Share of the nomination week ALTN Chart looks like it's about to break upwards and decent buying into Friday's close. PXC was a close 2nd. Mind you, only way is down for me after 70% last week ! 10-20% would be nice ODR

Just reminded myself that all our figures for this year are ased on a gold price of 1480, silver at 17 and copper at 5,800 (from memory). If gold averages 1700, that means we'll have after tax and profit share, about 10/12m more in cash than anticipated at the end of the year. One thing I will say about the board is that I'd trust them to spend it well.

You will be able to post AAZ at all time highs soon also.

Hi Brasso, Yes, looks like GDP have turned a corner lately, but it has taken them an awful long time. I used to be a holder when the share price was in double digits and they paid a maiden dividend. Things went south after that and I think I probably sold for a loss overall (can't remember exactly). I have kept a loose eye on it since, but there always seems to be some kind of issue that crops up just when things are looking good that curtails progress. They were producing a few million in profits over 10 years ago and should have built on the existing business to incrementally improve it, but instead wasted millions of dollars and time on a mine that has never been profitable and they can't seem to shift it. Not saying it is a bad investment, but the track record and my previous disappointment with the management of what appears to be a fairly straight forward business put me off re-investing.

Gold $1800. Copper at 1 year high. Silver not far off 1 year high.

When you start and build a company, it becomes 'your child'. You want to see it flourish and grow & nurture it such that it can continue to do so even without your involvement.You care passionately about the company and all the staff.Company managers with little or no equity, sell out.Owner / managers tend not to.Reza has a son to pass the reins on to.I'd be very surprised if Reza were to sell - he's still very much involved and keen to drive the business forwards.Quite a good pot of cash now and Gedabek as the corner-stone to lever off ... i believe we'll soon hear of the next steps forward in the growth of 'Anglo Asian' Mining Plc

[mad foetus] 12/7/2020 10:57

Actually, their ages and personal political connections make me suspect a takeover is likely at some point. They own 40% of the company and cashing in the chips must be tempting.

[thomas11] 12/7/2020 10:36

Bleepy - good information but if you add their ages in then you can forgive people who think that they may want to hand the reins over to someone else. This JV may just be the answer to get this share moving. GLA

For serious investors the covid test story is a non event. Brokers forecasting £1bn+ in profit and the stock is trading at a Prospective PER of about 0.2x ? That tells you the market is completely discounting it. I think the market is partly right. Too many short term traders are still in it for the covid story though. The real story is the cancer therapeutics which as a platform is worth $5bn+ IMO once they get into Phase I trials Bear in mind Ruane paid 120p having initiated conversations pre-covid. They are buying long term for cancer Therapeutics story

[droyden] 11/7/2020 22:40

ODR, I agree if there is not a positive result with the affirmer tests specifically it could be bad short term. If they can nail those tests then..

[onedayrodders] 11/7/2020 21:28

Not that close to AVCT, however, pre "Covid Bingo", their share price was range bound between 25-50p for the last several years ...and about 30p before the Covid related RNS dropped. So whilst not a 1 trick pony, to me surely that indicates the current share price is now heavily weighted towards Covid success.

[brasso3] 11/7/2020 20:58

KS I know you are a numbers man so you must admit the last year at GDP is looking fantastic. Bare in mind the market cap is only £9m. The operating profit for the last 9 months comes in at £3.3m. The rest of 2020 is obviously going to be higher with gold at $1800. The next FY (2021) should come in around £5m - £6m operating profit. GPL (operating profit) £843,000 (Q3) £3,444,000 (Q1 - Q3) Ghana Limited (operating profit) £210,000 (Q3) £358,000 (Q1 - Q3) Kilimapesa (Pty) Limited (operating profit) -£190,000 (Q3) -£485,000 (Q1 - Q3) Cash - £3,200,000 Debt - £1,523,000

AVCT drops to 113/115 then rebounds up, as cmb has said there was a good chunk of cash raised @ 120 by firms who will have alot more knowledge and resources than I. While at the moment there is a huge focus on the Cv19 tests, it's not a 1 trick pony.

[callmebwana] 11/7/2020 14:41

Good afternoon guys. Ah'AVCT is a high risk high reward share !! Now what about the fund raise of £48 Million? The Co only wanted £45 Million but ended up raising £48 Million ? Why ? The placing was way oversubscribed,now do we believe the II's were just throwing money at AVCT ? NO,they did their DD on AVCT and decided it was well worth the £1.20 a share investment. What about the Sequoia Fund ?? They have never invested in any other AIM Co before. They have been doing the DD on AVCT for the past 12 months or over. AVCTA's tech is a bio disruptive tech. It is totally different to normal bio Co. Remember me mentioning PRSM? A disruptive software tech Co. I think AVCT will be a very successful Co in the end, very similar to PRSM but bigger IMO. So I just thought I would put my half a penny's worth of thoughts. Fortune favours the brave. NAI of course. The stock market is a device for moving the wealth from the impatient to the patience(Warren Buffet):0). Have a good and a safe weekend. The Temperature is 41 degrees here today,so airconditner on and cold beers for me. ATB

[king suarez] 11/7/2020 12:52

I feel like the risk is diminishing at PTAL and now would be a good entry price to scale back in, if you wanted more oil exposure - oil price seems to have stabilised, production due to restart at PTAL soon and still around the placing price, where you'd expect a lot of the placing shares to have been churned (hence the price flat line?) by now.. I never know what to put in my 'analysis' posts really so if you have specific questions, please ask. I haven't given it great consideration as its currently a small position for me, but I think if they can get back to where they were (c10k bpd) with scope to increase to 20k bpd, then they look v undervalued given the netbacks achievable and demonstrated by the results so far. TXP, JSE and PTAL - I think a lot of investors are in all 3 as they appear to be good bets to me, for differing reasons.

[wanobi] 11/7/2020 12:13

many thanx for your post in regard to PTAL KS, much appreciated,,, its chart has flat-lined and will surely rise a lot when cv-19 is under control there,,, however, I'm finding the decision to buy back in a liitle tricky right now as I read reports etc,,, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-53150808 guess I should scale in next week, buy a quarter of what I'd like to own and wait... cheers Wan :-) free stock charts from uk.advfn.com

[king suarez] 11/7/2020 11:21

Yep, I'm aware of the risks in AVCT. Have a smaller position there than TXP, but just thought from a charting perspective it's interesting to see a similar wedge pattern formed - both following placings too. I am quite hopeful for AVCT success, but have/had more confidence in TXP. AVCT have more avenues for potential success, I guess, but TXP had/has perhaps better COS as you say.

KS, a word of caution if I may,, with TXP we were very, very sure the COS was high, previous drill results from the 50's, new techniques, great team etc etc,,, with AVCT, we really don't know if the LFT or the neutralising treatments will work, so it's much more 50/50 to me and the patterns above can break either way,,,, as the wedge gets tighter something comes along,,, an RNS,,, which will cause it to breakout up or down.... that's the main reason I downsized my position in AVCT to free carry... originally I invested for the cancer cure they're working on,,, but now I have no feel for how much of the current value/SP is made up of cv19 punters who'll bail at the first sign of failure on that front,,,, so it's all a bit tricky, hence still a punt in my view.... others will no doubt disagree with me and that's just fine, no problem :-) Cheers Wan :-)
