I have to admit I liked the story behind Edenville Energy (LON:EDL), emanating from late summer last year onwards, that the Tanzanian Government had banned coal imports. By rights this should have made the shares climb vertically, something which would have been all the more pleasing given the way that at the time they were…
One of the highlights of the past year on the stock market has been the rise and rise of mining stocks. But the problem has tended to be the embarrassment of riches in terms of the choice of companies to go for. Nevertheless, European Metals (LON:EMH) has offered a smoother ride than most. European Metals…
It has been a long journey for shareholders of Nostra Terra Oil & Gas (LON:NTOG). The big question is whether or not the enthusiasm of its CEO, Matt Lofgren, will be able to take the company to the promised land. The Nostra Terra story has been a rather challenging one for its arm of loyal…

One of the perennial issues facing small caps is to effectively garner the positive attention of private investors. As far as Kodal Minerals (LON:KOD) has been concerned, this looks like it is finally coming to pass. One of the problems that many private investors can have is seeing the wood for the trees in terms…
A previous technical call on Pantheon Resources (LON:PANR) suggesting that below 100p the stock could fall to 50p was not exactly popular. However, the late 2016 dive towards 60p meant that this view was not too wide of the mark. Pantheon Resources was one of the most outstanding small cap stocks of the first part…
I have to admit that while Innovaderma was on my radar as a potential charting play to make a call on, getting a request on Twitter and then finding out they are involved in hair loss treatment mean I am starting the year with this play. It would appear that in the skin area Innovaderma…
It should be admitted that the Rockhopper Exploration (LON:RKH) journey has not exactly been a quick or easy one for its fans. However, at least from a charting perspective it may be that going into 2017 we are looking at a recovery situation. Given that cash is supposed to be king in a number of…
