Yeah he had obviously set himself up as a consultant being paid to do a job.
Maybe there was some personal liability safety in that.
I do hope his liability insurance is fully paid up, he may be needing that maxed out, when the law suits come.

Meanwhile, an observation from the ping pong table, which has been decidedly wobbly since a certain digger driver backed into it.

Recently buyers @.2c stood at $7K, now over $108K worth.

Matt won't sue the company if he wins what does he get?The company has no assets and no money(some would say thanks to him).So he could end up with owning the whole lot.

If he loses he has huge legal bills to pay.

So it's a lose lose situation for him,he would be an idiot to sue,and he is no idiot,thats for sure

Three months notice ($90,000) is a small price to pay to get rid of him.
I laughed when I read this, "For the period of Matthew Hill's three month notice period he will be acting
with reduced delegated authority as Chief Executive Officer"

He didn't do a lot when he had full delegated authority :eek2:.
I wonder how those Australian "sophisticated and institutional" investors are feeling now having just fronted up with $AU670,000 only to see the rights issue disappear, along with the CEO and Board and secretary. (maybe they've got a way of getting out of it?)

I wonder if Matty and his family will be holding on or dumping their 68 million shares?

Maybe about $1.5 million in the bank? (can't be bothered to check)

So, going forward I will be looking forward to the new NTL Board releasing an in depth, honest, transparent and fiscally detailed report into the future strategy of this company. After all Jonu's got 84 million reasons to get that gold out!!!

While its currently still accurate, I don't think it's fair on Jonu to have any new comers to this forum think negative thoughts about NTL without doing their own research. And it's likely Matt Hill is going to be no more in 3months time - It's going to be a gift for shareholders for Christmas.

I think Matt could rightly argue that he may have lost the final battle, but won the war based on the salary he pulled out of NTL.
Wonder if he will hold or sell?

Totally agree. Better to have no comments attached to the company names and to no longer have NTL separated away from the main NZX forum as a pariah. Can we leave this with you Vince?

As I mentioned on HC forum, with Matt out, he can probably start selling his shares. He really needs to be complimentary about Jonu and hope he can get stuff done if he wants to make some coin. The days of him getting a fat cat salary from us are gone, so now he will need to sell shares to make money.

Meister
14-10-2021, 07:28 PM
While I am pleased at this recent turn of events, doesn't it signal the end of the line? It is great that the trash is being taken out, but by so quickly throwing him out it almost confirms that Jonu was wrong this entire time, and that things are really not looking good at all. As most on this forum complained, Matt hasn't been leading the company in the right direction, and getting gold out of the ground may well be incredibly difficult or costly from here out, we just don't know. Despite the 'victory' in ousting Matt, this doesn't actually feel like a positive place to be. Poor Jonu now has the fight for his life to try salvage the value of his shares somehow.

Discl: Sold shares years ago now, very very unlikely to buy back in.

His style on the HC thread is too similar to ignore. Maybe I’m a conspiracy theorist but the best thing that has happened for NTL is the CEO departure. We are in for hard times, no doubt, but i would rather pay Jonu a directors fee than Matt a salary. I’m hanging in by my fingernails at this point.

Yep, got bored of the day job of bleeding NTL dry as soon as he was dumped, so working on other "projects" with same "Bullish" style we all know.

Very well informed of all things NTL, you dont get that without the kind of knowledge he has.

Nup, he is just looking to find new ways to make the money he will soon be losing.

I am sure on all those years of 400k he will have a lot of investments to manage.

Saw him at one AGM, grab a cell phone from a protesteor, you could see he is a classic ausie battler with an evil bent.

A bit of background evidence which helped me make this accusation.


Good to see Matthew Hill buying more NTL. SPP and on-market.

I've done some research into the guy, he has a surprisingly successful background rubbing shoulders with some enormous companies.

Happy to share if anyone is interested.


And in reply to a lengthy Bullish post


This is consistent with my analysis.

I was never all that worried about the judicial review so didn't consider that a huge risk. However, for those who fear legal action it's safe to say that the bulk sampling programme will go ahead. This means revenue.

Revenue is a good thing for companies and for valuation of companies.

Mining companies, particularly those which are evolving from explorer to developer to producer may very well be "rerated" by analysts and investors.

Seeing as the path has been unfolding and progressing at a good rate I have more confidence in my NTL investment than any time previously. Hence partaking in the SPP (and numerous SPPS in the past to varying degrees).

Might be time to start sharing some more of my research about NTL (and BPL.ASX too for that matter).

