The Mafia are not allowing anything .. they are losing control and even the 2$ billion paper dumped the other day has been blown away.

Gold peaking it's head over $1300

Dekel holding all the cards as Gold starts to seriously break through.

;o)

[juju44] 02/5/2016 09:53

Nope , I believe the yank money mafia will allow gold to go up and that will lift all boats even a wreck like this one

[onedayrodders] 01/5/2016 22:19

So you have sold out then juju ?

[bluebell1] 01/5/2016 15:17

It looks like the Chinos may have strung us along hoping that we would sell out on the cheap. It could be a bit of mind gaming going on with them to try and grab a bigger piece of the pie.Dekels choice's are limited, he must either go it alone with a small mine to get into production which would still mean raising cash through equity and bonds. Or strike a deal with the Chinese which may leave us with a much reduced % of a big pie.Or he else he goes out and tries to lure in an Australian or other mining co.

It is easy to appear Dynamic when Gold is firmly beyond $1350.

If we go back many years ago,when some with shovels and just a promise,were valued at £25 Million, that wasn`t Dynamism,in fact many were just crooks taking advantage of bulliish sentiment.


Dynamism.is arguably surviving when the Market forgets you exist,until everyone
wants to know about you.

Whether Gold is running a little too fast,will be a hindsight,yet it is looking
promising for a solid $1300 range this year.

Gold buying season versus paper Gold will at least be volatile.

This was a good interview


Dekel refrains from beating the drum and thumping the desk,yet sometimes
I do wish there was a little of Mr Trump`s type of enthusiasm.

I do take some comfort when Directors have reasonable skin in the game,especially a Finance Director.

"We wont sell too cheaply & Value for Investors"are at least comfort words.

Having followed Gold for 30+ years,the highest I have personally witnessed of $1000 per ounce in the ground will no doubt be bettered in the next few years,so I do expect to see $200 per ounce as a low value for believable resources,eventually

Ironic that Brancote`s resource of circa 5Million ounces was bid for at circa £50 per ounce- years back.
I was very crudely numbercrunching $50,so I was more than happy

We just need Management to formulate that "any cash cow"in its simplicity and lowest cost until one of the Giants and their declining resources just says "name your price !!"

No Gurantees with anything,yet a mere logic that $Billions in Gold at retail
are not going to be wasted .

I would be staggered if the Chinese are not interested,as they need to be involved with producers where they can fairly Guarantee the Gold produced
will end up in China.

Time is currently on our side,and at 7p -arguably ludicrously in our favour.

Nothing much to say now until some rumours no doubt circulate,bar watching
the price of Gold.

cheers dundeetrader

Dekel explains exactly what the plan is from here....buyers either pay up properly or run along and stop wasting everybody's time.

In the interim they make all the moves for a small scale production which will re-rate the Company. And buyers can watch their cheap bids look just that as the share price AND the POG surges.

Sit tight and wait for the fun to begin.

This has to be worth a punt.

[casual47] 29/4/2016 16:31

FWIW, if gold stays above (or beyond) 1275 I will join ODR in his excitement re. Gold outbreak.

CGH is another matter. Though at least if gold hits new highs again not even Dekel can f this up.......?

[onedayrodders] 29/4/2016 09:38

Yep... richgit, Dekel is a shareholder like us and this is his only project.
It's more important to him than anyone that he gets top $.

The more gold breaks out to the upside the more the balance of play swings in favour of Charaat. It's obvious that local politics are being used and interested parties do not want Charaat's resource in the spotlight so they can exploit at much cheaper levels.

However with Gold moving to $1300, %1400 etc I'm sure some big hitters will join the queue for one of the last remaining world class deposits.

[juju44] 29/4/2016 09:04

Market doesnt agree with uou Rich - and gold soaring -not good

[richgit] 29/4/2016 08:42

ODR.

There are many agendas,as we all have them,yet in Dekels words "value for investors"

For one of the largest Resources around we can but assume that value is somewhat beyond 7p even if they stick the lot on e-bay.

As I admittedly this time got My timing wrong with my Gold picks as only the glory of hindsight shows the utter desperations of illegal Manipulations continuing a lot longer than I thought they could.

Of course what we have additionally witnessed, that they did not have from 1998
onwards......" Robot High speed Trading Computers" and Dracula at top spot in
Paper Gold- printing any quantity of Paper Contract shorts possible -in Market Fraud !!! so obscene that many call it embarrassingly blatantly obvious .

Look back in History as to who had to be saved by the UK Gold auction and then
consider whether the Fraudsters are so clever and all powerful.



Huge averaging down has been the game,with the plan to eventually "average up"
when Gold has truly broken the shackles of Paper Fraud.

Somewhat ironic that Dracula is advising that the only real "Money" will be Gold
and of course- always was,so no wonder Dracula has amassed Millions of ounces of Silver not only because it will be in short supply,yet because there may not be any when Gold is in short supply.

