Hier der Text von BBX:

Note From the Editor on Featured Article: Soltera Mining Corp. is a new issue to the market which boasts an impressive management team. Their flagship El Torno Property is a past producing mine located in Northern Argentina. Historically, El Torno is a large gold-rich quartz vein up to 14 km long and 14 m wide that was worked by the Incas, Jesuits and Spanish. Most recently Latin Americas leading producer of refined gold, Peñoles, re-interpreted Puma Mineral's exploration drill data and after further work Peñoles estimated (non 43-101 compliant) that a 1.3 km length of the vein would have the potential for more than 500,000 ounces of gold to a depth of 100 m and that a 2 to 2.5 km length to a depth of 400 m would have potential for more than 2 million ounces (assuming a grade of 10 g/t). The vein has more than 1,000 m of underground galleries. The vein extends north-south, is sub-vertical, and is accompanied in places by a stockwork system of small quartz and pyrite veins that can extend up to 300 m from the main vein.

Historical exploration had revealed results that are indicative of the exceptionally prospective nature of the El Torno claim which made it a highly sought after mining concession. The title holder has entered into exploration agreement with Soltera Mining Corp. and with irrevocable final option rights to purchase by Soltera makes this new opportunity to the markets an exceptional candidate for upside price valuation as Soltera executes upon its plan on such an impressive claim.

(Frankfurt Stock Exchange: SN7)

World-class technical leadership with a highly prospective claim

"Dr. Fabio Montanari, Soltera's President/CEO, is a mining professional who literally wrote the book on mining (his text books are currently used by a number of universities in their mining graduate programs) and has personally relocated from Italy to the location of Soltera's prized El Torno mining project in Argentina to ensure success and maximize shareholder value - certainly an example of leadership that will "walk the talk" and one of a host of reasons for us to take the time to familiarize ourselves with what may well be one for the books. The recent addition of Dr. Kevan L. Ashworth to Soltera's board of Directors should give cause for astute investors to pay attention as Dr. Ashworth is internationally renowned for his extensive knowledge and background in the mining industry and is currently a Director of a number of companies involved in mineral exploration, and is retained as an adviser by several London investment organizations." Article by James O'Rourke

Soltera Mining Corp. is a new issue to the markets, listed on the US OTCBB (ticker symbol SLTA) and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (ticker symbol SN7). Soltera has come to our attention, in part, due to the highly qualified management teams success in mining and the exceptional prospective nature of Soltera's flagship El Torno project in Northern Argentina that has the earmarking of a significant gold mine.

Soltera Mining Corp. is an exploration stage company primarily focused on the exploration of its El Torno project in the province of Jujuy, Argentina. The El Torno gold prospect is a past-producing gold mine and Soltera believes that modern exploration techniques will allow for the further extraction of gold from the area.

The El Torno project is located in the Andean Cordillera in the extreme north-west of Argentina near the international border with Bolivia. The region is at altitudes around 4,000 m and the nearest permanent habitation is the village of Santa Catalina about 20 km to the east. The property consists of four mining rights covering a total area of 7,800 hectares. Soltera has an agreement with the titleholder that includes payments totalling US$350,000 to 30th June 2010 and an obligation to spend US$1 million on exploration during the first two years of the agreement. Various additional payments can be made to extend the exploration period, and Soltera has an option to acquire the mineral titles.

Historically, El Torno is a large gold-rich quartz vein up to 14 km long and 14 m wide that was worked by the Incas, Jesuits and Spanish and has more than 1,000 m of underground galleries. The vein extends north-south, is sub-vertical, and is accompanied in places by a stockwork system of small quartz and pyrite veins that can extend up to 300 m from the main vein.

The prospect was investigated by Puma Minerals in 1997 who carried out more than 2,100 m of drilling; then by Peñoles in 1999, who undertook trenching, grab sampling, geological surveying as well as a geophysical IP survey. Soltera believes results from these two former exploration programs justify further exploration of the prospect.

