    Das stimmt. Jeder von uns hat mindestens eine Schwäche:
    Habe seit einiger Zeit keine Aussies und Südafrikaner,war nach und nach begründet.
    Früher größere Anteile Kingsgate,Oxiana,Sino,oder GFI,HMY,DROOY,IMP usw.


    Und Siegel hat 59 % Aussies,merkwürdiges anderes Extrem.
    Jeder muß letztlich selbst wissen, was er will.
    Mit meinen rd.80% Kanadiern lebe ich nicht schlecht. :]


    Eigentlich ganz anderes Thema, wie sich ein Depot strukturiert!
    Es bleibt, daß eine eigene Einschätzung unerläßlich ist.

    Hallo kalle 14


    Danke, daß Du so mitdenkst. Aber diese Aktie hab ich nicht, auch nicht gehabt
    Der Artikel paßte in dies Thema hinein.


    Habe Canadian Oil Sands/ COS und Western Oil Sands / WTO.
    2 Bombenwerte,die ich als Langfristanlage sehe.
    Dies Gebiet ist wirklich weit vorgelaufen, aber die Zeit der Ölsande kommt IMO erst noch.

    Nun Deutschland und die Russen: es geht doch um Erdgas,
    und das verschenken die auch nicht ganz.
    Die Bindung hat nebenbei auch Tücken.


    Den Bericht mit dem Sprit habe ich auch gelesen, ist ne Schande mit unseren multiplen Steuern.

    India and China help gold sales to glittering $38bn
    By Peter Klinger


    RAMPANT economic growth in India and China have propelled consumer demand for gold jewellery to $38 billion (£20.6 billion).


    The World Gold Council said that the record figure for the 12 months to June was driven by favourable conditions in key markets and promotion of the metal.


    The gold price has been comparatively stable, in particular in the past six months, when the price oscillated between $420 per ounce and $440 per ounce. The gold price in London was $445.50 per ounce yesterday.


    The positive trend shows no sign of abating. This comes less than two years after most of the world’s key gold consumption markets reported stagnant conditions as metals such as platinum enjoyed increased popularity.


    The council, which is the marketing arm for the world’s leading goldminers, said that the June quarter had seen record demand in India and a third-successive quarterly increase in Turkey, another key gold jewellery market. The strong demand more than offset a weak performance in the UK, where gold jewellery purchases fell 14 per cent.


    Demand in China, a small but growing market, was up 12 per cent year-on-year.


    Demand for gold last year, including for investment and industrial purposes, also outstripped supply by 152 tonnes.


    The London-based council spends $50 million a year promoting gold jewellery and investment products. Aligned trade partners such as jewellers spend another $50 million.


    James Burton, chief executive of the council, said: “The figures are encouraging, not just for the gold market as a whole but also for the council due to the volume of statistical and other evidence that points to the effectiveness of the promotional campaigns that we are conducting.


    “By 2003, gold jewellery demand in all markets other than Turkey was either stagnant or in decline.


    “We have witnessed a turn-around over the last two years but we must build on this in the future. It is imperative that we not only maintain but increase our promotional efforts if gold jewellery is to either retain or grow its share of consumer spending.”


    Mr Burton said that the massive gold demand in the first six months of this year meant that the second half may be more subdued.


    A higher gold price could also deter investors. However, in India, the single biggest market for gold jewellery, the price of gold in rupees is off its peaks from late last year. India accounted for 517.5 tonnes of the world’s 2,611 tonnes of jewellery demand in 2004-05. The world’s second-most populous nation also accounted for 100.2 tonnes of the 342.7 tonnes of gold purchased by retail investors.


    Investors have increasingly flocked to gold as a hedge against a weak US dollar, while the precious metal continues to be viewed by some as a haven during times of inflation.


    The launch late last year of streetTRACKS Gold Fund, an exchange-traded fund on the New York Stock Exchange to complement the Gold Bullion Securities fund in London, proved a big success.


    GFMS, the leading precious metals consultancy, has forecast that the gold price could hit a 22-year high of $500 per ounce by next May.

