WALL STREET

Stocks ended a turbulent second quarter with a moderate decline Friday as money managers, doing some last-minute adjustments, locked in gains from Thursday's big rally.

The Dow ended the quarter up 40.90 points, or 0.37 percent; the S&P lost 24.63 points, or 1.90 percent; and the Nasdaq lost 167.70 points or 7.17 percent.

Consumer spending slowed sharply in May as rising gasoline prices left Americans with less cash for other items, the government reported Friday.
The Commerce Department said that spending rose by just 0.4 percent last month after a 0.7 percent gain in April. Income growth also slowed to an advance of just 0.4 percent last month, reflecting weaker job growth.

SANTOS

Update Dua-4X exploration well, Vietnam

Santos today announced an oil and gas discovery at the Dua-4X exploration well currently being drilled in exploration Block 12E, offshore Vietnam.

Dua-4X was drilled down-flank from the 1974 Dua-1X discovery well that flowed 1,500 barrels of oil per day. Following the intersection of hydrocarbons in the Dua 4X vertical well, a sidetrack has been drilled (Dua-4X ST1) to provide further geological information.

Wireline testing of both Dua-4X and Dua-4X ST1 recovered oil samples, core and pressure data to help define the quantity and quality of hydrocarbons within the northern flank of the Dua structure. As planned no drill stem test was performed.

A second geological sidetrack, Dua-4X ST2, will now be drilled to evaluate potential gas and oil reservoirs in the southern fault block of the Dua structure........ - Web Site

SANTOS

Clarification re Banjar Panji 1 Well incident

Further to our release dated 27 June 2006, Santos wishes to provide the following clarification regarding the well control incident at the Banjar Panji-1 onshore exploration well located in the Brantas PSC near Surabaya on the Indonesian island of Java, in which a Santos company has a non-operated 18% interest.

Recent media articles include speculation as to the cause of the well control incident and seek to quantify the damage caused.

Santos wishes to clarify for the market that investigations into the cause of the incident by the Operator of the PSC, Lapindo Brantas Inc, and the Government of Indonesia's oil and gas regulator, BPMigas, are ongoing. At this time, there have been no final conclusions arising from these investigations.

In addition, as the mud and water flows continue, clean up operations are unable to commence in earnest. Accordingly, an accurate quantification of damage is not possible at this stage and any speculation is premature.

Further announcements will be made as information becomes available.

The PSC is operated by Lapindo Brantas, which holds a 50% interest; PT Medco E&P Brantas has a 32% interest and Santos (Brantas) Pty Ltd has an 18% interest. - Web Site

WALL STREET

The Federal Reserve raised interest rates to 5.25% - the highest point in more than five years - Thursday but also raised hopes that a respite from two years of rate pain may be in sight. Wall Street rallied, breathing a sigh of relief.
The Dow Jones industrial average soared 217.24 points to 11,190.80, its biggest single-day jump in more than three years.

Chairman Ben Bernanke and other Fed policymakers didn't rule out another bump in rates. But they seemed hopeful that a slowing economy would lessen pressure on prices, leaving open the question of whether more increases would be needed to declare victory in their battle against inflation.

GEODYNAMICS

Habanero 2 - Well Suspension

Geodynamics announces that the drill stem has been successfully parted near the bottom of the casing using a severing tool at a depth of 3,765m (12,350ft) or 436m (1,430ft) above the stuck drill bit. This is considerably higher than aimed for, a direct consequence of restriction in the drill stem which prevented the setting of the explosive charge at a greater depth.

On the basis of the slow and costly progress made to date and taking into account the remaining risks involved in completing the side track with the current on site equipment, it was reluctantly decided to stop the drilling operations. Geodynamics has further decided to restore the connection with the heat exchanger using a conventional drilling rig. Geodynamics has recently obtained an option on a suitable rig which will become available in the last quarter of this calendar year. One option open to the Company is to drill another side track from near the bottom of the casing in Habanero #2, starting drilling at a depth of approximately 3,750m (12,300ft). A similar side track (Habanero #2, side track 1) was previously drilled in 23 days. Once the new hole approaches the depth of the underground heat exchanger, specialised equipment (snub assist unit) will be used to avoid damaging the underground heat exchanger with drilling mud.

The decision to stop the current snub drilling operations is a major set-back for all stakeholders involved as it will delay the proof of economic heat extraction from the extensive geothermal resources underlying the Cooper Basin. However, it should only be regarded as a delay and not as a threat to the viability of the geothermal project. All drilling engineering experts consulted by the Company to date agree that the drilling problems encountered will be overcome and that experience has shown that drilling costs can be significantly reduced over time. - Web Site

MITHRIL

FURTHER WORK PLANNED AT SILVER SWAN NORTH JOINT VENTURE

The Silver Swan North Joint Venture is situated approximately 45 kilometres northnortheast of Kalgoorlie Western Australia and immediately adjacent to the Silver Swan nickel mine operated by LionOre Mining.

The Joint Venture between Mithril Resources, BHP Billiton and FerrAus consists of one Exploration Licence E27/209 and four Mining Leases M27/262-265 which form a contiguous group covering an area of approximately 39 square kilometres. The tenements cover a succession of Archaean felsic, mafic and ultramafic rocks. The ultramafic rocks are the host sequence for the Silver Swan and Black Swan nickel deposits.

In May this year five angled RC Percussion drillholes for 1293m were completed over the project area. Two of these holes (SNRC-001, 008) targeted east dipping conductive bodies identified from the recently completed ground electromagnetic (EM) surveys on ultramafic contacts and hole SNRC-003 targeted a conductive body internal to the ultramafic pile. Two drill holes (SNRC-004, 006) targeted contacts to the ultramafic sequence.

Drill hole SNRC-001 intersected 24m of semi-massive and massive sulphides from 252m at the bottom of the hole near the mafic / ultramafic contact. Due to the drill rig capability this hole stopped in these sulphides and the ultramafic contact was not intersected. Analytical results indicate these sulphides are sedimentary in origin with no Ni values greater than 100 parts per million (ppm). Drill hole SNRC-003 intersected a 2 pyritic shale internal to the ultramafic pile and drill hole SNRC-008 intersected a five metre thick zone from 255m of 10-40% sulphides adjacent to the eastern ultramafic contact. Nickel values are elevated in this interval (up to 1000ppm).

As part of the Joint Venture, BHP Billiton has agreed to fund further EM surveys in the project area. This includes downhole EM on SNRC-001, 004, 006 and 008 as well as fixed loop EM over moving loop EM anomalies detected and not drill tested in the last drilling campaign. In addition BHP Billiton will fund approximately 10 line km of moving loop EM over a magnetic anomaly directly north of the Silver Swan Deposit.

Mithril and BHP Billiton continue to view the area as highly prospective for nickel sulphides.

WHITE EAGLE, KANSAS – POLYMER TREATMENT UPDATE

The Directors of Amadeus Energy Limited wish to announce the results of the polymer treatments carried out to date on the White Eagle project, Kansas USA.

The treatments commenced on 22 April 2006 and to date, six wells have been treated. In all cases the results have been successful, resulting in increased oil and lower water production, which substantially reduces operating costs for the field.

Prior to commencement of the treatment of these wells, combined production was 16 barrels of oil per day (bopd) and 2,750 barrels of water per day (bwpd). Post treatment oil production increased to just below 200 bopd and water production reduced to 600 bwpd. Oil production has since stabilised to approximately 150 bopd.

It is planned to continue the polymer treatment programme and complete a total of 30 wells back-toback. Each well costs approximately $US70,000 (100%) to complete and the average pay-back for the six wells is 45 days.

Amadeus acquired the White Eagle project in October 2005 with a working interest (WI) of 85%. The field is spread across 113 petroleum leases containing 300 producing wells located across 16 counties, covering 18,240 acres.

The operator, TNT Engineering Inc plans to drill up to 30 development wells during the next 12 months across Amadeus’ current USA producing properties. (Average WI: 75% – 85%) - Web Site

MINCOR INTERSECTS NEW NICKEL ZONE ABOVE SOUTH MIITEL

Latest Drill Hole Also Expected to Expand Existing Resource for South Miitel Ore Body

Kambalda nickel producer Mincor Resources NL (MCR: ASX) has achieved further exploration success adjacent to its recent South Miitel nickel discovery, with the latest diamond drill hole intersecting both a new zone of massive sulphide mineralisation above the main South Miitel (N18) ore body and an unexpectedly wide intersection in the N18 ore body itself.

The upper intersection of 1.57 metres at 4.94% nickel highlights the potential for a new body of massive sulphide mineralisation up-dip and to the north of South Miitel, while the lower intersection of 6.92 metres @ 2.65% nickel is likely to increase the mineral resource at South Miitel, which currently stands at 258,000 tonnes @ 3.98% nickel (December 2005).

Mincor announced the South Miitel discovery, located immediately south of its flagship Miitel Nickel Mine, in September 2005, and the area has since been a key focus for its ongoing exploration and reserve development program at Kambalda.

The new drill hole, SMD006, was positioned to target the sparsely-drilled northern end of the South Miitel ore body, with the aim of building confidence in the current geological interpretation and enabling this section to be upgraded from the Inferred Resource category to the Indicated Resource category.

The drill hole intersected a previously-unknown zone of massive sulphide mineralisation above the South Miitel ore body:

BEACH PETROLEUM

NATIONAL OIL & GAS SEARCH BOOSTED BY NEW $100 MILLION BEACH PETROLEUM PROGRAM

The search for new Australian oil and gas reserves has been boosted by today's announcement of a significantly expanded $100 million-plus exploration and appraisal program to be undertaken by Beach Petroleum Limited in the upcoming financial year.

The new program will see the Top 10 petroleum producer drill 69 exploration and appraisal wells in 2006-2007 - up from 19 in the current year.

Beach said the heightened drilling program is designed to increase annual production to above 5 million barrels of oil equivalent (boe) in 2007-2008. This compares to an output of 1.4 million barrels of oil this year.

Drill targets include an offshore Australian oil prospect, the Company's first offshore target in New Zealand and a Surat Basin well in Queensland - as well as current operations in the onshore Cooper-Eromanga basins and the offshore Gippsland Basin.

WALL STREET

Stocks advanced Wednesday in light trading as Wall Street recovered from the previous session's selloff and awaited Thursday's expected interest rate hike from the Federal Reserve. The Fed is expected to announce at least a quarter-point rate hike, which would bring short-term interest rates to 5.25 percent, but a few economists expect a bolder half-point increase.
Volume has been declining over the last week and a half as traders waited for the Fed's next move.

Copper bounced 2.4 percent on thin buying on Wednesday, but investors were cautious ahead of a U.S. Federal Reserve meeting on interest rates, dealers said.

Gold prices fell for the third straight day in New York as the dollar climbed against the euro.