As the El Toro project is a past-producing mine going back centuries, the author of this article has independently investigated for the purpose of determining what type of historic results and observations serve as possible indicators and has learnt that impressive historic (non 43-101 compliant) numbers were recorded by Puma Mineral's 1997 drilling; Gold values for the main vein were between 5 g/t and 37 g/t and the stockwork system showed up to 23 g/t gold accompanied by silver in the ratio of 1:1. Subsequently Peñoles re-interpreted the Puma Minerals drill data and after further aforementioned work estimated (non 43-101 compliant) that a 1.3 km length of the vein would have the potential for more than 500,000 ounces of gold to a depth of 100 m and that a 2 to 2.5 km length to a depth of 400 m would have potential for more than 2 million ounces (assuming a grade of 10 g/t). Additionally, the current titleholder has recently (within the last year) mined parts of the upper 2 to 3 m of parts of the vein and an alluvial deposit near to the vein; the gold was recovered as particles and micro-nuggets, which suggests that gold in the vein is free rather than locked in pyrite grains. To be noted: the aforementioned are non 43-101 and are not to be relied upon for investment purposes, they merely form a basis for better understanding the prospective nature of the claim.

Infrastructure on the El Torno Project is very good as the area is accessible by road all year round, and on the property there is a gravity concentration plant, a guest-house with 6 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and four other rooms, a warehouse with two electric generators, water pumps and other facilities. Water is abundant in a nearby river.

Soltera has stated they will undertake geochemical sampling, geological mapping and geophysical surveys throughout the area in order to define precise drilling targets. Soltera plans to commence the exploration program with geochemical prospecting to evaluate the presence of mineralization along and around the complete vein, as well as in specific areas of the stockwork system. Based on results of targeted geophysical prospecting, Soltera would undertake trenching and drilling to evaluate the economics of the deposit.

Undervalued Opinion: El Torno is a large proven gold-rich quartz vein up to 14 km long and 14 m wide. With under 45M shares outstanding and this new issue trading under US$1 per share the likely upside potential is clearly evident considering the following 5 points... 1) the long history of mining on this highly sought-after claim, 2) the aforementioned historic exploration has given rise to quality indicators and opinions, 3) the fact that modern exploration techniques have not been applied to much of the claim area, 4) there appears to be good exploration potential in parts of the vein not previously intersected by drill holes or old workings (in fact - the three IP geophysical profiles carried out by Peñoles suggest the presence of a flanking structure with moderate to high chargeability that is located at depth between 50 and 125 m and has not yet been tested), 5) the calibre and dedication of management & technical leadership is second to none (see summary biographies of key management below).

SOLTERA MINING –
Mit 2 Millionen Unzen Gold vor Kursverdopplung

Nachdem sich unsere beiden letzten Empfehlungen EMED MINING (A0EQ1D) und PEDIMENT EXPLORATION (A0DJ74) hervorragend entwickelt haben und binnen weniger Monate deutliche Pluszeichen von 50% bis 100% vorweisen können, möchten wir Ihnen heute einen neuen Wert vorstellen, welchem wir ebenfalls ein deutliches Kurspotenzial zusprechen.

Wie auch bei den vergangenen Empfehlungen handelt es sich bei unserer Neuvorstellung um ein Unternehmen, welches über ein besonders herausragendes Hauptprojekt verfügt und unserer Meinung nach und auch der Meinung von führenden weltweiten Rohstoffkonzernen, das Potenzial zum Company-Maker besitzt.

SOLTERA MINING (Frankfurt, WKN A0MTAL, USA: SLTA) ist eine noch sehr junge Explorationsgesellschaft mit Hauptsitz in Kanada. Neben einem herausragenden Hauptprojekt konnte in den vergangenen Wochen auch ein erfahrenes Managementteam zusammengestellt werden, das die Führung des Unternehmens neu ausrichtet.

Der ausschlaggebende Punkt, warum wir auf SOLTERA MINING aufmerksam geworden sind, ist das neu akquirierte Hauptprojekt des Unternehmens. Durch eine Gesamtübernahme von INCAS MINERALS wurde die historische Goldmine EL TORNO in der argentinischen Provinz Jujuy akquiriert.

Jujuy ist die nördlichste Provinz Argentiniens und die EL TORNO Mine liegt am nordwestlichen Rand von Jujuy, nahe an der Grenze zu Bolivien. Die nächste größere Stadt ist Santa Catalina, die sich etwa 20 Kilometer östlich des Projektes befindet.

