    Moin,


    was ist denn hier für eine Palastrevolution ausgebrochen?


    ?(


    Ich hab mir mal die Beiträge von gogh die letzten Seiten durchgelesen und nichts entdeckt, was den Regeln widerspricht. Wobei ich nicht alle Beiträge kenne oder irgendwelche Äußerungen, die eine Sperrung rechtfertigen würden.


    Hier die Regeln, die eigentlich vernünftig klingen:


    Dieses Forum wird von uns zur Verfügung gestellt, um die Möglichkeit zu geben, sich mit anderen Nutzern zu den unterschiedlichsten Themen gedanklich auszutauschen. Wir sind an lebhaften Diskussionen und dem Äußern verschiedener Meinungen sehr interessiert, dulden aber keine persönlichen Angriffe.
    Um den Interessen aller Nutzer gerecht zu werden, bitten wir um Einhaltung folgender Punkte:


    1. Die allgemeinen Gesetze und Rechtsvorschriften sind einzuhalten. Insbesondere dulden wir keine persönlichen Angriffe, die auf der Rasse, der Nationalitätsangehörigkeit, der ethnischen Herkunft, der Religion, dem Geschlecht, der sexuellen Orientierung, einer Behinderung oder sonstigen ähnlichen Unterschieden beruhen. Wenn Du eine Meinungsverschiedenheit mit jemandem hast, bleibe sachlich und werden nicht persönlich.


    2. Ausdrücklich verboten ist die Verbreitung von Inhalten, mit denen zum Haß gegen Teile der Bevölkerung aufgerufen wird (Volksverhetzung) oder mit denen Propaganda für eine verfassungsfeindliche Organisation betrieben wird.


    3. Weiter dulden wir keinen Gebrauch vulgärer, mißbräuchlicher oder haßerfüllter Sprache. Beweise deinen guten Geschmack und bezeuge den anderen Mitgliedern den ihnen zustehenden Respekt.


    4. Verboten ist weiter, den Dialog verschiedener Nutzer wissentlich zu stören; z.B. durch wiederholtes Unterbrechen der Konversation zwischen anderen Mitgliedern, durch Belästigungen oder durch die Schaffung von Feindbildern oder Feindseligkeiten.
    Wir behalten uns aber bei Nichtbeachtung o.g. Nutzungsbedingungen vor, einzelne Beiträge (ohne vorherige Ankündigung) zu löschen oder - bei wiederholten Verstößen - einzelnen Nutzern zeitweise oder ganz den Zutritt zu versperren.


    5. Es ist nicht erlaubt private Daten wie Namen, Adressen, Telefonnummer o.ä. in Beiträgen zu veröffentlichen. Auch dürfen private E-Mails oder Nachrichten im Forum nicht ohne Einverständnis des Absenders veröffentlicht werden. Beiträge die gegen diese Regeln verstoßen werden ohne vorherige Warnung gelöscht.


    6. Wir bemühen uns stetig, in jedem Forum eine kompetente Moderation durch von GoldSeiten-Forum.de ausgewählte Moderatoren zu erreichen. Die Moderatoren geniessen unser vollstes Vertrauen und sind nicht als Polizei des Forums anzusehen, sondern als Ansprechpartner für Userfragen sowie als kompetenter Gesprächspartner. Dennoch obliegt es den Moderatoren bei offensichtlichen Verstößen gegen unsere genannten Richtlinien, die entsprechenden User zu verwarnen und bei mehrmaliger Wiederholung von der Diskussion auszuschließen.


    Aber mir zeigt diese Diskussion hier, die offensichtlich ihr Ende findet in diesem Forum, eines:


    Wenn das Interesse an Edelmetallen dermaßen gering ist, dass dem Forum die User weglaufen und die Moderatoren hohl drehen, dann ist die Wende wohl nicht mehr weit. Wenn Gold über 1000 steht, dann wird das Forum hier aus allen Nähten platzen.


    Keep Cool hier!


    Ich melde mich wieder, wenn es was zu melden gibt.


    Gruß :rolleyes:

    vielen Dank Midas, sehr guter Artikel! Macht nachdenklich, aber bereitet einen innerlich aus alle möglichen Szenarien vor, ob sie eintreffen mögen oder nicht.


