how much is our gold in Kenya worth?

"research carried out suggested that the incidences of psychopathy among CEOs is about 4 percent"

That means that A. Bell esq. has 1 chance in 25 of being a psychopath. Now in all this confusion, I kinda lost count. I've got just one question:
ARE YOU FEELING LUCKY?



soulsauce 4463

"IVORY COAST
KENYA
COLOMBIA
GREENLAND
JUPITER MINES
RESOURCE STAR

how are things going to be paid for without further massive dilution and little or no chance of monetising any of the projects"


I might add: what happened to Chiwefwe: wasn't there a lot of manganese just lying around waiting to be picked up?

I suppose it is fair to be negative after RRR's fall from grace; namely 16p a share.

Life in mining is a gamble, and Sirius Resources ASX:SIR had a market cap a little more than Red Rock; 5c a share. They drilled at Nova in Western Australia, down to 300 metres depth and found nothing much. Cash was running out and they had no where to go next. The MD on speaking to the drillers heard they had a few weeks spare before moving on an got them to go back and drill deeper in a last chance coral story.

The outcome is now well known, they hit the highest nickel and copper grades ever found in Australia. The share price took off rising from 5c to 70c on first days trading and hitting a peak of $5.20 [now fallen back to $2.60]. Every bank was falling over themselves offering cash.

The CEO was close to going bust himself but is now in the top 20 richest mining persons in Australia. A Mr Creasy who owned 30% can now retire in luxury after originally buying Nova to find and sell parts from the rocket that landed there, a bit of a failure that turned out to be.

'Red Rock has applied for 3 licences in the Ivory Coast near the border of Ghana
under the project name Bettie - along trend from Newmont's 17Moz Ahafo Gold Mine'

Along trend means situated on the same gold belt. That doesn't appear to be true.
The acreage applied for is somewhere above the Cote D'Ivoire letters on this map;

My take on the RNS for what it's worth.

I am broadly neutral to bearish on the RNS (more on my reasons later) but astonished how folk have been taken in by GL. Like many other right thinking people I have always thought there was never a viable GL deal on the table and I have been vindicated.
For weeks now Bell has been talking down GL and conicidentally waited until the next project was in place before calling time on it.
After all the expense on that project we are left with a white elephant while he moves on to the next while no doubt keeping the gravy train running and issuing endless more shares using successive dilutions in whatever way he can find whether it screws shareholders or not in the hope that the markets will turn less bearish. Another huge gamble at shareholders expense IMO.

IVORY COAST
The Ivory Coast project looks like it might have some legs but very early stage and I refer shareholders to the length of time that Kenya has taken. And how is this going to be paid for? What are the plans for monetising it in a more timely fashion than Kenya or any other Bell quest.

KENYA
Ahh Kenya, suddenly back on the agenda but still a country mile away from providing any value. Must be the longest running project to nothing in the history of mining. Still wrapped up with the Kansai complications. I would think only those who believed in the GL deal would think we will ever see any tangible value from there.
I remember listening to Bell many years ago as to how things were going to be so easy there and how they could process the tailings with minimal outlay - lol!!

COLOMBIA
So Colombia is still producing decent amounts of gold and some degree of explo done but another 'preliminary' proposal has been received from a new buyer - hmmmm really!! Well Bell's credibilty has been so eroded by most right thinking people with regard to the fantasy GL deal that he must really get something from here. The more cynical of us would suggest it's time to raise money and a Colombia deal is every bit as much a fantasy as the GL deal. Hope i'm wrong.

GREENLAND
I echo what others have said on this matter and remain extremely cynical but will say no more or may find myself in trouble.

JUPITER MINES
Still the jewel in the crown of RRR and could yet be it's saviour. I honestly think that the company will be bought out at some stage and could provide a nice wad for the company.

RESOURCE STAR
Nothing to say really, just another unecessary distraction a drain on the company.

In conclusion I don't think is a bad thing for focus to turn to gold as it might just be the right time to do that. But the question remains how are things going to be paid for without further massive dilution and little or no chance of monetising any of the projects - answers on a post card.