Die Vorgeschichte von EL TORNO

EL TORNO ist eine Goldmine, in der bereits Jahrzehnte zuvor mit einfachsten Mitteln Gold abgebaut wurde. Das Hauptvorkommen ist eine 14 Kilometer lange und bis zu 14 Meter breite goldreiche Hauptader auf dem Gebiet. Durch die historische Goldförderung der Inkas sind noch mehr als 1.000 Meter an alten unterirdischen Minenschächten vorhanden.

Das gesamte Gebiet besteht aus vier zusammenhängenden Abbaulizenzen, die eine Gesamtfläche von 7.800 Hektar umfassen. Besonders herauszuheben ist die vorhandene Infrastruktur auf und rund um EL TORNO. Die Mine ist ganzjährig über eine Straße erreichbar und Santa Catalina liegt nur ca. 20 Kilometer vom Projekt entfernt. Auf dem Gebiet sind unter anderem eine Verarbeitungsanlage zur Gesteinssortierung und ein Gästehaus mit sechs Schlafzimmern, zwei Badezimmern und vier weiteren Räumen vorhanden. Dieses Gästehaus eignet sich zur Unterbringung des Explorationsteams und erspart kosten- und zeitaufwendige Arbeiten, um ein Explorationscamp zu errichten. Außerdem gibt es noch ein Lagerhaus mit zwei Elektrogeneratoren und einer Wasserpumpe, die am nahe gelegenen Fluss angeschlossen werden kann.

Nach dem jahrelangen einfachen Goldabbau auf EL TORNO hat das kanadische Explorationsunternehmen PUMA MINERALS die Eigentumsrechte erworben. Neben einem umfangreichen Probensammlungsprogramm zur Identifizierung der interessantesten Gebiete wurde in 1997 auch ein anschließendes Bohrprogramm mit über 2.000 Bohrmetern durchgeführt. In diesem 16 Bohrlöcher umfassendem Programm wurden Zonen außerhalb der bekannten hochgradigen goldreichen Hauptader getestet und auch in diesen weiter abgelegenen Zonen wurden Goldmineralisierungen festgestellt. Die Gehalte erreichten Werte von 0,65 g/t Gold über 56 Meter bis 3,38 g/t Gold über einen Abschnitt von 8 Metern. Für PUMA MINERALS war damals schon klar, dass EL TORNO eine große Goldlagerstätte ist und hatte das Projekt als Hauptfokus! Nachdem BEMA GOLD im Jahre 1998 die kontrollierende Mehrheit an PUMA MINERALS übernommen hat, wurde das Projekt im Zuge der Umstrukturierung zwangsweise abgegeben.

Neuer Besitzer wurde anschließend kein geringerer als INDUSTRIA PENOLES (http://www.penoles.com.mx), dem weltweit führenden Anbieter von raffiniertem Silber! PENOLES führte ein umfangreiches Explorationsprogramm zwischen August und Dezember 1999 durch. Nach Auswertung der durchgeführten Probesammlungen und einem detaillierten IP-Survey zeigte sich das überdurchschnittliche Potenzial von EL TORNO.

Es wurden Goldgehalte in der Hauptader zwischen 5 g/t und 37 g/t festgestellt und das Unternehmen schätzte das Potential eines ersten Teilabschnittes mit der Länge von 1,3 Kilometer und einer Tiefe von 100 Metern bereits auf mindestens 500.000 Unzen Gold!

Aufgrund der positiven Phase I des Explorationsprogramms leitete PENOLES die nächste Stufe ein und mit Hilfe von aeromagnetischen Untersuchungen wurden nur ein Kilometer nördlich des alten Abbaugebietes weitere potentielle Goldlagerstätten entdeckt. PENOLES lies von einem Geologen einen Bericht über das Gesamtpotential der Liegenschaft erstellen, der sowohl die Explorationsarbeiten vom Vorbesitzer PUMA MINERALS als auch die eigenen umfasste.

In diesem Bericht schätzt der Geologe, die Ausdehnung der goldreichen Hauptader auf 2 Kilometer Länge und einer Tiefe bis zu 400 Meter. Gemäß diesem Bericht ging PENOLES unter Einbeziehung der bisher vorliegenden Daten von einem Gesamtpotential von mindestens 2 Millionen Unzen Gold aus! Die prognostizierten durchschnittlichen Goldgehalte mit 5 – 10 g/t klingen ebenfalls äußerst viel versprechend und würden wirtschaftlich hochprofitabel abbaubar sein!