If the open pit plan had good merit in 2013 then it surely must have now,and
I would welcome 20,000 ounce production leading to 50,000 ounce production
and then what other upsides can be welcomed into Gold beyond $1900 from those
Resources in the ground


I consider the only reason they backed off was because the Cabal produced their
monster Paper Nuke fraud with all the usual brigade calling for $800 Gold.

No doubt Dekel is hoping that in a few months He can produce a rabbit out of the hat for what could be $Billions at retail and a Gold price that suggests
opportunistic manipulation or bids have missed the window of the worst sentiment in all time.


My own view and reasons to stay are that even on Ebay the stock is "surely" worth more than 7p,ie £20 Million and if Dekel gets it right a huge multiple beyond that.

I don`t suggest that Investors blindly hold CGH or any stock if it is their only one holding too much of available Capital,yet in a numbers game of percentages of holding a few -the argument stands up.

Crikey what a double act

[juju44] 28/4/2016 10:10

Golan should be the one to go - he just hasnt got it

[casual47] 28/4/2016 10:09

So holding CGH has come down to an act of faith now?

Not very encouraging....

[onedayrodders] 28/4/2016 09:58

I guess that's down to those who still believe and those who don't.

Only question being .. for those who don't why are they still hanging around ?

[casual47] 26/4/2016 21:52

Yes, and they couldn't pull it off then so why would they now?

[richgit] 26/4/2016 21:18

The stock was at that 30p when CGH announced the below strategy.

Then of course the Fraudsters,utterly smashed paper Gold and left the whole Gold Industry wondering to what extent the Frauds could continue and whether
the Central Planner Fraudsters could smash their PAPER GOLD to $800

Little wonder the below plan needed a rethink -ie buy more time !!!

Investors are understandably frustrated with what appears Management indecision,
yet Dekel is no doubt playing His hardest game of chess yet-knowing His possible
checkmate is a confirmed Physical Gold price range.

We all know that if/when Physical Gold shows it can maintain a $1150-$1300 price
range,that sentiment will improve -which means valuations will improve.

That chicken and egg catch 22.

Chaarat Gold Holdings Limited

Tulkubash project update

Chaarat (AIM - CGH), the AIM quoted gold exploration and development company with assets in the Kyrgyz Republic is pleased to provide a project update on the Tulkubash project, which is part of the Chaarat project area located in the north west of the Kyrgyz Republic.

Highlights

-- Production to commence with heap leach operation - reducing capital cost and power requirements

-- Production timing unchanged, targeting second half of 2013

-- Funding needs contained due to tight control of capital expenditure and change in development strategy

-- Increase in gold resource to 5.76M ounces following 2012 drilling season

Dekel Golan CEO commented: "We have maintained the momentum towards production. Our project team has submitted designs for approval and made significant progress with permitting.

Following the successful exploration programme at the Tulkubash project, we remain on track to start production in the second half of this year using heap leaching, rather than the CIL method we originally anticipated. Chaarat will benefit from the lower upfront investment and lower power requirements of heap leach processing, having identified both a significant amount of shallow material in the Tulkubash which is amenable to heap leaching and established the greater than expected open pit potential of the deposit.

Through our strict control of capital expenditure and the revised approach to production, the Company's cost of reaching production is going to be lower than we previously estimated. These savings have been mitigated by the effect of the changes in the new tax regime which have a negative effect of about $15 million on our cash flow prior to becoming net cash generative. The final revised requirement for working capital will be confirmed once we have completed our detailed work on the revised mine plan and operating budget. The Board remains confident that these funds will be available to us."

Project update

Background and development strategy

As a junior company with a large deposit capable of supporting a significant production base, the development strategy of the Company has attempted to strike a balance between raising funds to achieve the appropriate pace of development and shareholders' resulting dilution. Chaarat's management aims to unlock the value of the Chaarat deposit in stages by constructing a production facility, initially with limited capacity, which could be expanded as additional funding options became available such as by way of cash from operations, project finance or the introduction of a partner. Once in production, the execution risk profile of the project will have been decreased and raising additional funds or finding the partners to increase production capacity should be more straightforward and reflect a higher value for the Company.

The first stage development of the Tulkubash project involves the processing of low-sulphur clean ore. During the 2012 exploration season the Company identified that the open pit potential of the Tulkubash deposit was greater than previously estimated and, in addition, that the shallow material of the Tulkubash and Kiziltash deposits is amenable to processing by heap leaching.

Further drilling was therefore undertaken in the top layers of the Tulkubash and Kiziltash deposits to delineate the heap leachable material. In the Tulkubash deposit, it is estimated that approximately 2.7 Mt of resource at a grade of 2.06 g/t are suitable for heap leaching. The Tulkubash deposit is open towards the north so the Company considers that significantly more heap leachable material may be available.

