Sula Iron & Gold (SULA) had an active last week. Cracking news on the ground (the pump) followed by...you guessed it: the dump. A placing. But. hang on...
Sula Iron & Gold (SULA), has announced the renewal of the mineral Exploration Licence held by Sula's 100% owned Sierra Leone subsidiary, Blue Horizon Limited, covering all of the Company's historic, existing and planned exploration activities and sites, which are all in Sierra Leone.
The note below from broker VSA was published a few weeks ago with the shares then at 0.15p. Today they are trading at 0.24p in the middle so the speculative buy stance can already be said to be somewhat vindicated. But the target price is 3.1p. No typo that really is 3.1p. The reasonably detailed note explains why.
I am sure that Gavin Burnell of Globo infamy has done okay from bringing this piece of shit to AIM but one suspects that other shareholders in the crappy mining no-hoper that is Sula Iron & Gold (SULA) have fared rather less well. And so today we see that via the kind offices of JubCap (broker to Chris Oil and other members of the elite) we have another keep the lights on placing.
This morning, Sula Iron & Gold (SULA) delivered one of the limpest imaginable excuses for a deeply discounted placement. Apparently the company has signed an NDA with a Tier 1 international gold producer, which is going to send one of its staff monkeys to observe drilling at Sula’s Ferensola gold project in November. This is why Sula has slaughtered its shareholders this morning, to raise £500,000 before expenses at 0.3p (an all time low for the share price, 40% below yesterday’s close). It is most definitely not to keep the PLC lights on and cover its c.£1.65million in annual admin costs.

Nick Warrell, chief executive officer of West Africa-focused Sula Iron & Gold (SULA), declares the company ‘looks forward to the remainder of 2015 with optimism’, after losses up 30% to £890,000 in the six months to March, amid encouraging exploration indications for coltan (tantalite), as it awaits gold trenching results from its Ferensola project in Sierra Leone. Sula, which floated on AIM three years ago at 6p and lost a reduced £1.4 million in the year to last September, has seen its shares wither to 1.5p, between a 12-month high of 2.9p and a 0.8p low, amid gloomy iron ore and gold markets, but Warrell, a former Welsh gold mine owner and an honorary Paramount Chief of the local Dinga tribe, insists ‘the company remains on track.’
