From Clarus Today

 Emerita Resources Corp.EMO-TSX.V: $1.81 (mid-market)Rating: Speculative BuyTarget: $5.00Maintaining Conviction in Emerita’s Ability to Deliver on Aznalcollar
We highlight the consistent progress EMO has made towards delivering on milestones in respect to the IBW (now 100% owned) and Aznalcollar projects.  We believe the progress to date firmly validates two critical points:
 
1.     The Spanish legal system works;
2.     Emerita management’s ability to successfully navigate the Spanish legal system.
 
Overall, the company’s progress to-date gives us confidence in the Spanish judicial system with regard to the Aznalcollar case and in Emerita’s ability and strategy to resolve the legal dispute under Spanish law.
 
In the attached PDF, we lay out the progression of events to date.  As a reminder, the prevailing market/investor opinion at the start of these journeys was very cynical, with Emerita not expected to win either of these projects.  We highlight that Emerita was awarded the IBW project in Sep. 2020, after a six year long legal administrative dispute against the then Junta government.  While the wheels of justice grind slower than anticipated in Spain, we believe the Aznalcollar case is in its final stages of Oral hearings (read sentencing) in the Criminal Court case, with a date for the hearings expected to be announced in the ‘Spanish’ near-term.  The process so far has been delayed due to COVID and several judges taking early retirement.  Importantly, a lead judge (ngel Mrquez Romero) has now been assigned for the criminal case, indicating that this final process is now well underway.  If any of the 16 individuals are found guilty, the original tender will be disqualified, and the property will be awarded to the next qualified bidder at the time of the initial tender, which is Emerita in this case.
 
The Criminal Court is the higher court vs Administrative Court.  As a result, we feel it was a prudent strategy for Emerita to request the Administrative Court to align its ruling with the Criminal Court to minimize risk on the final outcome of the dispute (refer Clarus note dated May 2, 2022).  We further note that all levels of the Criminal Court to date have ruled in Emerita’s favour, confirming criminal charges on the members of the former Junta gov and Minorbis – a trend we firmly believe will continue.
 
As investors wait for the court decisions, drilling/exploration news flow will be ramping up from the recently permitted Romanera and El Cura projects as well as from the 100% owned Neuvo Tintillo asset located near Aznalcollar.

Clarus is a desperate pump & dump outfit trying to pump their warrants and failed attempt at supporting the market. The importance of the criminal court decision is that it's required for precedence consideration in the administrative court otherwise they wouldn't delay a decision. It's a negative outlook on the entire thing because they don't have enough an argument without ...more

So, what's your agenda? Short? Bash and buy? Disgruntled? No, you can't choose altruistic savior.
Comment by Fyordian on May 04, 2022 10:27am
Organic price discovery. Waiting for another round of Clarus capital underwriting to flip a quick buck off of it. As soon as they enter an engagement with EMO, Clarus will enter blackout period, and that's when you know to buy for the next round of real pumps. Nothing, but desperate attempts to prevent a slowbleed YTD, so that they can keep the ship above water during blackout.

So, translation. Bash and buy. And you think your posts will influence the price even one iota? LOL. Clearly Clarus doesn't "move the market". Nobody gives a rat's patootie what I post. You must be EF Hutton or something.
Comment by Fyordian on May 04, 2022 11:27am
Oh? Is there another buyer in the market that I'm missing? Interesting. You should see Clarus' volume profile on a timeseries basis, that's a rough dose of reality. I'm not trying to influence the market, you missed the part where I specified "organic price discovery". House Positions for C:EMO from 20220301 to 20220504 House ...more

What were the original capital resource qualifications when the original project was opened for bids?

Back in 2015, EUR$200M estimated project costs and 30% was required upfront. Adjusted for conservative inflation, EUR$250M today, converted @ EURCAD 1.35 = CA$340M. CA$340M x 30% = CA$102M capital. With optimistic assumptions of holding all else constant, fully diluted and fully exercised. EMO needs another CA$35M to meet the upfront qualifications. Only way that happens is by additional ...more

All valid points, but nothing earth shatteringly new. I'd be interested in their worst case analysis of emo without Azna. Someone's going to own it. If not emo, probably a major. Glencore,teck,chinese,india,Aussie come to mind. Wont matter because whoever it is will inevitably buy emo as well. So my question for Clarus would be ..... at what price? You got a connection to varun?

By the way, I got a note from Research Capital today as well, reiterated speculative buy and $4 target.
