the private placement price is of course a magnet for the stock price. Our low float, which is gonna work wonders as we start earning money probably by September (earning as in eps!), hurts us with any selling. Being otc of course, and having to compete for brainwaves with thousands of other explo juniors, which is what we are considered until a positive eps starts showing up. A pushed out ceo, a new non-industry ceo, a market that still hates gold companies in general, and juniors in particular, in far off tanzania. Alluvial uncertainty,
Ah, but next year and following. Eps should equal and surpass this share price, possibly as early as 2014 calendar year. I wonder when we will have the 300 ton hour machine ordered (gotta pay from free cash flow, which won't be there till this fall), manufactured, and then moved and installed, tested, then finally upping our production by 150%. 25K-35K oz (a year late) in 2013 x $2600 gold price -$600 cash and noncash costs, minus 34% tax rate (no way of knowing other accounting charges)= eps of current share price.
Grades should finally get some billing sometime before year end, and though skeptics will discount them due to it being alluvial, at least we'll have a marker in the sand. Right now the market isn't paying for reserves anyway, so there's not much loss there.
There simply has to be a huge inflow of funds into this sector first to make a hugely meaningful share price impact. I don't see that happening in the near term months. Gold and gold stocks are still hated and ignored. Before this is all over, teeny tiny gold wanna be juniors will be bid up to now unimaginable heights. Who knows what price 5 years from now people will pay for a ginormous deposit (10M oz, 50 M oz, 100 M oz?) with rock bottom produx costs. Again, I mostly see water volume limitations and TZ gov't confiscation as our chief enemies, once we get cash flow positive.
