Ann: Quarterly Activities and Cashflow Report, page-250

I think you're on to something here.

I was following the stock from more of a distance back then and maybe it's coincidence but the changing of the guard from Alan Armstrong to Stephen Hunt and his eventual departure from the board definitely coincided with a change in price momentum and a reversal in the shareprice ever since.

I'd be interested to know what he's up to now and what he's going to do next because he certainly was ahead of the curve in backing the graphite sector at the right time. IMO its a shame that shareholders don't appear to have the same calibre of leadership now when the chips are down. Going over old announcements he actually bought stock in the market and came out with "directors notices" something we haven't seen from SH for some time and something we've never seen from Messers Vorster and Matthews to date.
