i think the important view today will be the sell side,situated at 8.5 and none too keen to offer below that price.
offscreen buyers will need to take the risk that no large parcels get taken from the sell side as the amount for sale compared to the companies issued shares combined with the agregate of the top 20 leaves only a limited turnover available.unless a sof inv decides to take the percentage profit and drop some to the buyers.

with the buy side having no solid base of suppert this leaves movement either way in the hands of the group with the strongest desire.a wait and see scenario.

the senegal announcement will be the trigger to the sudden change in the sp up/down ??,or a protracted wait will lower the feeling of security for those assesing the safety of having their money and buy in later or miss the fall.

the cone of silence still in effect means possible JV partners still at the table.ME comment about due dilligence taking 4/6 months was a long time ago and now the company has a more diverse portfolio imho the cone of silence should be removed and shareholders given information updates .sitting in the dark for so long now has erroded confidence as time slips by.

just an oppinion
