Barskiy’s background isn’t as some would have you believe just ”investment banking”. In 2004 he became managing director of West Siberian Resources. The group merged with Alliance Oil and its market capitalisation grew from less than US$100 million to US$3 billion.

Thanks for your words of encouragement - I am sure that the team whoever they are now on MTA are in this for only one reason - just get so fed up like everyone else when too many bad calls are made. Up to 4 years ago this used to be fun to me, now it is a serious head ache. However that is nobodys problem only my own. May we all be rewarded for our persistance one day soon. GL

To my simple mind, none of the above are likely to move the sp north till they start another drilling program next year and have a decent strike, or am I not seeing the full picture? .,.

Thanks driver that has cheered me up no end, can go to bed tonight and tell myself to have patience. Cheers for putting me in the picture.

Hadn't read the agm rns before I posted the above mmmm!!

A drastic drop today have you any idea what is going on anybody?

I have sold so watch them go back up. GL to anyone else holding.

3M like the majority of these oil minnows you do have to have an abundance of patience. I'm not in these and know no reason for their drop, but it is a down day in the wider market anyway.

Cheers 2517, I have sold because I wanted to make a profit, if it drops more I might get back in - too many selling for my liking and have more than doubled my money so that makes a huge change for me.

That's good news, had you held them very long?
2517

No only about 3 months and I gave 0.90 for them, should have got out when they went to 3.70 and I would have trebled my stake but hey ho! I didn't so have to be happy with what I have got today. I got cold feet watching them drop, as I said they will probably go up now.

There will probably be some breaking news and it will fly now I've gone.

Bye Bye

You never know driver, I may be back.

Turned out to be a good time for you to sell 3M, these have dropped significantly on no news.
2517

I was very lucky for once 2517, keeping a close eye and if they drop any more might get back in. It was a nice birthday present. Still 78% down on everything else in my wonderful (not) portfolio.
