ok, so what does this trading halt mean?, page-7

Maso 1

The sea based tenements have been granted and GOT are first in line once Winchelsea and Connection come out of moratorium in five years time- fact. With the islands I'm prepared to punt big time that they'll be rebuffed again in five years (opinion).

There's no go ahead for mapping on the sea based tenements as yet, and GOT's applications, if in fact they do re-apply, will be challenged- facts. The road to drilling is fraught with difficulties...mining more so (my opinion and the opinion of some others posting on HC).

The road ahead for GOT's "Groote Project" is uncertain, and I suggest a very, very bumpy one. Again, an opinion, and one shared by some other posters.

It might be a game for you but this was never a game for me and certainly not the TO's...they have it very much on record that they see themselves as fighting against cultural annihalation (fact, and here I mean that it's a fact that they've placed that on the public record...whether others see GR's Groote Project as cultural annihalation is up to them).

Maso 1, why are you personalising this? You are on record as saying there's two sides to every story, but you appear to get highly agitated when an opinion other than yours is articulated.

If the GOT stock is resiliant surely this lone voice on this forum is no great threat. The "risks" re the Groote Project were articulated at the outset (in Proactive Investors for one), that they actually exist in a very profound form shouldn't come as a surprise.

Why don't we just "play the ball and not the man"?

If GOT's new acquisition is one benign in terms of the seascape west of Groote good luck to you and other share holders, I hope you all make a million bucks. If the opposite is the case I'll probably be posting on here until I'm six foot under.
