Having been interestes in ATM and followed AV for quite a few years, I have no doubt he is a man of integrity. Mining is a tough business and nothing comes easy but so far progress is very positive for me. I've held here quietly for a while and will continue to do so. These metals are needed and only going to become more important over the rest of this decade and beyond.
Another 96k shares for me this morning. Happy with the update. Mining is a slow and steady business and professionalism and attention to detail required - the team is clearly delivering this. This is a strong all-round update. The main uncertainty remains future commodity pricing but I am positive on this - can't go much lower. Excellent news on partner funding - it takes as long as it takes - it's a company maker for Andrada.
I'm expecting a positive day for the share price once early speculative buyers exit positions. No reason not to push through 6-7p in the near-term. Beware posters with their own agendas and act on your own convictions. GLA.
Appears to be at least a couple of buyers via different market makers at this sp level. Any shares sold are being soaked up gently. I've added a couple of times this week and remain patient for news. If it takes a little longer that's fine by me - this is potentially company-making. Operational progress has gone better than I'd have expected over the last couple of years - few hitches and steady progress.
Theiceberg I agree entirely. In addition as a previous holder of PRD there are a few deceptively self-interested posters over there - beware. PANR is no small-cap outfit and PRD has a very long way to go to prove itself.
As usual on a relist there may be large orders being worked in the early days so I am wary of any immediate sp response which is unlikely to refkect the quality or otherwise of any deal reached. The MM's will do what they must to fill their orders. Looking forward to more info but treading cuatiosly on any buying or selling until the RNS is fully absorbed. I am neutral on any deal until I see the detail.
One of the all time great investors Charlie Munger said -
“And the wise ones bet heavily when the world offers them that opportunity. They bet big when they have the odds. And the rest of the time, they don’t. It’s just that simple.”
Like Oiler87 and others I have invested here as I believe this is one of these rare opportunities. I don't care what the spud price is but am as confident as I can be that post-drill result the sp will be higher than today and likely by quite a margin. All IMHO.
Employee issues are short-term and will resolve. There is 1 key question of relevance to medium/long-term investors - that none of us can answer just now. What are the specific terms of the RTO (if it goes ahead) and are they value-accretive to existing shareholders. I was happy holding pre-suspension. Now - I await the terms of any takeover. I have no view until I know what te details are. I will likely top up or sell out. I have no sp predictions - those are complete speculation. We just need to be patient and analyse the detail when it comes. GLA
Oiler87 Your point wasn't specifically asked but I did ask about the 4k bopd exit volume in 2004 and whether that was a minimum expectation - the answer is in my previous post - I think more than this is expected. Production stopped in 2004 due mainly to contractual reasons with the FPSO. Funding discussions have been held in recenbt months and banks/lenders are out there and available. I guess the question is what any equity/loan split would be - no point in asking that today.
Very pleased with the answers to my questions on height of oil column from Leslie. If the drill doesn't find say 80m oil column, the 2 prior drills with a 55m column both produced 8m barrels. Leslie's view even in a worst case scenario is that it is 'improbable' that there won't be a development. It may be that the oil is distributed differently in that case resulting in an amended plan to develop the field. Mid-Nov spud and mid-Dec result expected. Glad I topped up a few at the end of the day. GLA
MT Many thanks for posting your recent calculations. Being a cautious type I like the look of your 1C calculation of 17.3p sp based on $85 Brent. The question then would be what probability the market would assign to reaching a 1C outcome. At present it seems to be arond 25% given a sp of 4.3p on Friday - which is significantly below a reasonable assumption. I suspect that the market will apply a discount to any drill outcome but what would be a fair figure on the day before drill results arrive? It is easy to argue for 7-8p without stretching credibility. Given volumes traded last week there appear to be quite a few new investors buying in to the story.
On a 4000bopd scenario do you think that development would go ahead given capital costs and other potential uses of capital as yet unidentified?
Also the credibility of the new BoD is on the line. Buffalo will have been carefully chosen as a flagship starter project for ADV and will very likely succeed in some form or another.
Interesting to see Berenburg looking to pay 4.15p for 500k+ a few seconds prior to close despite a nominal fall in the bid from 4.1p to 4p. It seems that MM's available stock presumably from the equity raise appears to have dried up .
Happysparrow Thanks for sharing. Without wanting to turn this into a vaccine thread I agree with this report. mercola.com has similar information from an American perspective although his views are much more polarised given the polarisation in the US. DYOR and independent thinking is key as always.
SP fell previously due to institutional selling and stayed at 7-9p for quite a while. We are not in the same situation now. Whilst frustrating, we will get there but would like AK to provide us with some more tangible evidence of progress - eg debt restructure and Niger first oil.
Looks to me like the RNS may have been written by someone whose 1st language is not English? Clumsy not concerning.
