Ann: Quarterly Activities Report, page-16

I agree as it is the only logical explanation. This company has always been upfront. Simon Finnis' response to one of the posters here the other day is another example. They have no bad news to report it seems. As a long term holder and watcher of this share bots have not been here until recently when the 1 and 2 share trades just started. So before the first boat stocked with ore leaves the price is suddenly volatile, pretty much for the first time. Something is fishy I agree, but I agree with Labmad, it looks more like manipulation than some bad news. Might be wrong but I doubt it. I remain a LT holder and will ride this out. The fundamentals have not changed and they are not getting my shares. I just wonder what motivates the sellers.
