Comment

This is a disappointing price, the discount to market price was around 11 c when this deal was announced.

Given the large number of deals getting away at strong prices, the large discount here was both a surprise, and a disappointment.  Sure enough, the shareprice has now retreated to the placing price.

They really do need to define an initial resource ASAP, investors appear to be losing faith.