Project Update

Utopia Project (EL's 28/1412, 1294, 1295) Drilling Commences.
Comet is pleased to announce the commencement of a 5,000 metre RAB drilling program at its Utopia project in Western Australia.
Drilling will test several soil gold anomalies which are associated with historic wide space RAB drill gold anomalies and a radiometric anomaly.
Comet hopes to finish the 5,000 metre RAB drilling program in early July and expects results by mid August.

Environmental Oil Solutions Project
Progress has been made in the laboratory test work. The bacterial formulation (BIO-Paragone) has been optimised and scale up has commenced. This will involve simulated tank cleaning in 20 litre vessels, then 100 litre vessels before moving to a field location where waste oil will be treated in an 8,000 litre tank. The objective is to demonstrate BIO-Paragones ability to break down the viscous waste oils, enabling the transformed waste oil to be pumped from the vessel and recycled.

Browns Reef Base Metal Project (NSW)
This project has the potential to host a very large zinc, lead, copper, silver and possibly gold deposit. The areas main phase of exploration was in the 1970’s and early 1980s, where non JORC resources of 15-20million tonnes at 2.5% Zinc equivalent were calculated. Drilled widths up to 60m were intersected. Within the broad mineralised zone are higher grades eg. BR2 with 20m at 4.95% Zinc, 2.77% Lead, 0.16% Copper and 13.5 g/t silver from 302m down hole.
Shallower levels have not been tested. Comet is planning to commence a Reverse Circulation and diamond drilling programme in August to test selected zones within the delineated 10 kilometres of mineralised strike length for :-

Bulk tonnage mineralisation (+ 100mt)
Continuity of the previously identified higher grade zone
The potential in the near surface zones for supergene mineralisation.

Over the past 6 months Comet has made significant progress on its 100% owned projects and is now in a position to implement programmes to advance these projects- Web Site

WALL STREET

Wall Street slumped Tuesday as investors looked past another round of acquisitions and grew increasingly anxious about the Federal Reserve's upcoming decision on interest rates. The Dow Jones industrials tumbled more than 120 points.

Oil prices rose slightly on Tuesday as traders focused on shipping delays along the Gulf Coast and as Iran's supreme leader rejected the need for nuclear talks with the United States.

Copper for July delivery dropped 14.7 cents, or 4.6%, to $3.08 a pound. The decline followed a report by the International Copper Study Group that showed copper production topped consumption by 64,000 tons in the first quarter.

Oropa is pleased to announce results from the latest diamond drill hole SAMDD019, completed at its Sambung prospect, Pungkut Gold Project in Indonesia.

Drill hole SAMDD019 intersected two mineralised zones with values of:

26m @ 2.86g/t Au from 7m (including 11m @ 4.23g/t Au from 8m) and
19m @ 2.27g/t Au from 48m (including 3m @ 10.07g/t Au from 59m)

Elevated gold values were encountered down the entire hole, with ore-grade values returned from zones of massive jasperoid.

Results from drill hole SAMDD016 (18m @ 2.84g/t Au from 35m, (including 6m @ 4.88g/t Au from 38m), located approximately 70m grid north of SAMDD019, indicates a broad zone of relatively thick mineralisation is present in this area- Web Site

ROC to Buy Apaches China Assets

ROC has agreed to acquire a 24.5% operated interest in the Zhao Dong Block in the Bohai Bay, offshore China, for a cash consideration of US$260 million/A$354 million. The acquisition is via the purchase of 100% of the shares of Apache China Corporation LDC a wholly owned subsidiary of the US$20 billion/A$27 billion Apache Corporation, headquartered in Houston.

The Block is part of a prolific producing petroleum province which offers considerable upside potential. Gross production from the two producing fields in the Block is in the order of 30,000 barrels of oil per day (net ACC working interest: 7,300 BOPD) and gross proved and probable remaining reserves are approximately 61 MMBO (net ACC working interest: 15 MMBO). - Web Site

Copper Intersections at Thaduna

Sipa is pleased to announce results from a recent reconnaissance Rotary Air Blast and Aircore drilling programme at our 100% owned Thaduna Copper Project located about 100 km north of Meekatharra in the Murchison Region of Western Australia.

The highlight of the results were from two 60º angled holes drilled on the same section which returned the following intersections:

THR92 16 metres @ 3.1% Copper from 4 metres
THR93 16 metres @ 3.2% Copper from 24 metres

The holes were drilled near an old shaft reportedly about 20 metres deep that was probably dug in the 1940’s on an east west trending mineralised fault structure traceable through old prospecting pits and costeans in an area of very poor outcrop for about 750 metres. - Web Site

WALL STREET

A series of multi-billion dollar acquisitions gave Wall Street a modest advance Monday although many investors remained cautious ahead of the Federal Reserve's decision on interest rates later in the week.

Investors were cheered by news from mining company Phelps Dodge Corp. that it will pay $40 billion in cash and stock for rivals Inco Ltd. and Falconbridge Ltd., while steelmaker Arcelor SA agreed to a $33 billion bid from Mittal Steel Co.

The Commerce Department reported Monday that sales of new single-family homes increased by 4.6 percent last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.234 million units. Wall Street had been expecting a 4 percent drop in sales.

HIGH-GRADE MINERALISATION CONFIRMED AT GASCOYNE TUNGSTEN PROJECT

First Field Campaign Returns Spectacular Tungsten Results in Rock Chip Samples

Nickel producer Mincor Resources NL (MCR: ASX) today announced encouraging results from the first exploration program carried out under its recently announced Growth and Expansion Strategy. The Company reported that initial field work at its 100%-owned Gascoyne Tungsten Project in Western Australia had confirmed the presence of high grade tungsten mineralisation in outcropping skarn units.

Mincor said the assay results, including spectacular values up to 6.66% WO3 over 3 metres, provided strong confirmation of the tenor of scheelite mineralisation encountered by previous explorers in the late 1970’s.

Mincor confined its first field campaign to an initial assessment of the Nardoo Well prospect (EL09/1205), only one of numerous areas of interest within the larger Gascoyne Tungsten- Uranium Project.

At Nardoo Well, an intermittently mineralised vesuvianite skarn (an altered calcareous sediment) is present over a strike length of 2-3 kilometres. The skarn unit is part of the Paleoproterozoic Morrisey Metamorphic Suite. Mincor sampled three zones within the skarn unit: an upper Quartzite Skarn, the Main Skarn and a Northern Skarn, with a combined strike length of 650 metres.

Best results from channel rock-chip sampling included:

2 metres @ 5.34% WO3 (Quartzite Skarn)
4 metres @ 1.10% WO3 (Quartzite Skarn)
2 metres @ 2.07% WO3 (Northern Skarn)

WALL STREET

Wall Street finished the week with a listless session Friday as a decline in big ticket factory goods did little to assuage investors' economic worries and left the major indexes slightly lower. The market posted a modest loss for the week.

Durable goods orders dropped 0.3 percent in May after a sharp 4.7 percent drop the month before, according to the Commerce Department, the first back-to-back declines in two years. Economists expected orders to rise 0.4 percent. Corporate spending remained strong, however, giving investors hope that the economic slowdown may not be severe.

Yet with the Federal Reserve's Open Market Committee meeting Wednesday and Thursday -- and widely expected to hike interest rates yet again -- Wall Street's chronic anxiety about economic growth overshadowed trading, and likely will continue to do until the Fed's decision is announced Thursday afternoon.

Bonds continued their selloff from the previous session, with the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note rising to a four-year high of 5.23 percent from 5.20 percent late Thursday. The dollar was mixed against other major currencies.

Oil prices edged higher as traders remained concerned about rising international demand, tight refinery capacity and continued unrest in the Middle East.

Gold and metals reversed early losses and finished higher on Friday, overcoming a strong dollar and concerns about economic growth ahead of the Federal Reserve's rate-setting meeting next week.
Newfound optimism on Wall Street, rising crude oil prices and a bullish broker note on copper all helped metals erase their morning negative bias.

Many observers say the severe corrections experienced by metals and commodities over the past month reflect concerns that rising interest rates the world over will curb growth and subdue inflation, which include surging commodities prices.

Production Testing Update: Waraga-1 Oil Discovery, Uganda

Hardman confirms that the lowermost zone in the Waraga-1 well was successfully perforated at 09:00hrs on 22nd June 2006. The well flowed oil to surface and a stabilised rate has been established sufficient to derive composition, flow characteristics and key reservoir parameters. Initial results show a flow rate of c.1,500 bopd of 33.8 degree API oil through a 36/64" choke. The well is now shut in for pressure build up prior to further flow testing later today.

This lower zone will continue to be tested over the next 48 hours. Subsequently, further flow tests will then be conducted on the two other identified hydrocarbon bearing horizons in this well. Testing on all three zones at Waraga-1 is estimated to take approximately 14 days.

Following testing at this well location, the future programme at Mputa will be determined. The next testing programme update is scheduled for Tuesday, 27th June.

Simon Potter, Hardman Managing Director and CEO, commented:

"The Hardman-operated exploration programme in Uganda has delivered three discoveries in the first three wells and now the first oil flow not only for Uganda but also in East Africa, south of the Sudan. The hydrocarbons flowing to surface from the first of three potentially productive zones in a single well give further grounds to establish the commercial potential of the region. We also note that these zones are represented in the other wells, which is indicative of the areal extent of these sands and play systems. However, it is important to bear in mind that Hardman’s exploration programme in Uganda is at an early stage. Over the next 18 months we look forward to more fully appraising the potential of this licence, including the highly prospective area under Lake Albert, where geological analysis suggests there is significant further upside potential."- Web Site

BLACK CAT GOLD PROJECT - 81 RC holes for 3270 Metres - Resource Definition Drilling COMMENCED 20 June 2006

At the Black Cat project, 35 kilometres north-west of Coolgardie, the Company has outlined a global resource of 290,000 tonnes at 2.7 g/t gold in two resources. An optimisation study undertaken in December 2005 indicated an encouraging return using an A$550 gold price from the open pit mining of the upper portions of these resources. In light of the current gold price the project is to be reassessed with definition drilling of 81 RC holes ahead of a more detailed optimisation study.

EXPLORATION AT SPARGOVILLE
Geochemical Auger Sampling
Auger sampling has been used previously in the Spargoville area as it demonstrates a greater contrast between background and anomalous values than that of conventional soil sampling. The auger sampling is expected to define anomalous areas requiring future RAB drilling and/or detailed rock chip sampling.