    Bidding War for Deer Creek Energy Awakens Market


    By Gary Norris
    07 Sep 2005 at 01:39 AM EDT


    TORONTO (CP) -- Shares in Alberta oilsands developer Deer Creek Energy Ltd. steamed up almost 30% Tuesday as traders speculated that a 24% increase in a takeover bid from French energy giant Total isn't the final word.


    The move by Total E&P Canada Ltd. to raise its cash offer from C$25 per share to C$31 per share - a total of C$1.58 billion - came Friday after an unidentified rival topped its initial proposal.


    Total had the right to meet any other offer, but many investors were betting that this wasn't the end of the bidding in the high-pressure market for oilsands assets, and they pushed Deer Creek shares [TSX: DCE] as high as C$32.38 on Tuesday with 6.9 million of the company's 50 million shares changing hands.


    The stock - worth C$8 a year ago and C$18 just before Total presented its initial bid on Aug. 2 - never traded as low as C$31 during the session and ended the day at C$32.27, up C$7.35 or 29½% from its close Friday on the Toronto Stock Exchange before the sweetened bid was announced.


    Deer Creek said its board supports Total's revised offer, and it earlier said 32.3% of its shares have been committed under lock-up agreements with Total.


    The French company's bid, carrying a C$40-million break fee if Deer Creek accepts another offer, requires acceptance by holders of two-thirds of the stock.


    Deer Creek's only material asset is an 84% working interest in the Joslyn lease, estimated to contain two billion barrels of recoverable bitumen on 200 square kilometres north of Fort McMurray, between lands held by Syncrude and Canadian Natural Resources.


    The other 16% of the Joslyn project is owned by Enerplus Resources Fund [TSX:ERF.UN] through subsidiary EnerMark Inc.


    Deer Creek has a four-phase plan to use steam-assisted gravity drainage to produce more than 200,000 barrels per day for at least 30 years.


    The headlong development of multibillion-dollar projects in the oilsands has drawn increasing attention from major global energy companies.


    Total already owns half of the C$1.4-billion Surmont steam-assisted oilsands project being built by Houston-based ConocoPhillips.


    Meanwhile, another American company, Devon Energy, is building a similar steam-based project, and earlier this year two Chinese state-owned companies took stakes in small companies with oilsands leases.


    Deer Creek's demonstration project at Joslyn, using injected steam to melt the sticky oilsands which then flow along horizontal wells into an open pit to be extracted, has been producing 280 barrels per day.


    Construction is about one-third complete at a second-phase plant site, with C$29.3 invested during the April-June quarter.


    Work has begun on the first of four well pads, each to house three to five pairs of injector and producer wells. Steaming of the reservoir is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2006 with initial production by mid-year.


    Deer Creek, which held C$160 million in cash and short-term investments at June 30 after a C$40.8-million equity issue during the second quarter, reported a quarterly loss of C$498,000, leaving its accumulated deficit at C$15.9 million.

    Silver Standard reports significant increase in silver resources at Berenguela Project, Peru


    Source: Press Release

    Silver Standard Resources Inc. is pleased to report a significantly increased silver resource estimate for the Berenguela project located five kilometres west of Santa Lucia on the altiplano of southern Peru. The updated resource estimate follows the company's completion of 19,029 meters of reverse circulation drilling in 222 holes since 2004.


    The Berenguela project is now estimated to host indicated silver resources totalling 66.1 million ounces and inferred silver resources totalling 21.6 million ounces, based on a cut-off grade of 50 grams of silver per tonne.


    Prior to Silver Standard's drilling program, the Berenguela property had an historic inferred resource of 56.3 million ounces of silver.


    Silver Standard holds an option to acquire all of the property's silver resources. Under the terms of the option agreement, Silver Standard is required, among other things, to provide the vendors with a resource estimate in accordance with Canada's National Instrument 43-101, prior to the exercise of the option. With the delivery of the resource estimate to the vendors, Silver Standard has until November 3, 2005 to exercise its option. Based on current silver prices, silver resource acquisition costs at Berenguela would be US$0.06 per ounce.


