WALL STREET

Stocks rise after new high for gold lifts minerals companies; Dow extends gains to 4th day

Stocks rose for a fourth straight day Friday, led by shares of minerals companies after gold prices settled at another record high.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 16 points; broader indexes also edged higher.

All three indicators posted solid gains for the week. The Dow is up 2.3 percent, the S&P 500 2.4 percent and the Nasdaq 3 percent.

Advancing stocks narrowly outpaced those that fell on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came to 1.8 billion shares versus 1.2 billion the day before. Volume was heavier because of the simultaneous expiration of four kinds of futures and options contracts, which occurs once every quarter.

Oil prices settled above $77 a barrel Friday after a day of choppy trading and continued concerns about oversupply of crude and slower global economic growth.

Gold prices hit a new record high Friday as investors fled into gold as a safe-haven asset.

Gold for August delivery settled $9.60 higher to $1,258.30 an ounce at the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Copper Mine Feasibility Nears Completion in Finland

Universal Resources (ASX: URL) today announced the progress of several key areas of the Company’s Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) on the 100%-owned Outokumpu project.

Located in Eastern Finland, the Outokumpu project is sheltered from the Australian Federal Government’s proposed super profits mining tax.

Universal’s Managing Director, Dr Alistair Cowden, said Finland was very supportive of the mining industry.

“Our development of a copper mine in Finland has attracted interest from Finnish government agencies which may assist with infrastructure grants and support of or participation in financing,” said Dr Cowden. “Finland has excellent geological databases, good infrastructure, stable mining legislation and readily available mining and engineering services and equipment providers.”

“While we understand patience has been required during our optimisation of the prior study which was completed in 2008, we are heading into a very exciting September quarter as the optimised study nears completion,” he said.

The Company utilised its strong balance sheet when markets were depressed to snap up the established 550,000tpa Luikonlahti concentrator and processing plant in Finland. This strengthened the project’s overall economics by removing the need for construction of an all new plant and transformed the project. - Web Site

COPPERMOLY (COY)

COPPER MINERALISATION INTERSECTED TO OVER 250 METRES DOWNHOLE DEPTH AT NAKRU-1
The first drillhole by Barrick (PNG Exploration) Ltd (Barrick) has intersected primary copper
mineralisation to below 250 metres downhole depth within the geophysical Induced
Polarisation (I.P.) anomaly (Refer to Figure 1).
The diamond drillhole (BWNBDD0001) is currently at 353 metres depth and will continue to the
target depth of 700 metres. There exists the possibility for additional stronger copper mineralisation
at further depth within the I.P anomaly. The hole collared into an ‘Oxidised Zone’ above a zone of
‘Secondary Copper Enrichment’ represented by chalcocite and covellite. Primary copper
mineralisation below the ‘Base of Oxidation’ (Refer to Figure 2) at 75 metres to 250 metres depth
confirms the association of copper with the I.P. chargeability anomaly.
Primary Copper Mineralisation is hosted by chlorite-silica (+/- sericite) altered breccia and rhyolite
and consists of largely quartz-veinlet controlled chalcopyrite and pyrite.
Core samples to approximately 270 metres depth have been dispatched to the Intertek laboratories
in Lae with assay results pending. Barrick has prepared its second drill site at Nakru-1.

Drillhole BWNBDD0001 is approximately 200 metres northeast of the historical drillhole (NAK017)
which intersected 210.1 metres grading 0.45% copper and 0.17g/t gold from 61.2 metres depth,
including 8.8 metres grading 1.95% copper (cut-off 0.8% copper) from 61.2 metres depth. The
association of copper mineralisation to over 250 metres depth within the main body of the I.P.
anomaly demonstrates significant tonnage potential of the copper system. - Web Site

ARC EXPLORATION (ARX)

UPDATE ON SCOUT DRILLING AT
TRENGGALEK GOLD PROJECT IN INDONESIA

  • Further drilling confirms mineralised extension to West Sentul Vein
  • First drilling at Dalangturu highlights potential for epithermal vein discoveries

Arc Exploration Limited (ASX Code: ARX) is pleased to announce further results from its scout drilling program at Trenggalek in East Java. The results reported today are from six holes – two further holes completed on Sentul and the first four holes testing Dalangturu Prospect.

A total of 22 holes have been reported to date, including those reported today, or about 48% of the scout drilling program planned for this year. To put the scout drilling program in context, our objectives over this year are to better define the multiple target areas identified by ARX within the Trenggalek IUP area. The results of this work will refine and concentrate our efforts in future work programs with the aim of defining economic resources. The current program is only at mid-stage and we have previously reported material intercepts in some holes at Sentul, including up to 2 m at 17.2 g/t Au at +100 m below surface in hole TRDD 4. Most of the scout holes reported to-date have returned gold intercepts of varying degrees of intensity.

