All the information/analysis I posted on this thread and you take issue with my calling Twiggy a "hypocrite and subsidy seeking missile"
... Never said he was a "reptile" to be clear, but the years he spent in court stopping other exploration companies accessing his station Minadroo while making a fortune exploring and mining the other stations in the Pilbara is the definition of hypocritical. His subsidy seeking behaviour since turning green (and my hat tip to him, he smelled that pivot to renewables and governments required subsidy of it early) is demonstrable fact. Every project he gets into is grub sstaked by large government subsidies like his hydrogen and electrolysis plays east coast. Good luck, but totally irrelevant to this thread.
"the most chronic cases of sour grapes I have ever come across on HC".. that is the most ridiculous attack I've ever had on HC. Every day, literally, one explorer or another flies on exploration success and I'm never on any of them pretty much. Why in the world would I be bitter at missing this one? I couldn't care less about missing any of the hundreds of success stories I never heard of and was never going to punt each year... give me one reason why?
"Absolutely astonishing that you didn’t at least take a modest position here back in October."... how's that? The 26th Oct discovery release was barely more than average Nb for many carbonatites. Best hit was 0.6% from 162M, shallow hit from 75m only 0.31% Nb2O5. Even if that discovery was made outside Geraldton next to the highway and mains power it wouldn't have been close to economic or worth much to the share price on the off chance it was. Next to Lake MacKay 350km from any decent roads and it's barely a geological curiosity. The world is full of carbonatites, and they very rarely generate high enouh grades to consider development.
The only people buying WA1 back then except momentum traders were those with insider information taking advantage of those IPO retail muppets that backed the company for a punt in the first place. The above hole is worth a small punt, not running the stock to $3 and >$150M MC.
Even the overworked, jaded geos at the ASX realised no stock runs that hard on high volume from the above PARC003 results, no sense at all, so they gave WA1 a speeding ticket because it was stinking up the ASX so badly. The answer to why the stock was a buy back in October was crystal clear in the speeding ticket response. The VERY high grade LUR002 and 3 grades reported needed to be re-run because the low-level detection assay method was i inappropriate for very high grades.
Of course, with those very high LUR 2 & 3 holes being re-assayed, and the handheld XRF now going back over all clay-over-BOX samples the company knew it was on a winner. So di half of Perth by the look at that chart on price and volume.. so yeah, if I was on the grapevine early then sure it would have been a buy.
Maybe the real sour grapes are from those early IPO investors robbed of success upside because management chose not to release that some very high grade samples in LUR 2&3 were being re-assayed for confirmation. By holding that info back management allowed a whole range of insiders on the grapevine to load up at the expense of genuine investors who looked at the PARC003 results and thought "NO WAY, I'm taking profits here". So maybe you were on the inside, maybe you are just a mad gambler buying a way over-priced stock for no justified reason... but don;t come on here all pious about sour grapes and should have known BS pleaase.
