These guys absolutely suck. I'm sick of them, they are a cancer on the Earth. Do not let them in what ever you do. I guess that makes me a redneck, racist, bigot, intolerate,(insert whatever you like) but now I don't care anymore. THey can all f#@%k off....

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:

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.

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..."

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.

1. How is drilling mud removed from the wellbore following completion
2. What can prevent mud removal from wellbore.
3. How can drilling fluid emulsion affect mud removal during well completion?
Great responses. First time I’ve ever used it (shame on me)
My question of the Melbana team is why wasn’t this anticipated and why weren’t we ready for this? Very odd and seems incompetent and somewhat suspicious or intentional. Sheritt don’t want Melbana to succeed. They’ll be slipping us a Mickey whenever and however they can.
Q1 How is drilling mud removed from the wellbore following completion
After the well completion process, where drilling mud (or drilling fluid) is used to stabilize the well and carry cuttings to the surface, it needs to be removed to enable the well to flow. Here’s how this is typically done:
1. **Wellbore Cleanout**: Initially, a process called wellbore cleanout is performed. This involves circulating fluids down the wellbore to remove residual mud and debris. This step is crucial to ensure the well is clear and ready for production.
2. **Flushing**: Fluids such as water or brine are often used to flush out the remaining mud. This helps to displace the heavier drilling mud and clear the wellbore. The type of fluid used for flushing depends on the well's conditions and the nature of the formation.
3. **Testing and Verification**: After flushing, the well is usually tested to verify that it is clean and ready for production. Various tests may be conducted to assess the integrity of the well and ensure that there are no obstructions that could hinder production.
4. **Perforation and Production**: Once the well is clean and tested, it can be prepared for production. This typically involves perforating the casing or liner at specific intervals to allow oil or gas to flow into the wellbore. Production equipment such as valves, pumps, and separators are then installed to facilitate the flow of hydrocarbons to the surface.
Overall, the removal of the mud column and preparation for production involves a series of systematic steps to ensure the wellbore is clear and conducive to efficient hydrocarbon recovery.
Q2 What can prevent mud removal from wellbore.
Several factors can hinder the effective removal of mud from a well after completion. These can include:
1. **Lost Circulation Zones**: During drilling, there may have been areas where drilling mud escaped into highly permeable formations (lost circulation zones). These zones can trap mud and make it difficult to fully remove during cleanout operations.
2. **Formation Damage**: Some formations may be sensitive to the types of fluids used for cleanout. Improper fluids or aggressive cleaning methods can cause damage to the formation, leading to reduced productivity or difficulties in mud removal.
3. **High Mud Density**: If the drilling mud used has a high density, it may be more difficult to displace and remove from the wellbore. Special procedures or chemicals might be required to effectively remove dense muds.
4. **Complex Well Architecture**: Wells with complex architectures, such as horizontal or highly deviated wells, can pose challenges for mud removal. Ensuring thorough cleanout in all sections of the well can be more challenging in these cases.
5. **Cementation Issues**: Improper cementation of casing or liners can lead to channels or voids where mud can accumulate. These areas may require additional remediation to ensure complete mud removal.
6. **Equipment Limitations**: Sometimes the equipment used for cleanout operations may not be sufficient or appropriate for the specific conditions of the well, leading to incomplete mud removal.
7. **Environmental Considerations**: Depending on the environmental regulations and concerns in the area, certain fluids used for cleanout may require careful handling or disposal, which can affect the efficiency and method of mud removal.
Addressing these challenges often involves careful planning, appropriate selection of fluids and methods for cleanout, and sometimes the use of specialized tools or techniques to ensure thorough mud removal without causing damage to the well or surrounding formations.
Q3
How can drilling fluid emulsion affect mud removal during well completion?
Drilling fluid emulsions can significantly impact mud removal during the completion process of a well. Here’s how:
1. **Stability of Emulsion**: If the drilling fluid forms a stable emulsion (where water and oil phases are finely dispersed and mixed), it can be challenging to break this emulsion during the mud removal process. Emulsions can resist separation into distinct phases, making it difficult to effectively remove the mud from the wellbore.
2. **Viscosity**: Emulsions often have higher viscosity compared to single-phase fluids. This increased viscosity can hinder the flowback of the drilling fluid from the wellbore during cleanout operations. As a result, more effort and possibly specialized equipment or chemicals may be needed to break and displace the emulsified drilling fluid.
3. **Cleanout Efficiency**: The presence of an emulsified drilling fluid can reduce the efficiency of mechanical and chemical cleanout methods. For example, conventional displacement fluids or washes may be less effective in displacing and removing emulsified drilling fluids compared to simpler, non-emulsified fluids.
4. **Formation Compatibility**: Emulsified drilling fluids may interact differently with the formation rock and fluids, potentially leading to formation damage or difficulties in achieving cleanout objectives. This can complicate subsequent production operations and affect well productivity.
5. **Chemical Stability**: Some emulsions are stabilized by chemical additives that resist easy breakdown. These additives can persist in the wellbore even after attempts to displace the main drilling fluid components, requiring additional steps to ensure complete removal.
To mitigate these issues, engineers and operators may employ specific strategies tailored to the characteristics of the emulsified drilling fluid. This could involve using specialized surfactants or chemicals designed to break the emulsion, employing temperature or pressure changes to promote phase separation, or utilizing mechanical agitation techniques to facilitate the removal of the emulsified fluid from the wellbore. Careful planning and execution are essential to minimize the impact of emulsified drilling fluids on the completion process and ensure efficient wellbore cleanout.Last edited by justinmetals: 22/06/24