Lefroy Tantalum - 320 samples - COMPLETE (RESULTS PENDING) Anomalous and enhanced tantalum and niobium values along a strike length of 1600m were returned from auger sampling undertaken in 2004.
Hilditch North Nickel - 130 samples - COMPLETE (RESULTS PENDING) Detailed auger sampling was recently completed along the ultramafic horizon that hosts the nickel mineralisation. It is anticipated that additional nickel sulphide targets will be identified from the results of this survey.
Ground Lark Gold - 1190 samples - IN PROGRESS
Targeting trend of gold occurrences distributed along interpreted east-west structures (thrusts) related to the northern quadrant of the Widgiemooltha Dome. As all the previous soil sampling has been on east-west oriented lines, an auger sampling program is being carried out on north-south lines.
Groper North Gold. - 200 samples - Commence July 2006 Infill auger sampling to better define the gold in soil anomalies.
West Larkinville Gold - 750 samples - Commence July 2006 Infill auger sampling to better define several gold in soil anomalies.
Guest Leases Gold - 520 samples - Commence July 2006 Targeting a trend of gold occurrences along a north-west alignment over several kilometres.
Hidden Valley Gold - 40 samples - Commence July 2006 Two lines of auger sampling across a target selected by structural reasoning and where the existing soil sampling is wide spaced and may not be a good indicator of the abundance of gold in the bedrock.
Hidden Valley West Gold - 40 samples - Commence July 2006 Five lines of auger sampling to follow up an isolated 3.4g/t and adjacent 50ppb gold in soil values.

WALL STREET

Wall Street posted a moderate decline Thursday, giving back part of the prior session's gains as investors once again fretted about interest rates and the economy.
A slight rise in weekly unemployment claims met expectations of a weakening job market, but a greater-than-forecast drop in the Conference Board's index of leading indicators stoked concerns about a dropoff in economic growth. Meanwhile, higher oil prices and rising bond yields also weighed on Wall Street's mood.

Crude futures gained after the government reported only a small increase in gasoline stocks as the peak summer driving season gets under way.

Copper annd nickel prices continued higher for a second day on concerns about falling inventory levels.

Gold futures closed lower Thursday, as the dollar staged a broad rally against major currencies, touching a two-month high against the yen.

TORO ENERGY

NEW S.A. PALAEOCHANNEL DISCOVERY IN TORO’S MAIDEN URANIUM DRILLING

A new palaeochannel containing anomalous uranium values has been identified in South Australia’s far west by Toro Energy Limited.

Named the Kattata Palaeochannel, it was discovered in Toro’s recently completed initial drilling campaign on its Yaninee Project area tenements covering 2733 square kilometres, 50 kilometres east of Streaky Bay (Refer Figure 1).

The drilling program identified anomalous uranium values over a 500 metre width across the channel (Traverse 5), with mineralisation remaining open to the east. Gamma logging returned peak responses of between 200 and 500 counts per second (cps). One metre air core samples for assay compilation confirmed uranium presence, with results ranging from 10ppm to 66ppm U (or 12ppm to 78ppm U3O8 equivalent) across a 5 to 10 metre mineralisation zone thickness.

Anomalous uranium values ranging to 19ppm U (22ppm U3O8) were also confirmed in two traverses in the nearby known Yaninee palaeochannel, which contains some historic uranium values...... - Web Site

Tunkillia Project – Diamond Drilling Results - Summary

Minotaur Exploration has completed a program of detailed diamond drill coring at the Tunkillia gold deposit. The program was designed to:

Confirm the assays of RC drilling undertaken previously by Helix Resources
Elucidate the nature of the gold mineralisation
Gain structural information to assist modelling of the deposit geology and definition of new target areas; and
Test for possible extensions of mineralisation between the two main gold zones at Area 223. - Web Site

STELLAR RESOURCES

Drilling resumes at Alpine Copper

Stellar Resources is pleased to report that work has resumed at the Alpine Copper prospect which is favourably located on the highly mineralised west coast of Tasmania. Drilling, in a planned program of 3 diamond drill holes for 600 metres, has commenced.

A significant intersection of copper of 22.25m @ 1.23% Cu was previously reported from diamond drilling hole, AP4, in April 2006. Hole AP3 intersected several zones of anomalous copper and zinc, whilst hole AP5 did not reach its target.

The possible strike extensions to the copper mineralisation will be tested by AP6 and AP8, which will be drilled some 120 to 150 metres to the east and west of AP4 respectively. Depth extension will be tested by AP7, which will be drilled some 130 metres to the south of AP4. Drilling of these holes is scheduled to be complete by mid July, with assay results becoming available during August.

Hole AP4 finished in strong mineralisation (with the last sample of 1.2 metres assaying 0.39% Cu). The consulting geologist reported some 90 plus metres of continuously mineralised drill core - in both massive and disseminated sulphides - indicating potential for a substantial mineralised system. This potential has subsequently been reinforced by the petrological test work on drill core samples, which shows that the mineralisation is essentially a hydrothermally introduced mixture of quartz-siderite-magnetite-pyrite-chalcopyrite. The copper mineralisation is dominated by chalcopyrite with minor to trace chalcocite and covellite.

Geophysical modelling of the aeromagnetic anomalies indicate a strike length of approximately 500 metres for the main magnetite bearing zone at Alpine. At Alpine North a slightly greater strike length, but narrower width, is indicated. Additional diamond drill holes are being planned to test Alpine North once the current program is complete.

Drilling Confirms High Grade Tungsten at White Rock NSW

Highlights

A seven hole drill programme at the White Rock tungsten prospect in New South Wales has verified 50 year old high grade tungsten results. Best results from the recent programme include:
9 metres @ 1.01% tungsten trioxide (WO3) from 24m in hole RPF
4 metres @ 1.01% WO3 from 16m in hole RPC
5 metres @ 0.91% WO3 from 27m in hole RPE
2 metres @ 1.10% WO3 from 1m in hole RPB.
Results confirm that there is a coherent, shallow, flat-lying, high grade zone of tungsten mineralisation at White Rock with excellent potential for expansion and for further similar discoveries in the area.
The shallow, high grade, modest-sized nature of the deposit indicates that it may have opportunities for early development.
Next stage will be further drilling, metallurgical testing and targeting other magnetic anomalies that may be associated with tungsten.- Web Site

NEW TENEMENTS CONTAINING HIGH GRADE GOLD-COPPER MINERALISATION PEGGED NEAR TELFER

Glengarry Resources Limited has applied for a 1,700 square kilometre area located 100 kilometres north of the Telfer gold mine in northwest Western Australia (Figure 1). The region contains several world class metal deposits including Telfer (26 M oz gold, 1 Mt copper), Nifty (1 Mt copper) and Kintyre (24 Kt tonnes U3O8). Exploration by other companies confirms that Glengarry’s new tenements, which will be known as the Citadel Project, are highly prospective for these commodities.

Drilling by previous explorers at the Magnum prospect (Figure 2) located within the Citadel Project has recorded a number of significant intersections including:

8 metres @ 3.5 g/t gold and 4.4% copper from 279 metres
4 metres @ 11.7 g/t gold from 261 metres
15 metres @ 14.1 g/t gold from 464 metres
5 metres @ 1.23 g/t gold and 2.43% copper from 211 metres

LION SELECTION GROUP

Sale of IAMGOLD Shares Realises Profit of $38.5 million

Lion Selection Group Limited (Lion) acquired 4.9 million shares in IAMGOLD Corporation (IAMG) in March 2006 as a result of a Scheme of Arrangement (Scheme) under which IAMG acquired all shares in Gallery Gold Limited (Gallery).

Lion held 108.3 million shares in Gallery ($21.7 million investment). Lion has now sold all of its IAMG shares at a price equivalent to 56¢ per Gallery share. As a result Lion has realised a profit of $38.5 million pre-tax and $32.7 million post-tax.

At the time the IAMG/Gallery Scheme was announced in December 2005, the equivalent Gallery price under the terms of the Scheme was 46¢.

Directors will consider a dividend to be paid from this profit in light of the company’s investment requirements and other relevant issues, later in 2006.

QUEENSLAND GAS

ALES UP 15% AS QGC BEGINS DELIVERY UNDER BRAEMAR SALE CONTRACT THREE MONTHS EARLY

The direct pipeline connection from the Berwyndale South Gasfield to the Braemar Power Station has been completed, and the commencement of commissioning yesterday allowed QGC to begin gas sales to the Braemar Power Station - more than three months ahead of schedule.

Under the Braemar contract, QGC (90%) and its joint venturer Sentinent (10%) have committed to long term gas sales of 2 petajoules (PJ) per annum from 1 October 2006 and a further 2 PJ per annum from 1 December 2006.

From next week, it is anticipated that QGC will be selling gas to CS Energy at a rate of 11.0 terajoules (TJ) per day (the full contract volume) – 4 PJ pa and close to 6.5 TJ/day going to Braemar. At this rate the gas delivery to Braemar will be nearly 20% above the rate required on the commencement of the contract by 1 October 2006 or 60% of the contract volumes required by December 2006. - Web Site

WALL STREET

Stocks rose Wednesday as stronger-than-expected earnings from FedEx Corp. and Morgan Stanley Inc. put investors' inflation fears on the back burner. The Dow Jones industrial average gained more than 100 points.

Crude oil futures were higher after the U.S. Department of Energy reported that gasoline inventories grew at a slow pace last week, despite high production levels.

A late-day short covering rally gave Comex copper a boost at the close on Wednesday at the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Gold futures closed higher Wednesday, finishing a few dollars short of the psychological barrier of $600 an ounce, as the dollar fell and Iran signaled it's in no hurry to respond to a Western effort to dissuade it from enriching uranium.

NEW GUINEA GOLD / MACMIN SILVER

CHECK ASSAYS AT IMWAUNA INCREASE GOLD ASSAYS BY 92%

Vancouver, B.C. June 21, 2006 Twenty-two samples above 10 g/t gold from drill holes IMH059 to IMH 073 were re-assayed (check assays) by Screen Fire Assays at accredited laboratory, ALS Chemex in Townsville, Australia (see also Press Release dated June 8, 2006). Results from 20 of the samples show that 50 gram fire assays understate the gold content of the samples by an average of 92%. Two samples, of which are above 100 g/t gold, are being further re-checked and are not included in the above average.

Complete results with comparisons between the assay techniques will be released next week when the final two results are received.

These results are significant as they suggest that all previous assays above 10 g/t in drill-hole may be understating the gold content and the Company will now re-assay all such assays from previously reported drill holes.

Independent Geologist, Ralph Stagg of Project Geoscience, is now scheduled to visit the Imwauna prospect within the Normanby property in mid-July to provide an independent review of the drill program, sampling and assaying.

ACQUISITION OF AN EQUITY STAKE IN VILLAGE MAIN REEF GOLD MINING COMPANY

Johannesburg, 21 June 2006. Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (NASDAQ, NYSE: HMY; JSE: HAR) today announced that it has acquired 37.8% of the issued share capital of Village Main Reef Gold Mining Company Limited ("Village") for an amount of R458,775. The equity stake was purchased from African Rainbow Minerals Limited at a price of 20 cents per share. Due to the fact that the acquisition surpasses the 35% mark, Harmony is obliged under the Securities Regulation Code on Takeovers and Mergers to extend an offer to the remaining shareholders of Village to acquire all of their shares at the same price at which it acquired the 37.8% stake. Should all remaining shareholders accept the offer, it would mean an additional cash outflow of approximately R754,915. More details regarding the mandatory offer will be published as soon as possible. - Web Site

WALL STREET

Wall Street pared an earlier advance to end mixed Tuesday as investors' persistent concerns about interest rates and the economy countered relief over an upbeat homebuilding report. A stronger-than-expected jump in new home construction fed optimism that the overall economy remains sturdy in the face of higher lending rates and gasoline prices. However, disappointing forecasts for June business sent homebuilders' shares sliding.

