if you want something badly, talk it down first...
this is just a tiny sell not even for my account as I said. mine are not for sell anytime soon.
that trade at 16 was a partial fill on a sell I put in on my mother´s account. cant believe I actually bought those shares at 8 just a few weeks ago!!! I did put the sell order today before open and I get the feeling they would had been sold at just about any price... 18? 20? you name it... freakin unbelievable !
GDMN- Goddamn look at that thing !!! 13.75 up 20%
before anybody asks, pink sheet symbol is MMMKF
GDMN: I guess it all depens on wether you bought a few cool thousands at 5 bucks and u are sitting on a big fat profit ( in which case you are vindicated by a group as Sentient buying 40% higher than you) or if you just bought some few k shares for kid and family at 9 and now feel outraged.
time, price and perspective is about everything
good year all
great link,thanks. HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL !!!
can u get LII on Pinks? please post positions if you do TIA
make that 10.75 !!!
http://www.rallymonkey.com/oldvideo.php
How low will it go?
Until Gartmann goes short
GoDaMN !!! what happened to all the paper for sell? nice spread 7.76 X 10 haha
whats your market cap target on MAK if they achieve production smoothly?
u bought that through IB as well??? totally missed it !
:) and with huge volume
let me guess.... his only relation now to others people money is that he sleeps at an ATM ??? ;)
I´ll refrain from answering
very nice meeting their timelines. think I´ll buy a few more. but how they finance remains big question mark...
LOL very funny crazy Texan!
Ecuador Socialista Sociedad Anonima, a nice place to mine gold indeed ...
ticker on AMEX will be AUMN. Sad to me, I really liked the Goddamn thing :)
do I see gold de-coupling from EURUSD ? I mean EURUSD still going down and gold actually up vs. USD. this looks like a very positive development for gold to me, and its even better for all the coins I bought getting rid of my stupid euro notes :)). let hell brake loose on Euro too!!!! people have to understand gold is not about the USD, its about DEBASEMENT of all FIAT PAPER and STUPID POLITICS!!!
AUM.TO nice spread!!! 8.51 X 18.79 LOL
8.74 print om GDMN !!! somebody must have liked the results
hmmm... Hochschild the "partner from hell" (ditto Rob Mcewen) trying to take them over before the IPO takes place?
how much do you think they could offer??
GDMN / AUM.TO : so this means quiet period is over and road show to be started?
GDMN / AUM.TO : from the PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS just released, confirms what you said we might no big seller for long time after IPO
(9) All of our directors and officers, along with Trishield Partners LLC and Scarsdale Equities LLC, have entered into lock-up agreements that
restrict them from selling shares of our common stock until ninety (90) days from the date of the final prospectus for the offering.
AUM.TO going nuts now at 8 bucks CAD. quite a premium over the US side, GDMN..
Maybe you can become Man of the plane (Avion) with some of that big cash bag ... so it doesnt have to travel too far
Avion Discovers Another Gold Zone at Tabakoto With an Intercept of 15.55 g/t Au Over 5.5 Metres
AVION EXTENDS TABAKOTO GOLD MINERALIZATION IN THREE DISTINCT NORTHEAST TRENDING PARALLEL ZONES WITH INTERCEPTS OF UP TO 4.42 g/t Au OVER 15.6 METRES
Press Release Source: Avion Gold Corporation On Wednesday December 16, 2009, 7:30 am
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Dec. 16, 2009) - Avion Gold Corporation ("Avion Gold" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE:AVR - News) presents the new results from 2009 exploration drilling and updated zone interpretations.
Tabakoto Pit area
In 2009, Avion modeled and tested four northeast-trending zones of mineralization that lie both in the historic Tabakoto Pit and just south of the pit (see Figure). Three of the four mineralized trends returned economic grades over mineable widths and are open down plunge.
The NE1 trend lies in the southern part of the Tabakoto pit. On August 17, 2009, Avion released the results of channel samples collected along this trend that returned 108.68 g/t Au (18.24 g/t Au capped at 37.5 g/t Au) over 2.0 metres true thickness, and 25.15 g/t Au (23.47 g/t Au capped) over 2.3 metres (true thickness). This panel of mineralization can be traced along strike for approximately 300 metres and to depth for approximately 400 metres; this zone is still open to depth and partially along strike. Drill testing in 2009 comprised 4 core holes and 29 reverse circulation grade control holes. The core holes were drilled to test the western edge of the NE1 zone with 25 to 35 metre step-outs from previous holes. The RC holes tested a near surface panel approximately 70 metres long by 35 metres in depth in anticipation of developing a shallow open-pit resource. The core holes returned a best intercept of 4.42 g/t Au over 15.6 metres (approximately 12.0 metres true width) (see table at end). Reverse circulation holes indicated the presence of a continuously gold mineralized zone that returned a best value of 17.16 g/t over 9.0 metres (approximately 7.0 metres true width).
Drill testing of the NE1 trend also resulted in the intersection of a potential new, parallel zone of gold mineralization with an intercept of 15.55 g/t Au over 5.5 metres core length.
The Tabakoto South Trend has been traced for 450 metres along strike and is suspected to extend for at least 750 metres along strike. The Tabakoto South trend lies approximately 260 metres southeast, and is parallel to the NE1 zone described above. Within this trend two coherent zones of higher grade mineralization have been identified, the Dabo and Tabakoto South zones (see figure). The Tabakoto south zone has been traced for approximately 300 metres along strike, to 275 metres below surface and is open to depth (see Figure). Four of the six 2009 holes intersected significant gold mineralization with hole T-09-08A returning a best intercept of 4.64 g/t Au over 9.7 metres (approximately 9.3 metres true width). Infill drilling is required since most of the holes are more than 50 metres apart.
