Would you like to comment on TUDs ultra low grade concentrate???? What is being done to bring 2 g/t to 30 or 60g/t?????? Or anything higher than the ridiculous 2g/t????
Stop being Tudiculous. Locked cycle flotation testing was not performed for the Technical Report. One of the recommendations in the Technical Report is for: "Closed cycle (locked) cycle flotation testing to greatly improve concentrate grade, significantly reducing mass pull while maintaining reasonable recovery." The specific recommendation was to perform a $125k test using 200kg of material to reach 10g/t, then "determine optimum primary and secondary grinds, grade versus recovery."
As a result, 2g/t concentrate was never on the table. Even preliminary testing going forward will apparently begin at a minimum of 10g/t.
The Technical Report Flotation Testing also shows that a trade-off exists between flotation time/recovery rate/and concentration levels. Shorter flotation times double the concentration, while reducing the recovery - in the testing done for the Technical Report, the recovery was reduced to 90%. But that's a sliding scale that was not fully investigated either.
I understand that you think you have complete leeway to jawbone down the price of the stock with impunity, since regulators are sleeping (probably with your boss), and it's easy to spin up new accounts to circumvent Stockhouse blocking. I just want to mention a couple of things.
Because Tudor is more than 50% held by insiders (I count the shares held by Teuton to be inside), there will be no benefit in terms of a lowball buyout of the Treaty Creek asset.
In terms of getting attractive pricing on Tudor stock so that you can make more profit with a trading strategy, you may or may not come out of this process OK. It will depend on whether some weak hands sold out at a huge loss and come after you. The folks on this board overall see the value of the gold that's already been discovered and are holding firm to their positions. But I'm seeing a number of forced sales at the market due to margin calls lately. Also folks who are not on the board and panic sell may eventually see your activity, which is high enough in volume and weak enough in accuracy to possibly be an issue for them.
I hope you realize I'm not trying to beat you up here. Just pointing out that in a tough market like this one bad traders get hurt and look for someone to blame, whether or not you're having an impact on stock price. No one of significance is going to modify their trading behavior based on infantile trash talk, but in thinly traded names there might be a question since small volumes can move prices.
Whenever I post something in public I try not to put a target on my back that's too big to miss.