    Übrigens: American Bulls: MGN-Signal: BUY! Also, wird schon wieder! Blos jetzt nicht verkaufen, das wäre wohl der größte Fehler. Wenn man sozusagen am Low ist, darf man das nicht. Außer es wäre nicht das Low, aber ich denke, viel tiefer geht es nimmer. Und wer weiß, vielleicht sind wir schon im Upswing.

    ACADIAN GOLD BUYS OUT 2% ROYALTY INTEREST ON SCOTIA MINE FROM SAVAGE RESOURCES FOR CDN$1.45 MILLION


    5/29/2007
    Halifax, NS May 29, 2007


    FSC / Press Release



    ACADIAN GOLD BUYS OUT 2% ROYALTY INTEREST ON SCOTIA MINE FROM SAVAGE RESOURCES FOR CDN$1.45 MILLION


    Halifax, Nova Scotia CANADA, May 29, 2007 /FSC/ - Acadian Gold Corporation (TSX - VX: ADA), announced today that it has exercised its option to buy-out the 2% royalty interest ("Royalty Interest") in the sale of ore, ore concentrates and other products from the zinc-lead operations of ScoZinc Limited ("ScoZinc") currently held by Savage Resources Limited ("Savage") for cash consideration of CDN$1,450,000. Savage's predecessor had retained the royalty interest at the time of selling its interest in the Scotia Mine (zinc-lead), located at Gays River, Nova Scotia, in 2002. Acadian Gold paid $50,000 to Savage to acquire the buy-out option in May, 2006.


    The Scotia Mine is presently being commissioned and is expected to be in full production by mid-July, 2007. The Scotia Mine is scheduled to produce 30,000 tonnes of high grade (60%) zinc concentrate and 10,000 tonnes of high grade (75%) lead concentrate on an annualized basis.


    The Scotia Mine has proven and probable reserves (diluted and recoverable) grading 3.6% zinc and 1.7% lead totalling 4.59 million tonnes which are expected to support a mine life of 7.5 years (based on production of 2,000 tonnes per day for 5 years from an open pit on the Main Deposit and 1,350 tonnes per day for 2.5 years from underground mining on the Northeast Deposit). In addition to these reserves, the Scotia Mine hosts an inferred resource (0.75% zinc equivalent cut-off) of 1.8 million tonnes grading 3.1% zinc and 1.1% lead, as well as an uncategorized, non-National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource of 4.5 million tonnes grading 1.9% zinc and 1.3% lead, known as the Getty Deposit. The Getty Deposit resource is historical in nature and should not be relied upon, however, a data computation program designed to support a new resource estimation is currently underway. In addition, a major diamond drilling program comprising both infill drilling to provide coverage on 50 metre x 50 metre centres and deposit expansion drilling is expected to get underway in early June.


    First phase diamond drilling will be conducted on two zinc-lead prospective targets known as the Carroll prospect located approximately 2 kilometres west of the Scotia Mine and the Dexter prospect located immediately north of the Northeast Deposit.


    Will Felderhof, President and CEO, stated "Commissioning of the Scotia Mine is coming along very well and we are on target at this time to be in full production by mid-July".

    China ups tax on metals, steel exports

    (Adds comments, writes through)


    By Niu Shuping


    BEIJING, May 21 (Reuters) - China will impose or increase taxes on a range of metal exports in an effort to control exports by energy-intensive industries and ease its huge trade surplus, the Ministry of Finance said on Monday.


    The announcement came ahead of a "strategic economic dialogue" in Washington this week between high-level U.S. and Chinese officials at which China's huge trade surplus is likely to be a major bone of contention.


    The change will "further control exports of energy-and-resource-intensive products which cause high pollution, to promote the balance of trade," the ministry said in a statement on its Website, http://www.mof.gov.cn.


    China would impose a tax of between 5 and 10 percent on exports of more than 80 types of steel products, it said.


    China's soaring steel exports in particular had raised tensions with the United States and Europe, and higher taxes on steel exports had been expected.


    This week, China began a licensing system for exports of 83 types of steel products in a move also expected to curb the export surge.


    "China's steel exports should be lower in the second half than in the first half," said Qi Xiangdong, vice-secretary general of the China Iron and Steel Association.


    "Steel exports in 2007 will be around the same level as last year, considering the huge export volume in April," he said. Mills and traders racing to beat export policy changes shipped a a record 7.16 million tonnes of steel products last month.