In addition, potential heap leachable material in the Kiziltash section of the deposit has been identified. Metallurgical tests of this material are currently being conducted and initial results have been encouraging. If the results are confirmed, the open pit mineable heap leachable resource may increase by up to an additional 4.8Mt at a grade of 3.29 g/t.

Having established the feasibility of the heap leach processing method, theCompany has decided to commence operations by establishing a Heap Leach Plant (HLP), which has two major advantages over the originally planned conventional Carbon in Leach (CIL) plant; namely a lower capital cost and a reduced power requirement. The lower power requirement will reduce the cost of production while power is still supplied by diesel generators.

The production capacity will initially be constrained by the size of the mining fleet. In addition, the lower head grade caused by a lower cutoff grade and the lower recovery from a HLP operation means the Directors anticipate an initial production capacity of about 21,000 ounces of gold per year. However production capacity, which is effectively only a matter of upgrading the mining fleet, and some relatively minor modifications to the processing circuit, can be increased quickly and is expected to reach 50,000 ounces per annum during 2014. The Directors believe this number can be increased if the Kiziltash metallurgical work yields positive results.

The Company has already invested in the design of the proposed final layout of a CIL production facility capable of supporting production of approximately 200,000 ounces of gold per annum. As far as possible, elements of the HLP will be located in their final location, within the envelope of the full size plant, so as to allow the expansion plan to be implemented as smoothly as possible and to avoid unnecessary expenditure.

Work will continue in parallel with production to develop the configuration of the entire Chaarat deposit. The optimisation of the plant configuration may result in some changes to the plant design. However the general layout and design of the plant is considered to be flexible enough to allow the incorporation of any resulting changes.

Infrastructure

During 2012 the access road to the project was brought to the necessary operational standard. The road comprises three parts: the Chatkal flats, the Eastern slope and the Western slope. The Chatkal flats and the Western slope sections will be required throughout the life of the project and have been completed to a high standard. The Eastern slope section will be abandoned within a couple of years when a new route will replace the existing one. Accordingly, this section of the road has been reworked but at a minimal cost. The replacement Eastern slope section is being designed and the Company plans to build it as soon as practicable from a permitting as well as financial perspective.

Following agreement with the national power company, and as announced on 19 November 2012, the Company has retained Xinjiang Electric Power Design Institute to design a connection from the Company's site to the grid. Survey and geotechnical works are complete and currently the final desk work is in progress. Once permitting and land allocation are finalised the Company will review its financial options for construction of the line.

Construction of the bridge over the Sandalash River and the operational roads has been suspended for the winter and will be finished in the spring of 2013. All necessary materials and equipment have been delivered to site. Upgrading of the operational roads can take place as necessary during mining operations.

The temporary camp and workshop are in place as is the mining fleet for the first stage of mining. The drill-blast rigs and excavators are expected to arrive in the country before the beginning of the operational season.

The mine design for the initial Tulkubash production has been completed and is now in the process of regulatory 'expertise' and submission to the relevant Kyrgyz authorities for permitting.

Good progress has been made by BGRIMM (a Chinese institute) with the completion of the draft design of the HLP expected at the end of March. This will then be submitted for approval by the Kyrgyz authorities after adaptation for local requirements.

Funding

The Company has previously referred to its intention to raise a working capital facility of $20 million to cover initial mining costs.

Savings have been identified from the original project budget as the capital required to build a HLP is lower than a CIL plant and Chaarat also identified savings in the construction of the access road to the site.

However there have been unforeseen increases in other costs, which offset the savings in capital expenditure. The principal increase in costs arises from the change in the Kyrgyz tax regime. Tax payments are now accelerated as they are revenue based rather than profit based. An unbudgeted payment of tax was also due on the registration of the Kiziltash project resource with the Kyrgyz Government.

The working capital requirement has been reduced as the operating costs of a HLP are lower than a CIL plant (mainly due to the lower power requirement). The final working capital requirement will be confirmed once work on the operating budget and revised mine plan has been completed.

If the initial encouraging results of the Kiziltash testing are confirmed, the potential to further increase production capacity from heap leaching will have been established. The size of the mining fleet will be a constraint on the Company's ability to achieve increased production capacity.

Chaarat continues to review a number of options to provide further funding and will, in due course, select the one which is in the best interests of shareholders.

Increased Resource

Minimal exploration drilling was conducted during 2012 as drilling focused on ensuring the high quality resource and reserve definition of the Tulkubash project. The limited strike extension drilling in the Tulkubash and the drilling to ensure the existence of shallow resource in the Main Zone suitable for heap leach has resulted in an increase in the JORC compliant resource (estimate compiled by the Company) of Chaarat to 5.76 million ounces, an increase of 3% from the 5.59 million ounces announced on 5 March 2012. The grade has reduced slightly to 4.03 g/t from 4.08 g/t.
