Ann: Opuwo Project Update and Board Changes, page-127

Wow sh*t go guys, hard to take but keep your heads up and I know its super cliché but seriously take this as a learning experience, I definitely did, hopefully anyone didn't lose an unmanageable amount. Go back and read the announcements leading up to this especially the so called 'SS'.

The first alarm bell for me was the delay in SS, this is what initially pricked my ears up, didn't sell any after this because was still hopeful, second was the met works on the SS, there was enough info on there for me personally to sell out in a couple of days after this release. Didn't know whether to mention it as i still wasn't entirely sure but I noticed that the goal posts had moved considerably and the language had changed compared to earlier announcements, third was when Gecko started selling out. I still wasn't sure after this, but the risk profile of the company had increased according to what I was expecting.

This was my 'ticket out' stock along with a lot of others , this was the one, I did leave a lot of paper money on the table after all the delays etc but thankfully did not lose overall, pretty much break even, but at the same time gained a lifetime of knowledge. I have my own parameters that i'm pretty much adding to every day, and for the time being with the big boys playing games with battery metal prices, they are successfully sinking a lot of the smaller hopefuls, this is what they do, this is what they have done forever. Anyway apologies for the long post, good luck guys and again keep your heads up, will feel sh*t for now and probably the next couple of weeks but 100% it will pass.
