We've got a huge turnover here as well. Place is going broke. Shares at 8.5c from 90c a year ago. Still plenty of ore put no puff to keep it running.
Might be a good time to buy?
Are they aussies? we used to be, chinese now. started of as oxiana then merged with zinifex to become ozminerals Now MMG , Bought mines and assets around the world then the GFC came along and we went from getting $8000 a tonne for copper cathode down to about $2000, mine was still making money but we were up a ducks ass by then , Seems to have rebounded massively since the chinamen pumped in the cash , we just took over an aussie company in the congo but i wont be sticking my hand up to go there,
Yep, Aussies.
It's facked up, we ran out of fuel for crying out loud. Then we get fuel and now they've run out of activated carbon. It's a gold mine FFS, the process plant can't run without carbon.
We had the BOS people in the camp yesterday. 8 orangutans on the release programme. I only got pics of the crates cause I was roped in helping load them up and shit.
Loaded them in 2 shifts of 4 in a cargo net under the helicopter.
Pommie shiela from BOS. Volunteer and a good scout. The orangs are in the crates.