Sentul Prospect

Two holes (TRDD 18 and 21) were drilled to test for mineralized extensions to the open southern strike projection of the West Sentul Vein. Both holes intersected the main vein structure, which is about 15 m wide, and also several narrower tension veins in the footwall.

TRDD 18 intersected two significant vein zones. The first, interpreted to be the West Sentul Vein, returned 18.85 m at 0.98 g/t Au & 16 g/t Ag from 31.35 m down-hole and included narrow higher grade intercepts of 1 m at 6.31 g/t Au & 208 g/t Ag, 1 m at 2.38 g/t Au & 12 g/t Ag, and 1 m at 2.1 g/t Au & 6 g/t Ag. The second, interpreted to be a footwall tension vein, returned 11.4 m at 0.77 g/t Au & 6 g/t Ag from 76.0 m down-hole.

TRDD 21 intersected the West Sentul Vein shallower than expected, suggesting a swing in its strike direction toward the west (see Figure 1). The West Sentul Vein was intersected from 24.1 to 56.9 m down-hole and returned a best intercept of 4.7 m at 0.65 g/t Au & 1 g/t Ag from 24.1 m down-hole, which included a narrow intercept of 0.7 m at 1.87 g/t Au & 9 g/t Ag.

The results from these holes confirm that the West Sentul Vein extends for at least another 80 m to the south and maintains a substantial true-thickness of between 10-20 m...... - Web Site

WALL STREET

The stock market managed a slender gain Thursday after traders shook off a pair of disappointing economic reports.

The Dow Jones industrial average closed up about 24 points after falling 90 early in the day, and scored its first three-day advance since April. The Standard & Poor's 500 and Nasdaq composite indexes both rose a little more than a point.

The late rebound following downbeat employment and manufacturing news suggests that investors may be getting more confident about the economic recovery.

The government said early in the day that the number of people seeking unemployment benefits rose unexpectedly last week. Initial claims for jobless benefits increased 12,000 to 472,000.

Losing stocks were slightly ahead of gainers on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 4.6 billion shares, down from 5.1 billion on Wednesday.

Copper fell for a second day in New York and London on concern a report may signal an uneven economic rebound in the U.S., the world’s second-biggest consumer of the metal.
July N.Y. copper closed down 900 points at 290.55 cents Thursday. Prices closed near the session low and were pressured by weaker U.S. economic data and ideas that China has a copper surplus, at present.

Comex gold futures closed solidly higher, near the session high and came close to last week's all-time record high on Thursday. Weak U.S. economic data pushed the U.S. dollar index and stock indexes lower, and rallied the Euro currency, which in turn lent to fresh buying interest in gold. Price action Thursday suggests traders are resuming notions that a weaker U.S. dollar is a supportive factor for gold. Such had been the case until the European Union debt crisis rattled the world's market structure. August Comex gold closed up $18.00 an ounce at $1,248.50. Spot gold last traded up $16.60 at $1,247.50.

Redback 2 Gas Exploration Well, Northern Perth Basin, Western Australia

Redback 2

Progress and Status:

Origin Energy, on behalf of the L11 Joint Venture, advises that the Weatherford drilling rig 826 is currently drilling the Redback 2 exploration well. This well is being drilled from the same surface location as Redback 1, drilled in 2004.

An attempt to obtain wireline logs was unsuccessful due to difficult hole conditions. During the week the wireline tool was recovered from the well and rig maintenance was performed before drilling ahead to a total depth of 3,966m MDRT# (3,769 metres sub-sea) on 16 June.

At 06.00 hours Western Standard Time today wireline logs were being acquired. Progress for the week was 55 metres.

Well type and location

Onshore gas exploration well, Perth Basin, Western Australia (L11 / EP 320).

Redback 2 is being drilled as a directional well to intersect the target Wagina reservoir at a subsurface location 380 metres NNW of Redback 1 at a prognosed vertical depth of 3,715 metres sub-sea - Web Site

A1 Gold Mine Delivers High Grade Gold Intercept

Heron Resources (ASX:HRR) is pleased to announce a high grade drill intercept from hole L7_0049 at the A1 Gold Mine in Victoria. Drilling underground from the historic mine adit on the 7 Level returned an intercept of 10.4m at 11.2 g/t gold from 11 metres down hole, within a broader zone of 19m at 6.83 g/t gold.

