Im not one to cast asspurtions on AJM especially in the current state they are in to which i am a LT shareholder of both Pilgangoora companies and wanting both of them to be successful. Im sure they both will eventually.
I pride myself on conveying the correct information to others
I have watched all 50 vessels of the Pilgangoora products depart from berth PH2 since October 2018 and will continue to do so.
The recent AJM December 2020 Quarterly appears to have had selective counting occur when it comes to the Shipping figures for that December 2020 quarter just released..
My own "shipping notes" from the previous December Quarter 2020 show Volume shipped by AJM during that December Quarter in
3 separate vessels was
47410 wmt approx or based on the quarterly conversion rate
44234 dmt. approxAJM profess to achieve a premium price for their product in the December 2020 quarter?As if that matters now.... Its history!
Who knows what is the actual price relating to my own corrected Quarters volumes and how it compares with data from other independent lithium operations.
I will leave that to others to sort out..... I would be happy to be proved completely wrong but im confident of my own past notes for that quarter listed below and equally confident of the neighbors shipping figures as i scrutinize them also.
To me they have it total manipulated information which is hard to understand their motives on such an important document prior to hopefully will be better times going forward .
I do not think the industry major supplier at the time knows what its sales volume was for the quarter.....which brings into doubt the clear premium price they received in the quarter that they quote shown below.Marketing and Shipping
Altura completed two shipments during the quarter totalling 33,603 wmt (31,352 dmt).) One shipment aboard the
Franbo Logos was to a new customer, sold on a trial basis.
The second and final shipment aboard the MV Asia Pearl was to long-term offtake partner Guangdong Weihua.
Altura weighted average contract price for the two shipments completed in the quarter on a basis of SC6 grade delivered CIF to China was US$399.74/dmt. The realised sale price (considering price adjustments for actual lithium content and/or any impurity penalties) for the two shipments was US$392.68/dmt, CIF China. When compared against publicly released and inferred data from other independent lithium concentrate operations,
Altura was achieving a clear price premium for its product. The first discrepancy to note..Bulk carrier
FRANBO LOGOS did indeed carry solely AJM product (7992 wmt) but it left PH port on the 20/09/2020 .
That to me is with-in the September 2020 quarter and should not have been included