In London overnight, copper drifted downward, with traders there blaming this largely on technical weakness, one market watcher said.
Another cited concerns about possible slower growth in the U.S. and China.

Gold climbed on Tuesday in late U.S. trading, bolstered by concerns over a missile test by North Korea as well as a turnaround in the euro against the dollar.

MAGNESIUM INTERNATIONAL

SOKHNA MAGNESIUM PROJECT UPDATE HIGHLIGHTS

The project team was relocated to Egypt in January 2006 and has now competed initial work to prepare the first phase of a revised capital cost estimate. The estimated cost of construction (including owner's capital) has been reduced to US$290 million, in line with the original July 2005 Feasibility Study. The local Egyptian content has increased to 40%;
Further work is now planned to adopt self-perform project delivery techniques used widely in India and other low cost countries which have delivered projects at 30 - 40% below Western benchmarks for construction costs. This approach should further reduce the capital cost estimate by increasing the Egyptian/Indian content of fabricated equipment and through better contract pricing by improved engineering definition before obtaining fixed price packages;
Plant capacity has been increased from 88,000 tonnes per annum to 100,000 tonnes per annum magnesium metal which results in output of 108,000 tonnes per annum magnesium alloys, with limited additional capital cost. The increase follows a thorough review of the capacity and includes a 10% increase in the number of electrolytic cells. The plant will be constructed in two equal phases;
Following shareholder approval on 17 May 2006, EMAG has become a 100% owned subsidiary of MIL. Final settlement of the change of ownership is currently in process;
Arrangements have been finalised with Egypt Electricity Transmission Company for the supply of power for 15 years;
Work on defining the Sul Hamed magnesite deposit has indicated that the deposit should have the potential, with further exploration and testwork, in grade and quality for the first phase of the smelter which requires around 200,000 tonnes per annum of +40% MgO. The commercial supply arrangements are currently being negotiated.- Web Site

Exploration Update - Alto Cuilo

Petra Diamonds Limited, the AIM-quoted and ASX-listed diamond mining group, announces an important update with regards to the Alto Cuilo project in north-eastern Angola.

Highlights

Laboratory analysis of drill core has revealed a favourable mantle geotherm conducive for diamond formation in conjunction with some highly encouraging diamond stability field mineral grain counts and compositions, consistent with some of the world's economic kimberlite deposits
Kimberlites have been ranked in preparation for the large diameter drilling and bulk sampling campaign
Diamond drilling in the north-west of Alto Cuilo makes further progress, with the discovery to date of 39 kimberlitic occurrences (25 April 2006: 38) out of 46 targets drilled, an exceptional success rate of 85%
The third drill rig that arrived on site in April 2006 has been deployed to the north-east of the Project area, and will assist in the drilling of the 88 anomalies still to be investigated during this first core drilling phase of the Project
507 alluvial pits (25 April 2006: 412) and 7 alluvial bulk sample trenches have been excavated, placing the Project in a position to commence with a trial alluvial mining test in the next few months
Budget of circa US$20 million for the year to June 2007, to be funded by BHP Billiton, has been approved - this would take the total invested by BHP Billiton at June 2007 to around US$45 million - Web Site

WALL STREET

Wall Street pulled back Monday as a lack of economic news left investors hesitant to buy stocks ahead of the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision next week.

Falling commodity prices and some strength in the U.S. dollar eased the inflation picture, but weakness in oil and metal-related stocks pulled the market lower.

Crude futures eased despite persistent worries about a potential supply cutoff amid rising tension over Iran's nuclear arms program.

Gold futures closed lower Monday as the dollar soared against other major currencies - hitting an eight-week high against the Japanese yen - on continued expectations that U.S.interest rates are headed higher.

Under the agreement Beach has the option to earn a 50% interest in the tenement by contributing to the cost of the drilling of a gas exploration well within the Champagne Creek Field and by reimbursing Sunshine for a portion of previous exploration costs incurred in ATP 768P.

The well, with an estimated total depth of 2700 metres, will be designed to assess the gas potential of conventional sandstone reservoirs below the gas reservoirs discovered by previous wells in the field. Beach considers the 'deep' target has the potential to contain 30 to 60 BCF of recoverable gas.

ATP 768P covers an area of 4,189 square kilometres and is located approximately 20 kilometres north of the township of Taroom.

Sunshine Gas Ltd, through its wholly owned subsidiary BNG (Surat) Pty Ltd, remains the operator of ATP 768P and expects to commence drilling operations in the 3rd quarter, 2006. - Web Site

FELIX RESOURCES

MOOLARBEN RESOURCES UPGRADE

Felix Resources has announced today a significant upgrade in the resource base of its soon to be developed Moolarben Coal Project in New South Wales.

Further extensive drilling over the past twelve months has increased the open cut measured and indicated resources to 309 million tonnes at an average overburden to coal ratio of 2.7 to one. Of the 309 million tonnes, 169 million tonnes are measured with the balance indicated. The underground resources remain the same at 198 million tonnes of measured, inferred and indicted. Drilling is continuing in the underground areas.

Detailed mine planning for a 10mtpa, 25 year life of mine is nearing completion which, when finalised, will see much of the above resources converted to reserves.

Marketing of this coal to several key potential customers has commenced, with strong interest shown from some of Felix's existing customers who have increased requirements from 2008 onwards. A final feasibility study will be completed over the next 3 months with construction of the open cut envisaged to commence early in calendar 2007, with first exports in the second half of 2008. - Web Site

GOLDSTREAM MINING

Luwumbu PGE Discovery Zone Confirmed

The Board of Goldstream is pleased to announce that the first drill hole of the 2006 field season, NDH018, at the Nkenja East area of the Luwumbu Project has intersected a broad zone of Platinum Group Element (PGE) mineralisation approximately 50m up-dip from the high grade intersection from hole NDH014 reported on 11 January 2006.

Goldstream Mining NL, in joint venture with Lonmin plc, is exploring for Platinum Group Element (PGE) mineralisation at Luwumbu in southern Tanzania, East Africa. The Luwumbu Joint Venture enables Lonmin to earn a 70% interest from both Goldstream (90%) & Albidon (10%) by funding all exploration to the completion of a feasibility study.

The earlier hole, NDH014, intersected 16.14m at 5.36g/t Pt+Pd+Au (2PGE+Au) from a down hole depth of 258.63m. This compares with the new mineralised intersection in hole NDH018 of 22.3m from 199.7m. The lower 17.1m of the samples sent for priority assay averaged 2.34g/t 2PGE+Au. The last sample in the batch assayed 13.9g/t 2PGE+Au over 50cm. A further 1.2m below this sample of visually similar disseminated chromite and sulphide mineralisation remains to be assayed. - Web Site

COMPANY CHANGES

Impress wishes to announce the unfortunate departure as from Friday 16 June 2006 of Mr Rob Hall (the Company's present CEO). Rob is leaving the Company for personal reasons and will remain available in the short term to assist in the finalisation of a number of ongoing Company projects.

Although Rob has only been with Impress for a short period (February 2006) he has contributed significantly in consolidating the company assets into the now material 40% interest level and has instituted essential procedures and planning within the organisation. These procedures have help lay the future foundations for Impress to grow and develop.

I mpress's Chairman Eddie Smith advised "I am delighted to announce the appointment of Mr Eddy Buckovic who will replace Rob as CEO. Eddy will be joining the company in August 2006 and has significant industry experience and has been a key figure working on significant projects at BP, Woodside and most recently BHP Billiton. Eddy has been involved in all facets of the oil and gas industry including exploration, well analysis, prospect definition, joint venture partner negotiations, development and gas marketing.

KAGARA ZINC

MT GARNET DEPOSIT DRILLING UPGRADE

Recent drilling at Kagara's 100% owned Mt Garnet deposit has further defined a coherent zone of very high grade zinc sulphide mineralisation lying approximately 150 metres below the surface.

Hole GTD84 intersected a 27.2 metre zone assaying 24.0% zinc and 0.4% copper from 147.25 metres to 174.45 metres down hole. True width of this intersection is approximately 70% of drilled width.

The intersection is the best intersection drilled within the largely undeveloped Mt Garnet deposit and enhances the potential for early underground development.

The GTD84 intersection is down plunge and to the north of GTD21, which encountered 33 metres at 18.0% zinc and 30 metres up plunge of GTD07 which returned 8.2 metres at 30.8% zinc. No assays are currently available for a second hole GTD83, drilled further down plunge, but visual estimates confirm a 25 metre intersection within which there was a 9 metre zone of high grade zinc sulphide.

The Mt Garnet deposit has not been drilled beyond a depth of approximately 250 metres below the surface and this latest drilling has highlighted the potential for further repeats of high grade mineralisation further down plunge.

No mining has been carried out at the Mt Garnet deposit since 2003, when a 210,000 tonne parcel of open pit ore was processed as a trial mining exercise. Treatment of this parcel demonstrated a 35% overcall in contained zinc when compared to the reserve and a production cost of US$0.32 per pound. - Web Site

NICKEL SULPHIDES INTERSECTED AT CARNILYA HILL- First Drill Holes Demonstrate Mineralised System Remains Open to West

Kambalda nickel producer Mincor Resources NL (MCR: ASX) has confirmed the potential for a new nickel discovery adjacent to the old Carnilya Hill Nickel Mine, part of its Carnilya Hill Joint Venture, after its first round of drilling returned significant nickel sulphide intersections.

Mincor said today (Monday) that the results provided strong validation for its exploration concept, based on historical data and mine records, that the mineralised channel at Carnilya remains open to the west of the original ore body. Two significant intersections of nickel sulphide mineralisation were returned from a major stepout position some 270 metres down-plunge and to the west of the existing mine workings.

Two diamond drill holes and one wedge were completed targeting this position, with results including:

CMD002: 0.24 metres @ 10.1% nickel from 598.25 metres to 598.49 metres, (including 0.16 metres grading at 13.0% nickel)
CMD002W1: 4.95 metres @ 1.94% nickel from 590.91 metres to 595.86 metres, (including 1.03 metres @ 5.44% nickel from 591.02 metres depth)

Core angles indicate that both intersections are close to true width.... - Web Site

POSITIVE DRILLING INTERSECTIONS AT CARNILYA HILL (NICKEL) JOINT VENTURE

View Resources Ltd's JV partner at Carnilya Hill yesterday announced significant intersections of nickel sulphide mineralisation from a major step-out position some 270 meters down-plunge and to the west of the existing mine workings. Currently Mincor Resources NL ("Mincor") is farming into a 70% JV agreement with View Resources ("View") by spending $2.5 million at Carnilya Hill over three years.

