Posted at 11/11/2012 03:15 by slimey2 Neg raid, thanks but no thanks, my plan is clear, im old enough a seasoned investor who has made a good living trading, and must add ugly enough to make my own choices, seen a few shells come back from the grave, but the quietness of this relist is a concern. |
Posted at 10/11/2012 19:08 by negotiated_raid Slimey2, you need to listen to LUFC5 as they are the words of a very wise investor. A T+3 would be settled by Thursday, just in time for a NEW RNS. Don't tell anyone though...;-) |
Posted at 26/10/2012 07:17 by dr jekyll LUFC5, would it be possible for you to change the header to reflect the new company or better still start a new thread? I was wondering if you could put in a list of the directors as well as those institutions/directoJust a suggestion if you have the time :) |
Posted at 24/10/2012 22:19 by negotiated_raid There's news on the Interactive Investor forum. |
Posted at 08/9/2012 23:19 by slimey2 honestly if anyone did go please help an investor out and give us the good or bad news |
Posted at 14/8/2012 09:27 by churnet99 n_r and PW73 - you both make some very good points, and I agree with the sentiments.Your points have got me thinking : it could be very useful to start a Rogues Gallery of those people/Directors who have encouraged investment in their companies, but then not created any apparent shareholder value. The intention would be to encourage other potential future investors to carry out more careful research before parting with their cash. I would like to start the list with : Nicholas Lee (former Director of CHC) Damian Conboy (former Director of CHC) Would you like to suggest any others ? |
Posted at 13/8/2012 16:30 by pwhite73 nrNot sure why you're having a go at Lizzie she is only the telephone/email mouth piece for about a thousand companies. Nowt to do with her. Your judgement of what this and 95% of companies on the AIM are is correct. They're just scams. Scams for directors to line their pockets on the pretext of returning shareholder value. The only revenue they ever get is from bucket shops off loading discounted placing shares to unsuspecting private investors. 90% of these companies in reality don't even fking exist. They are just paper exercises to meet regulatory filings. This company has had four names since 2005. Sweet China Trading Ltd, Sweet China Plc, Charles Street Capital and now Centurion Resources Plc. But the same trick is played over and over again. Suck in private investors money then disappear only to reappear again as another outfit. Having said all that they could have disappeared altogether and there is not a damn thing any one of us could have done about it. But they are making an attempt to return so we can salvage something from our losses at the expense of other investors even if its just a 10% return. |
Posted at 10/8/2012 05:51 by vauch The reason I ask is I rember reading this a couple of years ago.Noricum Gold (NMG) knows only too well the allure of this precious metal, having recently joined the rat pack of AIM-listed gold miners in search of a new discovery. But unlike the majority of its peers, who are spreading their wings across more exotic landscapes, Noricum has picked Austria as its gold mining Mecca. "There is a very active mining industry and pro-mining environment in what is a historically high-grade gold producing region," managing director Greg Kuenzel told Interactive Investor |
Posted at 02/8/2012 10:46 by dr rosso Official Motley Fool Guide to Promoting Mining Stocks. It can of course be quickly converted to promoting technology or biotech shares by deleting all geological references and replacing them with various technical words from the electronics or genomics industries.Rule Number 1 Make frequent press releases. The stock will move on what is called "news flow". Any time someone flies out to the exploration area, or peers down a microscope, tell the world. This is because ever shareholder knows in their bones that they shouldn't really be holding this stock. However, constant reassurances by a portly Chairman are known to deter investors from selling. Rule Number 2 When presenting on TV or to a massed group always take a large piece of rock or drill core and wave it around imperiously. Tell the audience that it is a very rare piece of vermiculated pyroxene gabbro. Don't let anyone touch it and never explain where it came from. Let them make the assumption that as you are holding the rock and you are talking about the company that the two are connected. The fact that it came from your garden is not relevant here. Rule No 3: Announce loudly that you are exploring/drilling/f Rule No 4. Make grand claims about how much gold, platinum, copper etc was produced in historical times by the Romans, Greeks, Egyptians, Incas, Chinese and so on. Make it clear that those bozos could never have got it all out and there is still plenty left for everyone. Rule No 5 Always include lots of pretty coloured geological maps in the annual report and presentations. For maximum effect draw lots of big bold lines and circles on them and call them trends. This impresses the hell out of people. Big maps in TV studios, or on small tables, are particularly effective as it implies the project is so large that it can't fit on a small map. Hopefully, no one will ask why you didn't bring a 1:500,000 scale map and not a 1:5,000 scale. Rule No 6 Photographs in the annual report of gold antiquities from the local museum add a totally spurious, but very persuasive layer of intellectual credibility to the project. Rule No 7 Always show photographs of planes and helicopters in the annual report. I don't know why, but everyone does. Rule No 8 Never show a photograph of a donkey in the annual report. This has associations with crooks form the American Wild West which is far too close to the truth. Rule No 9 Always show photographs of happy smiling natives. This gives the project a patina of benevolent third world development even if it is only the local mayor who will get rich. Rule No 10 Make all press releases highly technical with lots of long words and talk of drill hole numbers, intersections, grades and rock types. Do not include anything useful that could be used by anyone to make a proper analysis of the data. Rule No 11 Keep press releases firmly dedicated to technical issues. Never talk about detailed finances. Rule No 12 When talking about financial projections always talk about the project as a whole. Don't remind investors that their company only owns 15% of it. Rule No 13 Financial projections are based on the most optimistic metal prices you can find. But always label them "conservative" Rule No 14 All projections should be based on 100% extraction of the ore, and no losses of metal in the mill, smelter, refinery or your trouser pocket. Rule No 15 Remind investors that you are using the latest computer technology. They will assume that everyone else is using slide rules and haven't discovered PC based 3D modelling yet. Rule No 16 A good trick is to suggest that you have some technology up your sleeve that no one else has. The most plausible ones promise better recoveries or the ability to find metal that no one else can. The name of the technology should include some or all of these words: pyro, hydro, metallic, orthogonal, bio, techno, leach, molecular, sulphidic, oxide and bacterial. The word order is not important. Rule No 17 The board should include a couple of university lecturers or, even better, a Professor. They will be delighted to fly business class and have people listen to them while they talk about archean orogenies. The presence of academics is proven to increase the fund raising power of these companies by several times. Because academic pay is so low the non-exec compensation can be kept at a modest level. Rule No 18 On no account actually find anything or even worse, go into production. That removes all the upside potential of the company at a stroke. Rule No 19 Never forget that of the object of the company is to raise money for the benefit of the directors. It is not the aim of the company to find anything. That makes life far too complicated and the management might have to manage something. |
Posted at 01/8/2012 16:14 by dr jekyll Landau runs Range Resources and is a very smart guy. They have done exceptionally well as far as expanding is concerned. If he has been appointed then the advantages far outweigh any disadvantages imho. The publicity alone with regard to investors would be considerable. He is very well known as RRL (Range Resources) is very well known. |
