Doesn't sound to me like anything has slipped officially. The article is rather poorly written in a few places and speculative around timing without a specific rationale being given while still being positive and suggestive of quite good things to come.   Most analysts aren't going to get themselves in trouble by predicting a longer timeline and then looking like heroes if it

[Speedypete]

I truly want to believe this article citing a timeline slip is simply conjecture on the part of Okeef but why would CRE repost the article which headlines "company confirms " on thier X account    Rather than denounce it?   See for yourselves that cre reposted the article from northern miner. Eric did say in the latest crux video "shovel ready by summer"   I

[HopeIBoughtLow]

That is a fair comment and question Speedypete.  It doesn't look great.  But I am still not buying it. Although the X post sounds very confident and certain, the story behind the link didn't change. The article headline itself and the substance of it have not been changed and remain speculative. I believe it is an attempt to click-bait people and they should be taken to task on

[Speedypete]

Agreed Sir.   Although One would have thought  that CRE would not have reposted the article period , but rather simply stated that the timeline remains intact and perhaps they did with "shovel ready".  I wish i knew for sure...

[HopeIBoughtLow]

Not a great look all around. Northern Miner look like hacks.  Likely shoddy work at the writing, editing and Social Media controls. CRE probably did a fast repost because of the featuring of drill results and didn't consider or even pay much attention to the implications of the words in the headline.  TBH, I was annoyed at the way the article claimed truth from conjecture but i

Sometimes I wonder if some guys here are for real... Refer to the presentation - page 19, the famous "conservative" schedule! The constitution start is noted as  green dot and the end is notes as green dot! Between these two milestones there are 31 months! So first production is definitely 2027, and whatever you guys drink, I want to have it too lol

[Speedypete]

From my prospective i have no intention of holding this through to production.  

[HopeIBoughtLow]

That is completely up to you. But then that means you want to get out at some point sooner than that. Right. Any downward pressure on the shareprice or any drag on getting it to move upward is taking money out of you pocket because it will be suppressed in price (and in buyer interest).    Any organization that is contributing to that downward pressure or making false statements is

[Speedypete]

Agreed    I pm'd you.

It's clearly just speculation by the analyst as mentioned in the article.  Matthew can also expect a golden pony from Santa this year, doesn't mean it will happen.  As far as I am aware, only 2026 has come out of management's mouths and that is what they continue to work towards.  Can that get pushed into 2027, obviously, as nobody can predict the future.  All that

[Speedypete]

My point was why would cre repost the article rather than discredit it?   Regardless.   Here is a interesting comment quoted from x regarding the post "Printing a false and misleading headline like this should be punishable by lawsuit.  No company confirmation to support the clickbait statement.  Bad journalism, poor credibility, weak effort at truth.  A good example

[illusion81]

They really can't discredit it as it's just one man's opinion.  If it was worded as fact I.e.  Matthew has confirmed with CRE management that the originally targeted timeline has now been extended into 2027, then management would have a case to refute that if such a discussion in fact never happened.  But the way it's stated in the article is that it's opinion

[HopeIBoughtLow]

Yes... It is one analysts opinion only. And yes I completely agree they're usually about as accurate as a windsock on a calm day. But who controls the Twitter account at Northern Miner... I was able to look past the April 15th article that was a little bit misleading. And I really got annoyed at the April 17th Twitter post. Look at the twitter headline Rose Project Timelines Delayed

[illusion81]

Their grammar sucks, but I believe that they are expecting you to read it as a whole like this... Rose Project Timeline Delayed, Company Confirms a winter drilling campaign at @crecorp 's (TSXV: $CRE; OTC: $CRECF) Rose lithium-tantalum project in Quebec has confirmed a discovery called Rose West.

[Bobbyjohnson]

As you pointed out in the article, they say : Matthew O’Keefe to say he expects no urgency to conclude a deal on the part of Critical Elements’ potential downstream partners. The management seems to have an answer to that comment in the recent NR :  In the interim, management sees no reduction in urgency on the part of lithium end-users to see quality spodumene concentrate

[monkeyhere171]

He based his analysis on the fact that CRE is in no rush to sign a deal. Even Eric said they are happy that they didn't have deal in place during his las two interviews, especially thr Crux one. Likely outcome could be wait to increase the resources and mine life so it becomes attractive to partner as he said now they are looking to give a piece of Rose in exchange of funding. Waiting another
