Emed Mining Share Discussion Threads

[wanderer1210_0] 09/10/2015 19:04

FWIWAL does not have the presence of a CEO. Look at Harry he could talk the hind legs off a donkey. Unfortunately the miners protest and the march to Seville supported by EMED at the time did not sit well with the Junta and put the final nail in Harry's coffin regarding permitting. It's also interesting now Traf have a foot hold Mr Esteves and his merry men have withdrawn from hinderance. Some good buying pressure today and hopefully will carry on come Monday, with 4p being paid. I'm going to do some PR this weekend and Tweet AL's presentation, you never know if a few of us do the same we will do a far better job than C4

For me have we had a better man at the helm in the past 7 years? I am happy with the progress he has made with PRT since he came on board. But like Football Managers all CEO's have a shelf life dependent on perceived success or failure and who decides that none other than the II's usually

Don't get me wrong Husbond I am a HUGE fan of his ability as Ops Director, and I think he has been under supported by the BOD. Hopefully this is about to change.
He never came on board to be CEO and so I feel for him having to step into a roll that just isn't his experience or forta.

I really hope we keep him as Ops Director so we can become the new Rio Tinto of the future but always remaining debt free!

Great weekend all and lets hope we can hold this price and build on it!

Nice article about the 3D seismic study of Rio Tinto mine. There is so much going on behind the scenes and if we are patient enough it will definitely pay off and some.

I'm confident that the news will start to flow and we will rise from the EMED ashes under our new name Alalaya.

Am I tripping or has our share price risen today. :-)

Good luck all and have a great weekend.

is that Al finally buying some shares on TSX do you think, the smart more would be to buy after the name change so we have some nice news showing confidence.

[husbod] 09/10/2015 15:46

Another of those 500k buys

[mds2028] 09/10/2015 15:39

BECAUSE IT WAS A TRUE STATEMENT THAT ISN'T RAMPING OR TRYING TO REPRESENT A FALSE HOOD.

interesting to see even LP see's AL has failed as CEO and wont last.
If I only I bet on the survival of CEO instead of investing into the companies I could make a fortune LOL.

it will be an interesting test to see who holds onto their shares and how many bail as the share price builds momentum towards an announcement of resources and production.
I struggle to believe that such announcements will be as LP has tried to potentially mislead (as per his track record) being January.
However I think too many have been tested that to receive no update before the end of the year will see us retrace as people reflect on their portfolio's and the quality of the companies they hold for 2016, EMED has November and December to show its is a changed company under Antalya and not just an expensive name change with a new expensive city PR company (who have already started with failings in what they have done)

First production was the end of July, beginning of November as a production statement wouldn't be unreasonable for a communicative professional company. Including a statement of what the strategy is actually going to be for resources and clarity on when / what is going to be communicated that was known in May

someone is buying on the TSX

"This is what the 'players' on aim do frequently: "Look at our drill results, 4m @ 1.1% etc, etc" whilst they continue to draw their salaries."

Let's consolidate the shares, let's rename the company. Same BS.

[lucky punter] 09/10/2015 14:47

moan moan moan. What an idiot

[frogkid] 09/10/2015 14:42

Yep, he certainly has increased shareholder value as is his remit.

[lucky punter] 09/10/2015 13:46

Alberto is good for the restart but I doubt he will want to stick around for the long term. Right now he is doing an excellent job.

[superbobtaylor] 09/10/2015 13:38

Not bothered about the lack of minor RNS's being released just to encourage sentiment. This is what the 'players' on aim do frequently: "Look at our drill results, 4m @ 1.1% etc, etc" whilst they continue to draw their salaries.

What will move the price is when we release some results showing a profit. No need to worry about wording, subtlety of meaning etc just a big fat positive number in the profit column in black and white. Most of the rest is noise.

Not long to go now.

Bigbaddaz,

How long is a piece of string? What is a CEO's salary for a company that is a non producer with years of losses behind them. Whatever his salary I hope it reflects a 3rd tier payment reward because that is what we are right now Bournemouth of three years ago

[bigbaddaz] 09/10/2015 12:46

Good post Acamas, 53741, and reflects my sentiments.

I do agree with your post 53739, but like you I am here for Capital Gain and dividends and I feel there is the possibility a more suited CEO could get us there quicker.

Some may view this as being premature, but not all of us are immortal with a bottomless pit os cash adding on EVERY dip ;-)

By the way Acamas, post 53739, as Alberto was never employed as a CEO can we safely assume he isn't drawing the salary of one ! ;-)

[acamas] 09/10/2015 12:27

LP,

I am here for Capital Gain and dividends how that comes about I care little. If AL does a good job he stays if not he can walk into the sunset to be replaced by an improved CEO I would hope

[lucky punter] 09/10/2015 12:19

Acamas I am happy to have the good and the bad I am not too bothered about. I see little point in releasing news until it is in a presentable condition. I am never one to be premature but maybe for some that is just a way of life. As always very happy to wait.

[acamas] 09/10/2015 12:07

Lets face the facts he was never employed as a CEO it is like trying to convert a center half into a center forward. We must expect him to display weaknesses in his current position as he learns how to fit in to this role. imo

[bigbaddaz] 09/10/2015 12:02

LP, likewise I am very happy how well Alberto has done in restarting the mine, technically under budget (although there is still the Astor situation that should not be dismissed).

And as you say, very much ahead of schedule, Alberto has clearly done a great job on the operational side.

I am not particularly bothered that we have not had the resource update, although it would be nice, I again agree with you that all in good time.

However, I am bothered that our CEO publicly stated a resource update would be announced and within 2 weeks.

How ever you dress it up it is shocking that in such a small timeframe promised ( 2 weeks) that the promise was not fulfilled.

You can believe our BOD that the reason the resource update was not delivered was due to the TSX rules.

I do not doubt theses rules are in place and that is precisely my point. Why did Alberto make such a statement he could not deliver on !

It shows his lack of understanding of the TSX rules at the very least.

Not good, not very professional, and could effect sentiment towards the company.

Not the actions of a faultless CEO as you see him imo

[lucky punter] 09/10/2015 11:44

daz I am happy that he has restarted this mine well under budget and well ahead of schedule. I do not care about the resource update. I do not want them wasting money and time doing an interim desk top study. The numbers will be misleading and the whole exercise will be a waste of time and our money. I stated on this board that I would rather they wait.
Alberto was hoping to release the drill results and do the resource upgrade maths later but the TSX rules means that cannot happen. They can do it with exploration but not resource to reserve. They have to model all the costs and a pit, that is expensive and totally unnecessary just to hold weak shareholders hands. Stop trying to rush the process.

[bigbaddaz] 09/10/2015 11:40

Saint_B, I'm fine and still happy to hold Emed shares.

I very much believe in the potential and have been adding the past 12 months even though the performance of the share has been dire and communication very poor.

I like to think my posts are balanced and realistic to the 'current situation'.

I, like many other holders, see the potential. But to date our BOD has missed several opportunities to promote itself and tell the investing world of its achievements and fabulous milestones which have been reached.

If this continues and a new fresh professional PR strategry and approach is not adopted then I fear we will not see much of a return on our investments, no matter how good the potential is !

The neccesity of the constant desperate ramping by one particular poster indicates how poor the company communication currently is !

[frogkid] 09/10/2015 11:32

Bring back Harry, at least he made price go up !
