OCT

Here's what I said about Octava Minerals (ASX: OCT) at the end of April 2025...

OCT is in the doldrums, stuck there since February. Nothing to see here for a while. There are plenty more studies to come. Investing now would mean becoming a long term holder to see any sort of return. Check back in December.

At that point, OCT had plummeted from almost 15 cents to 3.8 cents. Currently at 4.7 cents it is almost back at its baseline from a year ago.

This is another company that isn't setting the world on fire. And exploring in Tasmania comes with its own set of special conditions (Tasmanians are passionate about their environment).

I checked and their drilling might produces some results that boost the share price, but...

drilling will take a few weeks; 
assays will take much longer:
it's Tassie.

Yeah, they're off my list.

BOT

 As far as quarterly announcements go, the one out today from BOT is one of the nest I have ever seen. And it only get beaten by the next quarterly. The only way this stock is going is up - with the potential of a takeover offer (nothing is certain).

It's 31 Jan

 And that means we will hear about the AAR T/O offer of MXR today or tomorrow. Considering that MXR have not been sitting idle while AAR have been going through the data, I would like to think that the offer will be increased. Already the offer is at 7 cents (AAR scrip equivalent) in a share swap - no you don't get the cash, you get the shares in AAR. As I wrwite this, MXR is still at 6.3 cents, so there could be a quick profit to be made for those who can jump fast.

A Couple of Updates

 Well, it's Monday morning and the week has started with a bang. First, PFE announced that there was an unexpected problem with their test drill and they have had to abandon that and go to a new test drill site. A delay, but no real issue apart from that. And the market hated that. Good news for those wanting to buy, not so good for existing holders. IMC released their AGM presentation which indicates that there will be some news in December and then a very busy (and hopefully productive) 2025. Sales are good and continuing to get better and better.
