periods; changes in financial estimates by securities analysts;
changes in market valuation of similar companies; announcements by the Group
of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic alliances, joint ventures or
capital commitments; changes to mineral resource and reserve statements;
additions or departures of key personnel; any shortfall in revenues or net
income or any increase in losses from levels expected by securities analysts;
future issues or sales of Ordinary Shares; and stock market price and volume
fluctuations. Any of these events could result in a material decline in the
price of the Ordinary Shares.
Other risk factors
The Ordinary Shares are traded on AIM, rather than the main market of the
London Stock Exchange. An investment in shares traded on AIM may carry a
higher risk than an investment in shares listed on the Official List of the UK
Listing Authority and traded on the main market of the London Stock Exchange.
Investors should be aware that the value of the Ordinary Shares may be
volatile and may go down as well as up and investors may therefore not recover
their original investment, especially as the market in the Ordinary Shares on
AIM may have limited liquidity.
The market price of the Ordinary Shares may not reflect the underlying value
of the Company’s net assets. The price at which investors may dispose of
their shares in the Company may be influenced by a number of factors, some of
which may pertain to the Company, and others of which are extraneous.
Investors may realise less than the original amount invested.
The risks above do not necessarily comprise all those faced by the Company and
are not intended to be presented in any assumed order of priority.
