Hi Jon,
Great timing on the GQC call..caught the price sweet spot nicely and looks like plenty of upside. There is a report on Stockhouse on the SD AGM and the management were seemingly very impressive. The assays are in a lab in Dar Salem awaiting testing, the drill targets are already picked and ready for action and the money is now available to move ahead. They expect a revenue stream within the next few months from placer mining. I presume that’s from the 50-50% agreement they have in place with the local miners and all SD have to do is supply them with water which the locals can’t access. So we should have impressive results soon and a stream of revenue to support continued drilling. Also management feel there is a modern gold rush going on in Tanzania and they intend to expand their land package through their existing contacts. An IR firm will soon be appointed to keep us investors up to date with developments and all in all they seem to be giving this project a proper go. I hope this helps other shareholders who like myself were getting a bit worried with progress.

Hi Jon, looking forward to more comments on SD. Not much from the company lately. Also, I was wondering why GBB is getting less attention lately. Is it because the communication lines from GBB is dwindling, or is it just a case of waiting for the next results and or PP to close.
regards,

SFF seems to have a good support at 24 cents. The stock tested a few times at 22.5 cents and quickly bought back at 23-24 cents range. I agree with Jon’s comments and it will move up as soon as the ‘good’ news comes out. It will test the 29 cents mark and how far it can go, it all depends on the drill results. Be patient …
GBB is another stock that we need a lot of patience, currently at 59 cents and it is going up slowing after a good consolidation at 55 cents level.
