Bad news/Good news

The military rulers in Mali have begun to implement the new mining law.
A large lithium operation will be operated by a Chinese mining company. The Malian government will get 35% of the action up from 20%.
This sort of thing may start hitting close to home.
The good part is that rather than just taking possession of the mine from the previous owner and giving it to the Chinese, they allowed a sale.
So, this gives me hope that B2 might be able to monetize its assets if push comes to shove.
Surely there are plenty of Chinese gold mining companies that would be all over it if the opportunity were there.
In comparing B2's balance sheet to that of other companies, I find that B2 is head and shoulders above many others.
IMO, it is way underpriced primarily because of the Mali situation. If B2 can escape with some renumeration, I think it will be in the shareholders best interest.

A look at what the pundits have to say about B2 shows that it is perceived to be one of the best buying opportunities in the industry. Interestingly, of all the recommendatios I read, not one referred to the geopolitical situation in Mali. Maybe it is being overstated.

Use your own expertise. I'm so tired of all these analysts and experts. I think mostly these days the projections are done by AI systems more than THINKING people. I don't listen to any of it. I bought Fortuna quite a while back. Analysts on RBC where I do my buying kept were projecting that company was going down the drain...$3 12 month target. Well I'm sorry "experts". I ...more

And it's not just africa. Jurisdictions all over the world can abruptly move from "mining friendly" to hostile. Just look at Canada and our oil sands. Or the province of Quebec and the gas fracking along the st Lawrence river valley. Or any "traditional lands" not part of any treaty agreements. Panama, Argentina and/or any one of its neighbours, Etc etc. it's a risk for ...more

"just look at Canada and our oil sands"???? WTF? Production from the oil sands is up 62% since 2016 !!! What are you trying to do? Crash the oil price like the Americans did with frakking in 2014??? https://www.statcan.gc.ca/o1/en/plus/5781-record-high-crude-oil-production-largely-driven-oil-sands-crude-oil-year-review-2023 Overall Canadian oil production is up 33% since 2016!!!

Yes I'm greedy. Greed is good. Our success in the oil sector and with oil sands in particular, has been DESPITE the policies and actions of our federal government. Give your head a shake. If alberta wasn't the champion for oil producers we'd be screwed. If Quebec City ran that portfolio, we'd be screwed. Speaking of fracking, there are a few companies still teetering on the edge ...more

Your right on the Mali project, only reason why I haven't made b2 50 percent of my gold position, but I place my bets mostly on management, and I think this management really knows how to take the best out of there existing properties