SOLTERA MINING –

Das Gold ist schon da, die Frage ist nur: WIEVIEL?

Nachdem sich PENOLES aus dem Explorationsbereich gänzlich zurückgezogen hatte und sich auf die Raffinerien im Rohstoffsektor spezialisiert hatte, lag dieses „Goldstück“ für viele Jahre brach und unentdeckt.

Heute, knapp 9 Jahre später und bei einem deutlich gestiegenen Goldpreis, gelang es SOLTERA MINING dieses Projekt zu akquirieren. Die bereits durchgeführten Arbeiten auf dem Gebiet und die umfangreich vorhandenen Explorationsergebnisse bieten klare Vorteile gegenüber vielen anderen Explorationsunternehmen.

Das Gold ist schon da, SOLTERA MINING hat jetzt die dankbare Aufgabe die genaue Größe des Vorkommens zu bestimmen. Dies soll auch bei den Explorationsarbeiten in den nächsten Monaten die entscheidende Rolle spielen. Zur Leitung von SOLTERA MINING wurde der aus Italien stammende Geologe Dr. Fabio Montanari bestellt. Dr. Montanari ist seit 25 Jahren erfolgreich als Geologe für weltweite Rohstoffunternehmen am Markt tätig und seine Expertise in Südamerika wird bei der Entwicklung von SOLTERA MINING ganz entscheidend sein.

3-Monats-Chart SOLTERA MINING in USD:

Fazit und Bewertung:

Die wichtigste Voraussetzung für eine positive Investmententscheidung bei der Auswahl von Explorationsunternehmen ist das Hauptprojekt des Unternehmens. Hier müssen grundsätzlich die folgenden Fragen gestellt werden:

1. Hat das Explorationsunternehmen die Chance,
den gewünschten Rohstoff zu finden?

2. Besitzt das entdeckte Vorkommen eine lukrative Größe?

3. Würde sich ein Abbau aufgrund der Größe und der Gehalte rechnen?

Bei SOLTERA MINING lassen sich aufgrund der vorliegenden historischen Explorationsresultate von PUMA MINERALS und INDUSTRIAS PENOLES alle diese Fragen klar mit JA beantworten.

Dies ist auch der Grund, warum wir diese noch junge Aktie als klaren Kauf einstufen und ein deutliches Kurspotential von über 100% vom aktuellen Niveau weg sehen. Wir raten zum spekulativen Kauf und sehen ein Kursziel auf die nächsten 6 Monate von 1,50 USD bzw. 1,10 Euro.

@ Lucky

mit den Ferien, das finde ich eine sehr gute Idee. Wollte immer schon mal nach Argentinien. Schauen wir mal was daraus wird. Hop oder Top!

JUJUY, ARGENTINA, Dec 10, 2007 (Marketwire via COMTEX News Network) --
Dr. Fabio Montanari, President and CEO of Soltera Mining Corp. (OTCBB:SLTA)(FRANKFURT:SN7) is pleased to announce that initial exploration is well underway at El Torno, Soltera's flagship gold property in Jujuy, Argentina.

Geochemical stream sediments have been sampled to evaluate the presence of mineralization along and around the whole gold-quartz vein system, as well as in specific areas of the stockwork. Soltera is now awaiting the analytical results of these geochemical assays from a Canadian chemical laboratory.

Further to the above, in November the exploration team commenced structural geological mapping and is currently re-interpreting the geological situation. Evidence to date suggests that the gold-quartz vein structure is different from previous interpretations and the mineralization could be more widespread than previously thought.

This activity will be followed in the first quarter of 2008 by trenching and geophysical surveys in order to define precise drilling targets for the second quarter of 2008.

Mining Expert Interviewed on Site Visit to Soltera Mining Corp.'s Argentina El Torno Gold Project

Metals and Minerals Digest has published an interview with gold and silver mining expert, journalist David Bond. The regular Kitco contributor and award winning journalist makes a compelling case for being long Soltera Mining Corp. (OTCBB: SLTA).

