TMC...One of the miners that hasnt bounced yet (TMC)     

siwel2 - 17 Feb 2006 10:17

Interesting little company. Did a series of asset swops to leave them with half of the 4th largest Nickel deposit in the world.
The deposit itself is in the Philippines has been known about for 30 years but due to low prices and lack of demand in the Far East it was never exploited. With the explosion in demand from India and China the nickel price has climbed from $2 to $6.50 but oddly enough is still considered low.
The final approval stage for exploitation is just about to be approved and extraction will begin. The company already has one contract with a Japanese smelter and is in discussions with smelters in a series of countries.
Nothing clever about the operation, as the ore is of sufficiently high grade, they dig it up and ship it out. Infrastrucure is already in place for operation.
TMC is currently priced at 18m, the initial Japanese contract is worth 4m and each additional contract will hopefully be at this level or greater.
Final approval turns the company into a producer and each additional contract simply increases their size.
The management is tight with cash and has some good quality mining skills onboard.
The Philippine government is fast tracking the final approval and the company says it expects it shortly.
One to hold for approval and through the series of RNS's as more contracts are won. Company should be worth 50m in 6 months and 100m in 12-18 months.
Buy it, ignore it, just pointing this one out.

expert - 27 Jul 2007 10:08 - 700 of 879

oilrag, if you are so bullish on this stock and arranging a party for when TMC hit's 20 pounds, why did you sell stock?

fliper - 27 Jul 2007 10:14 - 701 of 879

Well done you chaps that got in below 2.55

oilyrag - 27 Jul 2007 18:59 - 702 of 879

Expert, Because having held for so long and with large recent gains since Jan this year, I was watching my investment reduce in value after the MPSA announcement when it should then have started rising. With shorters starting to get involved and MM's taking every opportunity to slate the stock, I realised that the only person not making any money on this was me. So, I decide to consolidate my position by selling a few and to take advantage of increasing my holdings at the right price. With regard to my outlook for TMC, this hasn't changed other than to say that there will be a slight reduction in end values as the price of nickel reduces.

not a pretty sight! ...... sp looks to be heading down a further 20p to 216 where it meets 200 dma ..... if it doesn't bounce there, then perhaps Noah will have ajob after all!

pity about this one , the spread is so wide its untradeable at present

oilyrag - 30 Jul 2007 15:37 - 705 of 879

So, in that case buy it and hold for a while.

maddoctor - 30 Jul 2007 15:43 - 706 of 879

not in the present market

cynic - 30 Jul 2007 16:01 - 707 of 879

you do not have to buy per the quoted spread (currently 220/232) ..... phone your broker and get him to place the order at your chosen level ...... do not be surprised if it gets filled

maddoctor - 30 Jul 2007 16:04 - 708 of 879

200 is my price , think i will have to wait a day or two

cynic - 30 Jul 2007 16:15 - 709 of 879

interesting scenario .... just tried to buy 3000 @ 217 via by CFD broker .... unfortunately their clients already hold about 4% which is their limit so was not allowed to do.
if you can get in at 217, don't reckon you will be far wrong as the fundamentals certainly have not changed, and any fall in base nickel will only have a marginal and short-term effect on sp
