Gemsearcher, have you seen the latest rumor posted on SH? This gent "Plat Bull" on SH has some interesting things to say, like today he said:
strong rumour here in joburg that implats are preparing to take a run at suf -must be keeping the lid on the stock in preparation ...

In a discussion on what Minesite charges on 11/28/02 Platbull had this to say:
boy, evans must have really p1ssed minesite off! i know both evans and jennings and see them frequently when they're in south africa. clearly, minesite knows neither man. evans is tough and runs a discipled company, but he's certainly not arogant or autoctratic. in fact he can't abide arrogance and when i asked him about minesite his blood boiled at the arrogance displaid by their jounralist who refused to speak to dr. eyre, belittling her position as vp pr and insisting that he only speaks to ceo's and chairmen and would not deal with dr. eyre.
i've seen evans share the platform with jennings at a mine conference in london last year, and jennings and eyre were the key speakers at the vancouver diamond conference this year - not evans. i was also at the messina mine opening last week, where evans made jennings the centre of attention. minesite must be living on a different planet ...
blackmail? no greenmail! evans won't pay to speak at their second rate conferences, so they've got it in for him. evans has raised suf from the ashes to a tse index co. he's done well to stay clear of minesites conferences.
what does minesite know of corporate governance? nothing, by all accounts. evans runs the company, jennings runs the board. the roles are clear and the men work well together, thank goodness. it's when those lines become blurred when companies get into trouble. let's not go there ....
Are things going to get interesting? We will see. Platbull seems to have connections. I wonder if he is a senior at SUF - any thoughts? |
