Silber Companies - Liste und Neues

Hallo Edel,
wat bist du doch fürn fixer Jung´

Glaub es lohnt sich, da einige mal genauer anzuschauen.

Bei Normabec (NMB.V)hab ich es schon gemacht:
Also die wär genau meine Kragenweite vom profil.
Hist. silbermine in Mexico, die schon produziert hat mit reichlich tailings.
Und einige Gebiete in kanada. Schöner geht´s nicht.

Aber: Gewaltiger Anstieg seit Dez.06.
Sie wollen nur die tailings zaghaft nutzen und wenn überhaupt erst in 2 Jahren produzieren.

Gute grades:

Hallo heron,
das ist ein sehr interessanter Wert, auch schon gut gelaufen.

PDO.V ist auch ein Argentinienwert, den hab ich jetzt voriges Jahr und heuer kurz getradet im frühjahr.

Bei MFM.V geht´s auch um Indium, ebenso bei Argentex AGXM.OB.

PS: DNI.V setzt Anstieg fort. Da CFTN.PK nicht steigt, wird es um die Diamantenproperties gehen und nicht um Silber/Nickel.

Manchmal passt etwas wirklich gut zusammen.

Heron erwähnt Marifil und ich bekam gestern sofort Antwort von Greg Taylor, den ich Mitte März angemailt hatte, er war aber auf Reisen.
Gestern erinnerte ich ihn an das Mail und bekam eine ausführliche Antwort auf meine Fragen.
gtaylor@g-tinvestorrelations.com

Es geht da um den Merger von Aurogin (AUQ.V) und Morgain (MGM.V

Jedenfalls ist Greg Taylor auch für Marimil tätig!

Die Zusammenfassung des Inhalts verschiebe ich mal, aber er wies wieder auf die Person von Chester Millar hin, die ich hiermit nun nochmals genauer vorstellen möchte.

Hat schon was für sich, sich solche Co. zu wählen, die sehr gute Leute beschäftigen.
Wer hat die besten Geologen in Nevada?
Wer hat die besten Kenner in Mexico?
Oder in Mexico die besten Arbeitsteams?

Ein Porträt von Chester Millar, Chairman: siehe link.
Ein Stück MINENGESCHICHTE!

Mr. Millar served previously in the positions of Chairman, President and Director of Alamos Gold Inc. He is a pioneer of heap leaching gold production and of the large-scale bulk mining methods used for mining low-grade gold deposits in the Western United States. Under his guidance, Afton Mines (1968-1973), Glamis Gold Limited and Eldorado Gold Corporation grew from small exploration and early production concerns into substantial mining companies. Mr. Millar served as Chairman of Glamis Limited from 1985 to 1998 and as Chairman of Eldorado Gold Corporation from 1992 to 1994.

Hab den formatiert, Fotos über link.

Born in 1927 in Powell River, British Columbia, Chester Millar
is still going strong after an illustrious career in the mining
industry. A graduate of the University of British Columbia,
he holds a degree in Geological Engineering. While he could have
retired many years ago, his love of mining keeps him active, although
he spends what time he can at his retreat on Maui.

Resource World: How did you start your career?

Chester Millar: After graduating from UBC, I worked for both a coal
and iron mining company. I then went into the drilling and blasting
business with a construction manager. We participated in building
the Trans Canada Highway, the PGE Railway and projects of
that nature. What attracted you to the mineral exploration business?
Since I was drilling for exploration companies, I became familiar
with that business and recognized an opportunity when I saw one.
I wanted to use the percussion drilling techniques that I had been
using for highway construction for mineral exploration.
What brought you to the Kamloops, BC region and the Afton
Mine property?
While on a drilling job near Kamloops, I became aware of the
copper and gold mineral possibilities in the region. I optioned the
Afton property from a prospector and put my drill to work there.
That resulted in the discovery of the Afton orebody. I didn’t have a
geological theory or even any sample assays because there were no
outcrops. I just knew the area was prospective and began drilling
— wildcatting, you might say. You could say I was just lucky.

What do you make of New Gold Inc.’s recent copper-gold-platinum
discovery below and beyond the old Afton open pit?

It wasn’t a surprise to me. I knew there was a deep root to the Afton orebody. Dr. Norm Keevil at Teck Corp., the former operator,
told me that a deep hole had intersected copper, but it wouldn’t be possible to extend the existing pit to make that zone mineable,
so it remained a curiosity at the time. I am gratifi ed to see the success that New Gold is now experiencing. (Teck Corp. since merged
with Cominco Ltd. to form Teck Cominco Ltd. [TEK.SV.B-TSX])
After the success of Afton, what prompted you to explore Southern California?
This was 1972 when Dave Barrett’s NDP government was swept into power in British Columbia. They absolutely destroyed the
mining industry in BC. I liked Arizona and California, so I found a drill rig, hired some local people, and began drilling exploration
properties in that region — again what you could call wildcatting. However, I wasn’t drilling blind — I spent a great deal of time in libraries researching various mineral properties.