"These results confirm our own positive outlook on Carnilya Hill" said View Managing Director Tim Gooch, "and we are fortunate to have a quality partner with the experience of Mincor assisting us in the development of this asset. View has always maintained that there is significant potential for extension to the ore body along strike and at depth and these initial Mincor results are very encouraging."

Gooch went on to add, "With nickel prices currently enjoying historic high levels beyond $25,000 per tonne, View is considering the option of mining the remaining nickel at its nearby Zone 29 East Extension. Whilst gold and Bronzewing remains our primary focus it is difficult to ignore the commercial rationale for taking short term cash flow out of this resource." Zone 29 East Extension is 100% owned by View and can be exploited by View up until Mincor complete their obligations under the farm-in and earn the full 70% of all Carnilya Hill assets. Zone 29 East Extension has a previously announced indicated and inferred resource of 41,600 tonnes at 3.40% for 1,414 tonnes Ni.- Web Site

TAP OIL

Amulet-3 Sidetrack Successful in Finding more Oil Up-Dip

Amulet-1

The Amulet-3 sidetrack commenced drilling from the same surface location as Amulet-1 and 2 on 16 June 2006. The well has since reached its planned total depth being approximately 700 metres laterally south east of Amulet-1.

It is interpreted from log information that the Amulet-3 sidetrack well has intersected a 15 metre gross oil column in a sandy section up dip from the oil bearing sand intersected in Amulet-2. The interpreted oil water contact in Amulet-3 is consistent with the implied oil water contact from Amulet-2 suggesting that the oil bearing intervals in both wells are likely connected. The reservoir appears to be interbedded with shales with a lower net to gross in the younger section.

Tap Comment

This sidetrack well was designed to establish if the oil bearing sands intersected in Amulet-2 extend up-dip and to the east. The interpreted log data confirms this.

Due to rig slot constraints, no further evaluation will be conducted from this well and it will be plugged and abandoned as planned.

All three wells drilled from this location have encountered oil columns under the regional sealing shale sequence. Seismic data indicates the possibility for additional traps further up-dip and to the east and consequently additional drilling will likely be conducted in due course to establish the full potential of this oil prone area. The rig will now be released.- Web Site

WALL STREET

Stocks fell slightly Friday at the end of a week of zigzag trading that saw a steep selloff followed by a dramatic rebound. The major indexes finished the week mixed, with large caps seeing gains and small caps slipping.

The day's economic data was robust. The deficit in the broadest measure of foreign trade showed an unexpectedly large improvement during the first three months of this year, but soaring global oil prices are expected to limit such gains.

Copper prices rose further on Friday, extending a rally for a third straight day as investors returned to the market after steep price declines in recent weeks on concerns about slowing global economic growth and inflation.

In other commodities, oil prices climbed back above $70 a barrel, while gold jumped more than 2 percent above $580/oz on a weaker dollar - and rising oil prices.

Further Positive Drilling Results From West Kalkaroo

Our latest drilling at West Kalkaroo has confirmed the usual Kalkaroo mineralisation as well as establishing that another ore system, a GOLD-BEARING, BRECCIA VEIN SYSTEM occurs close by.

Based on these new results and those previously reported for KKRC097, two types of mineralisation appear to be present at West Kalkaroo. The first is the stratabound, Kalkaroo style that has generally higher copper grades (eg drillhole KKRC103). The second type occurs within a breccia vein zone that is up to 100 metres wide. It is characterized by higher gold grades such as 39 metres of 1.45 g/t in drillhole KKRC099 and 60 metres of 1.0 g/t in drillhole KKRC101. Some drillholes appear to have a mixture of both styles of mineralisation (eg KKRC097 and 102)....... - Web Site

Wall Street rallied for a second session Thursday as mild economic data helped stocks regain their footing after several weeks of hefty losses. The Dow Jones industrials surged almost 200 points to surpass the closely watched 11,000 level.

The market turned sharply higher Thursday afternoon after Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke said record energy and commodity prices could account for some of the recent uptick in core prices but that inflation expectations have remained within historical ranges.

Mount Finnerty Iron Ore Drilling Results

Reed Resources Ltd (ASX:RDR) announces the successful completion of an initial drilling program by joint venture partner Portman Iron Ore Ltd (Portman) at the company's Mount Finnerty project. Portman have the right to earn 80% of the iron rights in the project.

Initial surface exploration by Portman earlier this year identified several areas of surface iron enrichment with assays in excess of 60 % Fe spread over a distance of 35 kilometres along the strike of the greenstone belt.

Nine prospects, identified as FIN1 to FIN9 were selected for a reconnaissance drilling campaign to test the depth extent of surface iron enrichment. RC drilling was completed at seven of the prospects, with drilling deferred at the FIN3 and FIN7 prospects.

Portman completed 28 RC drill holes for a total of 1,497 metres targeting direct shipping grade iron ore.
The best drill results were obtained from the FIN9 prospect where all four drill holes returned significant intercepts of iron enrichment (>58 % Fe). - Web Site

WALL STREET

Stocks rebounded Wednesday, with the Dow Jones industrial average climbing more than 110 points. The jump pulled Wall Street out of a two-week decline that had wiped out the year's gains in every major index.
Stocks gained momentum in late afternoon trading after a largely lackluster session marked by mixed reactions to the Commerce Department's Consumer Price index inflation data. Consumer-level inflation grew in May at an annual rate of 2.4 percent, making another Federal Reserve rate hike a near certainty and putting an end to traders' fretting about the possibility.

According to the Department of Energy, US reserves of petrol rose in the past week but crude oil stocks fell.

Copper rose for the first day in five in London, leading other metals such as aluminum and zinc higher on speculation an earlier decline was exaggerated.

China, the largest consumer of metals including copper and aluminum, said today its industrial production rose 17.9 percent in May, the biggest gain in two years.

Gold futures closed lower Wednesday - failing to hold earlier gains despite weakness in the U.S. dollar, to tally a seven-session loss of more than $82 an ounce.

AMULET OIL FIELD DISCOVERY

Amulet-1

The Amulet-1 exploration well was spudded on 24 May 2006 and drilled to its total depth.

A 26 metre oil column on a water contact was discovered in this well. Oil samples were recovered and indicate a light oil similar to that produced at the nearby Talisman oil field by Marathon in the early 1990's.

A preliminary interpretation of the reservoir indicates that it has the potential to flow oil at rates of up to 10,000 bopd using a horizontal well. A full core analysis will however be required to confirm this.

Amulet-1 CH (core hole)

The pre drill planning of this well included the alternative to core the well as opposed to flow testing it. This is because core data, when combined with pressure testing and sample recovery is considered to be one of the most effective methods of evaluating reservoir potential and flow characteristics for a development decision.

Consequently, on 7 June 2006 Amulet-1 CH was drilled and a full 34 meter core section was recovered. Oil was dripping from this core when it was laid out on the rig floor.

Amulet-2 sidetrack

The Amulet-2 sidetrack well was drilled on 9 June 2006 to test the extent of the Amulet structure to the south east and investigate the possibility of additional oil reservoirs towards the basin bounding fault.

This well confirmed both the south eastern extent of the lower oil pool and intersected another oil pool in a structurally higher sand. This sand contained a 6 metre oil column without a water contact and better reservoir quality than the lower sand.

The size of the lower oil pool is estimated to be around 24 mmbls of oil in place. Recoverable volumes of up to 10 to 15 mmbls are estimated at this stage however this will need to be confirmed in due course when the core data mentioned above has been thoroughly analysed and development scenarios determined.

Encountering oil in the second sand was an excellent result and it is seismically mapped to thicken up-dip to the east. Moreover there is potential for yet more oil bearing sands east and up-dip towards the fault. Establishing the eastern extent of the known upper oil pool and the existence of additional sands will require another well and the Joint Venture is in discussions on an additional rig slot at this stage. - Web Site

WALL STREET

Wall Street resumed its retreat with another session of steep losses Tuesday as declines in oil and gold prices did little to calm anxiety over inflation. The selloff erased the Dow Jones industrial average's gains so far in 2006. Investors struggled to make sense of the Labor Department's May producer price index, which showed a mild uptick in wholesale prices but a stronger-than-forecast rise in inflation without food or energy costs. The data suggested that energy costs did not grow as much as expected, but the higher core prices nonetheless kept the market on edge.

Wall Street's pullback trailed sharp losses on stock markets worldwide, which were driven by worries that a weakening U.S. economy will overturn other economies in its wake. The continued inversion of short- and long-term bond yields was also evidence of the market's expectations of an economic slowdown.

Crude futures fell as Tropical Storm Alberto posed less of a threat to U.S. refineries in the Gulf of Mexico.

Gold and other metals suffered their biggest meltdown since the early 1990s Tuesday, as concerns over the impact of rising interest rates on global growth continued to rock speculative markets. The selloff was even more pronounced for silver, with the July contract losing $1.44, or 13%, to $9.62 an ounce. Copper for July delivery dropped 21 cents, or 6.8%, to $3.01 a pound. Both routs were the worst percentage declines in more than a decade.

The Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company has formally advised that it has agreed to enter into the power supply agreement with EMAG.

This agreement will give EMAG guaranteed access to grid electricity at below US 2 cents/KWh. Low cost power in a reliable environment was one of the major factors for choosing Egypt as the site for the Dow technology magnesium smelter. Electricity is the primary cost item for operation of the smelter comprising around 25% of the estimated operating costs. Securing agreement to low cost power confirms the EMAG smelter as a low cost magnesium producer sitting at the bottom of the lowest quartile cost producers.- Web Site

Amulet-2 Appraisal Well Update - SUCCESSFUL EXTENSION OF AMULET-1 DISCOVERY

Since the last report Amulet-1 CH has been drilled alongside Amulet-1 to collect a core over the intersected reservoir section. A full 34 metre section of core was collected and has been dispatched for laboratory analysis.

The Amulet-2 sidetrack well has also been drilled to its planned total depth and preliminary wireline evaluation been completed.

The oil bearing sand from Amulet-1 was intersected in Amulet-2 on prognosis and preliminary analysis indicates it is oil bearing with an oil water contact consistent with Amulet-1.

In addition to this, a separate 6 metre oil sand was intersected shallower in the well. Pressure testing data suggests that this is lighter oil than that recovered from Amulet-1 and is in a separate pool. Initial indications are that the reservoir quality in the second sand in Amulet-2 is of better quality than the reservoir in Amulet-1. - Web Site

WALL STREET

Wall Street extended its monthlong retreat Monday as inflation fears kept investors on edge following hefty losses last week, the worst so far in 2006. A late-day selloff dragged the Dow Jones industrials down nearly 100 points and put the Nasdaq composite index at a seven-month low.

