Someone appears to be dumping stock?

[holdingtight] 03/12/2020 10:32

I nearly ditched these when diamond prices plummeted, but I held and after recent news I topped up.I'm pretty sure this is going places - multiple pennies minimum and I'm happy to hold - and as a bonus, there's even the chance of another AFD scenario.

Once resources and estimates from Thorny and KX36 are done it will provide a platform of what next. I've waited this long since BOD was established, money in the account and just wait now no rush just holding on til big announcement from JC and JT. Then hopefully news on maiwbe it already has its estimates I think with Vutomi or sunland. A lot going on in the kalahari region new high tech being used cant go wrong.

When S V S went under , they held a lot of shares in various companies including Bods. These have been sold to the market over the past month by the company that bought these shares at a bargain price. I believe most of their holding in Bods has been sold, I could be a bit premature but its what I believe?

I'd like to think I don't vent very often but for the life of me I cannot understand the behaviour of the share price The recent news flow has been excellent and yet no decent movement in price. Very frustrating for us all but I'm now thinking of selling once I break even at 0.9

happy to hear peoples thoughts

JT once said in an interview with diamondloupe, JT: Thorny River is either commercial or not. We will know in a month. We think we can set up a low-cost plant there for $15 million, but it is the licenses that are difficult; water permits in particular are a big issue. That takes time. But Klipspringer has them [it has an existing plant, 10km by road from Thorny River, 4km as the crow flies]. If we can use Klipspringer's plant, and if the decision is made to go ahead, it would be 18 months to production. Logically, we would bring those goods to Antwerp.https://www.thediamondloupe.com/mining-and-exploration/2018-05-25/%E2%80%9Ci-want-be-producer%E2%80%9D-interview-john-teeling

Who the hell is selling these.

As I understand there are only two Group II kimberlites in Botswana: KX36 and one of the Maibwe kimberlites. South Africa is replete with Group II kimberlites including many mines. The exploration for Group II kimberlites represent...https://t.co/wufzSWOI18 https://t.co/rV76SweNFnFrom JC Twitter.

Underwhelming close, but if sellers took a profit, then fair play to them.

[markfrankie] 02/12/2020 13:25

Ps, I still have my free-float here from afd, and a few other bits

[markfrankie] 02/12/2020 13:24

Hi thecynical1, nice to see currypasty and yourself here, the good old days are coming back ..
All the best, mf

[thecynical1] 02/12/2020 12:55

Hi markfrankie! Hope you are stocked up here? Sooner or later, this has to blow......jmo

[markfrankie] 02/12/2020 12:46

the team proved up and sold the KAROWE mine in botswanna, it produces the biggest best diamonds in the world, the team are due another bit of luck in the guise of BOD this time.
best of lucK everyone

[markfrankie] 02/12/2020 12:13

ive just had a little £1k+ top up,

[holdingtight] 02/12/2020 11:43

Bit of profit taking... I was a bit hasty with the top up, still, it won't matter soon I reckon. They have so many targets to go at, and such a low market cap. Price can't sit this low for long. And now that people can move about again over there I think we could see some rapid development and a steady flow of news.Good luck all.

[georgeo1] 02/12/2020 10:26

We have enough data to construct a preliminary 3D model of the resource and to estimate kimberlite volumes. Following this we will perform core drilling to confirm the precise geology and kimberlite profile.With the drill bits from Petra diamonds used on AK6. See the Twitter

[talkman2] 02/12/2020 10:16

I’ve bought over 1 million this morning to add to my position. Lots of other good things also happening in the company .

The potential of today’s news is massive given the current market cap of the company . The odds look good .

[thecynical1] 02/12/2020 10:13

Hi Curry! I have lost track of what my average is......🤣
29315;🤣315;🤣....

Having said that, this could go anywhere from here so I am not sure that whether the average is 1 or 2 is going to make any difference if they really come up with the goods again....😎😎😎

[georgeo1] 02/12/2020 10:10

Currys been around since AFD and AFG. Good man still about.

[holdingtight] 02/12/2020 10:09

I've topped up.Another AFD in the making, perhaps much bigger.

[currypasty] 02/12/2020 10:08

morning tc1, well there are large periods of time where its best just to file away, and wait.. Ive added a few this morning as I think this is great news, albeit lots of work still to do... I think that's brought my average down to about 2p now...lol

[thecynical1] 02/12/2020 10:05

Good morning! Are we about to see this explode???? Says he optimistically.....

Btw - good to see you back on here Curry!!!!!

[georgeo1] 02/12/2020 10:03

Based on diamond value back then to today's prices due to lockdown.
