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?
PEN is very tradable, but not out of the woods by a long way imo.- *Removed* this post has been removed from public view

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?
To make your appointment for Perthites, and just for a sick session for others:

Given the impending grant of a mining license, I have done some research on the processes involved - leading to an article from last year (link below) produced by the Institute for Public Policy Research in Namibia.
Th article deals with both public procurement tenders, and mining license processes - I have pasted some of the article relating to mining licenses below the link.
http://www.ippr.org.na/sites/default/files/IPPR%20Briefing%20Paper%20No%2052%20Corruption%20paper.pdf
-----------------------------------------------------
"Over the years, the Ministry of Mines and Energy’s (MME) licensing processes have too, like the Tender Board, become mired in suspicion, given that when it comes to the
issuance of licences and signing of extractive contracts, there exists a great deal of secrecy. (Page5)
The Ministry’s image is not helped by the publication and release of information that suggests corruption takes place when it comes to mining-related licensing. For instance, a 2009 report12 looking at mining practices in Namibia’s protected areas, in a way probably succinctly sums up perceptions of goings-on at the MME, by explicitly stating that “enforcement problems stem from a [licensing] process that is slow, inefficient, and occasionally tainted by corruption”.
The document goes on to state: “For example, industry sources say that as recently as 2003, when a company would apply for an EPL [Exclusive Exploration License] in a park,
upper level MME officials would refuse to issue the EPL, citing the park’s protected status. However, this excuse was contradicted by officials issuing licences to their
political associates or to outside groups willing to bribe them often for more invasive types of mineral prospecting.”
And in many cases, disregarding legislated regulatory systems and processes, “mining companies bypassed the corrupt MME officials … by appealing directly to the Ministers themselves”.
Speculatively, much of the alleged dodgy dealings at the MME can probably be traced to the fact that the Minerals (Prospecting and Mining) Act does not encourage accountability of decision-making, in that transparency of licensing processes is not provided for, while “Preservation of Secrecy” is explicitly addressed. Compounding this is that both according to the law and in practice, mining and exploration licenses are granted at the discretion of the Minister, placing a lot of power over the country’s mineral resources in the hands of just one person.
If the argument is taken further, then this situation must surely constitute an invite to unethical and unlawful conduct, as recently illustrated by the Supreme Court finding that former Mines Minister, Erkki Nghimtina, had acted unlawfully when in 2006 he had discretionarily granted EPLs belonging to an Australian-owned company to a prospector called Ancash, in which a prominent and politically connected individual held a significant
stake at the time.
Incidences such as these, as well as cases of politically well-connected individuals applying for and gaining EPLs and then on-selling them to foreign mining companies,
and the sale of Namibian mining and exploration licenses and operations in other parts of the world without the Namibian government being apprised of such transactions – as happened when French uranium miner Areva bought out the uranium exploration operations of a small Canadian miner a few years ago and has since started mining in the Erongo Region – has increasingly raised considerable questions and criticisms around the existing mining and exploration licensing dispensation, which prompted Prime Minister Nahas Angula to make the statement, used to headline this section, in Parliament earlier this year.
However, all does not seem lost, as government a few years ago started the process of reviewing the Minerals (Prospecting and Mining) Act of 1992. It is unclear at what stage the consultations are, but Chamber of Mines General Manager, Veston Malango, stated in February this year that the major outstanding issues that remained to be addressed were improved mining and exploration licensing regulations. As yet, it is uncertain when a new Minerals Bill will be tabled before parliament, it having been scheduled for sometime during 2010. The expectation still appears to be that a Bill, as with the new Tender Board regulations, will be ready to be tabled before the end of the year.
But once again, concern however remains over the transparency of mining and exploration licensing in any envisaged Minerals Bill".
-----------------------------------------------
In light of this somewhat interesting analysis - Does anyone have insight to the number of licenses granted over the past year or so?
I did a quick Google search which found a new mining license issued in July this year to Minemakers for their Sandpiper Project, with an extension of an exploration license for Metals Australia (after a high court challenge to their right to the license, and subsequent attempt by two former parliamentarians to compromise the high court judge See Metals Australia web site for details of case.
http://www.metalsaustralia.com.au/latestnews.asp?pg=2&sub=b)
It also delivered an exploration license for Serica energy (granted this month).
------------------------------------------------------
While the above could be viewed as a bit worrying, the current major shareholders in Extract/Kalahari know the environment well - Rio is a long term operator in the country, Itochu is a shareholder in the Kudu Gas field in Namibia (and later invested in Extract & Kalahari), and also has other investments there, and Stephen Galloway was the Undersecretary to the Namibian Minister of Trade, in addition to other Govermental roles he held till a decade ago.
The Chinese say, May you live in interesting times.....and we do.

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.
Cheers

Yep, I agree. I know the people as well. They have a whole heap of old TEC ground. Its a great hit. and I think they are continuing the drilling.

These were the first 3 posts ever on CSE.
Although Dezneva only posted "...I know the people as well...", I can see how you may have remebered that as "...the boss being a good bloke..."
Problem is, it was Bendigo he was replying to and not you!
How do you explain that?

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.

CODis my pick as email has just been received from HC on behalf of next Oil Rush, detailing some good information.
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.
Many won't have received the email yet as they're at work, etc.