Recent signs of slowing economic growth now has Wall Street worried that too many rate hikes could send the economy sliding. Trading was expected to be skittish this week ahead of wholesale and consumer price data, which might bring clues about whether the Fed will boost rates again at its June 28-29 meeting.

Declining issues outpaced advancers by more than 4 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where preliminary consolidated volume of 2.3 billion shares trailed the 2.31 billion shares that changed hands Friday.

Crude futures dropped amid relief that the first major tropical storm of the year was expected to miss Gulf Coast refineries.

Gold prices in Asia fell as a strengthening U.S. dollar eroded the precious metal's appeal as an alternative investment.

MACMIN SILVER / NEW GUINEA GOLD

PRESS RELEASE - NEW GUINEA GOLD
106g/t GOLD OVER 3m INTERVAL AT IMWAUNA

Vancouver 8th June 2006. High grade gold has been intersected in three new drill holes at the Imwauna Project, Normanby Property, Papua New Guinea.

Hole IMH 67 intersected a 6m interval between 120.2 and 126.2m downhole at 67.98g/t gold and 68.9g/t silver, including a higher grade interval of 3m at 106g/t gold.

Hole IMH 68 which is 60m south of IMH 67 intersected 2.4m between 39.8 and 42.2m downhole at 13.68g/t gold and 65.7g/t silver.

Hole IMH 69 which is also 60m south of IMH 67 and approximately 50m below IMH 68 intersected 10m between 99.1 and 109.1m downhole at 18.10g/t gold and 31.4g/t silver including 2.2m at 32.5g/t gold and 49g/t silver.

Drilling is continuing and further results are expected within the next few weeks. The above intersections would be slightly greater than true widths.

The above drill results are outstanding, and appear to indicate the development of high grade gold mineralisation towards the southern end of the Imwauna vein system.

Mineralisation widths also appear to be increasing to the south and to depth. The fact that the mineralised zone has now been intersected at vertical depths of more than 100 metres below surface is also regarded as particularly significant.

As a check on the above assay results the higher grade zones are being re-assayed using the screen fire assay technique. All assays were completed at accredited laboratory ALS - Chemex at Townsville Australia.

Drill hole co-ordinates are shown on the accompanying table which lists details of holes IMH 67,68, and 69.

WALL STREET

Wall Street finished its worst week of the year with a moderate decline Friday as persistent unease over inflation and interest rates kept investors nervous about buying. Stocks had appeared to steady themselves in morning trading Friday following several days of heavy losses. But a jump in import prices and increased demand for foreign-made products renewed the market's inflation jitters and sent stocks sliding by midday.

The U.S. Trade Deficit Climbed to $63.4 Billion in April after 2 months of declines, pushed by oil prices and a flood of imports from China. Analysts warned that global oil prices above $70 per barrel will swell the deficit more in coming months.

Oil prices rose by more than $1 a barrel Friday, reversing a three-day decline. Brokers attributed the rise to tough talk from an Iranian cleric and the kidnapping of a senior Iraqi petroleum industry official. Also, a Nigerian government official said more than 800,000 barrels a day of the country's oil production was shut -- about 60 percent more than previously reported -- because of violence in the Niger Delta.

Copper prices held steady on Friday, a day after losing 6 percent as concerns about rising inflation and slowing global economic growth spurred a broad-based sell-off in financial markets.

Gold futures fell Friday to close at their lowest level in two months, suffering a cumulative four-session loss of nearly $36 an ounce to end the week down more than 4%.

Meanwhile, Merrill Lynch raised its 2006 gold price forecast to $650 an ounce from $525, and raised its 2007 outlook to $675 an ounce from $500 an ounce.

DRAGON MINING

Spot Sale of Svartliden Gold Production

Dragon Mining advises it has reached agreement to defer delivery of gold into the current hedge obligations and to sell gold production from the Svartliden Mine on a spot basis.

In consideration, the Company has agreed to apply all proceeds above US$400 per ounce to the outstanding Project Debt with the short term objective of paying off the present outstanding debt of US$ 5.2 million.

The agreement is subject to change with minimal notice. It involved the ?rolling out? of the balance of the June 2006 quarter hedge obligation until the September 2009 quarter. It is likely all of the September 2006 quarter hedged obligations will be ?rolled out? to a similar delivery period.

The Company is preparing a new ?life of mine? plan for Svartliden which will be an essential requirement in continuing to sell some gold production on a spot basis.- Web Site

JACKSON GOLD

Kalgoorlie Regional Nickel Project Update

Jackson Gold Limited informs the market that the Kalgoorlie Nickel Earn-in and Joint Venture ("KRNP Agreement") with LionOre Australia Pty Ltd ("LionOre") subsidiary Scotia Nickel Limited ("Scotia Nickel") is part of the LionOre transaction announced on 14 May 2006, whereby Breakaway Resources Limited ("Breakaway") have entered into a purchase agreement for greenfields projects held by LionOre ("Breakaway Purchase"). The Company's contracting party in the KRNP Agreement is Scotia Nickel which will be 100% owned by Breakaway following completion of this transaction, which is defined in a Notice of Meeting lodged by Breakaway on the 8 June 2006.

The Company believes the proposed transaction with Breakaway is extremely positive for the following reasons:

Breakaway will bring to the project strong financial resources and technical capability which is focussed on locating new nickel deposits within Western Australia.
Key LionOre exploration personnel will join newly appointed Breakaway Managing Director Peter Buck to direct exploration.
Lionore will remain a major shareholder of Breakaway and a pre-emptive right to treat any ore discovered at their adjacent Black Swan Operations site remains in place under the KRNP Agreement.
The KRNP earn-in obligation of Scotia Nickel involves the funding of a further $5 million of expenditure on in-ground nickel exploration before February 2010 to acquire a 60% interest in Jackson's Nickel Rights.
LionOre are continuing exploration on the project pending the completion of the Breakaway transaction, expected in the third quarter this year. 6. Breakaway are expected to accelerate exploration, particularly on the highly prospective Golden Valley prospect......- Web Site

Jeruk-3 Appraisal Well

The Jeruk-3 appraisal well is being drilled in the Sampang PSC, offshore Indonesia, approximately 1.8 km west of Jeruk-1 and 40 km south east of Surabaya.

As reported by Santos on 18 May 2006, the Jeruk-3 appraisal well has been flow tested over the open hole interval 4939 m MD to 4978 m MD (4663 m TVDSS to 4696 m TVDSS). This test was curtailed after several hours, prior to the flow and pressure being stabilized, due to a loss of control line pressure.

Following repairs, the well was subsequently re-tested over the same interval. The main flow test was conducted over a 48 hour period, and the well flowed oil at a stabilized rate of approximately 2750 bbl/day with a GoR of approximately 320 scf/bbl through a 16/64” choke, at a well head pressure of approximately 4500 psi.

Flow rates were constrained by surface facility limitations.- Web Site

WALL STREET

Wall Street recovered from an earlier plunge to finish narrowly mixed Thursday as investors attempted to rally from a week of losses fueled by concerns that higher interest rates will strain the global economy.

Persistent inflation and rate worries pushed stocks substantially lower during the session, with the Dow Jones industrials dropping more than 173 points at midday. But bargain hunters entered the market late in the day and took advantage of relatively cheap stock prices.

The market's comeback helped draw attention from rate increases by the European Central Bank, South Korea and India.

Oil prices fell for the third straight day on Thursday following the death of al-Qaida's leader in Iraq and on concerns of a slowdown in global economic growth.

Gold futures closed at an eight-week low Thursday as the dollar rallied on continued expectations that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates and on news of the death of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of al-Qaida in Iraq.

Other metals also fell sharply.

MINCOR PASSES TWO MILLION TONNE MILESTONE

Over 65,000 tonnes of Nickel Metal Produced from 2 Million Tonnes of Ore to Date

Kambalda nickel producer Mincor Resources NL (ASX: MCR) announced today that it had achieved a key milestone after mining and delivering its two millionth tonne of ore from its Kambalda Nickel Operations in Western Australia.

The milestone represents a landmark achievement for the Company, which started mining at Kambalda in early 2001 with total reserves of just 844,000 tonnes of ore at its Miitel Nickel Mine.

Mincor's two million tonnes of production has been mined at an average grade of 3.27% nickel, containing over 65,000 tonnes of nickel metal. This represents approximately 5% of all the nickel metal mined from the Kambalda Nickel District in its 35 year history. - Web Site

Dalray Oil well Plugged and Abandoned - Rig move to Rimfire

South Australian-based Stuart Petroleum Ltd today announces that it is moving to plug and abandon the Dalray #1 oil wildcat in the Cooper Basin PEL 93. The well failed to encounter economic hydrocarbons. Drill Stem Test #2 on Dalray #1, which was to test the Patchawarra Formation over the interval 1506m to 1525m, was aborted due to hole instability. The drilling rig now moves to Rimfire #1 in adjacent PEL 113, another shallow oil target, near to the Harpoono Oil Field.

"The disappointing result at Dalray effectively downgrades our expectations of oil reserves in the Padulla/Dalray complex," commented Stuart Petroleum managing director, Mr. Tino Guglielmo. "Exploitation of the Padulla oil field will now focus on the two successful wells on the structure, Padulla #2 and #3, which are 100% owned by Stuart."

WALL STREET

Stocks dropped Wednesday, extending investors' losses for the third straight session and pushing the Dow Jones industrial average below 11,000 for the first time since March 9.

The Dow has lost more than 316 points this week; the selloff has also wiped out the Nasdaq composite index's gains for the year and put the Standard & Poor's 500 index less than 8 points away from its Dec. 31 close. Volume was light, as it has been all week.

European markets closed higher after their Tuesday swoon, but Asian stocks continued to tremble. The Shanghai Composite Index dropped 5.36 percent, its biggest fall in more than four years, on fears that new share issues may outstrip demand. Japan's Nikkei stock average fell to its lowest close in six months on concerns over U.S. interest rates and the arrest this week of a high-profile fund manager.

Gold futures closed at a seven-week low Wednesday, as the dollar continued higher on expectations of a June rate increase and hopes for a break in the diplomatic impasse over Iran's nuclear program.

Other metals were mixed with silver up 4.5 cents at $11.89 an ounce, platinum off $4.40 at $1,231.50 an ounce and palladium down $7.10 at $338.75.
Copper overcame morning weakness to close up 9.5 cents at $3.584 a pound.

Drilling confirms significant shallow copper mineralisation at Maitland

Assay results have now been received for a reverse circulation percussion drilling program (20 holes/1253 metres) drilled at the Maitland copper prospect in May 2006. The results confirm the potential for an initial open pittable resource at Maitland and further drilling will be carried out once all data is reviewed in detail.

The drilling was designed to confirm results from previous 1960’s exploration and significant mineralisation was intersected in most holes....