It very well could be if you take into account the in depth very persuasive posts on HC by robbo24 every time NTL was in a raising capital exercise.

Obvious to me it was robbo24 being the HC persuader at the same time Bullish & Epithermal was on ST.

It's not a coincidence. Daddy seems to know a lot more about things than shareholders did, long after he had left the board. He got the inside info from somewhere.

Well that's the FMA's accusation isn't it?

Matt as "Bullish" was hard at work here on ST, mostly around CR time. Robbo24 was busy around the same times on HC's NTL forum (was also a member here briefly) & it just makes sense that it was his clued up father & former chairman of NGD.

FMA seem pretty toothless, would they pass it on to SFO if they felt sufficient grounds.

Role of FMA

The Financial Markets Authority enforces securities, financial reporting, and company law as they apply to financial services and securities markets.

We also regulate securities exchanges, financial advisers and brokers, trustees and issuers - including issuers of KiwiSaver and superannuation schemes. Shortly we will also regulate auditors.
Role of the SFO

The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) was established in 1990 under the Serious Fraud Office Act in response to the collapse of financial markets in New Zealand at that time. The SFO is a criminal law enforcement agency tasked with the investigation and prosecution of serious or complex fraud and financial crime. Its Financial Markets and Corporate Fraud team specialise in addressing criminal offending in financial services and securities markets.

I'm not an expert on such matters, but if they were sophisticated and professional enough I would think they would have had an escape clause if the anticipated contractual terms and conditions were not met.
The cancellation of the rights issue would be one such matter imo?!

obviously some element of hired expertise may become necessity, not seeking

Shareholder notice of compensation received from former chairman claiming damages !!

28-10-2021, 11:12 AM
Claim Received
New Talisman Gold Mines Limited (NTL) advises it has received a claim from Matthew Hill for constructive dismissal asserting that Mr Hill is an employee, contrary to the contractual position between NTL and Asia Pacific Capital Group Limited (APAC) agreed in March 2014. Given the position taken by APAC, NTL considers the contractual relationship has come to an end with immediate effect.
Mr Hill asserts he is entitled to various employment related entitlements and compensation, provisionally quantified at $892,000.
NTL does not accept that Mr Hill has been an employee and denies the claims.
NTL has recently identified a number of matters of concern arising from the conduct of APAC and Mr Hill throughout the period of the APAC contract and has reserved its rights to make its own claims against APAC and Mr Hill.

What an unpleasant human being Mr Hill is.

I only know enough legal to get me into trouble, but if NTL had been deducting PAYE from the payment to APAC, then that would indicate being an employee. If NTL hadnt been deducting, and they should have been, then problem for NTL too.

Nasty business

If NTL were to switch the call forwarding at headquarters back to the CEO, as it was a couple of weeks ago when I rang it, I'm sure there will be an ample number of shareholders that would be more than happy to ring up and make things uncomfortable for him.

Matt didn't seem to like the question I put forward to him very much as he simply muttered & hung up on me.

So when are you going to step down as CEO Matt?

So when are you going to step down as CEO Matt?

Reading the release it looks like it has been terminated with immediate effect given the tactics he has chosen to pursue. I guess it will come down to contractual obligations that he is unlikely to have met for the last few years, and if he was an employee, in my view they have restructured if anything, new board have voted him out as a contractor and replaced the contracted ceo with an operations manager with mining experience. Hard to fight that matt.

Employment law has a tendency to favour the employee - so will have to tread lightly - will be ironic if NTL (as a business) have been doing the wrong thing by APAC, as the only person running the place was Hill - shafted himself, but hopefully not the "New" NTL

Yes all of this is a nasty business. The problem with it is it is a further distraction to the task of getting the mine operating and producing gold. Always best to stay well clear of companies that get involved in litigation. Too much stress and distraction to the task at hand. Jonu took on a big job and it has been made even harder for him.

Claim Received
New Talisman Gold Mines Limited (NTL) advises it has received a claim from Matthew Hill for constructive dismissal asserting that Mr Hill is an employee, contrary to the contractual position between NTL and Asia Pacific Capital Group Limited (APAC) agreed in March 2014. Given the position taken by APAC, NTL considers the contractual relationship has come to an end with immediate effect.
Mr Hill asserts he is entitled to various employment related entitlements and compensation, provisionally quantified at $892,000.
NTL does not accept that Mr Hill has been an employee and denies the claims.
NTL has recently identified a number of matters of concern arising from the conduct of APAC and Mr Hill throughout the period of the APAC contract and has reserved its rights to make its own claims against APAC and Mr Hill.

