I might have joined 4 days ago, but I can assure you I have been with AVQ for a long time. I have seen the likes of yourself turn from very PRO AVQ to almost troll like. I can feel your pain, however I accept that most of what has occurred has not been in axiom's control, (this you must agree with).
We now have an opportunity to give axiom the chance to prove their worth. They have give some direct timelines and I for one will be watching very closely how these play out.
I also agree that the drill results need to be as good, if not better than Kolosori and from all reports they are, (looking for the announcement shortly to prove this to me that contact were on the money). This is the first step that needs to be covered moving forward.
I also believe that the company already knew that results are going to be very good, hence why they see off-takes as capital moving forward. If these results are very good then it’s a huge possibility that no more CR’s will be needed. As I have said this is now axiom’s chance to prove they can stick to a timeline that is in their control given good drill results.
I do think it’s completely unfair for people to come on here and try and say there will be a CR without question without giving axiom a chance to prove we have a second great resource that will fund us moving forward. I will listen to the company before some disgruntled shareholder or some troll that will do some much DD that they will miss a golden opportunity.
I also have a fact that I personally spoke to the mining mister and know that we will have an answer on Kolosori come FEB. This is also a timeline that has been out of axiom’s control. However given that we already have,
- Feasibility studies complete, (obviously we will need to make some changes
- Full landowner support
- SMM out the picture
- An experienced mining company waiting the wings to get going
- We will have take off agreement in numbers, (once results start to be released)
- Experience of working with locals in the area.
- Employment ongoing.
- We are still working directly with landowners from Kolosori.
- I may be wrong, but I believe that all groups from kolosori and SJ will both benefit from both tenements, (so these two will never be split).
- We have a good relationship with present government.
- We have proven in the high court that axiom have always been honest in their business dealings and can be trusted in SI.
- We have proven that we are very generous to the landowners with a 20% stake.
- We have proven we want to start to get this Nickel out the ground, unlike our SMM friends.
- We also have a Jorc that is almost complete for Kolossi
- We are a government that is very aware that they have put axiom into this mess in the first place
- We will be the only company that can tick all the right boxes to please the EOI process
Given all this we will also get Kolosori come FEB or earlier.
With all that said I agree MACMAC that time is running out for axiom to prove that they have a second resource that can fund us moving forward. Let’s see what they can pull out the hat before the end of the month before we try to discredit them.
