What is with the name CancunCharlie???
Well, those nice bikini girls in my pic were on a beach in Cancun. I've gone twice and LOVED it!
I'm going to fund future tropical vacations with my stock profits!
GO SNEY
do you really think we'll see 3 cents TODAY?!?
Charlie
Up Down Up Down
Sounds like the backseat of a high school date, only THIS one is giving me money!!
Got in with my first buy of SNEY just YESTERDAY! Good Golly I feel GREAT about that! So great that I sold some more of my SGCP to get another chunk of this stuff!
Hey! Why is it starting to dip down?? Get it going to 3 cents!
Charlie
Risk On made me laugh! I don't PM.....
My bikini girls are waiting on the beach, but they are picky about guys having ALL their own teeth. ha
GLTA
charlie
I'm IN!
Just bought my first block of SNEY.
let the filing begin!
That's what I was thinking..... Why is this thing back in the red???
But silly me, I thought a stock would move on good news.
I don't understand.......
OUR PPS should have a fire under it right now. We had a FR Friday and now this CC news.... which is FANTATIC NEWS.... and no fire yet.... I thought we'd be untouchable after a few minutes.
I looked up BICS, and THEIR stock isn't trading AT ALL. I don't know why that is. Any thoughts as to why? They have a Bid, but no Ask.
Charlie
Greetings Everyone!
I've been reading up on this company for the last couple of days, and tomorrow I may make my first purchase to get me started on this position.
I've spent the last couple of years invested with another company that is dredging in Sierra Leone, so I'm a little familiar with the area.
How many dredges does SNEY currently have in SL? Is it 2, or 3?
Do you think we'll see a production report from this Pampana operation in the near future?
I've read through the concerns regarding the lack of reporting financials, and I'm not nervous about it. in fact, I belileve them when they say they will 'get caught up' in May. That;s why I'm thinking about getting in now, before they report and this thing jumps.
Charlie
ask @ 21!!
if a PR came out now...... or even a FR would get it movin'
Has the Property tab been changed too??
It lists 5 joint venture projects and I don't remember seeing this here before.
from the page:
http://sierragoldcorp.com/property.php
Joint venture areas by district;
1.Kono district Sierra gold corp. has 2 joint ventures located in Tefeya and Sandia
2.Konduga district Sierra gold corp. has 2 joint ventures in Bafodia and 2 joint ventures north of Kabala
3.Tonkolli district Sierra gold corp. has a large joint venture on the Pampana river east of our 40 sq/km concession
4.Mali joint venture is located outside of Bamako which is on the Mali/Guinea border
5.1 joint venture in Kamaklia in the kabala district
This is all GREAT NEWS! I'm glad they are finally updating their website.
Great Find!! And I hope that it is also released in a PR, being a material change in the company.
Maybe tomorrow they'll issue a PR for this and include the latest production results.
Anyone have any info on this?
http://sierragoldcorp.com/photos.php?pageNum_Recordset1=5&image=104.jpg
This is a link to a website photo titled
Opening a new exploration site near Liberian Border
I looked at a map of SL and that's probably close to the Moa river. They posted a picture of this, but then I haven't heard of anything else about this site.
Charlie
Someone keeps Splashing BIG TIME! another million right after I posted, and then once more......
Someone is buying this up with million share chunks! Good for them. :)
Charlie
I didn't "paint", I splashed with another 150k shares at 19 just a few minutes ago.
I'm back in with everything and then a little more.
waiting for the news..... it's gotta be good, right???
Thanks. You're one of the good guys, B4.
B4, if 250 is LOW, then what number were you thinking that would be just about right? You can PM me if you don't want to start expectations......
Charlie
I believe we will have a FR or maybe even a PR THIS WEEK or next week at the latest. Why? well, we seem to be getting a FR once a month and we are about due for one of those, and because of what was in the last PR.
Quote:
Doug Evans, Chairman and CEO, left for Sierra Leone on April 5, 2011 to review current mining and agricultural operations.
Then we have the shareholder offer to go to SL that Cork told us about..... it would be for 12 to 14 days, right? Well ... is that a standard tour for Doug to spend about 2 weeks in SL?
If all the above is true, then Doug should be back from SL and maybe he will want to tell us about the latest Production numbers as well as the details of the farming expansion.
I'm hopeful.....
Charlie
Duped... I NEVER said that the gravel was a bust!!! You twisted and perverted my words to fit your own agenda, or you are in need of your 5th grade English Teacher to help you comprehend things when you have to read more than 3 sentences at a time.
What I said, and I even highlighted this, was that the wash plants are not keeping up with the dredges. I said that the wash plants are behind by at least several weeks or more than a month. I said that the 105 oz is from the sand and overburden and therefore 105 oz is a figure that makes sense if it is indeed from just the overburden and NOT THE GRAVEL!
I'd hate to see how you interpret a newspaper.
I'm looking forward to the next production report. I hope it's in a PR.
Charlie
I would rather the whole world knew, not just those that call
Thanks B4. I respect your opinion. Not that I don't respect others, but you have a solid background and an open mind to others.