I was sucked into the NTL story a few years ago in my investing innocence but managed to get out with some of my shirt before it all turned to custard.

I hope this is a turning point for NTL and some transparency is finally provided on whether money is actually to be made at an economical cost of whether the old timers got the proper stuff.

Hopefully shareholders manage to get their moneys worth in a few years and NTL becomes a worthwhile investment again.

Back in the Day I invested in HGD.

Stuck with the Story. Saw some Red Herrings.

Believed some NTL coms.

Contacted Matt Hill via voice call a number of times for reassurance.

Listened to him on the phone.

Then saw The Writing on the Wall to Sell Out.

Feel so sorry for all Investors who hadn't got lied to.

Participated in a number of cap raises.

Naively bought in to their BS to be honest.

Thankfully saw the light after last year's online ASM where they looked and acted untrustworthy and sold completely out within a week or so to get out with a modest loss.

I feel sorry for everyone who didn't get out...

Interesting appointments
New Talisman Gold Mines is pleased to announce the appointment of two new
independent directors, Ms Samantha Sharif and Mr Michael Stiassny, to the New
Talisman Board.


Chairman John Upperton stated:" I am delighted to welcome two new directors
of such calibre to the Board. Both Michael and Samantha have observed the
shareholder activism that prompted positive change at New Talisman and it is
heartening to have their support and expertise in realising the company's
potential. These are exciting times to be involved and working with a team
that sees that potential, and that has the ability to deliver results for
shareholders and wider stakeholders. It is also pleasing that the Board has
been restored to full complement"

For Jonu to achieve what he did in such a short space of time is really impressive, not forgetting the stress he would have been under during that process. that should not be under-estimated. The quality of the communications (I read all the NZX releases today), having the backing of the majority of shareholders, and re-building the destroyed capacity to a better standard so quickly - I am blown away. I suspect the incumbents under-estimated his capability and tenacity. Notch one up for Jonu and shareholder activism.

Seems to me listing on the ASX is a constraint on the NZX trading as it usually trails the NZX price, has low volumes, and is several hours behind. Many NZers are reluctant to trade in Australia with its tax and registration complications.

Jeez nztx. You posted at 3.13am this morning. The only reason I’d be awake at that time and unable to sleep was if I had shares in this company. :scared: ;) I'm sure you haven't lol!

From the AGM five weeks ago: “We spent a good part of the year investigating and pursuing less capital
intensive paths that would enable treatment of Talisman ore without major capital outlays by the Company. Joint ventures, toll treatment arrangements etc. Those options despite at varying times showing some promise proved to be illusive, influenced at times by non-financial considerations, that are bought into play by the complex environment in which we operate”.

Then Hill has been quoted as saying at the AGM it would need $12 million to get the mine into production.

Where’s all the money going to come from to do all this, and what mugs are going to buy shares in the newly to be spun off company with fairy tale fantasies of gold exploration in Vanuatu?

There has been far too much di*king around courtesy of Hill at the helm while he has been filling
his pockets at stakeholders expense ;)

And a fair amount of BS fed to stakeholders to cover it .. One would have thought that Hill had
or should have had the connections & experience to get things going / happening, or did that only
extend to flicking off extra blocks of NTL Shares into the laps of his mates & those on his contact list ? ;)

The job needs first of all to establish there is ample stated resource there
Secondly a finite timeframe for getting a Commercial Mining Licence
Third - Issues on processing Ore
Fourth - How to Finance it - Loans / Gold Loans / whatever

Let's face it - some Aussie & Offshore Mining outfits in many places have covered all this
in a fraction of the time in which NTL has seemingly been moving at a snails pace


As we have all seen - Hill's past indications on say $12 Mil or whatever needed have usually turned into yet another dallop needed after that, and another lot a few years later & more a year later .. a continual rinse & repeat, with very little tangible progress ;)


If we look at the Wealth Destruction to Shareholders this would be considerable - likely a fair chunk
of all the Cap Raises over the past decade

Enough fuel for a large Shareholder Class Action against Nader & Hill ? ;)

The latest resource estimate at the Talisman contained in the company's 24/6/20 announcement is 380,000 equivalent ounces of gold. The cost to mine and process it I recall from AGM's has been estimated at around $1,000 (US?) per ounce. At today's gold price of around $US1800/oz this makes the profit around $NZ400 million or 12 cents a share. Suggest you access the publicly released reports on the NZX to get all the background. Very rough numbers and obviously the challenge is cashflow to realise the profit. The costs are also needing further review by the new Board.

I'd be very wherry relying on any releases to market prior to Jonu gaining his seat on the board.

