OTT calme B, hope you got some cnr at 33, license got and moving nicely without coming gold price boost when metals brakes fail.

LME inventory`s for Nickel and Copper both continue to decline, but also the price follows same - very strange scenario, one would have thought quite the reverse - the price trending will change -.

Regarding AMC, I must admit to having this gut feeling that his 4p area that we seem to be stuck in recently will soon be left behind in the distance - a upward trend will shortly be the norm here - AIMOP.

01/08/2018 https://portamur.ru/news/detail/elektrifikatsiyu-bama-zakonchat-do-goda/The electrification of the BAM, as well as the Trans-Siberian Railway, will be completed by 2020. To this end, four new transmission lines with a voltage of 220 kV will be built in the Far East and seven substations will be reconstructed. Minister of the Russian Federation for the Development of the Far East Alexander Kozlov and Chairman of the Board of PJSC "FSK UES" Andrey Murov discussed issues of modernization and expansion of the main electric grid infrastructure in the Far Eastern regions.- The Far East today is a "big construction": existing production facilities are being modernized and expanded, new plants and enterprises are being launched, new Russian and foreign entrepreneurs with their ideas come to the region, and the social infrastructure in the centers of economic growth is being developed. All this is impossible without a qualitative modern energy component. First of all, the investor assesses the availability of reserves in the region's energy system capable of ensuring a stable energy supply for the future enterprise, the level of tariffs and tariff policy, the provision of a road network and other aspects necessary to launch new projects. Our task is to support the social and economic development of all the Far Eastern regions, to provide them with the modernization and construction of new power transmission networks that are needed in the near future and will be required in the future, "said Russian Minister for Far Eastern Development Alexander Kozlov.As Andrei Murov noted, over the past three years the company has invested more than 30 billion rubles in the development of the electric grid complex of the Far East and by 2020 will allocate at least 37.5 billion more for this purpose. The result should be the commissioning of a number of large nodal transformer substations, as well as the extension of the length of the main electric grids by 2,200 kilometers.As part of the current plans, PJSC "FGC UES" also creates all the necessary electric grid infrastructure of the territories of advanced development, the press service of the Ministry of National Economy of Russia informs.

O/T.
Today we see how big money can screw Pi's, Abramovich sells his mine to KAZ and then invests it all in KAZ !!! Then perhaps makes an offer for KAZ or make a lot of money invested in KAZ!
A lot of Pi's now making for the exit door in KAZ today.I am waiting for the dust to settle.Perhaps now the big boys can bid for KAZ they were looking to buy Copper mines.
LOL a lot of postings have been O/T. But it does have a bearing on AMC as well.NAI.

[callmebwana] 02/8/2018 12:39

Noloss, thank you for your input. You replied while I was typing.

Mad, be lazy,LOL. Don't blame you mate.Read my above post re Baimskaya.
Roman Abramovich.He gets around a bit. They the OLEG's know about AMC I am sure.
To think that AMC are trading around 4P.LOL.
Roll on the PFS.

[callmebwana] 02/8/2018 12:28

Peawacks,a lot of the big miners were touting to buy Copper mines, no one was selling.This was very recently. There was GLEN,RIO,BHP etc ready to buy.
EV's and a shortfall in Copper future supply. Copper and Nickel are going to be much in demand in the future years.

Only a certain amount at Baimskaya has been JORC'd. If you go to KAZ website you will see how big Baimskaya is going to be. Total investment to be over $5 Billions.
There is also information about road building by the Russian Government etc,etc.
KAZ are prepared to take a partner in this project as well.They have Chines partner already in one of their projects.Roman Abramovich hold a big stake in Baimskaya.
Perhaps some political games being played as well.
All i can conclude from this deal is that AMC will be taken out sometime by the likes of Abramovich, the Chinese or Norilisk.
KAZ is down today but it got to over £10 from £2. I am still in profit as I bought in cheap.I have also traded it a couple of times.
O/T. Check out ZIOC,PFG etc. There is money to be made with a bit of patience. I hold both.
I think the deal today has much in common with AMC's future. OIMO of course. DYOR.

[peawacks] 02/8/2018 12:14

Oleg Novachuk ? Is this the poisoned chalice ?

[peawacks] 02/8/2018 12:12

The payment will be a mixture of cash and shares and comprises an initial $675 million for a 75 percent stake and a deferred payment of $225 million for the remaining 25 percent once the deal is completed.

The seller is named as Aristus Holdings Ltd, a company owned and controlled by a consortium of investors including Roman Abramovich, owner of England’s Chelsea soccer club.

Kaz Minerals Chairman Oleg Novachuk said the acquisition marked “the next stage of the transformation of Kaz”.

[madengland_] 02/8/2018 12:03

Totally agree Nolos, the PFS is key to a big buyer/JV

[nolosstillsell] 02/8/2018 11:57

I agree that it is relevant. It would appear as though the PFS was completed at the very end of December 2016 into 2017 perhaps as far as I can tell. The it appears as though Norilsk were all over it like a rash but clearly decided against it. Perhaps this decision from Norilsk was more to do with the disagreements they have with Abromovich re Norilsk itself.

In my opinion it demonstrates the following..

1. AMC doesn't necessarily need a DFS to attract a buyer.
2. The Russian factor along with location (700km road to port for KAZ) does not mean a deal breaker as long as the economics stack up.
3. Funding is likely to be available for CAPEX ($5.5B for KAZ)
4. It won't just be us shareholders that have stood to attention and some potential buyers may realise they cant just sit back and wait.
5. The Russian government are serious about infrastructure support etc.

Its hard to believe that we sit here at 4p. Keep the faith. :)