Charlie
Cork, you missed my point.
I KNEW they were already through the overburden. Make any comparison you like, but they were ALREADY through it in feb for some dredges and early march for ALL dredges.
Therefore, I thought the production numbers would INCLUDE gold from concentrate from ANCIENT gravel.
Therefore, the disappointment.
I’ve been giving a lot of thought as to WHY the production numbers were so low when most of us were expecting much more. If you don’t want to read my opinion, then don’t. I’ve got to say that all this chest thumping and spreading of peacock feathers by others stating their superior business experiences certainly didn’t help anyone. And for someone to actually tell me that they want to take my Cancun Girls from me…. Well, believe me, they aren’t interested! It was all I could do to hold their interest long enough to take this picture! Ha!
Let me give you MY theory on this using MY production experience. We have basically a two step production process that is unbalanced. (maybe more steps than that, but let’s go with two) Our dredging capacity has been greatly increased from 1 dredge to at least 5, but do we only have 2 or maybe 3 wash plants to wash the concentrate from the dredges and pull the gold and diamonds out? I think it’s obvious that the wash plants can’t keep up with all the concentrate that we are producing, and that’s ok because we can continue to wash during the rainy season.
How far behind ARE the wash plants? 2 weeks? 4 weeks? Maybe more? I’ve been assuming that we were washing concentrate from the ancient gravels that the message board talked so much about. I KNOW we’ve been dredging gravel since February, but maybe the wash plants just haven’t gotten that far yet. And what are these “sophisticated technologies”? from the FR “a large quantity of high-grade concentrate has been recovered and retained for future processing using more sophisticated technologies.” Do these sophisticated technologies take longer? Is this something that will be explained in the “geology section on the web page? Maybe they should include a equipment section for us so we’ll know how much equipment we have and how much of each type.
They won’t know how much gold has been dredged until they wash the concentrate! Are they washing concentrate in a first in - first out process? If so, then the 105 oz is from the sand and overburden, NOT the gravel, and then THAT would make sense for why we had ONLY 105 oz.
If this is true then I wish John (the president) would have explained it this way. He could have saved us all a lot of worry.
Anyway, that is my two cents. Just thought I’d share it with you.
Charlie
This is good news! But it sounds like only two corner stores. Isn't this much bigger than that? Anyway, I like the fact that they are announcing news and selling more product!
And I'm glad I got in last week while it was low!
Charlie
ok, I'm in! just bought 200k to get some skin in this game.
Sounds like there are a couple possible future announcements that could get this to take off.
A patent, audited financials, uplisting stock sometime is still in their goals, aquiring new customers, etc.
I'm in
Charlie
Is this a good time to get in? I had some of this a year ago and got out. After seeing that interview with that HOT chick, well, I'm thinking about getting back in.
No doubt about it.. PR's work and are great things! Anyone gonna try to beat me to the open?
Charlie
I totally, totally agree! If you don't have a good set of cheerleader pom poms, then most people here would rather not hear it.
buy low, sell high, NEVER fall in love with your stock
God, that is GREAT advice someone once gave to me!
Charlie
It's a re-cap of the last year. What's disrespectful about that? It would be funny if it weren't true.
BTW, the PR siad nothing new.... I'm sure John knows more info than that. Nothing about the JV, or the "future processing using more sophisticated technologies." What ARE those technologies? You'll just have to call the guy and then share with us! Me, I've got a job to go to.
Speculator777 I agree
Quote:
I want to go another 2-3 years without a PR. None of these flim-flam PR's every 6-9 months, just to put one out there.(sarcasm)
****
yes! and let's get all of our communication by spending an hour or two on the phone talking directly with the president, or maybe someone just might share some crumbs from their private calls. They can give us tid bits which we love to receive about our investment. I'd hate it if the entire world knew how great this stock is. They might want to speculate and invest and I wouldn't want THAT!
And we LOVE to hear about the broken dredge, moving dredge, sick dredge operator, bad gas in the dredge, where is the JV dredge?? I don't know.... but there sure is a lot of sand in there!
And the password to the only communication we've got is stuck in the head of a trapped tourist in flooded Thailand.
And of course, my favorite.... the rivers will stay high until the wind changes direction. It may have stopped raining, but until the wind blows right then the water will just stay high. Can't change that now, can we.... The answer my friend, is blowin' in the wind!
And I KNOW we'll get a PR just as soon as Doug returns from SL because a FR said so. Wait, Doug returned over 3 weeks ago. I know because someone called and told us so.
WOW! Let's all wait another 2 years for a ROI because our money certainly won't do any good with any other investment. Besides, isn't it fun to see our portfolios drop by 20, 30, 40 percent just to test our loyality. Wow, I see 18's are UP.
Poor man who sold at 24 and 23 yeah RIGHT! I'm poor because I held onto most of it and I'll wait with the rest of you for something good to be tossed our way.
Sarcasm? or Sour beause we're stuck in a Chasm?
Crusader is correct.... tic tic tic tic
Time is IMPORTANT
GO SGCP!!
