Moore, President and CEO of Euro Sun Mining, stated, "We are very pleased to see the process to ratify our mining license begin, following our successful public audience in June. Once ratification is completed we will progress with the initiation of our Environmental Impact Study. We would like to thank NAMR for their support of this important project for Euro Sun and for Romania. As the first non-state-owned entity to have been issued a Mining Licence, we are committed to developing the Rovina Valley Project as an example of responsible mining to the highest environmental standards, and in the process, provide meaningful economic impact to our local community partners and to the Romanian State."

I think many carry xtr scars.....i remember my biggest loss came from african minerals......so much hope... crooked management....funny enough my holding still sits in my trading account...untradeable ut says.... a lasting memory of how to loose 20 grand ! B

And anyway.... AP didn't say August,[see below] so the Flash note is equally *******5 for suggesting that VAST had eluded to it and proposing September was more likely...……. you would almost think that the Flashnote had been purposely put out there to quell the rise...… Fake News as Trumpy would say...……PS.... We need to find Mr Shortly..... apparently the licence is following him...………………...maybe we can trap him !!………...B

The joint application to ANRM is the final stage in what has been a protracted legal and administrative process and the Company has reason to believe that the actual grant of the Association Licence will follow shortly

morning everyone...…….. As AP has decided to breakdown the licence application in to smaller parts [and the latest RNS states it has now moved from joint application to the Resource Ministry for licence issue], I wonder if we will get a RNS this week stating it has moved from the Post Room to the Officer dealing with the licence...….It would be great if we could also be updated on Tea Breaks and Holidays [particularly if the Officer is going somewhere nice]……….I agree with most that it is only after the glacial movement has eventually stopped we will be able to truly see the value that the licence can bring, so what could another 2-4 weeks hurt against a backdrop of years...….. Lets hope for a blue day... 70s seems so far away...…………….B

Best get the licence out of the way prior to their holidays then...i am sure AP knows all about it and factored it in to his calculations B
