West African shares breach technical support

TIP UPDATE: Shares in sell tip West African Minerals have fallen sharply after breaching a technical support
April 30, 2013

Shares in iron ore explorer West African Minerals (WAFM) crashed through a technical support level at around 50p after another round of drill results disappointed investors. This is the third batch of assays that have failed to find valuable 'direct shipping ore', or high-grade haematite iron ore mineralisation, at the company's early-stage exploration permits in Cameroon.

IC TIP: Sell at 34p

Shortly thereafter, founding director Gualtiero Giori sold his entire shareholding in the company for £10.7m in cash and non-cash considerations.
