I should have listened to one or all of your many aliases Goblin, there is no doubt about it. I'd be buying flat out at 23c today if I had. Ah well, thems the breaks. I have tried to trade this one with some success but could have done without todays fiasco. Still, I've been in and out since 8c so perhaps not such a blow. Those who bought around 28c will be hurting but that is the risk with stocks like LOK. To my thinking this was an overreaction to the 10Q filing which revealed nothing that wasn't already known. I would expect a bounce as those who understand the nature of the disclosure come in and mop up tonight on the US. Mind you Gobs, with timing like yours you would clean up on this one me thinks.

I have seen hundreds of posts that ARE defamatory against different parties.
My conscience is clear; I don't feel any remorse about what I posted. Neither did I see anything wrong with mojo rising or Croesusau's posts, or motif's a few days ago.
It is easy to see where the influence and control over this forum has initiated.
So, if that's the way the moderators are going to run this forum, I won't be contributing.

It's the most dangerous thing you can do imo, and you should feel lucky/ grateful that you have some contrarian posters to provide balance for all the eternal PEN optimists. But what would I know?

I'm in the same boat having traded PEN from time to time.
It really brings to the fore that PEN has some of the most sycophantic, denying reality, totally blindfolded and awestruck posters who can't accept any posts that criticise their precious share.
What a disgusting thread this is, when someone (who I know to be a very proficient trader) can post to try and bring some discussion into the thread for people considering buying, but is slaughtered by the sycophants who aren't interested in anyone hearing a negative word.
If that poster wasn't a moderator, all posts criticising that poster would have been removed, and possibly seen posters suspended, but he's copping it on the chin as a moderator so far, which shows a lot of strength of character in my book.
Shame on many of you.- *Removed* this post has been removed from public view

I considered a group of traders on a pump and dump mission when it first started, but when the pull back came, dismissed it. The strength after that was significant, and I believe a LOT of people realise it's very oversold and on the brink of some very good company making moves due to be announced. Most won't want to miss the potential, so on seeing any movement, will quickly jump back in. That's no pump and dump.- *Removed* this post has been removed from public view

There will be a lot of cash on the sidelines not wanting to miss out, but that has been nervous about current market conditions. Movement in stock price is enough to bring that money back in. Nothing to do with management, just investor psychology imo.

Do you have a 2.7 million deposit for a new home?
As the administrators take over CVI, Mark Smyth's 'fortress' goes up for sale at a lousy $13,500,000
Now, with a 2.7million deposit, and interest rate of 7.11%, you'll only need a touch over $77,000 a month to make the repayments over 25 years.
Feeling sick enough yet?
Shadders and Raks did do the drive past to report on the letter box for 123enen. I remember it well from just after the EGM days.
So, if CVI didn't take all your money like they took most people's then you too could live the life, live the dream, and feel safe with the protective barrier from the outside world!
Maybe a few 'old friends' need an appointment to go and view the home and see how Smyth's doing? Is the dementia well advanced yet? Any house guests? Malcolm Johnson, Anton Tarkanyi, excelsior perhaps?

