Sounds like another funding round - friends and family? or open offer?

Half year results ,
met with total apathy from the gamblers.

Not surprising - another £251 lost and more "additions to intangibles"

Roll on another year of massive losses and mugs dipping their hands in their pockets to fund the narrative.

Hi TBTT - that would be rather good wouldn't it. So would a return to Marsfontein. So would some nice drill results from KX36 (can't be long now?). Oh and/or confirm of that JV in Botswana. And how about finding some easy big coloured stones in Eswatini, I gather they are already up there looking as we speak.
All of those and that broker's suggestion of 4-6p could come true! (Not holding my breath just yet mind you!)

Go on, BOD, surprise us with the news that you've finally obtained the mining licence for Thorny River. That would set the cat amongst the pigeons!

I see that BOD has something in common with Petra Diamonds.....

They are losing lots of money too.

As per JCs post on Linked In. Gives a flavour of the long timelines, the level of expertise that BOD has and the phenomenal return to patient shareholders taking AFD from c2p to c52p.

No doubt JC and the team have learnt a lot since then and exploration technology has moved on significantly.

"good news, of course, is that BOD has no debts and very low overheads"


Just keep telling yourself that ...

How about reading the accounts instead ?

Last full year accounts to June 23

"Administrative expenses £ (566,935)" before the latest pay rises no doubt (after all inflation ! ).

Cumulative losses £ (10,424,780) after having written off (a mistake?) £3.1m in the year...

Just raising cash for the operating expenses - surely now even higher given a new JV and more miles to cover....
would be circa 150million shares another massive dilution for anyone who bought a couple of years ago....

That leaves nothing for actually doing any projects .. which may not matter much.

Hi Perroverde!
I agree that the really big upside is in Botswana.
But how do BOD get the money to explore in Botswana except by ploughing the profits from Thorny River into exploration and development there?
Share placements can only raise tiny "keep the lights on" amounts of money. And it's hard to imagine any other diamond companies funding a JV in the current market.
So, if meaningful progress is to be made, I see the Thorny River licence as crucial.
The good news, of course, is that BOD has no debts and very low overheads, so there isn't a threat to the business, as such. But I'm not enthusiastic about just waiting out the current slump in diamond prices!
Oh well...

I asked JC at the AGM about the water licence and would there be Rns on it he said no when the whole licence is approved there would be an RNS he said basically that elections this year and government will want to pull there finger out and create jobs so the vibe i got its all done just need the authorities to sign off but as we all know these simple tasks prove very difficult for foreign regimes

Hi TBTT, 799 et al, good to see you guys still around this parish. For my own part I’m happy to see things like the Eswatini deal actually finally happening, but agree with TBTT that it’s now time to aee something more concrete on monetising some or all of these very valuable assets. It seems to me that the RSA ‘regime’ is too corrupt, too flaky to pin the corpoate mast to (though a water permit to finally mine TR would of course be a major milestone. It’s Botswana/The Kalahari itself which now interests me most, so I sincerely hope that James, no doubt in good faith, hasn’t pointed BOD down a trail beset and chronically frustrated by governmental red tape in its gestation Botswana may be streets ahead of other African states in its governance and credibility, but it’s still Africa…. We shall see - and I simcerely hope I’m proven wrong - in the coming weeks and months!

I trust JC is doing all he can to manage the situation without rattling too many people.

Shame it takes so long but I guess it comes with the territory. Doesn’t do much for encouraging investment…

Looking forward to the day the water licence approval RNS comes out…


In the meantime, I’ll keep an eye out for those curve ball announcements which were lacking during 2023.

At the Bod AGM we were told the Diamond price should recover circa 10% in Feb production would restart again at Mars and yes funds from TH would be used to develope
other projects they said should give us an update in 3 or 4 weeks that was 2 weeks ago they would provide results of other drilling sites in Botswana

Hi TBTT

Good to see you still here.

Agree re the TR license that is long overdue. I wonder however if the granting of the license would in fact act as a catalyst to crack on, or if diamond prices are the deciding factor?

Having spent too many hours researching it I’m confident that lab grown will find its own place and that natural prices will recover, but how long this might take is anyone’s guess.

Continuing to hold in any case as my faith in JC remains 😊

For me, the key is the granting of the Thorny River mining licence - now more than a year overdue.
This would fairly quickly provide the revenue to exploit the other exploration and development opportunities that BOD are accumulating. Without it, where does the money come from? Not from equity raises to be sure, because BOD just can't raise that much money by issuing more shares.
So let's hope that is what James Campbell is mostly working on. The delay is ridiculous for a simple licence that he assured shareholders was "easy".

I do think things are coming together nicely for BOD. James has had success before and I believe he will again, only this time it's highly likely by becoming an operator.Across the Clontarf stable BOD is the one operation with assets that have a real chance of delivering shareholder value, and it's being run by someone on the ground actually working (followed by Clon for it's link up with Next-ChemX, forget Ghana and Australia IMO, then PET which has always been a pure gamble, et Al.).The only niggle for BOD is the backdrop of depressed diamond prices - although yellows are highly valued so, for me, this announcement is very welcome.
