There always seems to be a future event that will be the catalyst that sends this stock skyward, but when it happens, it is replaced with yet another future event. And the pps remains the same or lower. Frustrating!

So is it too early to start talking about the winter road yet??
Actually, the one concrete saving grace for Tahera just very well may the winter road. I've been watching the weather trend. I know in my kneck of the woods they called for a long and hot summer. We had anything but. I see now they're calling for a mild winter. I'm hoping they're wrong again. No one denies Tahera's actual production and potential forecast in future mines. Probably anyone with a shovel and a busted compass could trip over gold, diamonds, uranium etc, etc up there. The key to survival of this company is the logistics and manpower required to take the goods to market. Technicals on the five year historical chart indicate five main low points, five main high points and five specific times spiking between the two....which happens to be the winter months. From my point of view their fuel supplies must be extremely low as they opted out of extending the runway for larger planes as a fuel cost savings. They needed the larger runway to get more fuel in cost effectively in lieu of the short road usage. Opting out means they're really watching their pennies up there. Anyways, I'm watching with interest for a cold harsh winter up so they can get properly re-supplied and back on track. IMHO the fuel tanks are the key ingredient for sustaining stability and forging ahead. Nothing else really matters at this point since all the other wheels are in motion. We also can't forget the other mines up there didn't get their required share either. And Tahera being on the lower end of the pecking order, needs one long cold winter. For the record, my vote is 'nay' for a take over as an easy out to their woes. I've been in this to long to have the potential of my share value diluted again by a big player. The upside potential of the share value would be far greater as a stand alone company.

When the price gets low enough, someone will buy it for it's assets. I think the diamond pipes and dikes, hold way more potential than the running Jericho mine can produce. The Jericho mine is a very good start. It may not look that way, right now. But it will come around in time, or someone will buy it and turn it around. If you want something that is doing good, buy RIM. I can't trust RIM, not at this point. Right now I'm greedy, and waiting to buy a small chunk more TAH at $1.68. But every day, when the stock goes down, I lower my buy price buy a few cents. I want my orsder to be filled when the stock has a huge drop. I guess you can say I'm chasing the stock on the way down. I want to buy on someones stop loss order. On a day when it does a free fall. If it never hits cause I was too greedy then I'll use the money for a different purchase. I'm tired of buying and then the price goes down again.

That Golden River Deal. I think they should have had an escalator clause. So much now, so much later, even more when you are up and running. If you become by far the largest mine of any kind in the world, 25% sounds good.
Maybe another company would like to bid for the rights to mine a certain area of Tahera's. Back in 2002 when the deal went down, Tahera really could of used some money instead of making more shares.

I think Pete is good buddies with that guy.

Have you looked at Golden River's share price lately? They haven't traded since Sept 27th. I just looked up their track record, not very good. 1:20 reverse split. It's in their US ANNUAL REPORT.
I don't trust them, GORV.OB
If its got a ".OB" behind its symbol, shouldn't that be a clue to riskiness? Mind you, better than a ".PK".

a diamond 30% bigger than a golf ball? (only if Tahera...)

(don't get excited boys and gals [just yet], it wasn't found by Tahera)

JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - A 603-carat diamond, the biggest found in 13 years and the 15th largest in the world, went on sale in Antwerp on Wednesday after being uncovered in Lesotho in southern Africa, the owners said.

"It's about a third bigger than a golf ball," a spokeswoman for the owners said.

It was hard to peg a valuation on the find since that depended on how many cut diamonds could be fashioned from it.

A handful of the world's top diamond cutters would be allowed several hours to examine the stone before they submitted bids.

The diamond, named the "Lesotho Promise", was found at the Letseng Diamond Mine high in the mountains of Lesotho, a kingdom surrounded by South Africa.

The gem is the biggest uncut diamond found since the Millennium Star -- 777 carats large -- was discovered in the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1993.

The biggest rough diamond ever found was the Cullinan at 3,106 carats, while the second largest, the Excelsior, was 995 carats. Both were found in South Africa.