The mineralisation intersected includes supergene enriched oxide material (eg MTRC003, 005 and 015) and primary sulphides (eg MTRC010 and 014). Metallurgical testwork is planned to determine recoveries of copper metal...... - Web Site

SYDNEY GAS

Production, Sales and Exploration Report May 2006

Camden Gas Project (SGL 50% interest)

Overall Status

In November 2005, Sydney Gas sold 50% of its petroleum interests, including the Camden Gas Project, to The Australian Gas Light Company Ltd (AGL) under a 50/50 Joint Venture agreement. In February 2006, AGL assumed the operatorship of the Camden Gas Project on behalf of the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture has a 10 year (with a four year option) gas supply agreement with AGL which replaces previous gas sales agreements between Sydney Gas and AGL that were initiated in 2001.

The current monthly production rate on an annualised basis now exceeds 4.4 Petajoules (PJ) (with Sydney Gas’ share being 2.2 PJ) per year.

Production and Operation Highlights

At the time of this report, a total of 67 Stage II wells were drilled, out of which 64 wells were completed and 57 wells were put into production to the Rosalind Park Gas Plant (RPGP).
Total production from Stage II during the month was 319,733 GJ (319.733 TJ) which was 2% higher than in April. The best producing well in Camden averaged 911 GJ per day during the month. Sydney Gas has a 50% share of these daily rates.
RPGP availability was 98.7% for the month compared with 98.2% in April.
Stage I had eight producing wells during the month. Total production from Stage I during the month was 72,971 GJ (72.971 TJ).
Ray Beddoe Treatment Plant (RBTP) availability was 98.9% compared with 96.3% in April.
From the four wells (SL02, SL03, EM40 and RP11) which were fracture stimulated in mid April, EM40 commenced production on 29 May to the RPGP with a gas rate of 400- 500 Mscfd. This well is still in the early phase of production and the gas flow rate is expected to increase within the next few weeks. Frac water is still being dewatered in SL02. The water rate is now declining. Medium to strong gas flows are indicated from this well and a test separator and metering package will be installed to test the flow rate. Frac water is currently still being recovered from SL03 and RP11.
As of 6 June, 36 km of seismic data has been recorded out of planned 100 km of seismic acquisition in the Camden area.
Joint Venture continues to develop methods to increase the productivity of the Stage II wells by improving the dewatering method and seeking to add production from the deeper seams ie Balgownie and Wongawilli........- Web Site

Signing of Revised Mauritanian Production Sharing Contracts

ROC advises that the following release was made earlier today by Woodside Petroleum Ltd:

"Woodside Mauritania Pty Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Woodside Petroleum Ltd., and its joint venture participants in Mauritania have signed revised production sharing contracts (PSCs) for offshore zones A, B, C2 and C6.

In a signing ceremony in Nouakchott overnight, representatives of Woodside, its joint venturers and the Islamic Republic of Mauritania formally agreed to the revised contracts for the four offshore zones.

The revised contracts reflect an agreement signed by Woodside and the Mauritanian Government in March this year which resolved a dispute between the parties over previous amendments to the original PSCs.

The major elements of the resolution, reflected in the revised PSCs, are:

Exploration periods are secured in line with previous arrangements;
A Chinguetti Project bonus of US$100 million shall be paid by the zone B joint venturers to the Mauritanian Government approximately 14 days following the approval of the revised PSC B and subsequent to the gazettal of the revised contract;
Fiscal incentives which will provide a greater share of revenue from the Chinguetti project to the Mauritanian Government during periods of high oil prices; and
Establishment of an Environmental Commission, funded through a total annual payment of US$1 million by the joint venturers during the life of production from the revised PSCs.

The revised PSCs come into effect after their formal gazettal in the Official Journal in the Islamic Republic of Mauritania.

WALL STREET

Stocks dropped for the second straight session Tuesday, with the Dow Jones industrial average falling to its worst close since March 9. Global markets also sold off as inflation fears worsened. The Dow lost more than 110 points in midday trading before narrowing its loss later in the session.

Declining issues led advancers by more than 2 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange.

Stocks in most Asian markets fell hard Tuesday, with Tokyo's Nikkei 225 index down 1.81 percent, while India's benchmark index fell 2.51 percent. The major European indexes also dropped, with Ireland's benchmark index down 4.89 percent and Austria's benchmark falling 4.75 percent.

Comex copper ignored bullish news over the past two sessions and closed sharply lower on Tuesday at the New York Mercantile Exchange after the U.S. Federal Reserve took a hawkish view on inflation.

The benchmark July contract settled 11.15 cents lower at $3.4895 per pound. During the session the contract got as low as $3.44 per pound.

Gold futures closed with a loss of $14 an ounce Tuesday as comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke on inflation -- interpreted as signaling more interest-rate increases -- helped lift the U.S. dollar to touch a one-month high against Japan's yen.

The Reverse Circulation (RC) infill drilling programme on the above project designed to outline the overall geometry and grades of mineralisation to 150m vertical depth is continuing. Drill logs have now been received for KRC 026, KRC 027 and KRC 028, drilled on Section 2 - See diagram attached.

KRC 026 (7821789N/501159E - 60deg/159deg) was drilled to the west of KRC 025 to test for mineralization down to 50m vertical depth.

The following intersection was logged:

Between 42m and 78m, there is a 36m zone within the quartzites which contains significant volumes of sphalerite and galena. The dolomite contact was logged at 78m.

KRC 027 (7821815N/501144E - 60deg/159deg) was drilled to the west of KRC 026 to test for mineralization down to 100m vertical depth.

The following intersections were logged:

Between 76m and 90m there are 5 zones totalling 10m which contain 5% to 30% sphalerite and an 8m zone of 5% to 20% galena between 78m and 86m.

Between 92m and 102m, there is a 10m zone which contains between 20% to 60% sphalerite (60% sphalerite was logged at 102m) and between 5% to 30% galena. The dolomite contact was logged at 102m.

KRC 028 (7821860N/501112E -60deg/159deg) was drilled west of KRC027 to test for mineralization down to 150m vertical depth.

The following intersections were logged:

Between 90m and 96m there is a 6m zone which contains between 10% to 40% sphalerite and 5% to 30% galena.

Between 117m and 126m there is a 9m zone which contains between 5% to 60% sphalerite (60% sphalerite was logged between 122m and 123m) and 5% to 50% galena.

Between 151 and 161m there is a 10m zone which contains between 10% to 30% sphalerite and a 3m zone of 5% galena between 155m and 158m.
Between 166m and 174m there is an 8m zone which contains between 10% to 25% sphalerite and 5% to 10% galena. Malachite was also logged in this zone.

This hole terminated in mineralization at 174m because of bit wear.

Consistent with previous drilling, the mineralised zones were intersected in a quartzite unit below a very cohesive dolomite hanging wall.

Drilling is continuing on Section 9, which is 100m north east of Section 2.

The Company is expecting the return of further assay results from completed holes KRC 020 to KRC 028 which have been submitted for assaying.

The above results are part of an infill drilling programme currently being conducted by the Company, with the intention of upgrading this 2.4 km long zone of mineralisation to an open pittable JORC compliant resource/reserve down to a vertical depth of 150 m. A scoping study conducted by ProMet Engineers in November 2005 has estimated some 17,500,000 tonnes to 100m depth yielding average grades of 3% zinc, 1% lead and 28 g/t silver, with significant credits from copper and vanadium.

TASGOLD

TENEMENT POSITION ENHANCED AND CONSOLIDATED IN TASMANIA

TasGold has successfully re-consolidated its dominant land position at the SMRV Project in SW Tasmania’s highly mineralised Mount Read Volcanic Province south of Macquarie Harbour, plus around the Lisle gold Project in the northeast of the state .

The Company re-acquired all the prospective area (137 km2 in 2 ELs) and prospects peripheral to the SMRV (by a competitive tender process based on expenditure commitment and associated work program) that it had strategically and voluntarily relinquished in 2005, due to Tasmania’s 5 year term policy on Exploration Licences.

TasGold now holds the entire highly prospective 45 kilometre strike length of Mt Read Volcanics south of Macquarie Harbour to Elliott Bay and will likely seek a Retention Licence over the base + precious metal mineralisation the Company has defined at the Wart Hill Prospect. - Web Site

Metallica Drilling Recommences on NORNICO Nickel

Metallica Minerals Limited (ASX Code ‘MLM’) is pleased to announce that drilling has recommenced on the NORNICO nickel project after a six week hiatus, due to a particularly long and late wet season resulting in access difficulties.

A 20 hole, 1000m RC programme is planned for the Kokomo Ni-Co laterite prospect to define an initial resource for that area and to follow up the good results encountered in KK-049 drilled in 2005. KK-49 intersected 34m @ 0.90% Ni and 0.34% Co (approximately 2% Nickel equivalent) from 15m and included 13m @ 0.28g/t Au from 36 to 49m (EOH) which was also associated with high anomalous values of Ba, Bi, Cu, Pb and Zn, see ASX release 14th June 2005.

On completion of the Kokomo nickel laterite drilling, the rig will locate to the Six Mile gold prospect to drill approximately thirteen RC holes for 2280m. This work will be under the direction of Metallica’s joint venture partner Straits Exploration Ltd.

While the drilling rig is at Kokomo, Metallica plans to drill test three high order airborne EM anomalies identified in September 2005, targeting nickel-basemetals and gold-copper massive sulphide mineralisation.

On completion of the above programme Metallica intends to return to Bell Creek in July to commence infill drilling at the Bell Creek South and North Leases to increase the resource status of these areas from Inferred to Indicated and possible Measured for the planned Pre-feasibility study.

An airborne EM anomaly identified at Bell Creek Northwest in late 2005 has been confirmed by a subsequent ground EM survey and will also be drill tested at this time, targeting nickel-copper-platinoid massive sulphide mineralisation. - Web Site

Cadenza-1 Gas Discovery - Cased & Suspended as a potential future gas producer
PEL 106 - Cooper Basin, South Australia

Great Artesian Oil and Gas Limited (ASX: GOG), on behalf of the Paranta Block Joint Venture, wishes to advise that at 0600 hrs CST this morning the status of Cadenza-1 was as follows:
Current Depth - 2993 m (Total Depth)
Current Operation - Running 7 inch production casing
Forward Operations - Case and Suspend

Cadenza-1 is being cased and suspended as a potential future gas producer. Further cased-hole production testing will be conducted in about three months when appropriate equipment and a smaller workover rig are sourced. DST-2 over the interval 2641-2644m was aborted on Saturday because of a mechanical packer failure. It was then decided to protect the hole with casing and defer further testing until a later date. Based on analysis of wireline logs and gas shows encountered while drilling a number of hydrocarbon bearing zones are interpreted in the well. DST-1 conducted on 2 June has previously confirmed deliverability from the zone 2691-2694m with a flow of 1.5 million cubic feet of gas per day (MMCFGD) through a 1/2" inch choke. - Web Site

Progress Report

Pedirka Basin
Central Petroleum Limited has completed reprocessing and analysis of good quality original field tape seismic data by WesternGeco and ISIS Petroleum Consultants over the Avalon and Blamore Prospects in EP93, the Pedirka Basin, and chosen locations for drilling. The results have upgraded Blamore as the priority target with cumulative deterministic “low”, “best” and “high” estimates of undiscovered petroleum initially in place of 75, 299, and 495 MMbbls. A probabilistic mean or “best” Prospective Resource of 44 MMbbls recoverable was calculated using a conservative recovery factor range of 20-22% in 6 stacked target reservoirs ranging from 1,300m to 2,050m in crestal depth.

