Lets recap

Cash burn prolly 13 mil/ month. Revenue bout 1.5 mill per month... solid. Thats only a net burn of a wee bit over 11 mill per month. Not bad. So if they do another 10 2 1 rollback then a 150 mill pp all will b well. The fish was right go figure. 4 sure. Nuton tech res

 No 10 to 1 RS, IMO; probably wouldn't be approved by shareholders.   I am thinking another PP or maybe a buyout. I think any offer over US$1.25 would be approved.  Pala wouldn't mind averging down and gaining more controlling interest if they haven't hit any threshholds that of which I am not aware.  Or perhaps a different venture capitalist may surface?  ...more

WTF
Comment by nofluff on May 17, 2022 5:27am
Is there mention of any new cash needed?  The last update stated, that if cash was needed, they would forward sell copper. At full production c1 would cost about 3 million per month on top of already spent capital amortization. We are drilling and advancing open pit studies. We are running at half production, so less cost. Right now we likely need 3 million per month total. But lets say 5 as ...more

Hi NF, think your guessing is the realistic case. If you see the report stating that they have achieved plant production availability of 20 days in April ( leading to q1 average of 36) they made very good progress. Additionally they focus on preventive maintenance to enhance the equipment availabilty UG. If there will be no desaster concerning ground conditions, I conclude, that their OEE is ...more  
Comment by westcoast1000 on May 17, 2022 1:09pm
Well, they are certainly not Flush with cash. The revenues are still minimal and their monthly costs are substantial. They drew down their accordian financing with Pala in April. To avoid raising capital they would have to suddenly get successful in production when it has not gone well so far. My guess is they will raise more capital and so see some marginal dilution.
Comment by nofluff on May 17, 2022 1:34pm
So why do you think they will not do what they said and foreward sell some copper wc. Sure, they would have to discount by 10%. But that would only b shirt term. With starting exploration drills on tedyboy and feasibility on op, they do mot seam to worried about cash. nf
Comment by TomsStockHut on May 17, 2022 1:54pm
Hi West, let me refer to the NCU statements regarding OEE ( Overall Equipment Effectiveness). Their is significant progress regarding production plant availability in April: they achieved 20 days, whereas total Q1 was at 36 days. Furthermore, they are undertaking preventive maintenance measures now to reduce unforseen equipment failure UG. I think that Randy is progressing very nicely.... T.

probably ???  ...  see R mathews paste Plant Q3 @ target of 4500 tpd Underground Mine Ramp Up Continues: Underground production continues to ramp up with hoisting rates of a combination of stope ore and development material expected to increase to approximately 3,000 tons per day ("tpd") in Q2 2022 and then further increasing to 4,000 to 4,500 tpd during Q3 2022.

Just in time for the mother of all global recessions and copper falling down a mine shaft....Keep wish thinking and ignore everything around you
Comment by RoyKerr on May 17, 2022 9:18pm
1/3 of china shut down and copper didnt break $4.  supply constraints gonna keep oil, copper, food high. and any social disruption in certsin countries could cause a break out. gold is the shaft metal.

What happens around us: Long-term supply gap exceeds 6 million tons of copper According to Goldman Sachs, copper is increasingly a political market. Supply and demand are influenced by various political decisions. The investment bank cites, for example, the mining policy in Chile, the largest copper country, the massive increase in demand for raw materials due to the switch to ...more

you need to remember, q1 saw a destroyed loader from a collapsed wall, down days, and a non delivery penalty. That could happen again of course, but assuming it doesnt, i would not use q1 as any sort of baseline for q2 cashburn.
Comment by TomsStockHut on May 17, 2022 3:14pm
In addition to RK's post: I would rather look on the improvements they achieved as regards productivity increase in april - that was a good job. Seems to me that some of the posters hate the idea, that Pala could be successfull... T.
Comment by westcoast1000 on May 17, 2022 3:38pm
Personally, I am very eager to see NCU succeed. Believe me, I am highly invested in this company in many ways.

"Seems to me that some of the posters hate the idea, that ..." Tucker couldn't have said it better.  Learn that tactic in the right-wing echo chamber?  It seems to me that you should have just written "some posters" instead of your wordy fluff.  It also seems to me you don't want to tell us how deep you are in this stock as that would explain your ...more

i think they paid - reduxed 10.8M$ bak 2 Payla..  actual burn on theat 15M was around 3.5 which should B ballpark cash flow...  the metrik squeeze is 1500 foot acces points for the stopes and steel encasements..  re-wok them numbrs - see where the actual cash if flowing v/s ore loading...
Comment by TomsStockHut on May 17, 2022 9:21am
Dont underestimate the role of KfW. It is highly likely, that they will play a mayor role to finance the OP, if Pala is able to finance 30% (my guessing) e. g. from UG cash- flow... Remember: Germany needs copper... T.
Comment by bogfit on May 17, 2022 10:48am
" It is highly likely, that they will play a mayor role to finance the OP,..." Totally baseless speculation.  "likely" means more than 50%.  "highly likley" is 80%-90% (?) and Tom's reasoning for making this unrealistic assumption is "Germany needs copper"??? Hey Tom, how far underwater are you?  That would explain your constant ...more  
Comment by RoyKerr on May 17, 2022 11:07am
'germany needs copper' was one of the reasons kf gave for financing the mine at the rates they did. kfw is german govt owned, and their mandate is financing sustainable projects and getting supplies of necessary molecules. US doesnt have cool banks like that, so they have to use the military budget to fund things like australia mining. https://www.kfw.de/About-KfW/Frderauftrag-und ...more  
Comment by bogfit on May 17, 2022 11:30am
No doubt "'germany (sic) needs copper' ", but scarcely more than any other industrialized nation.  Germany will need more copper for their military build up, but IMO their government will be directing funds to purchase metal on the world market rather than continuing to control global reserves.   A book written 50 years ago called "Future Shock" whose premise ...more