The Dabo zone has been traced for approximately 250 metres along strike, to 250 metres depth and is open down plunge (see Figure). Three of the seven 2009 drill holes that pierced this target horizon returned significant values with the best intercept of 4.83 g/t Au over 3.0 metres (2.9 metres true width). More infill and down-plunge drilling is required to test this zone which appears to increase in grade at depth with the best hole returning 7.92 g/t Au over 14.1 metres (approximately 11.0 metres true width).
Don Dudek, Senior Vice President, Exploration commented: "As we explore the Tabakoto pit area, we continue to find ways to expand the resources with the discovery of new mineralized zones and exploration opportunities. Since the mineralized zones are still open, down plunge provides a ready potential source for more resources, which when tested, may lead to the discovery of additional mineralized zones."
Leach and gravity concentrate testing
Leach test and crushing and gravity concentrating free gold studies are continuing and are now expected to be completed near the end of Q1, 2010. While initial leach test work suggests that recoveries of 85% of the gold is possible by leaching, all samples tested to date displayed the presence of gravity-recoverable coarse gold. Gravity recoveries for both the Tabakoto and Segala mines have ranged from 55 to 85% of the total gold content.
Avion's current National Instrument 43-101 compliant Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource is 1.21 million ounces of gold grading 3.48 g/t Au. In addition, Avion's Inferred Mineral Resource is 1.14 million ounces of gold grading 3.50 g/t Au (Avion, May 19, 2009 news release).
Avion's procedures for handling drill core are consistent with industry practice and described in more detail in previous news releases. Avion continues to present assay composites with high grade samples capped at 27.5 g/t Au, which is the capping level deemed appropriate for the Segala Main Deposit and 37.5 g/t Au for the Tabakoto Deposit (Avion: December 12th, 2008 news release).

GDMN.pk : Can anybody see whats the real depth of the ask at 7 ? I keep seeing 1 (as in 100?) even though 300 shares already went in at 7 today.
LGDI: my 2 cents. I looked up at LGDI and passed. This is normally a positive factor for any stock. I bought some MAK.AX. But very little, so still has a chance. And I fell in love with AAA ( that should be the kiss of death for AAA! )
energizer bunny!
I understand thelisting is contingent on SEC review and AMEX approving ? shouldnt we listen about those first?
have you been getting into any new trusts recently?
Looks like Nexen wants to sell their stake in Canexus
Nexen outlines $2.5-billion capital spending plans for 2010
Wed Dec 9, 8:39 AM
The Canadian Press
Email StoryIM StoryPrintable View.By The Canadian Press
CALGARY - Nexen Inc. (TSX: NXY.TO) plans to spend $2.5 billion next year on capital projects in Canada and abroad and also plans to sell about $1 billion of non-core assets over the next 12 to 24 months, depending on market conditions.
The international oil and gas producer, which has its major operations in Alberta, British Columbia and the U.K. North Sea, said its 2010 capital budget calls for spending $1.8 billion on conventional development and exploration.
Calgary-based Nexen will also spend $200 million on unconventional shale gas projects, particularly in British Columbia, and $400 million on oilsands development in Alberta, including $100 million at the Syncrude partnership.
Most of Nexen's spending on oilsands, however, will be at the Long Lake project in the Athabasca oilsands, which it's developign in partnership with Opti Canada Inc. (TSX: OPC.TO).
Opti announced Tuesday it plans a $120-million capital program for 2010, including $92 million for its share of Phase 1 at Long Lake and $23 million for Phase 2 at the oilsands project.
Long Lake, which uses a steam-assisted extraction process that was developed by Opti, has struggled to meet expectations due to unanticipated technical limitations. The two companies believe those problems have been resolved.
"Steaming reliability has improved and this is leading to higher bitumen production. We are confident that we will ramp up to full rates and demonstrate the significant value this project will deliver to our shareholders," Marvin Romanow, Nexen's president and chief executive officer, said in a statement.
The company said that a priority is to keep the Long Lake upgrader full. It said the upgrader is fully operational and approaching its design yields.
"Now that all components of the upgrader are operating as planned, we are focused on maximizing bitumen throughput. We will achieve this by increasing production volumes from our reservoir and by purchasing bitumen from third-parties to enhance returns," the company said.
Despite the cost and effort expended on it, Long Lake is expected to produce only a small fraction of Nexen's overall output next year - in a range of 20,000 to 30,000 oil-equivalent barrels per day before royalties.
In contrast, its North Sea offshore fields will produce 100,000 to 130,000 boe/d, nearly half the projected overall total of 230,000 to 280,000 per day, and Yemen will account for 32,000 to 37,000 bod/d in 2010, although rates in that country are declining.
The company said it has identified a number of non-core assets for possible disposal over the next one to two years, including parts of its marketing business, heavy oil assets in Western Canada and an interest in the Canexus chemicals business.
Nexen estimates it could get $1 billion from such divestitures.
"Assets that are no longer aligned with our main areas of focus will be monetized to maximize value," said Romanow. "We have an excellent portfolio of opportunities with significant captured resource and will focus on these."
Nexen shares closed Tuesday at $24.18, down 57 cents, at the Toronto Stock Exchange.
