A new pump and dump operation

[lucyp00p] 01/9/2020 12:11

What happened?

[vatnabrekk] 10/8/2020 17:06

Or an RNS, even!

[sabre6] 10/8/2020 16:24

RSN would be even better

[friars3] 12/7/2020 19:16

an Rn would be nice

[friars3] 12/7/2020 19:16

is any one out there

[clarea] 01/7/2020 15:34

Mmmm not looking nice today spread is nigh on 20% and market makers will sell you nearly three times as much as they will buy volume nearly double the norm hopefully not bad news on the way re the possible financing.

[friars3] 28/6/2020 22:26

Is anyone out there

John,

Not original ;-)

2013 Pre-Feasability Study

"The 12MW smelter will provide significant near term revenue as well as deliver proof of concept ahead of commissioning of four 75MW smelters required to achieve the longer term one million ton production target... delivering one million tons per annum of pig iron and 9,670 tons of Ferro Vanadium ("FeV") production from 2019"

Those were the days.

As things stand we should meet the april 2021 production/cash generative position....Of the loans being arranged easily the most important here is the 14.5M required to start production.....I like the two parties involved here have no doubt this will take place......Phase 1 takes us through to this stage....Early production will centre around the Middleberg smelter Joberg ,a7.5MW smelter which will have to come out of mothballs and be re configured......Ironveld currently has 500K invested here......Phase 2 will involve building our own smelters.....I see 15MW smelters to start with instead of the original 1x 7.5 and 4x 15MW smelters originally planned.....
Investors still haven't woken up to the vast resource here......the HPI alone at 1000 dollars a ton with a minimum of 50 million tons is mind boggling......The Vanadium and Tantalum is just as impressive......No wonder Martin Eales is so excited...

Scientists develop low-cost, high power density vanadium flow battery stack

The development of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy is limited by their inherently random and intermittent nature. However, vanadium flow batteries (VFBs) comprise a cost- and energy-efficient, long-life energy storage technology that can store and smoothly output power from renewable energy sources.


The VFB energy storage system mainly comprises the stack, the electrolyte, and systems for pipeline, battery management and energy conversion. Among these components, the stack plays a crucial role. Therefore, increasing the stack's power density and reducing its cost will further accelerate the industrialization of VFB technology.

A research group led by Prof. Li Xianfeng from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a new generation of VFB stack technology that offers low cost and high power density. The group's test results showed stack energy efficiency exceeding 81%. The stack ran at a constant power of 30 kW and showed no capacity decay after 100 cycles.

"The stack assembly process was improved by applying weldable, porous ionic conductive membranes that we developed," said Prof. Li.

Laser welding technology was used in the stack assembly for the first time. It not only improved the reliability of the stack, but also achieved automation of the stack assembly, decreased the use of sealing materials, and reduced the cost of the stack.

"This new VFB stack technology not only maintains the high power density of conventional stacks, but also reduces total cost by 40% compared to conventional stacks," said Prof. Li.

The membranes used in conventional VFB stacks are mainly commercial perfluorosulfonic acid membranes characterized by high cost and relatively poor ion selectivity.

In contrast, the weldable, porous ionic conductive membranes adopted in this new generation of VFB stack technology can improve ionic selectivity and increase the capacity retention of the electrolyte. This type of membrane costs much less than perfluorosulfonic acid membranes.

Today's RNS looks very good although put back slightly all seems to be on course

[clarea] 11/6/2020 14:43

Agreed Underhill looking grim if doesn't go through and wouldn't want to be adding at this point with that level of dilution on the horizon.

[underhill2] 11/6/2020 12:34

Should the deal be approved it will involve a nearly 50% dilution for current shareholders. Not suprised to the muted reaction to todays RNS. I will continue to hold my current holding but wont be adding. Without this deal the future looks bleak.

News and no one cares...

Thanks for
info

John Wardle via Tracarta already has one of (if not) the largest shareholdings in Iron.

[friars3] 08/6/2020 23:12

GeoPark Colombia S.A.

John Harrison bough a few he has about 60000 sunk into ironveld and clarke around 150000 thousand Wardle surly has deep pockets might buy a few

[friars3] 08/6/2020 23:01

who bought Amer ?????

[clarea] 07/6/2020 15:25

They have indeed made big money on the Amer sale but maybe the question should be why haven't they put some of the sale proceeds into Iron since selling Amer

[ianguerin] 07/6/2020 07:55

Two of the major shareholders made significant cash in the AMER takeover a few months ago, so why don't they put their hands in their pockets for a couple of thousand?

[clarea] 05/6/2020 15:29

Anyone any idea how long the company can continue before additional funds are needed ?
Appreciate the joint venture being looked at but obviously that has now been pushed back before any signatures will be put to paper.

The 30th March rns says loan facilities agreed for £260k but I have no idea what the monthly cash burn rate is they lost 276k in the last report but not sure if that figure relates to six or twelve months but if 12 months then maybe 20-25k cash burn per month.

[ianguerin] 05/6/2020 05:28

Aaahhhh - Subsea Resources - what happened to all that gold ?