The previous boards underlying intent wasn't to mine gold, it was to mine shareholders. Therefore I consider anything put in black and white prior to a month or so ago very suspect.

If you want to have a go as a complete punt right now, then your odds of making some serious cash is better now then a couple of months ago with the current s/p level. But if you want to "invest" into something you believe to be real, I'd wait for the dust to settle & get some more reliable information on the future intentions & direction of NTL from the new board.

I don't think any previous cost can be relied upon when they still don't know if & how to extract the ore or how it will be processed. I. E capex for a plant which with such small scale in my view is unlikely to warrant the spend or do they get it toll treated in Australia which means a large volume of ore to be shipped. So lots of questions to be answered.

Yes the cost to get to production will be the issue. Looking back I can see that there was an honest intention to actively mine gold. This is obvious because of all the time and money spent on the mine rehabilitation and ventilation.
It all went to custard when they tried to get into the Dubbo vein and found that it was unsafe to mine that area. I believe that the high gold grades in that area were the low hanging fruit and was going to contribute substantially to progressing the mine. After the Dubbo collapse there was no good news just incomprehensible delays and bad decisions. Now we are left with a mine with access issues and restriction on blasts and no clear path to processing.
If they do need to raise a significant amount of money say north of 12M$ then that will dilute the shareholding of the current shareholders significantly. A very difficult situation. I find it very hard to see a positive side to this. I hope I am wrong.

If they do need to raise a significant amount of money say north of 12M$ then that will dilute the shareholding of the current shareholders significantly. A very difficult situation. I find it very hard to see a positive side to this. I hope I am wrong.

Hi Brain - reading the 30 June 2019 quarterly activities report my understanding is that the Dubbo collapse was historical not a recent event caused by NTL as you possibly imply. The report describes how the work that quarter focused on making safe this access route and excavation of loose material. As the report says and you correctly point out this resulted in significant unexpected strengthening work and costs to work around the historical collapse but credit needs to be given to mining contractor that this was being successfully achieved.

Yes the cost to get to production will be the issue. Looking back I can see that there was an honest intention to actively mine gold. This is obvious because of all the time and money spent on the mine rehabilitation and ventilation.
It all went to custard when they tried to get into the Dubbo vein and found that it was unsafe to mine that area. I believe that the high gold grades in that area were the low hanging fruit and was going to contribute substantially to progressing the mine. After the Dubbo collapse there was no good news just incomprehensible delays and bad decisions. Now we are left with a mine with access issues and restriction on blasts and no clear path to processing.
If they do need to raise a significant amount of money say north of 12M$ then that will dilute the shareholding of the current shareholders significantly. A very difficult situation. I find it very hard to see a positive side to this. I hope I am wrong.

Very succinct summation Brain.

Good point thanks for that

Will the dust ever settle on this one.
Doubtful.
Share consolidation and further capital raises, and continued diminution of shareholder value is all I can see in the future unless some definitive plan can be formalised to economically extract whatever gold is in them thar hills. As has been previously pointed out, the relatively small amount of gold recoverable will soon consume the US$800oz margin with capital expenditure on plant, or shipping elsewhere to extract the yellow stuff from the ore. While you wait for that, your 'investment' continues to head south. 12c a share SP is pie in the sky. There are simply too many issues both historical and current for any serious re-rating of the share price any time soon, if ever.
Sorry to pour cold water on the company's prospects but that is the reality we have been living with for a long time now. I wish Jonu all the very best trying to right the ship and enhance shareholder value, but with his significant stake in the company his move to be elected onto the Board was self-preservation of investment first and foremost.
Glad to be watching from the sidelines now........

Yes I should of made that clearer. The Dubbo collapse was historical and nothing to do with the mining contractor or The mining engineer. I was an enthusiastic investor prior to and during the mine rehabilitation phase because at that time NTL seemed to be making very real progress.My only criticism at the time was no effort with regard to public relations and engagement with politicians. Any reasonable person could see that this mine would have next to no effect on the environment and it was my hope that a highly profitable NTL would be able to enhance the environment and add to the prosperity of the local community and be a good corporate citizen. I was expecting to make a fair bit of dosh from it too of course.

Cheers Brain for confirming the collapse was historical. I believe we are like minded with the need for NTL to engage with and add to the prosperity of the local community with green mining practice in hand with restoring and preserving the areas mining heritage. Unlike the obviously commercial Waihi open cast mine Talisman has an immense opportunity to provide a win win. It would be great to have more local shareholders to provide their voice to how the mine is developed. There will always be the radicals but hopefully in time they will also see the community benefits NTL can deliver.

