GALAHAD GOLD - a strong mining Growth share of 2004 ? (GLA)

Extracts From Chairmans statement in last finals of 10th FEB 04
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Group was formed on completion of a transaction in which the assets of
Shambhala Gold Limited and shares in Skaergaard Minerals Corporation were
acquired by Galahad Capital plc, a company quoted on the AIM market of the
London Stock Exchange. This transaction was announced on 29 October 2003 and
completed on 23 December 2003. The name was changed to Galahad Gold plc on
completion.

Galahad is now a sizeable mining and development company which has the potential
to benefit from opportunities in the precious metals resource sector. It remains
Galahad's aim to own properties with resources containing a total of at least
50m ounces of precious metals gold equivalent. To date Galahad has acquired two
mining projects:

•A 21.9% shareholding (33.25% on a fully diluted basis) in Northern
Dynasty Minerals Limited which has the right to acquire 100% of the Pebble
project in Alaska USA; and

•A 100% shareholding in Skaergaard Minerals Corporation, which owns the
Skaergaard project in Greenland.

Your board believes that the Skaergaard project provides a highly-leveraged
exposure to any increase in the price of gold, platinum and palladium and the
Pebble project provides similar exposure to any increase in the price of gold
and copper.

FINANCIAL YEAR HIGHLIGHTS

•The acquisition of Shambhala Gold Limited and shares in Skaergaard
Minerals Corporation was successfully completed.

•As part of this acquisition, Galahad Gold plc acquired a 21.9%
shareholding (33.25% fully diluted) in Northern Dynasty Minerals Limited, a
Canadian quoted company with an option over 100% of the Pebble project in
Alaska.

•Northern Dynasty Minerals Limited recently announced that the Pebble
project contained 26.5m ounces of gold and 16.5 billion pounds of copper,
making it the largest gold deposit in North America in terms of contained
gold and the second largest copper deposit in North America in terms of
contained copper.

•The successful 2003 development programme at the 100%-owned Skaergaard
deposit in Greenland.

No, 13% profit. I don't have L2, but on my online broker's website there is mostly purchase activity - most of the sales are smaller and some of the larger "sales" may be that old chestnut of larger purchases at bargain prices getting reported late and being called sales by the computer system.

cynic - 20 Apr 2006 16:53 - 42 of 81

Just a typical cynical caveat ...... shares like GLA are fine while on the upbeat, but if any selling gets a grip then you won't be able to shift enough or fast enough ..... watch out and don't get too greedy .... remember GLA only holds 17% of Uramin, which itself would seem to be something of an unknown quantity.

GLA have also probably moved upwards purely on sentiment - i.e. on the back of the rise in gold .... but whereas that was $525 at London close yesterday and $540 at opening today, it is now back to just below $520.

Good advice, Cynic, although for the time-frame I'm planning on holding these for, I think I should be okay unless a total catastrophe strikes. Randgold Resources is what I am hoping this one is going to imitate.

BTW I think you need to add $100 to your gold prices . . .

jameel06 - 20 Apr 2006 21:43 - 45 of 81

Cynic, thank for your advice! But the position with GLA is to top slice the profits as it rises! AND not to keep on forever!

soul traders - 21 Apr 2006 10:03 - 49 of 81

Thanks for the info Jameel - we shall see regarding the SP. By my calculations UraMin will be capitalised at 120 million at the issue price of 68.5p. GLA's holding is therefore worth just under 14 million. Could be good for GLA's SP, but the prices of these new issues are notorious for dropping off after floatation, and in anycase a company's minority interests are not always fully valued in the holding company's SP.