Corresponding figures for the Avalon Prospect are 44, 110 and 267 “low”, “best” and “high” in place and a probabilistic mean or “best” recoverable of 26 MMbbls using the same conservative recovery factors in 5 stacked horizons over similar depth ranges.

The Central Land Council plans to commence sacred site clearance of access routes and drilling sites on June 13th 2006.

WALL STREET

Wall Street struggled to the finish Friday, closing out the week barely changed after a steep dip in monthly job growth left investors confused about the economy's health. The major indexes were narrowly mixed for the week.

Despite the major indexes' retreat, advancing issues still outnumbered decliners by about 2 to 1 on the NYSE.

Bonds surged on optimism about a possible end to the Fed's rate tightening. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note tumbled to 4.99 percent from 5.1 percent late Thursday.

The U.S. dollar fell against the Japanese yen but was flat versus European currencies.

Overseas stock markets showed signs of stabilizing after recent declines. Japan's Nikkei stock average gained 1.84 percent; Britain's FTSE 100 rose 0.26 percent, Germany's DAX index lost 0.36 percent and France's CAC-40 was higher by 0.25 percent.

Crude futures rebounded from two days of losses amid persistent worries about political tension in Nigeria and Iran - it was reported that eight foreigners working on a drilling rig off the coast of Nigeria had been kidnapped.

Gold futures closed higher Friday, leading an advance across the metals pits as the dollar fell sharply following a weaker-than-expected May jobs report and traders awaited the next exchanges in Iran's nuclear dispute with the West.

LAKES OIL

UPDATE ON CURRENT PROJECTS

Lakes Oil N.L. (ASX listing code "LKO") wishes to advise the status of our current projects:

Eagle North-1 well California USA

In order to reduce the costs and to carry out the testing of this well in a more efficient manner a completion rig and coiled tubing unit have been secured. This has enabled the operator to release the more costly large drilling rig which has been on site for several months.

Although the cost of this well has "blown out" significantly the operator is hopeful that flow rates of up to 1,000 barrels of oil per day can be achieved. Lakes Oil holds 15% interest in this well and with the oil price currently at approximately $70 a barrel we would re-coup our cost reasonably quickly if the well should flow as anticipated. Current timing for re-entry and testing of the well is expected in the next 10-14 days.

Sinopec Status

As previously reported to the ASX on 5 May 2006 Lakes has signed a conditional agreement with China Petrochemical Corp East China Petroleum Bureau (a subsidiary of "Sinopec") of Beijing. Sinopec is the largest oil and gas company in China.

This Agreement covers all Lakes Oil's permits and if it is implemented would see Sinopec becoming our joint venture partner and taking over the operatorship.

Lakes Oil has been advised that Sinopec is currently doing its due diligence in Beijing and continues to be keen to proceed with this project. Lakes Oil has also had discussions with several potential partners in the USA which are progressing.

Tight Gas Project

A recent report carried out by an independent organisation in the USA has indicated that the Wombat Field could hold up to 536BCF of gas in place and the Gangell Field 375BCF of gas in place. A conditional figure of between 32 BCF and 559 BCF of gas in place has been given for Trifon. (The large variance for the Trifon structure is dependant on the depth of the lowest recorded gas flow and this well still has zones which are yet to be fracture stimulated).

The report has indicated that based on the Wombat-2 well together with American experience the Wombat field developed on 40 acre spacing, could yield gas with a recovery factor of 50%.

Possibly the most interesting section of the report relates to the Wombat-2 well potential. In the past, 70,000 pounds of fracture proppant pellets were injected into the formation and induced fracture length of approximately 86 feet was achieved yielding the current 680,000 cubic feet of gas per day production rate. The report suggests that should a much larger amount of proppant be injected, resulting in fracture lengths of up to 600 feet from the wellbore to the tip, initial flow rates could be several times as great as our current flow. Current technology in the USA has some hydraulic fracture treatments carried out with over one million pounds of proppant injected, considerably larger than is currently carried out in Australia.

Lakes Oil wishes to emphasize that the report's references to these potential gas flows are based on a large number of assumptions, are subject to a large number of risks and there is a large degree of uncertainty associated with them. The potential gas flows should not be assumed to represent future reserves, which will depend on a variety of factors including the need to confirm their existence and characteristics and the ability to extract them in a commercial and cost effective manner.

By the same token, we remain confident of our tight gas project, we are continuing to consider the content and implications of the report, and are most encouraged by the Sinopec and USA interest. Both USA and China appear well ahead of Australia in relation to production of tight gas reservoirs.

LAKES OIL

PLACEMENT OF SHARES

Lakes Oil ("LKO") advises that it has today placed a total of 75,000,000 ordinary fully paid shares at 1.8 cents each to raise a total of $1,350,000 before brokerage. In addition, 25,000,000 unlisted options (on a 1:3 basis) are to be issued exercisable at 1.8 cents each expiring 2 June 2007. An appendix 3B will be issued at the time of allotment and receipt of cleared funds.

No shareholder approval to the placement is required.

Accordingly the trading halt can now be lifted.

The purpose of this placement is to raise funds working capital requirements and ongoing exploration activities, including additional costs for:-

Additional cost overruns in the testing of Eagle North-1 well in San Joaquin Basin California USA.
Re-entry of the Hunters Lane-1 well drilled in 1997.
Additional testing of the Trifon-2 and North Seaspray-3 wells.
Seismic survey currently being carried out in PEP 163 and PEP 164 onshore Otway Basin Western Victoria.

Daily Drilling Report PEL 106 - Cooper Basin, South Australia

Great Artesian Oil and Gas Limited ( ASX: GOG), on behalf of the Paranta Block Joint Venture, wishes to advise that Cadenza-1 is a new field gas discovery, following the flow of gas to surface during a Drill Stem Test (DST#1) conducted earlier this morning.

Preliminary results of the inflate-straddle DST #1, which is still being conducted, over the Patchawarra Formation interval 2691-2694m is a gas flow to surface, steadily increasing and currently at an estimated rate of approx 1.5 million cubic feet (mmcf) per day through a ½” choke. The gas pressure is increasing and is currently 440 psi. The test tool will remain open for a further duration in an attempt to ascertain maximum flow rate and pressure.

Preliminary wireline, mud and formation testing evaluation indicates that there are several additional gas saturated sands in Cadenza-1...... - Web Site

WALL STREET

Wall Street rallied for a second session Thursday as investors brushed aside mixed signals on inflation a day after the Federal Reserve said it was concerned about rising prices. While manufacturing activity slowed in May, high energy and materials costs drove a sharp uptick in prices paid and fueled fears that the Fed could continue lifting interest rates to contain inflation. But a downward revision to growth in first-quarter wage costs suggested prices were more subdued.

The U.S. economy appears to be shifting into a lower gear with residential construction falling sharply and manufacturing activity slowing. Residential Home Building Dropped by 1.1 Percent in April; Manufacturing Index Dipped to 54.4 in May

Oil prices fell further on data showing increased domestic reserves.

Gold futures closed above their worst levels Thursday, but still ended the session at a six-week low with traders using strength in the U.S. dollar as an excuse to continue to lock in recent gains.

July silver closed down 55 cents at $11.905 an ounce, falling below the $12 an ounce level for the first time since May 22.

Other metals prices also recovered from their worst levels, with July copper closing down 15.3 cents at $3.471 a pound after earlier being suspended limit down and hitting a one-month low of $3.34 a pound.

The Australian dollar fell to its lowest in a month as prices of metals plunged, worsening the outlook for the nation's export earnings.

Oxide copper ore, including widespread native copper metal, discovered at West Kalkaroo, supported by first drillhole result of 78m of 0.5% Cu and 0.75g/t Au from 75 m depth.
More than half the Kalkaroo orebody is oxidized and there is an extremely positive impact on the economics of Kalkaroo by mining and treating oxide ore in the upper part of the deposit ahead of the deeper sulphide ore through lower start up capital and higher revenue in the early years of operation.
Funding options for completion of feasibility and development of Kalkaroo and Mutooroo deposits continue to be vigorously pursued.

GREAT ARTESIAN OIL & GAS

FARMINEES TO FUND UP TO $47 MILLION IN FORWARD EXPLORATION PROGRAM.

Following announcements over the past few days of four significant farmin agreements, Great Artesian Oil and Gas Limited (ASX Code : GOG) has now finalized its forward exploration program. For the remainder of this calendar year the program will see Great Artesian participate in the drilling of 9 wells, 8 exploration and 1 appraisal, and acquisition of over 500 sq km of 3D seismic data, centred on its cornerstone South Australian Cooper Basin permits (PELs 91, 106 and 107). In addition a 1,325 km 2D seismic program is planned for mid year in Great Artesian's offshore Otway permit EPP 27 - where the Oilex operated Joint Venture, involving Gujarat State Petroleum and Videocom, will use this seismic to locate the site for a proposed 2007 exploration well.

Total farminee expenditure for the 2006 portion of the exploration program will be of the order of $24 million, of which Great Artesian will have approximately $10.5 million in free carry.

Strong farmin demand will also see third party commitments carry over into 2007, when a minimum of 4, and possibly up to 6.5, wells - including one offshore well, will be funded by farminees. The 2007 portion of the program currently involves an expenditure of up to $23 million, of which Great Artesian will have a free carry of approximately $9.5 million. Total 2006 and 2007 expenditure could total $47 million. - Web Site

NUSTAR MINING

Paulsens continues to perform
On the first anniversary of the inaugural gold pour at Paulsens, NuStar is poised to deliver its fourth successive quarter of production growth and cost reduction.

Based on results for the months of April and May 2006, gold production for the June quarter is forecast to exceed 21,000 ounces with mine site cash costs of A$340 - A$350 (approximately US$260) per ounce.

Over two tonnes of gold was poured in the first year of operations at Paulsens.

A diamond drilling programme (22 holes - 9,100 metres) aimed at extending the Paulsens mining reserve below its current base at 300 metres depth commences this month. The programme is expected to take ten weeks to complete.

This week Intrepid Minerals Corporation announced that Institutional Shareholder Services, Canada’s leading independent authority on proxy voting and corporate governance, recommended shareholders vote in favour of the company's proposed merger with NuStar.

Intrepid shareholders will meet in Toronto on 7 June 2006 to vote on the proposed merger, whilst NuStar shareholders are scheduled to meet in Perth on 26 June 2006.- Web Site