The biggest cut diamond that resulted from the Millennium Star was a pear-shaped gem of 203 carats.

The winning bid for the Lesotho diamond, which was found on August 22, is expected to be announced by the Antwerp Diamond Centre on Monday, the spokeswoman added.

The Letseng mine is 70 percent owned by Gem Diamond Mining Company of Africa Ltd and 30 percent by the Lesotho government.

Gem Diamond Mining is headed by Clifford Elphick, a former adviser to the Oppenheimer family, which has a 40 percent stake in diamond giant De Beers.

The Letseng mine was previously operated by De Beers, which closed it in 1982, but the operation was restarted in 2004.

I agree, I meant to say that after I sent the message off. And then I went to bed cause it was late. That company has been around for a long time, and that’s all it has to show for it's self. IMO It’s a perfect environment to manipulate the stock, and soak innocent people out of their hard earned money. White Collar Crime.

For the record, my vote will be no as well. I've been down the other road, and I don't think there is as much money in it for me.

Where are you getting all this talk about a takeover? I have seen nothing to indicate that this might happen. I think you guys are speculating too much.

Your right, it is speculation. I'm hoping Tahera does some amazing things on its own. I think Tahera has great potential. A friend told me this today. Wayne Gretzky's Dad could only take Wayne so far. He had to let someone else take over to let Wayne move to another level and become great. A place where others could realize how great he was.
If it does get taken over, we might not have much control of what takes place or the money we get.
Just keeping an open mind thats all.

My Faith in Tahera is dropping fast!

http://www.tahera.com/News/PressRele...e/default.aspx

Almost as fast as the pps has dropped.
We have been begging for news and they have given it... unfortunately it's not very good news At least we now know why the pps has been dropping, insiders selling and waiting for a turn-around. I am suspecting this stock will finally hit a $1 but unfortunately it happens after a 5:1 consolidation.
It's not all bad, after all 85% of something is better than %100 on nothing!

that is just peachy

that is just peachy! not one positive word in that news release. way to go Tahera! not one word about Muskox. and do you have to be a rocket scientist to process good grade kimberlite when you know that you have only 85% (or less) processing capacity and less than enough fuel? you have to waste it on low grade dirt? now, when the stock is under extreme pressure already due to other factors? my God! makes me mad.

And so the price drops even more! People will be getting out and show a loss for the year. It's too low for me to get out. I pulled my buy order at $1.68. I might buy after it goes down more.

Does it sound like they are setting us up? We didn't do as many tons!, we are working on the low quality material. Does it seem like they are forcing the price down with these decisions? People are going to ask, what are you in business for? It will be hard to get new money if all you do is loose money every day. Not a good start!

It will take more than this to scare me out.
I know they have something there.
White Colar Crime.

Not sure what to think

The news wasn't good, but it wasn't that bad, it is the same story as before. This is why it isn't a good idea to buy lots of shares when someone says they heard a guy say something..blah blah blah. As I have been learning this year, never forget to diversify! If you want to gamble like this, go to the casino, at least you'll know what the outcome is quickly. I am so annoyed because tomorrow this stock is gonna dive bomb, and I'm in at around $2.90 a share. Maybe the financials will be good in November and turn it around. So far, every Quarter has passed and all we have said is "it'll be better next quarter". If someone is messing around with this stock, tomorrow would present the ultimate buying opportunity, but you won't catch me putting another dime into Tahera until the grass is greener. Like I said, the news really isn't that bad, but it will scare everyone away. What I don't understand is the crusher status. They said they are having problems reaching production capacity but said they had a replacement in Sept., so is the replacement broken? This is a very vague press release, it really answers nothing.

there's my rant.

cheers,

adam

Can you tell I'm pissed?

So now does this mean they now have 2 crushers working?
If this were an Oreal Cookie, would they be soon running out of the chocolate outside, and be forced to eat the center soon?
