Communication, page-382

I'm glad you're comfortable with your investment in Ecograf Shellbell, however, with the increased cashola comes increased responsibility to improve communication not worsen it.

For too long (years and years) Spinks has used the need to abide by confidentiality agreements as an excuse for poor communication. He's kept us all dangling whilst never being held to account for endless delays and a lack of clarity on the next steps to advance projects.

The BOD were lucky that the rumour mill took hold in Germany in relation to the European car makers being on the cusp of signing deals for Li ion battery raw materials - this was the main factor enabling the $54 million to be raised, not because Spinks did anything other than proceed at glacial pace without making a major misstep. Spinks should not forget that the remuneration report almost suffered a first strike at last years AGM because in my network there are scores of very pissed of shareholders.