Broken Hills contract terminated
New Talisman Goldmines Limited (NZX/ASX: NTL) advises that its independent
directors have decided to terminate the agreement for the Sale and Purchase
of Broken Hills Historic Mine Limited, as the condition of obtaining consent

being satisfied.
New Talisman intends to focus its efforts on its existing Assets. In light
of this, the board of New Talisman no longer has plans to pursue a separate
listing of its subsidiary Coromandel Gold Limited.
As a consequence of termination of the Broken Hills agreement, the trust
arrangement in respect of 80 million shares in New Talisman has been

Personally I hope he does as he has likely much to offer as a civil engineer with local Coromandel knowledge. It is interesting that Jonu emphasised in his announcement that the independent directors (ie Staissny and Sharif) made the decision to exit Broken Hills but presumably Jonu supported it. Much will depend on whether Rabone is prepared to accept the majority Board decision and move forward with NTL with the necessary energy and commitment. If he only to be a part timer with his loyalties divided it is best he leaves.

Jonu just crossing the T's with his wording, something the previous board couldn't be bothered with.

Easy answer, deceive shareholders into handing over more money in the .002 CR.



Was there something regarding links for processing ore ?

Any links for processing ore would be via Victor, not the mine. If Victor stays (which I assume he agreed to prior to canceling the mine deal) those links would remain intact. If the initial deal included equipment, that could be purchased stand-alone much much cheaper.

So it was M Hill selling a week ago in the disclosure this morning. Likely other Hill interests who did not need to disclose also selling the same day at 0.2c. There are still 33 million shares at 0.2c still waiting to be sold on the ASX which are likely to be the remaining M Hill holdings. Once this is tidied up I hope NTL delists from the ASX because as we see from many NZ owned stocks (ATM, PX1, FBU etc) on the ASX imho they are constrained by OZ sentiment which is not well tuned to that actually happening in NZ. The time delay also doesn't help and NZ investors are often unwilling to invest on the ASX due to their registration and tax complications.

We have been led to believe there is a stockpile already extracted, to give a headstart.
Is there?

See what, if anything, is re usable, or scalable from pilot plant, ann 26/7/2019.

If nothing, go to the mining museum in Thames, and copy the stamper, which I have already measured as capable of fitting in the mine.
Get stamping, get some high grade ore crushed, centrifuged and despatched for final treatment elsewhere.

No water necessary, no cyanide, no grizzling and no excuses .

No noise coming out of the mine either, several strategically placed canvas sheets will suffice.

The previous Board all had an underlying duty to Shareholders and the company to not trade the company
in a reckless manner likely to cause losses, or to enter into commitments that the company could not
reasonably meet ;)

The casting off of in places "previously stated binding' projects & commitments by the new Board tends to suggest
that the processes of the earlier Board in even entering these warrant very much closer examination and
action, if current Board consider appropriate to pursue IMO

Jonu has a huge task ahead of him. I think I recall Hill saying that it will take a further $12M or so to bring the mine to production and if that is the figure now it is more than likely (based on previous experience with NTL)to be more than that with no gaurentee of success.

... Capella Vanuatu Limited was sold to a NZ registered company, Coromandel Gold Limited
on 30 June 2021


Page 47 - Operating Segments - 2020 Year Comparatives


Vanuatu:

Revenue A $849

Debt Forgiveness A 343,260

Impairment of Capitalised EXpenditure A $(403,240)

Loss before Income Tax A $(67,762)


Segment Assets A $ 30,465


Reading Canterbury's Report they state in 2021 Capella Ventures was wound up
and Capella Vanuatu Ltd sold to NTL's Coro Gold to clean out their Vanuatu Assets
presumably.

No figures for 2021 Year - perhaps Canterbury regarded it as a dead duck that
wasn't going anywhere and still didn't warrant a look in to review until
Hill appeared waving $200 K Kiwi in NTL Stock around

(whilst possibly on fully paid NTL Covid-19 Holiday lockdown leave hanging out
in Sydney / NSW .. but who knows ?) ;)

Where will the 62 M NTL shares wind up, if they haven't been moved on already ?

Why was $200 K Kiwi paid by NTL for Assets - Canterbury had Fair Valued at just $30 K Aussie
and their reports suggest were included as Tenements being relinquished?

Let's face it - the scale of undeveloped tenements basically requiring bucket loads of dosh thrown
at it alone to even start looking at what sort of resource is there, let alone mine it - is possibly
dream world stuff (not remotely likely to fly) to even an Aussie Smallcap Miner.

