I agree with Kennas; especially about hoping the 20c gap isn't waiting to be filled.
Today's Australian article on the "Phosphate bubble" may have spooked some to take some money off the table.

Anyone want to hazard a TA opinion on a likely support level? Do I hear $2.02?
Cheers,
Kenny
LoL Champ - You are as bad as I am when it comes to forum copy/paste...
I agree with you... MAK is something special.
I did a DCF on the Fluorspar project and pasted on T$... Here it is again.
This project is almost as big as the Phosphate one.

-----------------------------------
**Theoretical DCF**
8yr time frame
Ship 2mt/pa Fluorspar, ramp to 3mt/pa by yr 5
Fluorspar $200p/ton taper off to 130p/ton
Open cut Opex Avg $110p/ton (Maybe too high, I'm being safe)
CAPEX 200mil (Debt 60%, Eq. 40%) Paid off over 7yrs.
Gives me a Fair Value of 339,000,000 MCap.
Avg 90mil EBT per year.
Avg 60mil Free Cash Flow.

Pg 9 - MARCH 2008 QUARTERLY REPORT
http://www.minemakers.com.au/documents/qr0803.pdf
"During the Quarter, Minemakers announced that the price of benchmark fluorspar delivered to Europe had risen to from the US$130/t price of a year earlier to US$315/t.
Moina is one of Australia’s largest fluorspar deposits and, based on historic drilling, mineralisation potential for an open cut operation of the 50-60Mt range is considered possible by Minemakers. At a 3Mtpa processing rate, Moina could be a significant long term fluorspar and tungsten producer.
Shareholders are reminded that fluorspar is the principal mineral containing fluorine and is the ultimate main source for all fluorine-based chemicals. Accordingly, it is a critical raw material for the production of aluminium metal, as well as refrigeration and air-conditioning. The growth outlook for aluminium, in particular, seems very strong."
By the way how did you come to this market cap? (Gives me a Fair Value of 339,000,000 MCap.)
Is this the market cap that you feel that MAK should currently have on top of the current market cap?
Its a MCap Value based purely on Fluorspar project - So theoreticallly you plus it on top of the Phosphate project.
My MAK Phosphate DCF is based on low end Ph price - Say 200p/ton... Comes our around the same as the Fluorspar...$380m MCap
So a MCap of $700-800m is realistic if these projects come online close to my forecast.
In theory... Its all theoretical.
I actually apply a Risk Ratio of 65% to non-producers with JORC resource... So a speculative fair value, both projects, with risk weighted into it would place MAK at $300-$400m MCap.
So based on my analysis I am happy to accumulate on corrections up to that price, or higher prices as the risk adjusts as we get closer to production...
Sorry for the long response

WONARAH UPDATE
The opportunity is taken for a brief update on activities at Wonarah as follows:
1. Diamond drilling: this drilling for geotechnical and metallurgical investigations is proceeding.
2. RC drilling: the drilling resumes this week for resources and for pre-collars to allow acceleration of the diamond drilling programme.
3. Environmental Studies: field investigations begin this week.
4. Project Manager: advertising for this position has been successful and interviewing of candidates has been initiated.
5. Infrastructure and transport: introductory meetings have been held concerning road freight contracts. Meetings are scheduled in Darwin at month’s end concerning rail freight and ship loading.
6. Development and permitting expediting: meetings are scheduled in the last week of May with the responsible NT Government Ministers, officers of the Department of Business, Industry and Resource Development, and officers of the Northern and Central Lands Councils.
Just hope RP prices consolidate nicely and there ´s no dramatic price declines which will spook punters.
For example, there are reports this week that Q3 phosphate rock is on offer from North African
suppliers and Jordan at over $400/tonne FOB.
Latest market update from Fertilizerworks has prices RISING to $400+ this week
:jump:
Also the Chinese earthquake has hit right in the middle of phosphate country! A number of mines and at least 2 DAP plants rumoured to be wiped out. Prices aren't going down anytime soon. Should be an interesting day on Monday.
When the stock bounced off the $2 mark so positively a few days ago I was very happy. Not too happy with the downtrend continuing and it`s knocking on the door again. Bounce off $2.00 MAK. Please.This is just natural consolidation IMO, in between the drilling. Money has probably switched into the very juniors as well, and others have just taken profits. Probably a bunch of new holders now who need to be patient. All the fundamental discussion hasn`t changed, unless I`ve missed something. With the potential of $1b cashflow in 2 years, it has some room to move.
Chart wise disappointed it broke 2.50, but as discussed the gap should provide some support, then $2.00. Just a word on gaps, they don`t have to be filled. There is such thing as a ´breakaway gap`that is as the name suggests. I think there was a gap up around 20 cents actually. Let`s hope that was a breakaway!
So, maybe some lessons in there IWBR?I just lost what i made in the past 6 months with MAK.... i brought around $2.54,
because i put alot more % of capital in MAK.
I'm planning to sell and buy again just for the "capital loss offset", but am planning to hold.
Will this share go as high as $3.00 as some predicted? is there is potential (i would imagine yes)
Good point Kimosabi. I think MAK (and RWD - and IPL of course) were lucky to be the first off the rank with relatively advanced projects at the time poo exploaded. Since all the others have been jumping on the bandwagon the money has shifted around the sector, stalling MAK and RWD as the massive gains had been made. I think the cream will rise to the top for a long term 'value' stock, just need to pick which one. I've put my eggs into MAK but not just because of Wonarah, but for their other couple of company making projects which should be in the news in the coming weeks.As with the Uranium Mania, every dog and his bone has been jumping onto the Poo Wagon which is starting to Dilute the Poo Sector....