I also got involved with the owners of the Voit Rubber Company in the U.S. They had a gold property in California with a mill that didn’t work properly. I suggested the heap leach mining method. The owners
said OK and I became a part owner of the America Mine.
I continued to option properties and, after fi ve years, I came upon the gold property that became the successful Picacho Mine in
southeast California, about 20 miles from Yuma, southwest Arizona.
It just so happened that at that time I was working on what became the [now shut down] Mesquite Mine, one of the largest gold mines in California. I had optioned the property. I had read a brochure published by
the US Geological Survey that outlined its invention of the heap leach process. It then occurred to me that it might also apply to the Mesquite property. I followed the “directions” in the brochure and built the fi rst open pit, heap leach gold mine in California. I just happened to be the right guy at the right time with the right technology and the right property.

So you next applied heap leach technology to the Picacho Mine?

I had to give up the Mesquite Mine. Between a stock market crash and low prevailing gold prices, I had to let it go. So I moved my operations over to the nearby Picacho Mine which became the foundation for
Glamis Gold Ltd. [GLG-TSX, NY]. (The accompanying photograph shows an 8,000- ton heap leach experiment designed to perfect the
technique at Picacho)

When I visited the Picacho Mine a few years ago, I noticed you had transplanted cactus and other desert plants to other locations rather than just bulldozing them out of the way. Did you have a good earth stewardship program from the start?

I was always careful to treat the earth as best I could. To some people, mining has a bad name, and I wanted to be a responsible miner. With
this attitude and the more rigid environmental regulations in California, it made sense to do the best we could. I like to think we had a very clean and neat operation at the [now mined out] Picacho Mine. Maybe it was 75% following the stricter regulations, but the other 25% was the Glamis
employees trying to be environmentally responsible by taking things even further than required.

What about your involvement with Alamos Minerals?

Alamos has an interesting history. Alamos started out as a quite different company. I was approached by Jim Mancuso, the ex-president of Chevron Metals, an off-shoot of Chevron Oil. Jim told me that Chevron had developed a new workable exploration technology. He said he wanted to raise some money and use the Chevron technology in South America. I raised US $2.5 million privately and spent much of it using
the Chevron device, which was essentially taking photographs
of the earth from outer space – space imaging from satellites.
It was a futile effort and I told Jim to forget South America
— I wanted to explore Mexico.
With the money I had left, I optioned a copper property near the town of Alamos. We drilled it and got some encouraging results, so we formed a publicly-trading company and called it Alamos Minerals. We sold the property for US $1 million cash to Phelps Dodge which provided the initial
funding for Alamos Minerals. We spent a few years making mistakes — we tried to start a mine in Peru and that didn’t work out. Same thing in Sonora, Mexico. Eventually, a friend brought National Gold’s Mulatos property in Mexico to my attention. We took over National Gold and merged it with Alamos Gold. The mine is now going into production and my work with Alamos is pretty well fi nished.

What was your next project?

I felt welcome in Mexico and got involved with Morgain Minerals Inc. [MGM-TSXV], which is endeavouring to start a new gold mine — the Castillo — in Durango. Right now we are conducting our second bulk sample program. The first test was done on low-grade material and the present one is for high-grade material. The results will help indicate the
best mining methods for the project. This will also be a heap leach operation. Since the high-grade rocks are harder than the low-grade
ones, we have to see which is best — mechanically crushing
the high-grade or just leaching the bigger pieces of the
gold-bearing rock. We have about three more months
of this feasibility work and then we must complete some
fi nancing to place the mine into production next year.
According to a pre-feasibility report by independent consultants
ACA Howe, the Castillo Project hosts a resource of 9.3 million tons averaging 1.1 grams gold/tonne, representing 275,000 recoverable ounces of gold. The mine life is estimated to be at least 10 years.

How has the increase in the price of gold affected the
Castillo Project?

The rise in the price of gold will enable us to mine the lower
grade portions of the deposit which, of course, results in more
gold being recovered. This won’t generate a fortune; however,
it makes the mine bigger and longer lasting.
I’m always looking for other mineral acquisitions in
Mexico and Morgain just acquired the La Fortuna property
from Alamos. I think Mexico is a great place to build mines
— I feel like a kid in the candy store. Many of the cast-offs
from big companies are perfect for smaller operations.

Have you explored in other locales besides Mexico
and California?

A few years ago, I started La Teko Resources, which we
subsequently sold to a Mormon church group from Salt
Lake City. La Teko had a heap leach mine in Alaska – the
most northerly heap leach gold mine in the world. I was also
involved in building the fi rst heap leach mine in Honduras.
I have tried heap leaching in North and South America and
New Zealand and it didn’t always work out. As an interesting
side project, when I was working in Mexico, I wrote a book
on heap leaching in Spanish for Mexican engineers and other
interested parties – it was well received.

Hallo gutso,
bei SRLM ist der Preis des nächsten PP entscheidend.
Jetzt kauf ich sie nimmer. Womit auch?

