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%

•Northern Dynasty Minerals Limited recently announced that the Pebble
project contained 26.5m ounces of gold and 16.5 billion pounds of copper,

contained copper.

•The successful 2003 development programme at the 100%-owned Skaergaard

Ouch! Results out today and the news is very mixed to say the least.

I am glad I sold all of my holding in GLA a couple of weeks ago. The Skaergaard write-off in today's results is a bit of a shocker!

I read in the results that "it is unlikely that production will commence at Pebble before 2012."

Malmbjerg (InterMoly) is also at least a couple of years away from the serious groundwork taking place, although the Pre-Feasibility Study is now underway.

I'm asking myself what GLA is planning to do for spending money, since they have little cash at present.

One plus point is that GLA's investments in other companies have appreciated considerably. Against this is the fact that these companies are also at early stages, plus the current uncertainty in the stock market.

As a current non-shareholder, this one is staying on my "watch and wait" list. The SP could get cheaper if we have a quiet summer and/or the current unsettled conditions persist and could alsotake a while to recover.

In the near term I would think that there is better value to be had elsewhere. I apologise for changing my mind, but a lot has changed in this company's prospects.

Still, WDIK, PDYOR, etc.

Strewth! Glad I at least managed to avoid this one! ..... Pal of mine was commending it to me a couple of months back ..... I recollect making and actually taking a small profit ..... What chance for this sort of stock, when quality gold shares like POG, and I am sure a bundle of SA mining stocks, take an absolute hammering.

Yup - my Ridge Mining is taking a walloping as well, although I'm not convinced it's entirely justified.

GLA will be a bargain one day. IMHO. Maybe.

Cluff Mining got a good comment in recent "Shares" mag - am watching it. SP down 25% in a month . . .

after last years shake out, this one appears to be bouncing back strongly, is that a golden cross i see two months ago...? seems to have strong momentum behind it...

soul traders - 08 Mar 2007 14:08 - 80 of 81

BT, today's rise could be related to the fact that GLA has a stake in IMY (if memory serves), which has received a takeover bid.

hangon - 08 Mar 2007 17:07 - 81 of 81

Yes it's nearly wholly owned by GLA - odd then that the sp rise today is only 5% whilst IMY rose 50% - this may be the effect of punters buying an illiquid stock - better to buy GLA...glad I did, although I'm not at all sure about our Management - why did they sell-off another investment? Seems GLA is more willing to do Deals, rather than get the shovels out.
