I feel sorry for the gullible punters who bought at $1.30 on the basis of rumours and hype.

As you say, time will tell. THX is the only company to find copper at Doolgunna apart from SFR. It seems it is hard to do so.

I also laughed when you said the RNI is a takeover target. It would be the first time in history a spec mining company was taken over before a drill tip had touched the earth. Paying overs for a piece of dirt would be hard thing to tell the shareholders of the buying company. Normally a JORC resource would be appropriate.

As for the bots, it isn't hard for them to churn through that many shares in a week,. I've seen it many times in numerous stocks. This is one of the few where they keep pumping it up instead of down. It is interesting to watch nonetheless.