    "What I worry is that such strong and continuous measures by the government will hit many steel mills hard. Many will lose money, some could close and unemployment problems could arise," said Li Xinchuang, vice-president of the China Metallurgical Industry and Research Institute.


    Exports would not slow down much this year since most contracts had been signed already, but next year could see a big fall-off, Li predicted.


    The changes take effect on June 1. The short statement did not give a precise breakdown of which metals were included in the change, but a detailed list is normally issued after such announcements.


    METALS


    The export tax for metals including unwrought zinc will rise to 10 percent from 5 percent, while a 10 percent tax will be added to exports of refined lead.


    The statement did not mention aluminium products, which currently enjoy a rebate of 8 to 11 percent, but many traders expect that to be removed sometime this year. Exports have doubled in the first four months of this year, but the aluminium industry has argued that products production is not a polluting process.


    The export tax on steel billet and pig iron will rise to 15 percent from the current 10 percent, in line with market talk last week.


    "The tax move is within the market's expectation," said analyst Luo Wei at China International Capital Corp.


    "China saw larger-than-expected steel exports in April due to strong overseas demand. I think the tax move can efficiently lower exports in the months to come."


    Some ferro-alloy exports will be taxed at 15 percent, up from the current 5 to 10 percent, again in line with government warnings of overheated investment in that sector.


    Below is a table of taxes announced by the Finance Ministry on Monday. A detailed breakdown is expected later:


    NEW TAX (PCT) PREVIOUS TAX (PCT)


    unwrought zinc 10 5


    refined lead 10 0


    steel products 5-10 0


    steel billet 15 10


    pig iron 15 10


    ferro-alloys 15 5-10


    rare earths 10 0


    some metal scrap 10 0 ores (inc. nickel, chromium, tungsten, rare earths)


    15 10

    Acadian Gold, Blue Note, Breakwater Resources: A Trifecta of Zinc Producers


    Posted on May 11th, 2007 with stocks: ADGLF.PK, BNMFF.PK, BWLRF.OB


    Toby Hansen submits: The hot base metals of today are copper, nickel and molybdenum. Those who entered positions months or years ago in producers of these metals have seen their holdings appreciate several fold. While miners who produce these metals should continue to enjoy strong earnings and cash flow, their equity’s most dynamic gains are largely behind them. One key to finding stocks with the highest appreciation potential is to identify a metal largely off investor’s radar screens on the verge of a major move up. The other key is to identify companies that are rapidly increasing production of that metal. We will first focus on the next base metal likely to move up and then review three miners that are significantly increasing production over the next 12 months.


    The next base metal that is likely to move up strongly this year is Zinc. Fundamentals for zinc continue to be very strong. A major Zinc miner, Xstrata, has said they expect strong demand through 2013. The primary reason for strong demand is zinc’s use as a means to protect steel from corrosion. Galvanizing of steel (applying a zinc coating) is the largest use of zinc. Galvanized steel is critical for the development of infrastructure. India and China are rapidly growing, building infrastructure for their booming economies. With the combined GDP growth of both countries around 10% and with enormous populations, consumption of structural steel should go unabated for years to come. Insatiable demand for the metal has resulted in Zinc storage levels plummeting to historic lows. Consequently the price has responded dramatically.

    The Dynamic Trio of Zinc Producers


    Acadian Gold (ADGLF.PK)


    Acadian Gold has been primarily a gold exploration company. They purchased the Scotia Zinc mine in Nova Scotia last summer. The mine was originally built by a major oil company and operated briefly in the early 80’s until it closed due to poor economics. Acadian received the mine in excellent shape with minor amounts of investment required to bring the mine to production.


    The mine is expected to produce 40 million pounds of Zinc and 16 million pounds of Lead on an annual basis and has an estimated life of nine years. A feasibility study using a Zinc price of $1.10 and Lead price of $0.40 concluded annual cash flow to be approximately $11 million. Extrapolating these figures using present day prices, places cash flow to over $30 Million. Roughly every 10 cent increase in Zinc can result in an additional $4 million cash flow. Considering Acadian is trading for $1 (US) makes it a compelling stock to consider. Value is further enhanced by Acadian’s strong portfolio of gold properties with resources approaching 1.5 million ounces.