Für mich bleibt der Ton bei Szabo seit Monaten gleich.
Beim SNS Hype von Moriarty hat er geschrieben, wenn schon unbedingt SNS dann 4 Sterling für eine SNS.
Du solltest lieber nachdenken, was er immer mit "trials" meint...

Hast den Artikel über Indium gelesen?
Das ist doch das schwere ding....! (vorige Seite)

EXM u.EXN: war als Alternative zu ECU gedacht.

Hallo Edel,
sonderbar heute vormittag war er noch da.
Hab den link benützt in diesem Thread, als ich das erste mal über den merger schrieb. Hab ihn ja mühsam formatiert.

Auf der Homepage ist er unter Investors Corner: Media coverage:
http://www.morgainminerals.com/s/MediaCoverage.asp

Gell, die Nevada Geologieg´schicht ist spannend!
Ich weiß es schlicht und einfach nicht bei VIT.
Es wird noch viele Meldungen geben heuer.

Wen der Merger AUQ und MGM interessiert und da ensteht wirklich ein feiner kleiner producer mit mehr als einer Mille oz AU Reserves.

Hallo Edel,
die Rubicon läuft schon länger, Mc Ewen Bonus.

Die XCAL Ergebnisse sind für mich besser als die UXG, die sind etwas enttäuschend. Aber UXG steigt, weil sie froh sind, dass überhaupt was da ist.
Na gut, war ein Scherzerl.
Aber gleich 30%??
Vom Timing her wie angekündigt.
Zuerst Einverleibung dann Meldung tonkin springs.

Ich glaub, bei VIT ist 0,84 ok. Ich hab 1,21!
Wenn es was wird, ist das auch ok.

Oremex: das ist bereinigt, glaub ich.
Bei GG gab es ja Ähnliches vor ca 6 Wochen , stand in Mexico groß in den zeitungen tagelang. War Los Minos??
Nur bei uns war nichts davon zu hören.
Das ist aber auch bereinigt inzwischen, glaube ich.

Noch was für den Minera Andes thread: Sehr erfreulich

Hallo value,
schöne reise wünsch ich.
Es kann folglich nur aufwärts gehen.

Excellon, mit Mantoverbindung: Hilfreich beim Produzieren.
Da war schon wieder was durchgesickert, weil sonst wär sie nach der letzten meldung mal abgetaucht.
Hier noch mal zur Erinnerung:

Excellon Discovers Potential Link Between Guadalupe Mantos
Wednesday April 11, 1:04 am ET

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(CCNMatthews - April 11, 2007) - Excellon Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EXN - News) is pleased to announce that the apparent 60 metre wide "gap" between the Guadalupe and Guadalupe South Mantos appears to be bridged approximately 25 metres above the elevation of these mantos. As part of the ongoing test-mining at Platosa, brecciated sulphide mineralization was traced upwards from the southeast end of the Guadalupe Manto to flat-lying massive silver-galena-sphalerite rich mineralization that is now being mined southeast towards the Guadalupe South Manto. Eighty-six metres farther southeast along this trend, Hole LP07-347 has intersected 5 metres of similar looking massive and brecciated sulphide mineralization at the same elevation 15 metres to the northwest of the limit of the Guadalupe South Manto (see attached map). An earlier hole, LP06-150, drilled 26 metres to the northeast of the Guadalupe Manto, cut 2.75 metres of brecciated sulphide mineralization grading 694 g/t silver, 4.23% lead, and 3.56% zinc at the same elevation and may also be part of the potential bridge.

The Company is also pleased to report that preliminary results from the property-wide airborne electromagnetic (EM) and magnetic (Mag) survey flown by Aeroquest International Limited in February 2007 have been received. Of particular interest is a strong northwest elongate Mag high along the southwest flank of the range beneath the Zorra and Saltillera areas (four to five kilometres west of the Platosa manto deposits) where widespread marble, hornfels, silicification, skarn and local high-grade mineralization occur. Recent drilling in this area has encountered significant thicknesses of polyphase granitic intrusions affected by strong pyritization, potassic and sericitic alteration, and sulphide stringers. EM conductors flank this high in several places and locally correspond to NSAMT conductors from earlier surveys. Similar intrusive systems are central to the largest Carbonate Replacement Deposits worldwide and mineralized skarn bodies along their contacts are major sources of silver, lead, zinc and copper in Mexico. Excellon is incorporating the survey results into its targeting criteria and will continue testing the Saltillera-Zorra area with two diamond drills. The data reviewed by Excellon geologists to date has not been fully processed and interpreted. Excellon expects that final results will be available by early May.

"We are very pleased to be tracing the anticipated link between the Guadalupe and Guadalupe South Mantos, both because continuity of mineralization is a hallmark of major manto systems, and because this represents additional mineralization easily extracted through our existing test-mining infrastructure," said Richard Brissenden, Excellon's chairman and CEO. "We are also pleased to see the extent and strength of the Mag and EM anomalies in the preliminary airborne data. The surface alteration and mineralization above these anomalies has long suggested that the source of the Platosa system lies in this area and the nature of the intrusions and related alteration reinforce this. We look forward to drilling the additional targets we expect will be indicated by the final processed airborne results."