Parked up in an even smaller listed $6.3 Mil Cap NZ Mining Company, NTL - does it look any better ? ;)

Is there something more that hasn't come out on this curious acquisition - which Canterbury
no longer wanted a bar of and impaired /intended to relinquish - but Hill was prepared to wave wads
more value around for to acquire ? ;)

What did NTL effectively shell out for it ?

62 m NTL Shares - Total $200 K in shares - possibly a bit more in costs what have you..

(if the Sydney Cafes and fine dining outfits were open for the meetings tucker sessions etc)

Was there a deposit paid ?

If the shares haven't been sold by Canterbury since - they can call it NZ $124 K now on
Friday's closing NZX SP ;)

http://nzx-prod-s7fsd7f98s.s3-website-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/attachments/NTL/385506/362615.pdf

Capella Vanuatu after write off's, Debt forgiveness, fair value adjustments etc etc was recorded on
Canterbury's Resources books at 30 June 2020 around AU $30.5 K

(Canterbury Resources 30 June 2020 Annual Report is filed on the ASX site for those interested)

What did Hill & the other Boardroom Squatters of the time see in this Vanuatu "Asset"
that Canterbury had impaired, wrote off loans on & finally arrived at A$30.5 K Fair Value
for at 30 June 2020 ? ;)

Great post nztx. Another early morning gem :D

I believe it was a diversionary tactic by Hill to focus people's attentions elsewhere while quietly mothballing / abandoning the mine at Karangahake.

Sort of....... start all over again with this fantasy fairy tale type stuff, and suck in a new breed of gullible investor.
Maybe we'll never know, but that's my opinion and view of it anyway. ;)

Soooo NTL doesn’t have a CEO, but having an effective CEO is something it hasn’t had for a long time.
I wonder if they’re looking for one, or if they’re waiting for the outcome of Hill’s claim?
Either way it’s money not being spent at the moment so that's a positive.

I further wonder if Jonu has any such aspirations? Could be the only way he’s going to recoup his money??!!
If he’s as busy as I’m assuming he is, his directors fee isn’t going to cover the work he’s putting in.

I also haven’t seen the any of the new Directors (McKenzie – Stiassny – Rabone) backing the proverbial truck up to buy any shares in this “outstanding and underpriced” company. Sharif has an egg cup full. (3,000,000 shares worth $6,000 - possibly bought before becoming a Director)

If too early at present, they should soon know the viability and likely prospects for NTL going forward, so I’ll be keenly watching for SPH notices.

And Stiassny ain’t no slug when it comes to knowing whether a companies a dog or not:

https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/doctor-doom-portrait-of-a-corporate-undertaker/NPJ6R6ECUEFFGWIECRFYBC4PHU/


As an afternote:
NTL wouldn’t meet the NZX new market listing capitalisation requirement today which is $10 million.
NTL is $6.3 million.
(Embarrassingly enough CRP is higher at $9.8 million and that fantasy company is one of the biggest crocks of CRaP that has ever been listed!)

http://nzx-prod-s7fsd7f98s.s3-website-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/attachments/NTL/386562/363748.pdf

Roughly 40% of opening Cash gone in the quarter, courtesy of the usual culprit - "Admini$tration"

At least Admin looks slightly reduced over the earlier quarter, but now roughly only 1 & 1/2 Quarters Cash left in Kitty..

Then what ? ;)

Is there a plan in action to have previous Directors placed over a barrel to hurriedly regurgitate all the Remuneration they have taken over the last 5 years ? ;)


A break down of "Admini$tration Expenditure" would be interesting
obviously begging the question -

How the H3LL does a small listed Company not doing very much manage to burn
through $400K in a Quarter - of which $360K was Admini$tration ? ;)

IF Hill was teminated in the quarter, then he would have had to have his notice period paid out, plus any outstanding leave - that would be another interesting tidbit - given that he was pretty much a one man band, suspect no annual leave would have been booked, 20 days/yr adds up quick!

My guess is that they are still trying to unwind Mattys pile of brown. Have to get info ready to defend his claim; then find out the truth of mining opportunities.
So probably going hard, but yet to achieve anything, hence no announcements.
Given its taken this long for HGD/NTL to get to this point, suspect it will take Jonu and Co a bit longer to lock in their business plan.

POG $1938 US

[healthy days trading today - 2 trades and $4 changed hands]

I still haven't seen any of the Directors backing the truck up.
It's something Jonu used to boast and brag about when he (evidently) did it at prices up to 10 times higher than the share price today.

Exactly 6 months ago today I posted this :


....... I wish you the best with your Board aspirations Jonu. I’m not very convinced you’re going to like what you find though, but best of luck anyway!

