I agree with you there (muskox news) without a doubt.
Here's some thing to think about. Annual share holders meeting happening in June combined with Muskox results and 2nd quarter earnings results happening approximately around the same time. Might be a good time for the RS. At that time the pps may have creeped up to $1+ WHO KNOWS?? Definitely not me but worth some consideration.

It is my *HOPE* that Tahera actually will be bought out.

BUT.

I am looking for Oppenheimer to take Tahera over, so as to gain a NASDAC listing for Debeers. I hope this occurs and see potential for it as it is comman knowledge that Oppenheimer wants to reduce his majority holding of Debeers and that Anglo american want to increase there share upward from there current 45%.

Such a take over (and we have a reasonable number of O/S shares for "Debeers") would generate great exitement on the Nasdac (IMHO) and push the price into the stratasphere. While allowing Oppenheimer to sell off some shares at a decent price and allow Anglo American to increase there percentage of holdings at the same time.

Why else would Debeers have last year paid the fine impossed by the US government (if they dont intend to list there?) After an absense from the US of A since world War 2.

So yes I am speculating .....BUT,

.....BIG TIME!!!!

And ALL this is after Tahera has brought Anuri and Muskox et el to production . Thus ...the perfect way for the current main players to profit and end there term running Tahera/Debeers.

Anyone recall the name of the Tahera executive who died in South Africa a while back? BEFORE there was any mention of Debeers involment with Tahera?

Nothing is a coincidence to this Surrey boy unless its myself, the old lady, and the alarm clock all going off at the same time.

I can see we're all getting bored waiting for the final few weeks before we get real news! For what it's worth (and purely in my opinion etc) a major candidate to buy Tahera must be BHP Billiton. Tahera, once positive results from Anuri and Muskox are available, would fit well into their portfolio of diamond production and move them away from relying on African diamonds. What price? - now that's the question... with results from Anuri & Muskox around $5 I would guess.

Maybe we should have a sweep on who buys Tahera?

BHP Billiton 5/2

De Beers 3/1

Google 1000/1

How long are you guys considering to go on Tahera.. I personally have the patience to wait.. no prob with that.. but $5 doesnt really impress me considering my avg weighted buy is 77 cents.. those that have a lot of shares and an avg buy price half that will laugh with $5 .. probably sell of half their shares and let the others sit.. or just sell off enough to cover their investment..

any chance we can see a lot higher than $5.. and how long do you guys figure.. 3 - 4 - 5 years?

$5 doesn't impress you? If you know of any other plays that can garner a return like that definitely let me know. You bought in at $0.77 and are anticipating a $5 sell point, that kind of stock doesn't come along every day. If you got in at $0.20, $0.40 or $0.77, selling at $5 is an absolute killing regardless. I'll be ecstatic with $1.50-2.00 by the fall, if it ever reaches $5.00, I can't even fathom what I'll do to celebrate! I'm hoping to recover my initial investment by the fall and then I'm going to let the rest ride...who knows for how long, that will depend on Muskox, Anuri and the rest of the pipes that they're looking at.

D, did you get in on BLE before the RRSP deadline?

Have a great day!

Maybe impress was the wrong word to use.. to sell at $5 would be about a 650% increase for me.. id personally like to see 6500% increase (haha wouldnt everyone!).. even if it takes 5, 6, 7 years to realize .. and thats what im wondering is if it will ever reach a high like that or close to that or even higher.. basically.. Aber territory

What is the matter with you people? Why do you wish to shortcut yourselves in every possible way (in reference to Tahera). First, you wish to have an unreasonable RS ratio and as if that is not bad enough for the small investors, now you are entertaining the thought to offer our little 'native' Tahera on a silver plater. Why do you wish to cave to those international incorrigible sweepers whose philosophy on the record is to create monopoly and hence price manipulation via their controlling interests which in turn creates socio - economic distortion and thus global resentment and unrest. Ya, free market? What is that? When everything is controlled by a handful of heavy squashing ugly looking footers. One must keep in mind that Canada is not a Third World Nation (I know....politically incorrect).

I beleive, at least I hope Mister Gillin and 'company' have enough wisdom, pride, and integrity where they will be prevented from 'selling' Tahera, especially considering their location. I guess for some all sums up to a speedy bottom line.