Project Overview
Hastings Technology Metals Ltd (ASX: HAS) released a report on 4 September 2024, announcing the maiden niobium resource at its Yangibana Rare Earth and Niobium Project in Western Australia’s Gascoyne region. This milestone achievement was based on extensive drilling and metallurgical work at the Bald Hill and Simon’s Find deposits, highlighting the project's multi-commodity potential, which includes niobium, rare earth elements (REEs), zirconium, and hafnium.The Yangibana project now hosts an impressive niobium resource of 6.73 million tonnes (Mt) at an average grade of 2,305 ppm Nb₂O₅, yielding 15,501 tonnes of niobium pentoxide (Nb₂O₅). This resource sits within the same footprint as the rare earth elements at Yangibana, making it a valuable by-product that can enhance the project’s overall economics.
Niobium Resource Estimation
The resource is categorized as follows:
- Measured: 2.37 Mt at 1,035 ppm Nb₂O₅, yielding 2,451 tonnes of niobium pentoxide.
- Indicated: 4.36 Mt at 2,995 ppm Nb₂O₅, yielding 13,050 tonnes of niobium pentoxide.
- Inferred: 0.01 Mt at 1,435 ppm Nb₂O₅, yielding 20 tonnes of niobium pentoxide.
The total estimated resource of 6.74 Mt contains 15,521 tonnes of Nb₂O₅, spread across Bald Hill and Simon’s Find. The cut-off grade for this estimation was set at 0.24% TREO (total rare earth oxides), which ensures the resource includes economically viable amounts of both niobium and rare earth elements.
Geological and Deposit Structure
The Yangibana Project is hosted within a complex geological structure consisting of ironstone, which is the weathered and oxidized product of the primary hosts, ferro-carbonatite and phoscorite veins. The niobium mineralization occurs predominantly in ferro-columbite, while rare earths are present as monazite.
The mineralized veins vary in dip from horizontal to sub-vertical, with an average thickness of 2.2 to 3.5 meters, though thicker zones can reach up to 20 meters. The deposit's geological structure spans a strike length of 4 kilometers, and the mineralization extends from the surface to depths of around 125 meters.
The geological confidence is high, given that the interpretation was supported by a combination of detailed surface mapping and a comprehensive drilling program conducted between November 2021 and February 2022. This program consisted of 170 drill holes with a total length of 13,334 meters.
Drilling and Sampling Techniques
The drilling campaign used reverse circulation (RC) drilling with a 5¼ inch diameter face-sampling bit, and samples were collected every meter through a built-in cyclone and triple-tier riffle splitter. These samples, typically weighing between 2-4 kg, were sent to Intertek Genalysis in Perth for analysis, where they underwent sodium peroxide fusion followed by ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry) analysis.
The project maintained rigorous quality control throughout the drilling process, with field duplicates, blanks, and reference standards inserted at a rate of 1 in 20 samples. Downhole surveys were conducted using multi-shot electronic survey tools, ensuring accurate data collection.
Metallurgical Testing and Process Optimization
Hastings Technology Metals has made significant progress in optimizing the metallurgical processes for niobium recovery. Niobium in the Yangibana project is hosted in ferro-columbite, which accounts for 89.7% of the niobium found in the deposits, and 48% of this niobium is classified as liberated at a particle size of 90µm (P80). This particle size allows for efficient recovery using magnetic separation and flotation techniques.
Niobium Recovery Process
The metallurgical process focuses on three main steps:
- Ore Dressing: This involves gravimetric separation to remove low-value materials early in the process. The separation uses the high specific gravity of valuable minerals like monazite, zircon, and ferro-columbite. This step is expected to reduce material sent to the flotation circuit by up to 50%, lowering costs and improving recovery efficiency.
- Magnetic Separation: Test work using a wet high-intensity magnetic separator (WHIMS) at 1 Tesla has shown promising results, recovering up to 84.5% of the niobium in concentrates.
- Flotation: Further refinement of the flotation process will be required to optimize the selective recovery of niobium without compromising rare earth recovery. Early tests indicate that flotation could recover up to 75.2% of niobium under optimized conditions.
The report also emphasizes the need for further studies to develop a ferro-columbite depressant to enhance separation from monazite during flotation. This process will help maximize niobium recovery while maintaining efficient rare earth extraction.
Processing Plant and Niobium Circuit Integration
Hastings plans to integrate a niobium recovery circuit into its Yangibana beneficiation plant, which was originally designed to process rare earth elements. The proposed flowsheet includes a series of ore dressing, magnetic separation, and flotation stages that will allow the recovery of niobium alongside rare earth elements.
The integration of this recovery circuit will enhance the overall economic value of the project by generating additional by-product revenue from niobium, zirconium, and hafnium. Hastings is confident that the additional magnetic separation and flotation circuit can be effectively implemented within the existing plant design, and they are working closely with GR Engineering Services to optimize the plant's performance.
The Yangibana Project is on track to begin production by Q4 2026, with significant progress already made on early infrastructure, including the accommodation village, airstrip, and access roads.
Environmental and Infrastructure Considerations
Comprehensive environmental studies have been conducted, including Level 1 and Level 2 flora and fauna surveys. These surveys found no significant impact on rare species or threatened ecological communities, ensuring that the project meets environmental regulatory standards.
Infrastructure development is well underway, with early construction completed for essential facilities. The construction of the beneficiation plant is progressing, with long-lead equipment already secured.
Competent Person Statements and Data Integrity
The mineral resource estimates and metallurgical data were compiled by David Princep, an independent consultant, and Scott Atkinson, Hastings’ Principal Metallurgist. Both are qualified under the JORC (2012) Code, ensuring that the resource estimates are accurate and reliable.
- The data used for the resource estimation was managed through a secure database and validated using Micromine Mining software.
- Site visits have been conducted by various technical personnel over the past five years, ensuring a high level of confidence in the resource modeling and geological interpretation.
Conclusion and Future Work
The Maiden Niobium Resource at the Yangibana Project is a significant achievement, positioning Hastings Technology Metals as a multi-commodity producer with strong potential for by-product credits. The integration of niobium recovery alongside rare earth elements, zirconium, and hafnium ensures that the project will remain economically viable, even amid fluctuating commodity prices.
Future work will include:
- Additional drilling to extend the mineral resource,
- Further metallurgical testing to optimize the recovery process for niobium and associated by-products,
- Completion of the processing plant and integration of the niobium recovery circuit.
The project remains on schedule, with first production expected by 2026, and it is set to play a crucial role in the global supply of critical metals for industries such as electric vehicles, renewable energy, and high-tech manufacturing.