The full value of GLA will be realised when they start producing from their various Nickel and Moly interests, etc, and this will take a while. I'm in it for the medium term at least, so that's fine with me.

cynic - 21 Apr 2006 10:17 - 50 of 81

rightly or wrongly, and time will tell, i have just taken my profits here and will now sit back and watch ..... while it is possible that sp will soar on Monday with the start of dealings in Uramin, I have my doubts ...... The Uramin news is already well broadcast, and therefore imo already discounted (and more?) in GLA's sp.

no one ever went broke realising a profit, and it would not surprise me in the least to see GLA falling on Monday as the T10/20 and similar traders get out ..... if they start getting out in any numbers, woe betide trying to cash in your own holdings, for MMs may well not want to know.

jameel06 - 21 Apr 2006 10:23 - 51 of 81

CYNIC!!! UraMin - Trading symbol -- UMN!!!!!!! Its trading have a look sp has risen by aa couple of %

soul traders - 21 Apr 2006 10:27 - 52 of 81

If GLA drops, that's a buying opportunity for me. Sooner or later I'm hoping to redirect some profits from elsewhere, and GLA will be on my shopping list. Ten-bagger by end of 2008??

soul traders - 21 Apr 2006 10:33 - 53 of 81

Jameel, UMN's SP is currently standing at an indicative spread of 70/75p, but according to FT.com no shares have moved yet. Maybe you'd like to buy some to get the ball rolling?? :o)

(120 mil for uranium prospects awaiting exploration seems expensive to me. DYOR.)

jameel06 - 21 Apr 2006 11:02 - 54 of 81

soultrader.....wat u mean about 2008....so u plan to hold gla!!!! Ten bagger is abit optimistic? I wonder what CYNIC has to say to that? But I guess if it happens I wont be complaining? UMN not yet... GLA is better bet - as u beenfit indirectly from UMN appreciation.. risk is diversified!

soul traders - 21 Apr 2006 11:12 - 55 of 81

Yes Jameel, this is where I have to come out of the closet and admit that I buy to hold. The logic is simple - I buy co's that are sitting on shed-loads of natural resources and wait for them to start selling the stuff. The share-price goes multi-bagger and I slice profits here and there to invest in more companies with similar potential. Short-term trading, on the other hand, looks to me to be too much like taking a bet on which way the SP will move on a given day and I think that that leads to getting caught with one's pants down.

At least, that's my plan, and in the case of NOP and SBE it has served me well so far. JKX I unfortunately missed out on, but it is a good model of what I think GLA and others could do.

Good luck anyway to those who prefer the short-term view. I just prefer the near-certainty of an investment in a natural resources company with a well-diversified set of assets, which in the current commodities market ought to come good in the end.

cynic - 21 Apr 2006 11:30 - 56 of 81

UMN may have started trading today, but no trades reported at all.

GLA is (a) not an oil company and JKX is, and I afraid to say (b) is not rermotely in the same quality league as JKX.

As far as I can see reading the history, GLA has a lot of bridges to mend before the market will raise them from penny-stock levels

jameel06 - 21 Apr 2006 14:00 - 57 of 81

soul trader, which other ones are u in for long term? If you dont mind me asking. I was in SEY but left in March, for issues not related to the sp at all. Even thought I bought at 19p and saw it rise, rise, rise!

View welcomed

soul traders - 21 Apr 2006 14:06 - 58 of 81

Jameel,

I am in oil co's NOP, VOG, BLR, and miners TMC and RDG. All hopefully have bright futures ahead of them, although I must stress that many would regard some of these as very risky plays. I don't have equal holdings in them, as with the miners in particular I am concerned that the timetable may be rather lengthy before they get into production and serious SP growth. I have therefore allocated less capital to these, the idea being that others of my holdings may race ahead a bit sooner and I will transfer profits from time to time as the slower companies begin to play catch-up. I also have three or four other holdings which are just for me to dip a toe in the water; you'll see my name on the threads. DYOR.

Not sure about SEY - seems solid but I have done no research on it to speak of. The discussion thread contains some useful info though.

jameel06 - 21 Apr 2006 19:03 - 59 of 81

soul trader, ,,,,,, have u seen UMN!!!! BOy GLA will increase next week for sure.. the incresae will higher proportionately then what we saw with UMT. i mean more than 30% in the short term!

soul traders - 21 Apr 2006 19:07 - 60 of 81

Finally some movement - forgive my scepticism! Clearly FT.com didn't publish today's chart until at the close of play. Looks like some biggies went through right before the end too.