I think we all know the reason for no further backing up of the Jonu truck at 0.002c. ;) ;)

Those "sophisticated and institutional" Australian investors who fronted up with $AU670,000 at the last aborted rights issue haven't come back either.

Director's Fees is going to be extracted in a few months time yet ? ;)

Surely must be some fairly kaput Businesses' residual abandoned assets that could be
thrown NTL's way, so it can be renamed Heritage Furniture Liquidations Ltd
and make at least one or two million a year cleaning up after Auckland's Corporate
failures ? ;)

Well, I admire Jonu - he didnt like what he saw, put his name forward, and boom, got on the Board (was the Board for a few days there). He has shares, so is invested in getting this thing going, and he will be pulling a fee for his work - so win win for him.

I suspect in his position he wouldnt be allowed to buy on the open market given the extra information he has that isnt public. Potentially that is also blockin him from selling...after all $0.002 is better than $0.001 or nothing.

Next quarterly will be interesting - or more of nothing.

As the old saying goes, "Ya have to know when to hold them, and ya have to know when to fold them".

Unfortunately none of us get it right all the time.


But all the NTL naysayers over the last couple of years who suggested that holders exit at prices substantially higher than the embarrassing current price, dissed the management, rubbished the companies strategy, warned people against participating in the capital raises, laughed at the loyalty shares idea, scoffed at the options being issued, ridiculed the pilot plant, were flabbergasted when NTL said they were considering microbes to process the gold, dumbfounded when this penny dreadful company said they were looking to the USA for opportunities etc etc etc.

Well...... all those naysayers got it 100% right.


They also had to vigorously defend themselves from the pro NTL supporters pack, admirably led by Jonu, 'bullish'' (Hill) :mellow:, 'epithermal' (Hill) :mellow:, and for a brief period 'Tappers12' who I'm guessing was posting from a cheap trailer trash park in Barstow California, until he/she/non binary gender fluid was banned :eek2:. (posts #6585 thru to #7295)


Well.........all those defenders and supporters got it 100% wrong.


There still is no mining engineer. He resigned over 18 months ago and hasn't been replaced.
There is no concrete doable scheme for processing anyway.
But then there is no need for an engineer or a processing plan because the mine has, for all intents and purposes, been abandoned (unused million dollar pilot plant entombed)


With regard to the above 'ring ring' posts, If NTL don't raise some money soonish and/or produce some income (unlikely imo) the only phone contact anyone will have with this company will be via the liquidator.

nztx
14-03-2022, 02:42 PM
And so the hairy question still lingers - is the Mine an economic do-able resource
in any term or does the Board need to now consider impairing and writing off the lot ? ;)

The listed shell may still be worth a mil or two in the right hands to back something
else into ;)


but then again as some may imagine, it probably comes down to how well the Auditors
sitting in their air conditioned offices well away from the Mine Entrance
are likely to digest BS or otherwise on some value or going concern actually still existing.. ;)


Perhaps all the dough raised along the way may have seen better value retained
invested in the THREE ASX listed Gold Miners active elsewhere in NZ ?

I don’t recall seeing any market update or shareholder notification that NZ RegCo’s were conducting any sort of investigation.
Maybe I missed it? Did anyone see it? Link please.

Surely it is/was of importance to any potential purchaser of shares over the last few months that company irregularities and possible breaches were being investigated!!

Talking of share purchasers,…it’s beyond me why would anyone want to put a single cent (you'll get 5 shares for that amount tho :scared: ) into this shambles of a company.


I guess when you were being paid $400,000+ per year as CEO, you'd do anything to keep ya snout deeply immersed in the sinecure trough.

sinecure
noun
a position requiring little or no work but giving the holder status or financial benefit.

"NZ RegCo’s investigation concluded that NTL breached several NZX Listing Rules as a result of these events. NZ RegCo determined to pursue an educative, rather than enforcement, outcome in relation to NTL’s breaches."

Off to the ERA things go ;)

A $817 K claim - for a Part Time CEO :)

could be interesting how that goes ..

Presumably if Hill's ERA claim is upheld then that must in turn render him personally
liable for a raft of possible actions going the other way ? ;)

Not forgetting possible Shareholder Class actions also being thrown at him ;)

but the Cashbox might be looking fairly skint by then without any further mining activities

Hill is an absolute slime bag. Not only has he taken shareholders for years, but now he wants to empty the bank account and attempt to finish the company. Not to mention the time that is being taken up dealing with this rubbish.

