Yes very undervalued

Yes very undervalued

Yes Spights , a Blk rise of 8% looks very good until you consider that it was $1.20 AUD less than a year ago. Even last month it was a lot more.

Yes same here
Just waiting for a reply to allow me access

I have a problem accessing specific parts of the Blackham Resources site.
"Wordfence" locks me out. Does anyone else have this problem?

Interim results should be out in 3 weeks. Maybe some news on new investments?.....There's no appetite for polo shares just now in the market, despite the resurgence in small resource stocks. If Tang can't produce results he should depart.....

Dreadful update from Weatherly today - The only people who will ever get a return from their investment is Orion - Polo have lost the lot.
A shocking investment made by Tang, lets not forget that when looking at his track record.

Bought my first tranch in January 2009, still holding.

Paleje good viewpoint

Acamas. I agree with you
The share price is trading at a. ridiculous price
I have been here before with other shares I held
Which I sold only to see them go up 10 fold
This time I am holding until the end
My target has always been. 80p-£1

Good Luck .We Will have our rewards

No need to convince me on lithium, spights, I know demand will be there...but the price will only remain high while it exceeds supply. I read a detailed article a few weeks ago by an American analyst, I can't re-find it, suggesting that large scale production would kick in very quickly when demand gets closer.

Also a little extract from a shareprophets article:-

"It is a common myth amongst many private investors that lithium is somehow rare – but to put that into context it is currently estimated that there is enough lithium in the ground to meet demand for the next 431 years, as compared to 39 years for copper and just 15 years for zinc, and although estimate vary wildly for oil and gas most are for less than 150 years." - See more at:

Not being contentious just putting another viewpoint.

[acamas] 16/2/2017 11:41

spights,

Thanks for all your efforts. The point that irks me is that you list Blackman through to Ironstone taking in those other companies in our portfolio all great potential but our share price refuses to reflect this potential. I can recall when this share price was 52p in Dattels time at the helm and Simon Thompson(IC) was talking it up as a possible £1 a share plus.

As you are aware I have been here at least 5 years and all that time it has been jam tomorrow. What will change that this year?

Ironstone Resources
Lithium Carbonate and Performance Elements for Electronics and Electric Car Batteries

Extracting minerals from oil-field waters to produce eco-friendly products is a very appealing concept, especially in todays march to meet the highest of environmental sustainability objectives. Devonian formation waters associated with producing oil and gas wells in parts of Alberta contain up to 140 mg/L lithium, a significant concentration, considering the average values of lithium in Alberta formation waters are 10 mg/L, based on approximately 1,500 analyses. The high-lithium brines also contain appreciable concentrations of potassium (up to 8000 mg/L), boron (up to 270 mg/L) and bromine (up to 410 mg/L). Ironstone's southern Clear Hills permits have also tested relatively high concentrations of lithium and related performance elements (LPE).

Ironstone has commenced a multi-facetted development program to determine the engineering and economic viability of pre-concentrating the relatively shallow Devonian-bearing LPE brine to meet the objectives of building and operating a commercial multi-commodity extraction plant. The company has identified the key pre-concentration technology that would fulfill its commercialization objectives, and has been in discussions with a strategic multi-national company that has been deploying its extractive technology across the globe.

Today, lithium that is typically recovered from South American brine deposits requires above-ground “refining̶1; in evaporation or salar ponds, taking up to 18 months from extraction to a commercial product. The key to commercializing Alberta's lithium-bearing brines, where use of evaporation ponds is untenable, is to source or develop innovative technology to rapidly pre-concentrate the valuable commodities at which time they can be economically extracted using commercially available extractive technology.

A Plethora of Lithium Applications

Lithium is the lightest solid metal that is highly reactive, malleable, and a good conductor of heat and electricity. These properties contribute to its widely varying application, including:

in the medical industry as a mood-stabilizer, bipolar disorder treatment, and preventing Alzheimer’s disease
batteries and telecommunications
as chemical desiccants, or for polymerization and organic synthesis
in general engineering for high-temperature lubricants and soaps, for fluxes for welding and soldering, and for CO2 scale prevention
in high strength-to-weight alloys for high-performance automotive and aircraft parts
in the optics industry for focal lenses, and infrared and ultraviolet applications
as propellants in rocket engines
for fusion material in nuclear power plants and weapons
as a substitute for environmentally-unfriendly elements such as fluorine
The unique properties of lithium ideally position it for portable energy storage applications that will be a key enabler of the electric car revolution and replace gasoline as the primary source of transportation fuel.

Automobile manufacturers are now mass-producing electrical vehicles. Lithium-ion batteries represent a viable lightweight, durable power source for eco-friendly vehicles. Subsequent demand has caused lithium commodity prices to surge and introduced speculation about whether sufficient volumes of lithium are available to sustain global Li- ion battery production.

The Transportation Market to Drive Lithium Demand

According to Goldman Sachs, the greatest opportunity for lithium-based batteries lies ahead in the form of transportation applications. In 2014 alone, more than 70 million cars were sold globally, providing an enormous available market for lithium-based batteries. A typical cell phone uses 5-7 grams of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) in its battery. A Tesla Model S with a 70kWh battery uses 63 kilograms – an equivalent content of more than 10,000 cell phones.

Lithium could be a key enabler of the electric car revolution and replace gasoline as the primary source of transportation fuel. Thanks to technology breakthroughs, favorable policy, and supportive public opinion, electric vehicles (EVs) appear poised for a sustained period of superior growth with Goldman Sachs estimating 22% EV penetration in 2025 from under 3% today. In 2014 alone, more than 70 million cars were sold globally, providing an enormous available market for lithium-based batteries. The core material that enables lithium-ion batteries to function is lithium.

According to Goldman Sachs:

EV adoption represents a huge and generally untapped market for lithium suppliers.
The greatest opportunity for lithium and lithium-ion batteries is yet to come in the form of multiple future transportation applications.
EV development could pave the way for further developments and demand, including electric trucks, trains and aeroplanes.
If EVs achieve a further 1% penetration of the global car market, it would increase lithium demand by 70,000 metric tonnes of LCE/year, or approximately half of current global demand for lithium.
Lithium demand for all EV applications could grow more than 11 times by 2025.
$150/kWh is the tipping point for broad commercialization. Goldman Sachs believe this is feasible by 2020.

Ironstone is poised to become one of the leading suppliers of vanadium pentoxide for use in advanced steels as a hardener, and in renewable energy storage applications. Ironstone's NI 43-101 compliant vanadium resource currently measures 2.45 billion pounds of vanadium pentoxide (557 million tonnes indicated at 0.21% V2O5) as reported by SRK Consulting (Canada) in July 2012.