There was a very interesting documentary on channel four a couple of months ago. The subject was psychopathy, research carried out suggested that the incidences of psychopathy among CEOs is about 4 percent, four times what it is in the population at large

Tolstoy-one of the worlds greatest novelists.

"I know that most men-not only those considered clever, but even those who are very clever, and capable of understanding most difficult scientific, mathematical, or philosophic problems-can very seldom discern even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as to oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions they have formed, perhaps with much difficulty-conclusions of which they are proud, which they have taught to others, and on which they have built their lives"

Francis Bacon-English philosopher, statesman, scientist

"The human understanding when it has once adopted an opinion ... draws all things else to support and agree with it. And though there be a greater number and weight of instances to be found on the other side, yet these it either neglects or despises, or else by some distinction sets aside or rejects"

Off to Aintree - Rocky Creek will run well hopefully.

The astonishing performance of Jupiter's Manganese mine has been the stand-out for us recently. This asset has historically been extremely important for us, and the price declined so greatly, that it is a relief to see true value beginning to show through."

The shares of JMS finished trading at 8.1c, down from a high of 87c, quite a plunge. That equates to about £1.23 million. If traded in Singapore I suspect a much higher rating, so this holding is a good fall back or backstop.

[bam bam rubble] 04/4/2014 23:53

Clarification on the debt would be useful, looks to be in the region of -£1.2 million.

The value of RRRs Jupiter holding is also about £1.2 million at the last traded price.
Pledged to YA in any case so restricted until debt is repaid. And if sold before 2016 20% of anything over about £1m will go to Cornhill clients under a Dec 2013 agreement.

[nash81] 04/4/2014 23:26

those who going to AB presentation in investor day tomorrow should query AB on these issues!!

[kezman01] 04/4/2014 23:10

Johndee, of course it will.

It's not like there is a need to raise funds in the foreseeable future what with the impending asset sales.
No need to raise funds for the good old "working capital"
No need to raise funds to bail out RSL
Kenya is obviously self funding.
Nope, luckily we've got the Ivory Coast to bail us out...stroke of luck eh?

I would imagine the savvy investors will be up brave and early Monday morning, fingers hovering over the buy button,,why wouldn't they.

[johndee] 04/4/2014 22:30

RRR share price will rise next week. Continuing from today's good rise.

[noirua] 04/4/2014 21:57

If things got difficult JMS have arrangements to sell shares, not £3.2m unfortunately. RRR still have a royalty over their iron ore tenements.

This area covering RRRs new tenement proposals looks a good gamble on success, maybe underestimated by us all:
The 'BETTIE' license application should not be sniffed at but should be applauded.

Onwards and upwards Red Rockers.

On Target,

Bell went to Eton - are you sure?

[on target] 04/4/2014 21:25

Must be something they teach you at Eton I reckon - that's why they all go into politics and banking (apart from Auntie Bettie who obviously didn't get the right grades).

[seagullsslimjim] 04/4/2014 21:21

Bell's bluff was called after it emerged yesterday that the other 30% was up for sale

If that hadn't been found by a poster then he would have strung people on and on whilst pulling in £4k a week.

If that makes a good CEO then i'd be a terrible one

Seriously though, how can some people feel comfortable in stringing others along and feeling no guilt.

Then again i guess when you've done it for so long and are narcistic then you have no emotion or inter personal skills left

[kezman01] 04/4/2014 20:28

Everything is perfectly healthy and normal in denial land, I see.

[dimmerginger] 04/4/2014 19:19

Btw. news today and issue next week anybody?

[dimmerginger] 04/4/2014 19:17

Always said greenland deal was never there. good on Bell to come clean and kinda tell the truth.

disaster for rrr in short term now and i would guess its a waste of time having your money in here. Always DYOR

[rrrrrrrrr2] 04/4/2014 19:07

I am still here. I am still confident it will happen. Just more time. Iron ore prices are bad. I am happy to wait.