NEW YORK, NY, January 18, 2008 /Sector Newswire/ - Metals and Minerals Digest has published an interview with gold and silver mining expert, journalist David Bond following his site visit to Soltera Mining Corp.’s (OTCBB:SLTA) Argentina El Torno gold project.

The full interview may be seen at

http://sectornewswire.com/MandMBondJan08.pdfhttp://sectornewswire.com/MandMBondJan08.pdf

Soltera’s El Torno Project has a gold-rich quartz vein up to 14 km long and 14 m wide where highly qualified opinion (non 43-101) backed by historic exploration is that characteristics for 2M ounces exists in just one small section of the vein. Mr. David Bond, has recently returned from a tour of Soltera Mining Corp.’s El Torno project. David is an award winning journalist, he is a regular contributor to Kitco, is an expert in the gold and silver mining industry, and he publishes a web site silverminers.com.

Excerpts of Interview with David Bond

Excerpt 1) “David Bond, Mining Expert: It’s compelling for two reasons; number one, it’s a good exploration play, also it’s a very good production play. The mine has historic (non NI43-101) numbers, … Peñoles drilled the thing out ten years ago, they found at minimum a half a million ounces of gold – projecting strike and the depth of the vein there – you’re probably looking at a world class deposit. For a company with a market cap like $20 Million you just can’t lose."

Excerpt 2) “Metals & Minerals Digest: In some photos we have seen, one photo specifically, you were walking through the stock work I guess, through the tunnels that were built, what were your observations through there?

David Bond, Mining Expert: What impressed me was what confident ground it was. This is very solid ground, it very good ground, the air is good, in other words its not going to be a hassle to mine – you get into some places where you have water issues, you have ratty rock confidence – that’s not the case here."

Excerpt 3) "Metals & Minerals Digest: Parts of El Torno was mined in spots by the Incas, Spanish, and the Jesuits back centuries ago using highly primitive means. It has only been recently that Puma and Peñoles went in and used modern exploration methods, they pulled out extremely good drill results, results that if replicated and enhanced upon would certainly warrant mine production.

David Bond, Mining Expert: You know they produced good drill results right from the surface and what company President, Dr Montanari is envisioning is a ramp down a little bit to follow the decline in the vein. If they do that - and again this is free gold, its combined with quartz, you have to crush the quartz to float the gold out of it, but it’s a very off the shelf conventional one – there is nothing exotic about it but our requirements very well - It’s a no-brainer".

Metals & Minerals Digest: With the technical leadership that Soltera has, Company President Dr. Fabio Montanari is the Geologist, I understand he’s located near to the property and is conducting preliminary exploration. You had a chance to meet with Dr. Montanari, any comments from him that might be of interest to our listeners?

David Bond, Mining Expert: Well he’s written most of the economic geology text books, they are required reading if you study geology in Europe. He’s one of the brightest guys out here, he knows the country, and best of all he has a good relationship … He loves what he does. This guy – I wish we had him up here in Idaho, he’s a bright guy.

Metals & Minerals Digest: From what we know about the recent drilling by Puma and Peñoles; Impressive historic numbers were recorded by Puma minerals back in I believe it was the late 90s and their gold values from the main vein were between 5 g/t and 37 g/t and the stockwork system showed up to 23 g/t gold accompanied by silver in the ratio of 1:1. Subsequently Peñoles re-interpreted the Puma Minerals drill data and after further aforementioned work estimated (non 43-101 compliant) that a 1.3 km length of the vein would have the potential for more than 500,000 ounces of gold to a depth of 100 m and that a 2 to 2.5 km length to a depth of 400 m would have potential for more than 2 million ounces (assuming a grade of 10 g/t). I understand the current titleholder had also within the last year mined parts of the upper 2 to 3 m of parts of the El Torno vein and an alluvial deposit near to the vein … now I read “the gold was recovered as particles and micro-nuggets”, can you explain that to us?

David Bond, Mining Expert: Well micro particles would be detached from the quartz, it’s a free gold cyst, which means the gold is imbedded in the quartz, you have to brush up the quartz – you have to crush it and then float it to get the gold out. Not a difficult thing metallurgic, but you pick up a flight rock you don’t realize what you’re holding might be gosh … quarter ounce of gold … you just don’t know. The preliminary work done by Peñoles and by the others, you have to remember was done at a cut off rate based on 2001 prices and gold was $300 - $280 an ounce."

