PLA - Platinum Australia

Jump to new


PLA are not only mining they are a producer and have just been entered into the All Ords, therfore the fund managers should start paying some attention to this one. Don't know what to say about the today's drop of 3 cents, however most stock fell today.

Hi Ang, dont know where you get your info from, wish it was true, but PLA are not producing.. They are waiting for mining licences for Smokey Hills, Drill results from Kalahari, feed results from Panton...A lot of things out of there control at the moment, but, you get the feeling, if one announcement comes, the SP will be on the move and more announcements will be soon to follow. Still confident of $3 in 12 - 18 months.
 

Thanks for the clarification Bushrat, it threw me, I couldn't find anything but would be silly to argue. sp should rise a lot when they do start mining, agreed.
 
Hi Bushrat
I have attached the relase relating them being listed on the all ordinaries as attached. Why else would they be listed under that category rather than Mining if they weren't producing?
How do you get your valuation of $3
kind regards
Angelo

Yes if you want a solid platinum stock this is the one. Like I said earlier in the month they are now listed under the all ordinaries, so the big boys have started to play with this one. Info I have seen is they will be producing before September.
kind regards
Ang

I can't believe there aren't any more traders on this forum on this one got to $2.04 today, my $2.30 target looks good and your $3 target in 12 to 18 months lets say that is going to be tested soon. The price has also following the Platinum price, however this is over 40% up since I first warned all you nice folk on the forum and still no announcement. They may be producing before you all think. Any way I am still in there and I hope members got on board when I first flagged it

I'm here Ang.....not a trader though. Long term one in the super fund.

Wait till Smokey comes on later in the year. Not to mention Kalplats,etc....

Got onto this on at 1.63... 2.04 high was great. Should test and pass that quite easily as we see platinum prices continue to post new high on an almost daily basis. Luv the Plat ETFs & ETCs .....
 
Please refer to below Platinum going "bananas" in London. With all the talk on reducing emissions in Vehicles and the use of this precious metal in electronic equioment like Ipods, no wonder the stock is going up. Still plenty upside tomorow and in future with this sort of news coming out of london.

April 26 (Bloomberg) -- Platinum rose in London, snapping its worst losing streak in more than seven weeks on speculation that a new platinum-based investment product will buoy demand for the metal used in jewelry and cars. Palladium declined.

Platinum fell for three consecutive trading sessions after closing at a record April 20. Carmakers are using more platinum to reduce emissions from vehicles as governments tighten environmental controls. Demand may be further bolstered by investors buying a new exchange-traded fund backed by platinum, London-based researcher GFMS Ltd. said yesterday.

``The longer-term outlook remains very strong for platinum, with inelastic demand from industrial sources potentially being joined by strong investor interest as demand for ETF products swells,'' James Moore, an analyst at London-based TheBullionDesk.com, said in a report today.

Platinum for immediate delivery rose $6, or 0.5 percent, to $1,306.50 an ounce as of 9:50 a.m. in London. Prices last retreated for three consecutive days at the beginning of March.

Palladium, platinum's sister metal, dropped $3.50, or 0.9 percent, to $376.50 an ounce. The price reached a four-year high of $406.50 in May last year, and the metal ``remains on course to challenge'' that, Moore said.

Shares of ETFS Physical Platinum, the first securities backed by platinum and introduced in London this week, gained $1.31, or 1 percent, to $132. Jersey, Channel Islands-based ETF Securities Ltd., developer of the securities, also introduced units backed by palladium, silver and gold.

``Pricing is extremely efficient and will always be close to the metal it's tracking,'' Hector McNeil, head of sales and marketing at ETF Securities, said on a conference call today. ``If there is rising demand, the ability of producers to increase supply is constrained.''

It's all good Ang.

Analysts expected $1450/ounce to be passed this year even before the ETFs had been anounced....

This one will perform better than most u stocks for the next 6 months. Big call I know as I hold quite a few. That's how confident I am on PLA.

Some good analyst reports coming out on PLA at present noting their tonnage in the coming years, coupled together with an ever increasing platinum price.

Reached a high of $2.22 today thus far. 10% GAIN

$1438/oz reached in overnight trade, so the analysts have been proven correct thus far.

PLA has not done as well as I thought; but hopefully smokey hills mining approval will change this.

First year production target of 100,000 oz. That's next year.

Wait until they get Kalplats going in another five years. Buy in now, stick under the pillow and you will be rewarded may fold in years to come.
 
This one has been a sleeping giant for quite a while now and i believe this will be headed toward $3. Recent announcements have given the kick along and proof is in the pudding! Still excellent value with solid fundamentals and very exciting times ahead. One of the better long term holds and a smart management behind them.

New high of 2.45 intraday - $2.41 new highest close also.

The sleeping giant perhaps awakening with platinum prices projected to strengthen with forecast deficit for next six months.

Any one else follow or hold this stock. Seems a shame not many follow it.
 
Yep, i follow it, as I bought in years ago at 24c, watched it dropped to 10c, then held on selling half at about $1.40 and the rest at $1.90.. I cant believe the price of this stock. It is all really dependant on producing next year..something they said they would be doing this time last year. They are waiting on some permits and this has taken almost 12 months now, as from what i can tell, they stuffed up the application somewhere in the environmental paperwork. Yesterday it spiked to $2.73 then dropped back to $2.51. I guess this was on the back of the Xstrata bid for Jubilee..
Can see it going to $4 next year, especially as volumes are building, but Anglo Pacific has recently dumped about 2mill...Cant blame them really, I think they only paid 15c for them..
good luck to holders, it should keep running.
 
PLA just downgraded their share of the Smokey Hills project to 59% according to the latest announcement to "introduce a BEE component".

They had 80% of the project before. For the size of the project should I be worried about this announcement? What does this announcement mean?

I am long on this stock but have no clue as to the nature of the BEE component and can't access whether this is a bad or good move in the long term.
 

Hi shivers not bad, does anyoen know the mine life?

Earnings and Dividends Forecast (cents per share)
2007 2008 2009 2010
EPS -4.7 9.5 11.5 36.1
DPS 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0

 

Congrats!! I think PPD and PGM are two more PGM co's which will see similar gains, both trading at discounts to recent prices, very small market caps, with great resources. PGM is probably the real moonshot.
 
Anyone got any thoughts on Platinum Australia?

It has been trending upwards for 2.5 years and is hovering around all time highs.

Fat Prophets have a BUY on it.
 
yeah they are going very well, upgraded their resource and will be mining soon, I got in at $1.85 and with the bear market starting in August they are one of the few that never fell heavely like most of the other stocks, I wish I had bought more of them now with PT over $2000 plus PD and AU and such a huge resource, It may go to $10 in a couple of years who knows
