NML is due its interrim results now, last year it was the 28th of this month.

They are setting up a new site to explore/research/analyse and all the equipment to do this should be on site now, and drilling should start soon, all this extra news should be covered in the interims.

does anyone have any further positive views on this company ??

Thats just it there isnt anything to research is there apart from broken promises a big hole in the ground and a deafening silence from a company supposed to be mining 10000 carats a month its a disgrace and a shambles and Im starting to think they may have a problem raising more cash at a decent price as the mystery seller/s is well aware that joe public are starting to wise up here.
If the mystery seller thinks theres going to be a problem selling they may only be prepared to stump up something like 2.5p or even 2p.

Well, for a start you could research who the mystery seller is.

Been reading FYB again , Anom...Ian will be pleased that you are quoting him again. I don't think he is serious!!
RBonnier only had a small number of shares..hardly a mystery seller.
Keep trying.......

ASMITH2 ...lol! Multiple personality strikes again...

Anomalous..I have found out what your supposedly 'shocking news' is. The appropriate people have been informed. I think you might find that that little figment of your imagination has not gone down too well in certain circles. I would expect some repercussions...for you, not the company..who are very busy trying to realise shareholder value.

If you know what the two bits of news were, then publish them here on this board and I'll tell you if you are right. I think you are lying, because I doubt that the sources would pass on the information to you.

It's not a 'figment' of my imagination, because the information was verified. The company can not deny what was said, because to do so might invite an investigation by 'you know who' and they wouldn't want that. The trouble for them is that 'you know who' already knows.

I have absolutely no fear of any repercussions....so I say to you publish and be damned, because if you do, NML will be!

takahe,

Would you ike to share the "shocking news"?

Put it this way - if you don't reply with the news, we know you're a liar and the whole board will know you were deceiving them.

Anomalous...I am not a liar, but you are. I know quite a lot of people but only heard this yesterday. The information came from a very dependable source. I don't know about two bits of news but let us say that the information revolves round a certain diamond analyst. Do you not understand that clients have to pay if they are not clients of WHI?
I don't have to defend myself here. I have taken a more appropriate course of action.

Andy..I am surprised at you. I am sure Anom has shared his 'news' with you.

>Takahe
so it appears someone has informed you of the circumstances to one of the parts of news, but maybe not the context. It's all very well having to pay for a report, but they asked for something different and the person concerned was certain he knew what they were really after and it was not the standard report.

So what's the other news then? You said that you knew both bits - so tell us what the second piece was?

Anom...No.. I said 'shocking news'..it was you that said two bits....
It is possible that you have misinterpreted what was said by the 'person'. I hope so. I don't think the person will be very amused to hear what you are saying he said! It is being further investigated by the company who are also not amused.

I have not misinterpreted it one bit, because I received an email from the person concerned and there's no mistake of the context of the request. It is NML that should be worried, because the FSA have been told as well. It's one thing requesting a report, it's quite another to say what they said.

I said there was two pieces of shocking news and you said you knew 'my shocking news' and that means both - so tell us the next piece and who told me.

takahe,

That would depend upon what you are referring to, which unless you state, I can't confirm!

Bid down .5p, all buy trades this morning, bad news in the offing?, or a large sell being worked?

Anom.."'my shocking news' and that means both " ......has no one ever told you that 'news' is a plural word. This is typical of how you misinterpret things.
How very odd of JP to be telling you a company's business, even if it is true. I have copied your remark to the FD of the company.

Andy...lol..not even worth commenting on...

takahe,

I suppose that's one way of confirming you haven't a clue!

How clear can I make this, I wonder? I heard a piece of 'shocking news' I have no idea of what Anom is on about unless it is to do with the mystery sellers or the Badenhorsts selling ...again.
How would I know if there is "bad news in the offing or a large sell being worked".
It shouldn't bother you, if you don't hold.
My position is quite clear. I hold shares in NML. They may do well, they may not....

takahe,

Well the "Badenhorsts selling" would hardly be "shocking news" (IMHO) as it looks as though they have sold some, (though not many), and they are entitled to sell as many as they like as their interest is non notifiable, and they are not directors.

I don't see that as a problem, nor "shocking", it happens in the market every day.

If you think that is "shocking", I'm surprised, and I doubt whether the FD is either, and he may get annoyed at you interrupting his day for such a triviality IMO.

These things should stay on the boards, NML won't be interested, idle BB chat is just that, otherwise companies will get tired of investors contacting them for trivialities.

Andy...on the contrary..the FD is extremely interested in what is said , when it is something involving their company business. You may see this kind of thing as idle BB chat. It is hardly trivial to say that a company is trying to bribe someone!!
I wonder what you think would be serious. Anyway, you are entitled to your own opinion , as am I.
The FD of EPD has taken a great interest in BBs lately, having been advised by someone (not me) of what has been 'said' by the company.

Andy - if she did know she would have said, but she doesn't. I suppose if she had put it on the BB, the other shareholders might be frightened. They might think that the project is being run by amateurs. But then, in a sense, it actually is. After all, Healey made those ridiculous promises last year and a professional would have known better. It's a wonder why Cross didn't tell him to shut up, or not to communicate with shareholders by email and tell them stories about the operations.

I'm satisfied that she doesn't know the context of the 'news' and as a consequence, doesn't know the difference between one and the other. Whilst one might be standard business practise, the other can be interpreted as something much more sinister. I've only ever seen that sort of request from someone like the Mafia before - "I'll make him an offer he can't refuse!"