How about the possibility of Tahera expanding?? and She then in due time becoming the predominant player around and keeping such status for a very long time to come. I am looking forward to Tahera's growth. At the moment, I see Her as the 'perfect' infant who deserves a safe environment until maturity.

You may be happy to make 1, 2, 3 , 4, 5, 12, whatever buk$ per share but this is not what I have in mind with my Tahera investment. Once the company has reached production and provided everything has gone well, whenever possinle, I will be selling and re-buying 50% of my shares each time the stock price fluctuates enough.
All of this thinking of course, and only for myself, would be nothing more than a fleeting dream should Tahera be taken over as per your suggestion, in which case Advoff was just given the assignment of intention analysis. Now, I am not going to apologize for my outburst, and you feel free to throw as many stones you want at me.

Easy there big E...I'm not going to chuck any rocks but I think we're all just passing the time by discussing future possibilities. Some people (unfortunately I don't fall into this category) have substantial amounts of cash invested in this company and simply want to try and envision what could possibly happen...obviously no one knows, but I think any responsible investor should at least try and cover all the angles for the future.

Have a great day!

Ya'. Ditto.

As much as I'd like to see "her" go it alone, and become a prosperous diamond entity all on "her" own, one can't exclude that there may be other possibilities in "her" future.

As far as share valuation for the near future, it will depend on proven resourses from Musk. and Anuri. The more Bling Bling they find, the more chaching chaching in our pockets.

One thing is for sure, if there are one, or even better two, big companies trying to bag Tahera it won't be bad for the share price

The DeBeers angle is very interesting - I'd forgotten that they had taken the necessary steps to relist in the USofA. June certainly looks like it could be interesting

Well Hey! Way to go kiddo! Just remember to take what we say with a grain of salt, O.k. You probably figured out that we don't all "walk the same walk" when it comes to investment tactics.
Always practice what others here constantly promote: "do your DD".(due diligence) Do your research first. Don't go buying something just because someone may have told you that "it's a good buy". Research,research,research, then timing. That last one is a little tricky to get right. Anyway, good luck, and I hope you make lots o' money.

Someone want to take a stab at this for me.....assuming no R/S.
What 's the eps on this thing after bills are paid. I can't get my head around this tonight.

hey Eradicator,
it all sounds good, but we all know how the business works; the big fish eats the small one... sure it would be beneficial to us if we could hang onto our shares in Tahera and its tremendous reserves and potential. but how? can we all agree to veto any attempt? probably not. and even if we did, we are just a drop in a huge bucket . most investors probably won't gamble on a questionable outcome, but rather settle for a quick profit. I suppose most participants here on this board have been buying/holding Tahere for a long time and it is easy to get "attached" to it, build up expectations and stuff. but the BIG problem is that if the "dream" has real ground (i.e. the company has huge reserves or tremendous potential to expand), then it will be also just too bloody attractive to be scooped up. in essence it's almost like a "paradox" in my view. if you are a star, everybody is after you. management would almost have to be like Nemo, the little clown fish in the big sea . you have to be really smart and lucky (!) to manouver around and in between the big fish. and perhaps that's one reason why Mr. Gillin didn't give a "flashy" presentation the other day. he almost wants to "downplay" the whole thing? just a thought. of course the results will speak sooner or later, so you can't hide your real worth for ever . just my interpretation.

What a Excellent post this was Golf dude!.. Your comparison is right on the button; very elloquently put. My views are the same; but, you just communicated it much better than I could have. Well done!

Have a great one!

This is my first post but I have been watching for a while.
I hope this question isn't too naive but here goes.
I sold my house and have about 150,000 sitting around in money funds (2.75% return).
I know nothing in the markets is a sure thing however it seems that there are a lot of you here who feel that Tahera has pretty limited risk.
This is really all the money that I have but I was thinking (Worse case scenario) that even if Jerico's actual diamond production turned out to be a disappointment the stock would not fall to zero because of all the other kimberlite deposits.
Here is my stupid question....If you were me how much would you invest.
I know I am inviting all kinds of comments about everyone having different risk tolerances and such but I'm just asking ...what would you do if you had this money just sitting there.
thanks for any insight.