Excerpt 4) "David Bond, Mining Expert: Well, sit down with your home calculator and figure $20 Million market cap and a potential 3 million ounces of gold, do the division."

Soltera Mining Corp. Acquires Rights to Mexican Gold Properties
3/5/2008

SONORA, MEXICO, Mar 5, 2008 (Marketwire via COMTEX News Network) --
Soltera Mining Corp. (OTCBB:SLTA)(FRANKFURT:SN7) is pleased to announce that it has acquired rights to two new gold properties via its acquisition of Atzek Mineral, S.A. de CV.
The "Casita Colorada" property consists of three mining claims totalling 150 hectares located in the central part of Sonora State, Mexico, 45 km from Hermosillo City. The property contains a major mineralized gold-bearing shear zone that extends for more than 400 metres and is up to 150 metres wide. The mineralization consists of quartz, kaolin, iron oxides, tourmaline, pyrite and free gold.

The old Casita Colorado Mine was developed at the end of the 1800s and there are old shallow workings that extend for some 165 metres in the form of trenches and pits. The old mine exploited gold-quartz-kaolin in the shear zone, but some eluvial gold is still being recovered from surface material in the vicinity of the mine. The substantial size of the shear zone, the style of mineralization and the presence of extensive old workings make Casita Colorado a clear and attractive exploration target.

The "Real de Cananea" property consists of three mining claims totalling 1,030 hectares located in the north east of Sonora State, Mexico, approximately 40 km from the Arizona (USA) border. The gold mineralization is within intensely altered volcanic rocks cut by silicified fault zones in an area more than 400 metres long and up to 270 metres wide. Gold occurs disseminated in the altered rocks and is in some places concentrated, together with quartz, hematite and pyrite in or adjacent to the quartz veins.

A small underground mine is located in the middle of the property and has apparently been worked intermittently since the time of the Spaniards or before. The hard rock composing the mine was worked with enormous effort, which indicates the importance of the mineralization. The potential extent of mineralization, combined with the favourable location, convenient road access, proximity to power and water, and the nearby presence of an experienced mining labour force combine to make the Real de Cananea prospect a very attractive exploration target.

Soltera Mining Corp. Acquires Interest in Argentinean Copper-Gold Property
Monday March 10, 9:00 am ET

JUJUY, ARGENTINA--(Marketwire - March 10, 2008) - Soltera Mining Corp. ("Soltera") (OTCBB:SLTA - News; FRANKFURT:SN7 - News) is pleased to announce that it has acquired the underlying option agreement on the Eureka Property, a copper-gold prospect located in the Jujuy province of Argentina. The 10,192.34 hectare property is located in the northwest corner of the province, near the border with Bolivia and just 1 km from Soltera's El Torno gold property.
ADVERTISEMENT

The option is to acquire 100% in the Eureka Property from the titleholder. TNR Gold Corp. ("TNR"), a Vancouver based mining company listed on the TSX with extensive experience in Argentina, has an option agreement with Soltera Mining Corp. to acquire a 75% interest in the property. TNR has agreed to spend a total of US$3,000,000 in exploration and option payments before April 30, 2010, with a minimum expenditure of US$500,000 per year. TNR has consented to the assignment of this underlying option agreement to Soltera. Further details regarding this assignment and details of the option agreement are expected to be filed on Form 8-K with the SEC by March 10, 2008.

The Eureka property contains "Red Bed-type" strata-bound copper mineralization within sedimentary strata consisting of sands, clays and conglomerates. The deposit is similar in style to major copper deposits in the Bolivian part of the Tertiary Belt. A geological estimate in the late 1990s (historical resources estimate which is not compliant with modern standards such as NI 43-101) was 50 to 60 million tons grading 1% copper. There is also some gold associated with parts of the copper deposit. Alluvial gold mineralization has been worked at the Eureka Mine since prior to the time of the Spanish arrival.

Only 70 meters of the 450-meter deep prospective Eureka formation has been explored to date, which leaves extensive upside potential. Exploration work will include detailed geological mapping, trenching, geochemical sampling and an IP survey. The property contains over 5 km of historic underground workings, of which the parts not flooded will be cleaned out, re-sampled and analyzed for copper, gold and other elements. Drilling will follow upon the completion of these works.
