I've added a No. 4 to the Strategy. Rest is the same.

KEY EXTRACTS FROM THE RECENT PROACTIVE ARTICLE - 18th February 2021

VISION:

“Develop the company strategy to target a further ten-fold multiplication in market capitalisation within the next decade”

That means going from £50m to £500m

Kerim:- “I now see no obstacles to achieving our next target by 2030 and I encourage our shareholders to support this vision.”

STRATEGY:

Kerim draws attention to the “war chest” of the company of over £25mln, which he is planning to utilise in part to reward long-term shareholders with a substantial special dividend, with the remaining funds earmarked to develop the company strategy to target a further ten-fold multiplication in market capitalisation within the next decade.

Plans include:
Increasing gold production at Red Rabbit to 50,000 ozs p.a, as the joint venture expands it resource base and production capacity.
2. Tavsan mine to begin producing, with a feasibility study and its associated Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) to conclude in 2021. 
3. To be followed in a few years by the Salinbas project.
4. Developing interests in other jurisdictions and working up a strategy which will leverage the expertise and credibility of the Ariana team, built over many years, to advance new project opportunities.

Kerim says “focused on turning the possible into reality”.

We've got to help the Co. get this exciting message out there. At the moment few understand what we are about. Now we have clear guidance, albeit the strategy is still evolving. Just certain key aspects are in place , but there is going to be a lot more exciting elements to add to the mix. As Kerim says - they are developing interests in other jurisdictions and working up a strategy which will leverage the expertise and credibility of the Ariana team, built over many years, to advance new project opportunities.

And not forgetting the potentially huge amount of copper that is at Salinbas.
I think there has to be a case now for Ozaltin starting on the copper rich zones.

[plasybryn] 21/2/2021 14:47

Quarterly Update from AAU this week?

Lots of commentators seem very bullish on copper. Have we bought into our 50% of Venus Minerals at just the right time?

[parsons4] 21/2/2021 13:53

I agree with the posts that say buy both !!! BTC and GOLD or better still small mining companies in both. 20% or so of your investment funds in a combination of GOLD and BTC would be the only way to fight the collapse of Fiat currencies and stock markets worldwide IMHO

[jc2706] 21/2/2021 08:34

Alwaysevolving,

I don't disagree. I was just pointing out the broader perspective rather than the investment perspective. The fact is that Bitcoin has been irrelevant to the authorities for the last few years so why act? When Bitcoin is considered a systemic risk there are many levers that can be pulled to control it despite what the ideologues might think.

Just got an email from Twitter with that link at the top. Let's hope lots of other did too!

Jc2,

but don’t you wish you had bought a few a few years back?! I know I’m glad I did. Been way more profitable than gold but as Skara says above, the sensible option is to hold both. Even 1% of your net worth in BTC over the past few years (or months for that matter) would have proved a fantastic risk reward ratio.

[konil] 20/2/2021 11:40

plasybryn, without having facts to hand (published buy/sell stats are notoriously unreliable being based on mid-point and not accounting for price improvements) of course i cannot say for sure but imo with seller(s) seemingly operating for months perhaps the selling goes way beyond the estate holding and starvest holding, totalling 37m shares? so maybe we have those 2 but also one or more other big holders offloading. anyway just hoping that all will have finished soon.

either way, the story here is very strong so will just keep holding!

[plasybryn] 20/2/2021 09:15

Unfortunately or is it fortunately, we still seem to have our seller. Perhaps the Estate of the late Bruce Rowan as Biggles suggested. This just keeps the share price at absolute rock bottom value. Half our valuation is now in hard cash!!Friday is of course the General Meeting to move forward the mechanism to pay all shareholders a tasty special pay-out. Have you cast your vote?

[skara brae] 19/2/2021 23:37

Hedge, buy both.

It is pretty clear that Bitcoin is a speculative asset class. It is certainly not behaving as either money, a currency or a 'safe haven'. Ironically it is also highly manipulated. As you can use futures to trade Bitcoin there is little doubt that at some point it will become similarly controlled by the usual suspects.

I think to suggest that Bitcoin will take over the world whatever the world's central banks and regulatory authorities can do is naive in the extreme. It will not become the world currency. But I doubt whether it will go away any time soon. Why bother marginalizing it when it isn't a real problem yet? Gold has been managed for many years via the futures market and I see no reason why this will not be the case ultimately for Bitcoin should it be required. On a global scale it is just not particularly significant enough to warrant it. Yet.

Our seller is still with us. Good weekend all. General meeting next Friday

Slovenia has also tax regulation on kryptos, including some SEC stance on coins and tokens

[plasybryn] 19/2/2021 15:10

You say: Bitcoin cannot be regulated. I say Gibraltar already has,since 2018, the start of a regulatory framework.

[linz22] 19/2/2021 14:57

Yes, the blockchain is the ingenious technology that allows all this to happen.
It's the open source nature that is its brilliance, as well as its efficiency!

It works and is the future.
Another popular and well known poster on these gold boards is a huge advocate of the blockchain being used for market making in this game, and has often opined as to why we're so stuck with an antiquated and inefficient system that's so open to misuse.?

(I guess the answer to that's inherent in the question, then..!)

[plasybryn] 19/2/2021 14:37

You were saying Linz - January 2018Gibraltar this week became the first jurisdiction in the world to offer a regulatory framework for distributed ledger technology [DLT], paving the way for the Rock's drive into a fledgling but booming new area of business.Distributed ledge technology, also known as blockchain, is the technology that underpins cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin but has many potential other uses, particularly in financial services.

Bitcoin is a tradable entity end off, it's on a run now, was on a run in the past which ended in tears for many.

[soulsauce] 19/2/2021 14:25

Charles I admire your vociferousness towards the magic coin or mirage coin because is there really anything there.
But don't make the mistake of thinking things can't possibly happen because you have also been investing long enough to know that the seemingly impossible often does and I am sure it will be the small investor that is left holding the baby. Like I say I wish you well but it is not for me.

How can they regulate something that is outside of their control? They can regulate banks that conduit the finance to the exchanges where cryptos can be bought (the link from the individual's bank account to the crypto source) but in a few weeks we will see several large banks go down - so it is getting beyond that now. It is almost too late to regulate. We are in a crypto world