    TB3


    Blue Note (BNMFF.PK)


    This Company has refurbished an old mine they bought from Breakwater Resources. They are anticipating production start up next month with a ramp up to a staggering 100 million pounds of Zinc and of 40 million pounds Lead per year. Earnings and cash flow should be huge relative to the capitalization of the company.


    TB4


    Breakwater Resources (BWLRF.OB)


    Breakwater operates several mines in North and South America. According to their most recent presentation they are the highest leveraged company to the price of Zinc. The majority of their revenue does come from Zinc but they also have an impressive repertoire of production from Copper, Gold, Lead and Silver. Breakwater produces several hundred million pounds of zinc and they are bringing two more zinc producing mines online in the next few months. As zinc rapidly depletes and its price rises, Breakwater should do quite well.


    TB5


    Conclusion


    Zinc is likely to be one of the most talked about base metals later this year. Inventory is hovering slightly above historic lows and is threatening to move even lower. Prices are now beginning to reflect the tightness in the market and depletion of known storage. The three companies discussed Acadian, Blue Note and Breakwater are well positioned to take full advantage of a price explosion in Zinc with their rapidly increasing production profiles over the next year.

    In the first quarter of 2007, the Company:


    * Maintained strong cash and investment position with $3.5 million on hand at March 31, 2007.
    * Continued adding infrastructure at the Libby adit site.
    * Completed a water quality pilot plant test and analysis in the Libby adit.
    * Continued work with state and federal agencies to provide technical information in support of the preparation of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement.
    * Completed a detailed schedule and budget for the next two years for the Montanore project.


    Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, on April 20, 2007, the Company completed a US$30,000,000 public offering at $5.00 per unit in which 6,000,000 units, each comprised of one share of common stock and one half of a warrant to purchase one share of common stock, were sold, resulting in US$28,200,000 net proceeds to the Company after deducting underwriting commissions but before deducting offering expenses. As a result, the Company has sufficient funds on hand for the first three phases of its planned advanced exploration and delineation drilling program that it expects to undertake at the Montanore Project over the next two years. The Montanore Project continues to be the Company's main focus and, in addition to the planned delineation drilling program, the Company is continuing its permitting efforts with federal and state agencies and its optimization review.


    The Company has initiated its planned two-year advanced exploration and delineation drilling program at the Montanore Project. We expect to dewater and rehabilitate the Libby adit, and then advance the adit approximately 3,000 feet toward the middle of the deposit. We plan an additional 10,000 feet of development drifting to provide drill access to different portions of the deposit, construction of drill stations, and diamond core drilling of approximately 50 holes totaling approximately 45,000 feet. The objectives of our advanced exploration and delineation program are to:


    * Expand the known higher grade intercepts of the Montanore deposit;
    * Develop additional information about the deposit;
    * Further assess and define the mineralized zone; and
    * Provide additional geotechnical, hydrological, and other data.


    We expect that results of the drilling program, if successful, would provide data to support the completion of a bankable feasibility study. The net cash expenditures for operating activities for the quarter ending March 31, 2007 was $1.7 million. The Company believes that the recently completed financing, raising $28.2 million, net of commissions but before expenses, provides sufficient working capital for rehabilitation of the Libby adit and commencement of the evaluation drilling program over the next two years. In order to complete the planned program, the Company would need an additional $10 million in external financing.


    Permitting and Environmental


    During the first quarter of 2007, MMI continued to address technical questions and comments generated by the U.S. Forest Service and the Montana Department of Environment Quality (MDEQ) as they prepare the draft environmental impact statement (EIS) relating to the Montanore Project. In response, MMI submitted final technical information for the proposed tailings dam design and the transmission line and additional technical information regarding road use, mitigation of impact on grizzly bear and grizzly bear habitat and water management.


    The collection of the requested information culminated in the submission by MMI in February 2007 of a revised project description for the EIS incorporating all technical comments generated by the agencies to that point. Our third-party EIS contractor continues to work on alternative analyses of the environmental impacts of the Project.


    Geology


    In the first quarter of 2007, MMI continued work on the geologic model of the Montanore deposit, including digitally defining shapes that represent bedding planes and rock types. This geologic model will be enhanced with the results of the planned delineation drilling program, with the goal of better defining the predictability of the deposit ore grades and of the ore and mineralized zones.