Because of this latest claim I would personally contribute to any class action against him. What a D..k

I've said before, I'll throw coin in to fight Hill. He needs to be held to account.

Hill is a tool - pity it wasnt of the pick axe variety.

Revised 31 Dec 2021 Reports to keep ASX happy, it seems:)

$623K in the tin at period end by looks of things

The position likely wont have improved unless someone has dug up a humungous treasure lode in the current quarter and hasn't let on, or the current Board have loaned a few bucket fulls to NTL so it can embark on exploring a HILL ;)

Maybe it's already time to start on some large scale reverse mining of HILL and some of the other departed sidekicks ? ;)

Is there a way for shareholders to pony up funds to help out with the Hill issue, im getting squeezed pritty hard with inflation right now but if it keeps the mine dream alive i'd consider chucking some money at it so NTL can get a decent lawyer and have a better chance, i'd imagine there are several people on here holders or not who would like to see M Hill get served for the way he has treated holders in the past.

It might be a good idea to wait for a bit until we all understand how much of a dream this mine is. With Michael Stiassny on the board , (the man with the reputation as a corporate undertaker) I am hopeful of and expect some objectivity as to the future of the mine.

You wouldn’t get any argument from any of the shareholders on your view of Hill.

That was a good find. He had that reputation 20 years ago. This will be interesting because he goes into this as a director with no shareholding and probably the directors fees are not too flash for a man of his experience so that is not his motivation.

Yes, seems he will call a spade a spade, and wont call a hole in the ground a gold mine - well, until they can get it operating!

An action plan from Jonu just announced which involved raising $3.5m additional private capital to fund the recommencement of underground works including a 2nd egress route. $1m already pledged. All subject to shareholders approval at the end of June which no doubt will cover the commercial terms of the funding eg how much share dilution may result etc. IMHO the dilution is likely to be fairly irrelevant to the big picture where the potential earnings are in cent multiples not in the current decimal points. A processor still to be found so I like the idea of doing this in house.

I expect to see more detail than that very broad action plan before making any judgement but it is a good start. Well done Jonu and the board.

That's interesting - a 12.50pm HALT after a 9.41am Announcement :)

I think the halt is only on the ASX, and possibly because the NZX announcement was not made over there.

I'm surprised there's not more positive reaction to this, I think it's great news.

Okay it looks like a move forward.. but:

there is still the HILL Employment Case Overhang

Possible further Capital Dilution possible

The existing Stakeholders in part have probably gotten Cap-Raised out
under the previous Board's watch and have had a guts full of new Capital
raised evaporating with little further tangible progress only to see more
dreams & excuses being spun for the next Cap Raises that then followed.

Not enough info released for the Market to make an informed choice.

Sure - the Easter Bunny or Lotto or one of Robbo's Slush Funds weren't going to front
with the extra millions to advance things, so it had to come from somewhere ;)

In this case outside funders (possible further shareholders from this) and probably
at a fairly sizey price too - if I'm not mistaken :)

No matter how it's cut or presented - is it likely that existing Stakeholders are going
to see to much out of this on the billions of shares already issued ?

I have difficulty seeing it - quite frankly IMO there are far cleaner, nicer, more prospective,
advanced ASX Goldies operating on NZ turf than NTL looks now or is likely to be in future :)

One of these is very significantly ahead in SP already this year, with a second ASX company following
upwards, while NTL has headed where ? ;)

but I may be wrong

Agree. The way I see it is NTL is already light years ahead from where it was a year ago in terms of credibility with a strong board and locally connected equity raising advisors.

But is it investible yet at Retail Levels in it's present structure without a
hefty consolidation at current SP levels in near / medium term ? ;)


Other ASX Goldies operating here in NZ have YTD 2022 SP's up 40% - 60% more or less
and are going places rapidly, with very significant upgrades to their deposits / strikes :)

I know where I would be flinging further Ca$h and it's nowhere near Coromandel :)

Everyone to their own but 40% to 60% is nothing to what this one could become in the next couple of years.

It might pay to keep an open mind on this one. The recent changes for NTL have been huge. Replacing a very poor performing board is a huge achievement and something that I thought was not going to happen.
The new board has no past to hide and as Paint it Black points out NTL has credibility now.
Having a second egress and funding the traffic management plan was never mentioned by the previous board. Market cap of NTL is currently about $6m which is peanuts if this can become a profitable mine.
I will wait patiently for more detail.
I am also patiently waiting for the FMA investigation of Hill

probably sufficient time to keep playing elsewhere then & come back here with some small change :)

Going to be great if this trading halt is to announce a processing agreement being signed
