I would have expected that dump of 400,000 shares to cause a share movement.

I'll email Brett and tell him to stop mining the stuff"

-------------------------------------------------------

We aren't mining anything. We gave the mine away.

BSM is doing the mining.

We're waiting for our six months to be up.......and maybe a last minute "deal" that may salvage something......if we're lucky.



Brett's words 16th September RNS

".......As previously advised, the Board has been actively pursuing a number of corporate opportunities and is confident that it will be able to complete a transaction within six months of completion of the Divestment which provides the Company with the necessary compliance to maintain the trading of its ordinary shares on AIM.

Failing this, the Company's ordinary shares will be suspended from trading on AIM. "



It's been almost a year now since Barclays effectively suspended STGR shares from trading by only allowing over the phone trading.

Wonder what they got wind of.

"....Growing use of carbon fiber instead of steel in the automotive and aerospace industries in Europe is leading to increasing demand for graphite....."

Carbon fibre has nothing at all to do with mined graphite.

Looks like the writer hasn't bothered to do his research.

Did you write it?

Global Market Study on Graphite: Battery Segment To Witness Highest Growth by 2020NEWS PROVIDED BYReportBuyer Nov 14, 2016, 23:02 ETSHARE THIS ARTICLE LONDON, Nov. 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Over the last decade, use of graphite in batteries has increased significantly. In terms of weight, graphite is the second-largest component in lithium-ion batteries. Each lithium-ion battery requires 10 to 20 times more graphite than lithium. According to an independent research firm, in 2012, around 80% of graphite used in batteries was for lithium-ion batteries. There has been a steady increase in the use of lithium-ion batteries in the automobile industry. For instance, Tesla Motors, Inc., an automotive company based in the U.S., has announced plans to invest USD 5 billion in a new lithium-ion battery factory. This is expected to increase demand for natural graphite by up to 37% by 2020. The factory is expected to start production by 2017. Moreover, the rapid increase in the use of lithium-ion batteries in smartphones, laptops, tablets, portable media players, and power tools is expected to further drive the graphite market.Asia-Pacific is the largest market for graphite globally. Rise of technologically advanced applications of graphite in pebble-bed nuclear reactors, fuel cells, solar power systems, and automotive and aerospace industries is driving the graphite market in the Asia Pacific region. China and India are the major markets for graphite in the region. Rising demand for steel and other metals has increased the demand for graphite electrode in Asia Pacific. This, in turn, is driving the growth of the graphite market. China accounts for over 70% share of total graphite production in the world. According to China's Twelfth Five-Year Plan, the government plans to have around 5.0 million battery-electric vehicles plying on the roads by 2020. This is expected to increase demand for graphite in the Asia Pacific market during the forecast period. According to a research report, the sale of plug-in electric vehicles in North America is expected to rise at a CAGR of 30.0% from 2012 to 2020. The total sales of tablets in the U.S. market grew from 9.7 million in 2010 to 40.6 million in 2013. This growth in sales is expected to drive demand for lithium-ion batteries. Rising demand for electric vehicles and other electronic devices such as mobile, tablets, laptops, and cameras offers huge potential for the growth of the lithium-ion battery industry. This, in turn, is further expected to boost demand for graphite in North America. Europe is the second-largest graphite market in the world. Growing use of carbon fiber instead of steel in the automotive and aerospace industries in Europe is leading to increasing demand for graphite. Graphite is considered as a key material for green technology. Due to this fact, it is widely used in many applications for energy storage, photovoltaics, and in various electronic products.The Competitive Landscape section of the graphite market report includes benchmarking section which provides an insight on various companies operating in the graphite market based on measured and indicated graphite resources in million tons (Mt) and the grade of graphite in % Cg. Some of the major companies operating in the global graphite market are Triton Minerals Ltd., Lamboo Resources Limited, Mason Graphite, Focus Graphite Inc., Energizer Resources Inc., Northern Graphite Corporation, Alabama Graphite Corp., Flinders Resources Ltd., Syrah Resources Limited, SGL Carbon SE, GrafTech International Holdings Inc, Graphite India Limited, Nippon Graphite Industries, Co., Ltd., Asbury Graphite Mills, Inc, Showa Denko K.K., and Tokai Carbon Co.

There but for a well planned move by STGR and BSM directors over the last couple of years, goes us.

Stgr seems to have been flatlining since mid October.

Set up for a placing to go with the "good" news?

Better wait for the mates to bring their winnings from BSM, to the party.

Can't wait for Tirupati to start using us as a cash cow.

We still have our uses.

LSE Today 10:42"Lucky I put my 100k limit order in a few days ago, as soon as I realised and saw it triggered I put in a 550k order as well to see what happens. Get a sneaky feeling that last 150k trade was mine but lets see what happens, fingers crossed :) This could be stupid accumulation on my part or cheap accumulations.... only time will tell"

So the mine is good. The resource always was good, but it needed Bass money to complete optimisation of the concentrator. I don't know whether to be thankful that we have £8m+ share (in tranches) in a good mine or upset that the market wouldn't give Brett and Shishr credit as the new BOD to get the job done.Either way we have salvaged something and each positive development further increases the probability that we'll make all our tranches.EQUALLY importantly, IMO, it PROVES the technical ability of Stratmin engineering team, who are undertaking this tuning exercise for Bass Metals. And this knowledge will then transfer to the new JV mine and should give new investors here for the JV mine the confidence that mistakes of old Stratmin under now-departed directors will not be repeated under Brett and Shishr's watch.

"Bass Metals is paying Stratmin a total bid package in cash, shares and royalties valued at A$16.3 million."

Every time you post this, you deliberately miss out the magic words "up to".

About a third of your fantasy figure is royalties, which will likely amount to $100k to $150k per year. Enough to cover some expenses?

It will likely take years to amount to anything significant and decades to get near the "capped at £5m" figure. As you know full well.

It's all just part of the illuminati "smoke and mirrors" ramping service.

Bass Metals is paying Stratmin a total bid package in cash, shares and royalties valued at A$16.3 million. Thanks to the improved exchange rate this deal is now valued at £10 million ~5.7p. Bass metals is making great progress towards expansion, has A$7 million in the bank so is fully funded going ahead. Which means Stratmin will receive Bass share package worth A$8 million (tranche 2 and 3) within the next 12-18 months and royalties capped at A$5 million.Experienced Aussie Graphite investors are loving the Graphmada/Stratmin asset, closed. at 1.7c.Just visit the Bass metals bbhTTp://hotcopper.com.au/asx/bsmMarket caps 4 Nov, Bloomberg Bass......$20m ~£12.5m!!