    During the first quarter of 2007, MMI also identified potential geology staff for the Project with an emphasis on employing individuals to work on the upcoming delineation drilling program.


    Engineering


    The primary engineering focus during the first quarter of 2007 was the activity associated with installing infrastructure at the Libby adit site in preparation for the commencement of delineation drilling. Montanore Project optimization opportunities continued to be reviewed and developed by the engineering staff.


    Advanced Exploration and Delineation Drilling Program


    In July 2006, MMI initiated site preparation for the delineation drilling program planned at the Libby adit. These efforts continued in the first quarter of 2007, during which time MMI completed construction of the shop, office, and rehabilitation of the portal and generators. Ventilation fans and other equipment were installed in the Libby adit site.


    Following completion of the pilot scale tests of the water treatment method in 2007, MMI prepared a bid package that should be submitted in the second quarter of 2007, with delivery and commencement of operation of the water treatment plant anticipated to occur late in the second quarter and early third quarter of 2007.


    Also in the first quarter of 2007, MMI placed orders for underground equipment including a roof bolter, scissor deck, underground loader, and underground trucks, which are expected to begin arriving in May or June of 2007, with deliveries continuing throughout the year.


    MMI currently has four employees at the adit site and plans to hire four additional employees starting in the second quarter of 2007.


    Financial and Operating Results


    Mines Management is an exploration stage company with a large silver/copper project, the Montanore Project, located in northwest Montana. The Company continues to expense all of its expenditures and has no revenues from mining operations. Financial results of operations include primarily interest income, general and administrative expenses, permitting and engineering expenses, and other miscellaneous.


    Liquidity


    For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the net cash used for operating activities was $1.7 million, which largely consisted of permitting, engineering and site preparation expenses for the Libby adit rehabilitation and delineation drilling program. The net cash provided by investing activities for the quarter was $1.6 million from the sale of certificates of deposit. The net decrease in cash on hand at the end of the first quarter 2007 versus year end 2006 was $0.1 million. The Company anticipates spending approximately $15 million from cash and investments on hand for the final three quarters of 2007 for activities related to the Libby adit rehabilitation and delineation drilling program.

    Hi Folks,


    ich bin über einen ehemaligen aus dem Management von GAM auf den Wert aufmerksam geworden, Terry Coughlan. Er ist jetzt Vizedirektor von Acadian Gold, ADA. Kürzlich hat ADA Michael Baybak angeheuert, der GAM damals angeblich von 0,80 cent auf 20 Dollar hochhgepromotet hat. Ziemlich irre, ich kenn ja jetzt GAM nicht, aber es wäre natürlich gigantisch, wenn dieses Gespann den Preis von ADA auch vervielfachen könnte. ADA ist imho sehr aussichtsreich und derzeit noch relativ günstig bewertet.


    Frage: Hat hier jemand ne Ahnung, wie das bei Gammonlake ablief, Infos über Terry oder Baybak? Wäre froh um ein paar Hinweise, gerne per PN, da ich die Herren bisher nicht kannte.


    Viele Grüße

    Acadian Gold Corporation (Nachrichten) akzeptiert Aktionärs-Rechte-Plan


    Acadian Gold Corporation / Sonstiges/Sonstiges


    09.05.2007


    Veröffentlichung einer Corporate News, übermittelt durch die DGAP - ein Unternehmen der EquityStory AG. Für den Inhalt der Mitteilung ist der Emittent / Herausgeber verantwortlich. -------------------------------------------------------------------- -------


    Halifax, 08. Mai 2007, Meldung Nr. 15-07 - Acadian Gold Corporation (TSXV: ADA, WKN: A0D NW0, ausstehende Aktien 134.452.825) freut sich bekanntzugeben, dass der Vorstand des Unternehmens einen Aktionärs-Rechte-Plan akzeptiert hat, der darauf angelegt ist, die faire und gleiche Behandlung aller Aktionäre bei einem Übernahmeangebot für alle ausstehenden Wertpapiere des Unternehmens sicherzustellen. Der Rechteplan gibt dem Vorstand weitere Zeit, die Vor- und Nachteile jedes möglichen Angebots zu prüfen und alternative Vorschläge im besten Interesse aller Aktionäre ausfindig zu machen.


