Stock Manipulation by Masters

As of July 15, the open short interest for KRY on the AMEX was in excess of 7 million shares with an additional unknown number in Canada. The reported Canadian short interest can be misleading due to the way short sales are reported there, but it is likely the combined short position was in excess of 9 or 10 million shares. Crystallex had by far the highest reported short interest among metals miners on the American Stock Exchange for the month of July, which indicates it was a target of the larger short players (see table).

Itýs a Raid!

The 7-plus million shares sold short on Crystallex in July was apparently not enough for rapacious shorters. All through the day on Wednesday, July 27, a large (over 50K) short sell order was kept at or just above the offer. Reliable sources confirm that particular order came through a U.S. full service brokerage located in the U.S. heartland.[1] Then, in the morning of the 28, an enormous market sell order was dumped into the already weakened bid, shattering all support. That immediately triggered a chain-reaction waterfall of sell stops all the way from around $3 to $2 in the span of a few minutes.

By the end of the day KRY had recovered much of the price damage, but not before the volume had reached a staggering 5.4 million shares on the AMEX. (The average volume is closer to 900,000 shares daily.)

Timing is Everything

The perpetrators of the short raid chose the timing for their ýback-breakerý well.
Investors and brokers who follow Crystallex closely and keep up with the company though cyber-communities and company press releases knew that Crystallex Chairman Robert Fung and President Todd Bruce had traveled to Venezuela for meetings about the final permit. Shareholders were waiting for news of those meetings on the 28.

The raid also came one day before a much ballyhooed internet message board discussion about the first meeting of the ICSID on the Vannessa arbitration matter. Message board posters heralded that first meeting repeatedly in the days prior.

The good news for Crystallex shareholders who survived the raid is that most likely the interests who engineered this assault have more than likely now covered many of those millions of shares they borrowed and perhaps have even now reversed course and taken long positions.

They know that the ýreasonsý for the raid were mostly of their own making.

Nachbetrachung

Kann unsereins aus alledem Lehren ziehen?

Gegen derartige Machenschaften , die Eldorado (und Edel Man) in anderen Threads,
va.Thai Guru..,beklagte, ist leider kein Kraut gewachsen.
Kommt immer wieder,viel zu oft,vor.

Die einzige Lehre, die ich ziehe:
bei derartigen Panikattacken den Pulverdampf legen lassen und kaufen ,oder nachkaufen.
Wenn ich von der Aktie grundsätzlich überzeugt bin,und cash genug da ist.

Was hier erfolgte.

Grüsse

Seit Wochen läuft KRY wie auf schiefer Ebene wieder bergab.
Und steht knapp über Jahrestief.

CRYSTALLEX INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
Canada's Crystallex International has put back its forecast for the start of commercial production at the Las Cristinas gold mine in Venezuela to first quarter 2007 subject to receipt of a long-delayed permit to build the project. The revised development schedule anticipates mechanical completion of Las Cristinas by end-2006 if the permit is received by the end of third quarter 2005 BNAmericas.com reports the company as saying in its second quarter results statement.

Ein Auszug:
.....................
The revised capital cost forecast is $293 million, an increase of approximately 10%, or $27 million, from the $266 million June 2004 Control Budget estimate announced in August 2004. Included in the $293 million is an allowance of $19 million for growth and contingency. The Company has a high degree of confidence in the capital estimate, with bids received on over 90% of contracts and purchase orders. At the end of July 2005, commitments under awarded contracts and purchase orders totaled $150 million.

The $27 million increase in the capital cost forecast is primarily attributable to increases in the cost of aggregate (crushed stone) and concrete, costs associated with delays in receiving the environmental permit, and inflation. The cost of aggregate increased because of an insufficient supply of suitable material at Las Cristinas. Consequently, some of the aggregate requirement is being met by trucking waste material from the Company's operations near El Callao. The revised estimate better reflects current local market conditions for concrete in Venezuela.

Operating cost estimates have also increased, attributable, in part, to a general worldwide increase in commodity prices. The average total cash operating costs (including royalties) are now estimated at $221 per ounce over the life of the mine and $154 per ounce during the first five years as compared with $206 per ounce for the life of mine and $125 per ounce during the first five years in the June 2004 Control Budget estimate

Das ist ist mehrfach interessant:
1.DasProjekt wird realisiert werden.
2.Kostensteigerungen werden geschätzt und begründet.
3.Die "total cash operating costs" werden über die Lebenszeit angegeben.
4.Für den bekannt niedrigen Goldgehalt sind sie mäßig !MO.

Bleibt natürlch das bekannte politische Risiko.

Könnte man durchaus auch anders sehen.
Die haben den Mut , sowas zu korrigieren.
.
Wer hat zB.die Energiekosten vor 1 Jahr richtig abgeschätzt?
Und die meisten Juniors usw machen einfach zig% Private Placement.
Dann sehen wir genau so dusslig drein.

However, bis das Ding so produziert,gehört öbbies Mumm dazu,rite.

Crystallex to move forward with Venezuela gold mine despite mining review

Source: Associated Press

Crystallex International Corp. plans to move forward with a gold mine in Venezuela despite calls for a review of foreign mining contracts, a company spokesman said Thursday.

"We will start as soon as we get permits from the environment ministry," said Josue Fernandez, a spokesman for the Toronto-based company.

Mining Minister Victor Alvarez said Thursday there will be a review all mining contracts, according to the state-run Bolivarian News Agency.

Earlier this week, Alvarez said the government could cancel inactive mining concessions and put them under the control of a state mining company to help create jobs.

Fernandez said Crystallex does not fall under the concession review because it has an operating contract – not a concession – from state mining conglomerate Corporacion Venezolana de Guyana.

Crystallex plans to spend $265 million (euro216.8 million) building the Las Cristinas gold mine and a processing plant. The area was previously explored and developed by Placer Dome Inc., but the firm abandoned operations in 2001 amid slumping gold prices.

Das spricht nicht unbedingt dafür: :))

Aktuell: 3,23 C$ + 9,5 %.
So könnte es weitergehen.
