City Investors Circle – 121 Mining Coference, London

I attended the London 121 Conference today after having to miss yesterday due to illness, and was surprised how quiet it seemed.

Given the recent strong run in producing gold stocks I expected a busier event. I realise it was the second day, and they are often quieter, but it still seemed quiet to me.

Talking to some of the booth holders some complained about only having a few meetings today, but of course it’s the quality of the meeting rather than the quantity that really counts of course.

I managed to catch up with a few companies I have a sharehoding in, and a couple of others that are on the watch very closely list.

.

I met with the following companies;

 

Astral Resources (ASX: AAR)

Two projects in Western Australia. with nearly 1.5 million ounces of gold, oprn pit.

Well financed, with an experienced managaement team who have delivered before.

 

Angus Gold (TSX.V: GUS)

Has some very prospective properties sandwiched between Wedome’s Eagle River Mine and Mishi mine.  A bit ealry stage but hunting for elephants in elephant country.

This is a story I have been following for a while and the company is on our tier 3 watchlist.

 

Barton Gold (ASX: BGD)

Alex made another polished presentation, where he elucidated the plan moving forward. Essentially BArton have two distinct areas, an early stage production scenario with a permitted mill, and a longer term production and development story.

 

Lavras Gold (TSX.V: LGC)

Based in southern Brazil, Lavras made a major gold discovery at Fazenda do Posto.

The management team are experienced, and their Butia and Farenzo deposits are open to expansion. Tight share structure.

 

Thesis Gold (TSX.V: TAU)

A company I invested in after a water cooler meeting a couple of years ago. CEO Ewen Webster is Scottish, and comes across as highly credible and honest.

Thesis are quietly growing their projects, working in a methodical way, nothing flash or promotional here.

 

Strikepoint Gold (TSX.V: SKP)

A company I invested in last year after meeting them at PDAC. Nevada based exploration.  After a decent drill hit, later follow up drilling disappointed, so the stock is now trading around 40% down on my investment price. They now have a new project, Hercules, also in Nevada, which they’re looking to fund with another financing.

And that was my day. Had I not been ill yesterday I would have had more meetings, but I managed to meet all the companies I wanted to meet.

I had to cancel G Mining Ventures so I could catch an earlier train home, but I’m meeting them in Zurich next week anyway.

I was extremely disappointed with West Red Lake Gold Mines, who cancelled a meeting at the last minute. No doubt I was bumped for a “bigger player”.

I am a shareholder, and would have expected them to act in a more professional manner. I could have shared the slot, I’ve done that before and it works fine.

——

 

The venue is fine, plenty of space and food and refreshements were plentiful.

I discovered a better way to travel there, by going to Aldgate Tube Station, and it’s a four or five minute walk at the most. It’s an easier route than trying to find your way from Liverpool Street, if you’re not familiar with the city.