    Acadian Gold hat den Plan nicht als Antwort auf irgendein Angebot zur Übernahme der ausstehenden Aktien angenommen. Der Rechteplan ist anderen Plänen ähnlich, die von kanadischen Unternehmen akzeptiert und von deren Aktionären ratifiziert wurden. Es ist nicht die Absicht des Rechteplans, daß sich das Management verschanzt oder die Übernahme der Kontrolle über Acadian Gold zum Schaden der Aktionäre verhindert. Der Rechteplan tritt nicht bei Übernahmeangeboten in Kraft, die bestimmte Anforderungen erfüllen, z.B. wenn das Angebot im Wege eines Rundschreibens erfolgt, für mindestens 60 Tage offen ist und so den Aktionären die Gelegenheit gibt, die Vorzüge des Angebots zu bewerten.


    Der Rechteplan wurde vorläufig von der TSX Venture Exchange akzeptiert, bedarf aber der Ratifizierung der Aktionäre auf der Jahreshauptversammlung, die am 14. Juni 2007 abgehalten wird. Wenn er angenommen wird, hat der Plan eine erste Laufzeit bis zur Hauptversammlung von Acadian Gold im Jahre 2010. Dann kann er für eine zweite Periode bis zur Hauptversammlung des Jahres 2013 verlängert werden. Eine Kopie des Rechteplans wird auf SEDAR verfügbar sein und ist auch bei Acadian Gold erhältlich.

    Naja, als katastrophal würde ich es nicht unbedingt bezeichnen. Wichtig ist doch, dass das Projekt in die Gänge kommt.


    Mir sind die Kursschwankungen fast egal, denn wenn was draus wird, dann geht´s eh dermaßen was von up! Verfünffachen, das denke ich auch. Das ist auf jeden Fall drin.

    ACADIAN GOLD CORPORATION ANNOUNCES OPERATIONS COMMENCED AT SCOTIA ZINC-LEAD MINE
    10:01 EST Monday, May 07, 2007



    FSC / Press Release


    ACADIAN GOLD CORPORATION ANNOUNCES OPERATIONS COMMENCED AT SCOTIA ZINC-LEAD MINE


    Halifax, Nova Scotia CANADA, May 07, 2007 /FSC/ - Acadian Gold Corporation (ADA - TSX Venture), ("Acadian Gold") announced today that the Scotia Mine (zinc-lead) at Gays River, Nova Scotia, Canada has commenced operations. The mill is in the commissioning phase during which the mechanical components of the mill, related primarily to the crushing, grinding and flotation circuits, will be tested and proven to ensure that the flow of ore and treatment of materials is optimized.


    It is anticipated that the commissioning phase will be completed by late June to mid-July 2007 at which point the mill should be operating at the planned capacity of approximately 2,000 tonnes per day. During commissioning, daily throughput is expected to be in the range of 1,000 to 1,500 tonnes per day.


    Progress is being made in the negotiation of concentrate sales agreements, the details of which will be announced when agreements are concluded. The market for zinc and lead concentrate is very strong as reflected in the current zinc and lead prices of approximately US$1.74 per pound and US$0.93 per pound, respectively. Marketing of Scotia Mine product will be further facilitated by the superior quality of the concentrates. The zinc grade is 60% with less than 1% iron and the lead grade is 75%.


    If production targets are met in 2007 as expected, the Scotia Mine should produce approximately 23.4 million pounds of recoverable zinc metal and approximately 7.8 million pounds of recoverable lead metal. Targeted production for 2008 is approximately 44.6 million pounds of recoverable zinc metal and 19.1 million pounds of recoverable lead metal. The cash cost of production is projected to be approximately US$0.52 per pound zinc-equivalent in 2007 and approximately US$0.34 per pound zinc-equivalent in 2008.


    Photographs of the Scotia Mine operation can be viewed on the Acadian Gold's website at http://www.acadiangold.ca


    Management?s Opinion


    Will Felderhof, President and CEO stated, "The commencement of operations at Scotia Mine is a milestone event for Acadian Gold. We are pleased to be in a position to take full advantage of the current high prices of zinc and lead. We anticipate Scotia Mine to be the engine to drive the growth of Acadian Gold going forward. This is an exciting time for both our shareholders and the employees at Scotia Mine."