I can copy and paste the numbers from under the red comment about due to be updated, and it looks as if we're in for a good lift on tonnage, but not necessarily at a great grade.
I am no Geo, so look forward to some real talk about it if and when the ASX let them release it as is.
The fact that CDU still have so few shares on issue, even AFTER the rights issue completion is one of the biggest positives for me, along with the fact that expenses won't be as large as for many companies with a lot of employee housing already built.
Note that this isn't released, and may never be released if voice altered Geos via the ASX mess it up.
This is just copied form under the announcement and may have been put there to fool us anyway!

Right now, imo it's a buy.
What does that have to do with anything else?
Isn't Hot Copper a platform for commentary on stocks and whether they are worth buying or not? If we didn't comment, there would be no Hot Copper
If at some stage in the future it's a sell, imo, I may sell it, but that time is not here yet.
Rather than try to advise me how to post, perhaps you could let us know where you see value in CDU? Do you wait for it to be proven and moving up again?
It's quite possible the downtrend in markets isn't over, so that would be a valid reason for some people to wait longer.
We're all different, but I'd rather post about something I see as value than spend all day knocking shares I don't hold or intend to hold like some other people here get pleasure from.

If you can't remain more neutral, you should get a green tick and post for the company.
You simply can't give a value on it without ALL the information.
Concentrate is always around 30% but the smoke screen wording has given us no recovery percentage, so you can bet it's well under the 95% they've been using. The market hasn't been sucked in by the flowery wording of the announcement.- *Removed* this post has been removed from public view

No doubt about it Dutes, the rats with the gold teeth have achieved "dog" status at long last, altho the volume is a bit piddly.
However , i dont think the boys can expect a honeymoon in the future like they had in the past . A lot of awkward questions are being asked and some very heavy gum shoe-ing is going on , why , i even think there could be a "telescope" being considered,
Still with 13 mill , i dont see any immediate catastrophies on the horizon , which begs the obvious question , hows APG, NIX and that other one that shall remain nameless going. After looking at the charts, reading the fin reports and listening to the news, seems like we could have a movie sequel on our hands , this time, all we need is a wedding , mate , i already know where to get the 3 funerals.

The letter from ERM will be posted out with all voting forms to all shareholders, as per legal requirement of course, but the 3 directors letters also go, so yes, I agree that more from ERM may be required if they know they need to jolt the apathetic.
Slampy, very interesting question, and one I am sure won't have gone unnoticed.
Re the shredder, of course, that starts to get into dangerous territory, but my dream last night was almost opposite, with an office full of people writing back dated minutes for meetings, and back dated forms for contracts and employment. It was a hectic dream, and I hope there's no reality in it at all.

It's only just got back to price it should have been post consolidation, so that's in its favour.
Very little to sell, I like that, as it will move quickly.