    Following the exercise of the option for the silver resources at Berenguela, the company's projects will host measured silver resources totalling 101.9 million ounces; indicated silver resources totalling 477.1 million ounces; and inferred resources totalling 409.3 million ounces. In addition, the company has significant exposure to gold resources.


    In other developments, the company continues updating of feasibility work at its wholly-owned Pirquitas project in northern Argentina, including the commencement of a small-scale underground development program for the Oploca Vein; drilling at the wholly-owned Pitarrilla property in Durango, Mexico; and feasibility studies of the 50%-owned Manantial Espejo silver-gold property in southern Argentina. Pursuant to a property option agreement and TSX regulations, the company also reports the issuance of 3,170 common shares to the holder of a silver-copper property located in northern Argentina.


    Silver Standard Resources Inc. is a well-financed silver resource company with $29.7 million in cash, and 1.95 million ounces of physical silver, marketable securities and other investments valued at $21.9 million at August 31, 2005. The company continues to seek resource growth through development of its own projects, exploration and acquisitions.

    Improvements to Date


    Optimization work to date has included a complete review of mine equipment utilization, a review of personnel requirements, and the incorporation of vendor bids into capital cost estimates. In particular, a review by Snowden Engineering, of Vancouver, British Columbia, has realized a 10% improvement in the utilization of mine equipment, thereby reducing the fleet size and the requirements for equipment purchase and replacement over the entire mine life. The initial capital required for the mining fleet during construction has been reduced from $31 million to approximately $18 million, with sustaining equipment capital being spread out over the first four years. Improvements in equipment utilization have produced corresponding reductions in personnel requirements.


    Other capital cost improvements reflected in the above analysis include significant reductions in the costs of heap leach liner and drill material that were identified through direct vendor quotes.

    Nevada Pacific Cuts Gold in Trench at Cornerstone Project on Cortez Trend
    Wednesday September 7, 10:42 am ET


    VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - Sept. 7, 2005) - Nevada Pacific Gold Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:NPG - News) is pleased to announce the intersection of gold mineralization in Trench #1 on its Cornerstone Project, located in Eureka County, Nevada. The Cornerstone Project forms part of the Battle Mountain/Cortez Gold Trend and lies 12 miles southeast of the 10 million ounce Cortez Hills/Pediment deposit (Placer Dome 60% - Kennecott 40%), three miles east of the Company's 100% owned Keystone project and immediately adjacent to the 1.4 million ounce Tonkin Springs gold property owned by US Gold.


    ADVERTISEMENT
    Trench #1 (drill road and drill pad construction) is located 2,500 feet north of US Gold's Rooster deposit and 1,000 feet southwest of NPG's Flag zone. A total of 162 feet of newly exposed bedrock in the road cut has been systematically sampled on five-foot intervals and assayed. The entire 162 feet of exposed bedrock contained gold mineralization averaging 0.028 opt gold with the last 10 feet on the east side grading 0.32 opt gold, at which point the outcrop dives off under gravel cover. NPG presently plans to extend that trench further to the east to help trace the extent of the high grade mineralization. Drilling is presently testing this area of mineralization obtained in the trenching and the area up the hill which contained rock chip values in outcrop of 0.066 opt and 0.099 opt gold. The drill hole assays are pending and will be reported at a later date.


    A recent age date taken in carbonate rocks located to the west of the drilled and trenched area has demonstrated that previously mapped Ordovician age rocks are in fact early to middle Devonian in age, thus demonstrating the existence of more favorable lower plate host rock being exposed at surface.


    Mr. Curt Everson, P.Geol., M.Sc. is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and is responsible for program design and quality control of exploration undertaken by the Company in Nevada.


    Nevada Pacific Gold Ltd. was founded in March 1997. The Company owns the Magistral Gold Mine in Mexico and an exploration property portfolio covering approximately 75 square miles of mineral rights including portions of two significant gold producing belts in the State of Nevada. The Company's BMX, Keystone and Limousine Butte projects are under joint venture agreement to Placer Dome U.S.A description of these projects, including maps and photographs can be viewed on the Company's website at http://www.nevadapacificgold.com.