Charlie
What happened to the JV dredge operator? Did someone here say that they heard from John that the operator was gone? Would have been nice to hear an update about this in the FR...
and they got 32 oz during the rainy season in the last PR July 1 to Oct 31. I was just expecting so much more with the dry season and with 5 dredges. I'm sorry to hear about the head operator getting sick with malaria, but did the other dredges stop working without him? One dredge gets 32 oz when it's flooding and 5 dredges get 105 oz when it's dry? Just doesn't add up to me.
When I saw the FR I KNEW the PPS would drop, so the first 1.5 million sold at 24 was part of my families investment, and the 23's and 22's soon after were part of my investment. We still have a lot here, and I'm hopeful it will recover someday soon.
I've called myself an average Joe, and I'm learning the hard way from some of your advice.... "Don't fall in love with a company". I'll buy back low if I think it's dropped low enough, like maybe 15, and sell again after the PR brings it back up. After that.... I'll have to re-evaluate how much I want to keep here. I've gained a lot of knowledge about SGCP and feel it's time for me to make a little $$$ from it.
Buy low, sell high, don't fall in love.
Charlie
Gem, weren't you expecting AT LEAST 500 oz?? I'm just hearing too many excuses. A few excuses once in a while I can believe, but at every corner we have several more excuses. Red flag? It is to me.
Charlie
Sorry guys, but I’m not as happy or optimistic as most of you seem to be. When I called John several weeks ago he told me a couple of dredges were already in the gravel in Feb and ALL of them would be in the gravel in early March. If that were true, then the numbers should be a lot higher than just 105 ounces. Also, we should have received the numbers in a promised PR, not a FR. What happened to getting a Press Release ‘When Doug returns from SL”??
I’m seeing red flags and moving some of my stock out. I’m still holding some long, but my trust level is a lot lower than it was yesterday.
Charlie
Wowzers!! 29 just traded AGAIN!!!!!
remember the catsup commercial "Anticipation".....
Of course I'm serious. Do you really think that a webmaster is having trouble hitting the send key and updating the page? It's being delayed for a reason. All IMO, but what's yours if not waiting for the PR??
Charlie
Maybe the webmaster is waiting for the PR to hit before releasing the new Field report?? The FR most likely expands on whatever is in the Press Release.
Just added some more to top off the tank! I'm getting close to the 4 million club!! YaaaaaHooooooo!!!!
(I'm getting my confidence back!)
GO SGCP
GO SGCP!
Charlie
I’ve been on the sidelines quietly reading ALL your posts because just like ALL of you, I’m anxious and yes… nervous. No, that doesn’t mean I should SELL everything and get out, just that I’m concerned, as are a lot of us. And I appreciate the crumbs of info thrown out to us from time to time from those in better contact than I, although I wish it were more. BTW, B4, you’ve been very silent. I value your input even more now.
I have a theory that HASN’T been talked about yet, so I’ll share it with you. We’ve become focused on why they had to sell more shares to raise capital IF they are getting so much gold out of the rivers. I’ve connected the dots and it make sense to me.
What if they have found enough platinum to make it profitable to mine for that as well as the gold and diamonds? Wouldn’t it take a lot of capital to set up that process? And remember the mission statement in the home page
"It is the aim of Sierra Gold Corporation to acquire and develop gold and other precious and base mineral properties to increase shareholder value."
http://sierragoldcorp.com/index.htm
That would also explain why the geology section is currently blank. Once they announce what they are doing, then maybe they’ll tell us how they extract the Platinum, or whatever else they are getting. And didn’t John give us a hint of that by publishing the geology report with ALL those other minerals besides just Gold?
Thinking in this way makes me feel better about trusting them and holding tight until we see a PR or FR.
All IMO, of course. Doesn’t it make sense?
Charlie
At least 2 or 3 of you MUST have called John or Doug yesterday to find out what is going on. But I haven't seen very much posted about ANY of these calls. c'mon guys... cough it up. Every time I've called John I've posted plenty of details about the call for all to read. I assumed that was one of the benefits of being a part of this board. Please share with the rest of us!
Charlie
Can we all agree that we've been "played" here?? 'ol Joe and his kitchen videos had no meat and were just a pump. Why would he do that? oh yeah, he IS a major shareholder, isn't he?
All IMO of course, but what other opinions are out there?
Charlie
Congratulations to Meltinglass and Grawsha!!
You guys have BOTH had some excellent posts and shared plenty of DD with us!
Charlie
B4, thanks for the info. I've got to be honest though and say I'm getting nervous.
I don't want to turn negative here, but I got a bad feeling when someone posted that John told them that it would take several more weeks for John to find out what the production numbers are. I know that John has almost daily contact with the dredge operators. John KNOWS what the current numbers are.
That really got me worried. I hope that was just a bad posting and that his info was wrong.
What I'm really hoping for is a PR tomorrow. Maybe something on the agri. deals if they want to wait for April 1 for the 1st qtr results. Then SOON after April 1 I would like to see another PR on the great first quarter we're having.
The cost of two PR's shouldn't be an issue anymore since we are now a profitable company.
I hope John is reading these....
Charlie
GO SGCP!
