I know it’s a big ask but grow up Leewink.

It'll have to buy strong, too many waiting to off load after the time sat doing nothing. You can see it being highly sold into, people can't wait to get out, despite the ramp and bs ...

[yorgi] 12/5/2020 08:32

Certainly has Ianio 😊

[ianio5691] 12/5/2020 08:31

Its been a long time coming Yorgi :-)

[demonboy] 12/5/2020 08:31

There re back again. Lol.

[yorgi] 12/5/2020 08:28

I think that might be a little way off Ianio but it clearly looks like at last VAST is about to deliver.

[ianio5691] 12/5/2020 08:27

Look at the volume....169m!!!

And it not even 8.30 yet!

This is going to pop very soon.

[ianio5691] 12/5/2020 08:24

BP alone is a game changer when it goes into production - add to this the imminent diamond deal once lockdown is lifted and we will see the shareprice quickly hit AP's recent prediction of 1.4p... And then some!

[demonboy] 12/5/2020 08:21

Like right now.

[ianio5691] 12/5/2020 08:19

Ask rising on every purchase now.

Looks like all the sell on news brigade are out - this is about to take off!

Hold on to your hats everyone!

[charles clore] 12/5/2020 08:17

Time to top up perhaps?

[ianio5691] 12/5/2020 08:12

Once we go into production, which with the new equipment now on site is imminent, I don't think we will see these prices again...

Thank Goodness!

[ianio5691] 12/5/2020 08:11

Excellent results - and for once it would appear that AP has been bang on the money with his 'Aladdins Cave' claim.

It would be nice to see this ramp up in communication continue and lets get this show on the road!

[yorgi] 12/5/2020 07:59

After all this time it looks like Baita Plai is going to prove its value to VAST.

[carla1] 12/5/2020 07:58

Morning fellow investors It sure is a alladins cave All aboard

Vast Resources plc / Ticker: VAST / Index: AIM / Sector: Mining12 May 2020Vast Resources plc("Vast" or the "Company")Baita Plai Metallurgical Test Work UpdateVast Resources plc, the AIM-listed mining company, is pleased to update the market on progress on metallurgical test work at its Baita Plai Polymetallic Mine "Baita Plai" in Romania.Following the previous announcement regarding the drilling update made on 5th May 2020, the Company can confirm that two sample batches of three samples each were taken from the underground working areas in the Baita Plai mine which are currently accessible and represent the first areas to be brought back into production.Samples were taken by the on-mine geologists from the accessible orebody by means of hammers and chisels. The samples were bagged on site and transported to surface for recording before being dispatched by courier to Grinding Solutions in the UK for metallurgical test work. Each sample in a batch was approximately 100kg in mass.For each sample batch, it was attempted to obtain a copper – molybdenum sample, a high-grade copper sample, and lastly a representative polymetallic (copper, lead and zinc) sample.The first sample batch returned the following assay results as per Table 1.Table 1: Batch 1 Head Assay Results  Cu %Pb %Zn %Mo %*Au g/tAg g/tAs %Cd %Bi %Fe %S %Batch 10001 Sample Cu-Mo8.530.961.36 4.813260.230.020.464.554.62Batch 10002 Sample High Cu12.210.010.26 4.242270.010.010.327.028.93Batch 10003 Sample Poly10.850.020.20 4.672610.000.010.385.437.83Molybdenum results are outstanding from the laboratoryUpon receipt of the head assay results for the Batch 1 samples (1 – 3), it was felt that the head assay results may not be a fair representation of the expected grade ranges. As such, instructions were given to halt further test work on the Batch 1 sample, and that a second batch of samples be taken from underground and sent to Grinding Solutions. This was duly done with an instruction to minimise any possible preferential sampling.The second sample batch returned the following assay results as per Table 2.Table 2: Batch 2 Head Assay Results  Cu %Pb %Zn %Mo %*Au g/t*Ag g/t*As %Cd %Bi %*Fe %*S %*Batch 20004 Sample Cu-Mo7.090.360.32   0.070.01   Batch 20005 Sample High Cu10.741.123.80   0.380.04   Batch 20006 Sample Poly4.740.260.72   0.080.01   *Assay results for these elements are outstanding from the laboratoryThe flotation test work is to be carried out in a number of phases to produce three primary saleable concentrates, a copper concentrate, a lead concentrate and a zinc concentrate. A molybdenum concentrate is intended in the near future.Initial flotation test work has concentrated on producing a saleable copper concentrate with minimal deleterious elements which may reduce the overall value of the concentrate.Initial flotation tests on Batch 2 samples returned the following,Sample 4 produced a concentrate grading 26.6% copper at an 84.8% copper recoverySample 5 produced a concentrate grading 20.0% with a 94.6% copper recovery and a 92.5% molybdenum recovery.Sample 6 recovered a bulk concentrate grading 28% copper, 14% zinc and 2.8% lead with recoveries of 91% for copper, 94% for zinc, 83% for lead and 89% for molybdenum.Of great interest is the confirmation of the historical metallurgical results as derived from historical mine records. Specifically, for the copper concentrate, the historical recovery of copper into the copper concentrate for the period 1999 – 2009 was 85.5% with concentrate grading 28.2% copper.Of note also from the historical processing records, a gold flotation recovery of 75.9% and a silver flotation recovery of 47.3% was achieved into the copper concentrate. Processing records for gold and silver are present for the period 1999 – 2003 which indicate an average feed grade of 0.38g/t gold and 48.3g/t silver for this period.The higher gold and silver values reported in the head assays for sample 1 – 6 offer confirmation to the results from the underground sampling conducted in 2011 and 2012. These historic underground samples have not been used before in any of the Company's estimations as they have been unable to have their spatial position verified to an acceptable degree of certainty. These new results now provide Vast with increased insight into the expected gold and silver values in the working areas expected to commence production shortly and would substantially increase the value of the saleable copper concentrate.Test work by Grinding Solutions under the guidance of Minxcon based out in South Africa is continuing with the view to providing a cost effective and efficient means of producing the three independent concentrates, copper, lead and zinc.The Company is extremely pleased with the initial indications from the test work on producing the copper concentrate and so far, the grades are greater than originally forecasted. It is expected that the underground drilling currently underway will further confirm the continuation of similar grades at depth.The Company looks forward to providing updates on the continuing drilling and assay results over the next 4-6 weeks.Third Party VerificationThe information in this announcement that relates to the metallurgical test work is based on information compiled by Grinding Solutions Limited.  Grinding Solutions is an innovative and consultative company specialising in mineral liberation and separation.

Excellent RNS 😊

[carla1] 12/5/2020 07:48

Wow it isa Aladdin's cave...All aboard

There's no tracks just locomotive must be good news, tracks must be in good shape.

[32sam] 07/5/2020 16:10

Edit.. BP production kicking off..

[32sam] 07/5/2020 16:03

I don't think there will be missing parts...One hope's that the train does not have a missing wheel....lolLet's get ready for the ride, I reckon we will get an RNS for Zim agreement signed off within a week or so, there is no need for the government of Zim to dwaddle surely must see the benefit of mining for the economy toget going.Followed by BP kicking of production in Romania.GLSam
