Posted at 15/10/2009 15:08 by ceckyspunt i need to keep away from shares i dont know about...i have an interest in another Ni play called AFE, who are years ahead of GPN, but they never have liquidity problems, and actually most shares dont... just these muppets! |
Posted at 15/10/2009 14:06 by spectoacc Cecky, bad luck - tiny NMS allows RSPs to bend you over on stocks like GPN.Long term, GPN will come good IMO - though long term we're all dead of course.. Whatever you do, don't "route to dealer" when it comes to selling again. |
Posted at 15/10/2009 13:56 by spectoacc Read my many posts over ages on this thread; currently flat, the MMs are particular mfs on GPN. |
Posted at 15/10/2009 13:24 by spectoacc Great news from GPN, though sold all my holding on the rise. Will buy back in when it drifts back again on no news.This is the biggest hidden gem on AIM IMO, look at the longer chart compared to every other smallcap miner. (Eg TMC, another Nickel play). But I can't deny they're probably still a number of years away from the sort of newsflow that'll take them back into the £'s. Good luck holders - I'll be back.. |
Posted at 15/10/2009 12:51 by safman TIDMGPN RNS Number : 8448A Gladstone Pacific Nickel Limited 15 October 2009 ? 15th October 2009 GLADSTONE PACIFIC NICKEL LTD ACN: 104 261 887 ("GPNL" or "the Company") GPNL Signs MOU for a Feasibility Study on the Development of a Heap Leach Project at Marlborough Gladstone Pacific Nickel Ltd announces the Company has today executed a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") for the development of a heap leach project at Marlborough ("MHLP" or the "Project") with China Tianchen Engineering Corp ("TCC"). The MOU is subject to a number of conditions including the satisfactory conclusion of a feasibility study, entering into an engineering procurement and construction contract with TCC, the identification of an equity partner and an offtake partner for the Project. The Marlborough ore resource, which is 100% owned by GPNL, has a JORC compliant resource of 71 million tonnes of laterite nickel ore at 0.91% nickel and 0.06% cobalt. The resource is based on only five of the thirteen deposits on the Marlborough tenements. The Company believes that there is sufficient ore resource at Marlborough for it to supply 100% of the feed for a standalone heap leach operation in addition to providing partial feed to the Company's proposed high pressure acid leach plant at Gladstone. The development of the MHLP would establish the Company as a nickel producer. The Directors believe that the Project has the potential to provide up to 24,600 tonnes/annum of contained nickel and 1,700 tonnes/annum of contained cobalt in intermediate product. Initially the product is expected to be sold to nickel refiners for further processing. The Company has undertaken four column tests (150mm wide and 4 m high) on the Marlborough ore. These tests indicate high extraction of between 75-88% Ni over a relatively short period of 165 days with sulphuric acid consumption of 300-550 kg/tonne of ore, which compares favorably to other proposed heap leach projects. Testing has shown extractions of up to 80% within 126 days with sulphuric acid consumption of 261 kg/tonne from areas which are likely to be mined early in the Project. TCC, formerly known as China Tianchen Chemical Engineering Corporation, was established in 1953 and is an engineering services company based in Tianjin, China. TCC is well placed to provide support for the project due to their involvement as the engineering, procurement and construction contractor for European Nickel PLC's project in Çaldag, Turkey which is expected to be the world's first commercial scale nickel laterite heap leach operation. Mr Henderson, the Company's Chairman, said "We are very pleased to be working with a company like TCC which is at the forefront of nickel heap leach engineering. TCC has a worldwide reputation for supply of chemical plants with particular expertise in building large scale acid plants as required for heap leach operations." Mr Henderson further added "The Company remains committed to the Gladstone Nickel Project, but delays to the project due to the global financial crisis have required the Company to pursue other value adding options. The heap leach project at Marlborough has valuable synergies with the Gladstone Nickel Project in that much of the infrastructure for the heap leach project could be utilised by the Gladstone Nickel Project at very little additional capital cost". Highlights of the MOU * TCC has confirmed it is prepared to provide a commercial offer for the turn key construction of the MHLP and will send its technical team to Australia to undertake an infrastructure and site review with the view to agreeing the scope of the Feasibility Study. * TCC will be commissioned by GPNL to undertake the Engineering Study ("ES") to a standard acceptable to Chinese banks and investors. * TCC and GPNL will set up a special team to finalise the commercial terms of the turn-key Engineering Procurement and Construction ("EPC") Agreement. The EPC offered by TCC shall be commercially competitive and provide guarantees for the construction price and process for the MHLP. * TCC will assist with a targeted debt financing of 70% of the Project which is expected to be provided through Chinese banks. * TCC will work with GPNL to secure funding or to identify potential strategic Chinese partners for the remaining equity funding required for the MHLP, and to arrange an off take agreement for the sale of MHLP nickel intermediate to China.

The Project has the potential to be one of the largest of its type in the world. In addition, the Company is seeking to develop a heap leach project at its 100% owned Marlborough deposits in Queensland, Australia.

Posted at 06/7/2009 10:22 by spectoacc 1k NMS is a total con, MMs can do what they like, as per the 35k at 22p I guess! A few more over-market trades now, inc 11.3k at 24p when offer was 20p.(Have to admit it's a prob with GPN - you can't buy when it's low, & likewise will prob be totally unable to sell when it hits a quid!). |
Posted at 06/7/2009 09:32 by spectoacc Does seem a bit odd; is 35x NMS I guess. Also GPN only valued at £11m; they've Oz$10m just in cash.Could only get a quote to sell not to buy, but sticking with what I have already here; feels like the endgame's some way off on GPN. |
Posted at 05/7/2009 11:00 by helpermonkey Rickwak - Does seem very strange. From background reading, it looks like they may have an interest in New Caledonia but i find it hard to follow. first there was the announcement that the deal with the chinese was being shelved, few days later Dr.Palmer buys the Yabulu plant (it doesnt say for how much but BHP are looking to write down £675m off the deal!). It was only last year that GNP was going to be bought at £2.20 - I am assuming the bid was from within Clive Palmers wider group?? This might be an interesting time to be a GPN holder |
Posted at 03/7/2009 13:03 by rikwak what is the implication of the news that clive palmer - biggest shareholder in GPN has bought the Yabulu plant off BHP Billiton?. BBG have it as newsworthy iten. Do GPN have a the title to assets in New Caledonia? Please let me know if you do i have watched this stock double and halve over the last 4 months. |
Posted at 14/6/2009 09:14 by spectoacc Pah wasn't here on Fri, looks like someone sold 15k at 5p (or poss 7p) under the bid and hammered it. 15,000 shares at 15p is £2,250!! Total madness, but it's so completely illiquid I guess the MMs have to tank it to generate buys.I'm a long-term long; compared to eg TMC, GPN's on a fractional valuation. Yes, they'll need either money or a partner to go into production, but the approvals are now in place and miners are back in vogue. It might take a year or more, but GPN is a 10-bagger on finding a partner. (If that sounds fanciful, it'd only take it back to last year's pre-approvals bid level). |
