BOD probably gave surplus stock just waiting for the market to recover.

BOD has plenty of loose diamonds at Thorny and maiwbe so all in good hands when diamond economy lifts off.

BOD had their chance at Thorny River and blew it - if they could have obtained the mining permit in the time frame they promised (six months) then they would have made good money whilst diamond prices were still high.
It's too late now - diamond prices are down and (IMO) likely to keep falling and falling as lab diamonds take over the market. For my money, it's a huge and irreversible change in the market, upending 5,000 years of human history. If somebody invented a way to cheaply sieve gold out of seawater (which actually contains a fair amount of gold) the same thing would happen to gold as well.
Life has moved on leaving BOD behind.

"Subject to securing the necessary funding" - if they can dilute shareholders even further and make each share virtually worthless, thanks all existing shareholders for stumping up , but after all these years they still have no sales income since they are still spending and losing a fortune it depends entirely on more shareholders to pay to keep this going.....
but don't worry although they will try and milk some more cash soon (before xmas?) they will commence spending it long before any drilling starts - April 2025

I am not so sure that a director bash is completely fair, and that some credit does need to go the board for success in raising cash to keep the lights on. For a no. of reasons diamonds have a very negative perception so this raise must have been a seriously hard sell. Under the stewardship of Anglo De Beers has a lot to answer for in its loss of sight of its role as a market maker (it is a marketing co and not a mining one) with significant underinvestment in consumer marketing and research. Hopefully its new owners will repair this situation, when they emerge, but the process will take time and cost money. What will be needed is restoration of faith in source of goods (thru kimberley process etc) and shakeout of assocations of diamonds with gangsterism and money laundering etc. This all said bod is well placed to establish itself as a niche player in a good domain. It does puzzle me though as to why the board is not mitigating diamond risk with the introduction of another commodity (eg. Gold) from which may be brou stuff in Zimbabwe. The regulator in South Africa is in a bit of a shambles, but the SA licences will probably emerge in time. The delays are possibly working in bods favour given the current state of the diamond market.

All well and hope the same with you.

I got this message from James a couple of weeks ago

When we applied for the two Thorny River mining permits, the land was owned by the state. Late last year, ownership of the land was transferred to one of the tribes in the area which meant we had to re-start our community consultations from scratch. Sadly, this is the rate determining step in most mining applications around the world. However, we have made good progress with these consultations and can see light at the end of the tunnel.



Your point on diamond pricing is also well made. When we do get the licenses, whether we can operationalise them will depend on the diamond price at the time.



Hope this helps.



Many thanks & regards,



James

I've given up here - at least for now.
It's bad that BOD haven't been able to get the mining licence for Thorny River.
It's also bad that Anglo-American are looking to offload De Beers. They won't be looking to partner with anybody whilst that process is ongoing.
But what's worse is the steady decline in the value of mined "natural" diamonds (see Ziminsky Index). I wonder if the last ever diamond mine isn't already in operation, and there's no need for future exploration at all.
In short, I half expect De Beers to go the way of Kodak and lots of once other mighty companies rendered nearly worthless by technological change.

https://planetary-ai.space/newsClearly a long term project but at least in by way of partnering with the right organisation.Fit BOD, the most interesting aspect is the potential to find other minerals giving BOD a route to diversification, which given the state of diamond market, must be welcomed IMO.

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.