Heron is evaluating the A1 Gold Mine through underground development and drilling supported by bulk sampling to determine the potential to establish an operation based on mining approximately 100,000 tonnes of ore per annum through mechanised methods to produce between 25,000 and 30,000 ounces of gold per year. The Heron target is a bulk tonnage gold stockworks system, hosted by a Dyke (as opposed to the traditional Victorian “saddle reefs”). The current drill results demonstrate the presence of significant widths of mineralisation and are an important step to determining the viability of any proposed operation.

Texas Drilling Update

Starnes 1
The Starnes 1 well (Strike WI: 30%), on the Pathfinder prospect in Live Oak
County, Texas, reached its total depth of 13,030 feet (3,972 metres) on 16 June
and wireline logging has been carried out.

Some gas shows were recorded in the well while drilling. Interpretation of
these wireline logs and information while drilling indicate that no commercial
hydrocarbon pay zones exist in the well.

The well is now being plugged and abandoned.


Muegge 1
The Muegge 1 well (Strike WI: 30%), on the Homestead prospect in Wharton
County, Texas, was at a depth of 11,380 feet (3,468 metres) on 16 June 2010.
Mechanical operational delays have occurred with the drilling operation and
this has deferred drilling progress. The well is expected to reach its total depth
of 14,000 feet (3,962 metres) by late June to early August. - Web Site

Stocks close little changed after BP agreement for victim fund eases uncertainty about company

BP's agreement to put $20 billion into a fund for victims of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill lifted the stock market off its lows and sent the major indexes to a narrowly mixed finish.

The oil company also said Wednesday it has canceled a dividend payment totaling about $2.6 billion that was scheduled for June 21. It also won't declare a dividend for the second and third quarters. Investors saw the news as an end to the uncertainty about BP's stability, and that helped steady the overall market. The Dow Jones industrial average rose about 4 points, while the Standard & Poor's 500 index fell less than a point and the Nasdaq composite index was virtually unchanged.

The market began the day by falling on news that home construction and applications for building permits slumped in May following the end of a homebuyer tax credit. Meanwhile, FedEx Corp. released a disappointing profit forecast for the fiscal year that began June 1, and that raised more questions about the economic recovery.

Stocks also steadied after the euro pulled off its lows. A Spanish newspaper reported that the International Monetary Fund and European Union were trying to come up with a financial rescue for Spain.

Losing stocks were ahead of advancers by 3 to 2 on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 5.1 billion shares, up from 4.7 billion on Tuesday.

Oil prices were little changed Wednesday after a government report showed crude stockpiles increased more than expected.

July N.Y. copper closed down 90 points at 299.55 cents Wednesday. Prices closed near mid-range and did poke to a fresh two-week high. Copper prices are still in a two-month-old downtrend on the daily bar chart.

Comex gold futures closed slightly lower in quieter trading activity Wednesday. Mild profit-taking pressure was featured on the corrective pullback in prices. August Comex gold closed down $3.90 an ounce at $1,230.50. Spot gold last traded down $2.20 at $1,232.50.

ATLAS IRON (AGO)

NEW DSO DISCOVERY AT WODGINA
Atlas Iron Limited (ASX Code: AGO) is pleased to report the discovery of “Hercules”, a new direct
shipping grade iron ore (DSO) prospect, at its Wodgina DSO operation, 110 kilometres south of Port
Hedland in Western Australia.

Hercules, located 3 kilometres from the mine infrastructure, has now been drilled on an 80 metre by
80 metre grid pattern and better results include (See attached table of drill results for further detail):

Hercules
52 metres at 59.5% Fe from surface in WDRC1446
46 metres at 59.3% Fe from 2 metres in WDRC1506
32 metres at 58.5% Fe from surface in WDRC1421
34 metres at 58.0% Fe from 16 metres in WDRC1422
“Clearly there is an opportunity to generate significant value and mine life from these types of
discoveries,” commented David Flanagan, Atlas’ Managing Director. “As the team continues to find
new deposits, the Wodgina project is becoming the company maker we always thought it could be.”
As part of ongoing resource development the Company is also following up on extensions to
discoveries at Avro and Anson reported during 2009. New areas of mineralisation have been
identified and it is likely they will provide material contributions to the Wodgina resources and
reserves later in the year. Better results include (See attached table of drill results for further detail):

Dragon
70 metres at 59.7% Fe from surface in WDRC1221
64 metres at 59.2% Fe from surface in WDRC1215
56 metres at 59.4% Fe from 10 metres in WDRC1230
52 metres at 59.6% Fe from 36 metres in WDRC1296.

Avro
38 metres at 59.9% Fe from 34 metres in WDRC1451
26 metres at 58.9% Fe from 36 metres in WDRC1315
32 metres at 58.3% Fe from 30 metres in WDRC1262
38 metres at 58.1% Fe from 10 metres in WDRC1455.

Atlas remains on track to achieve iron ore exports at a combined rate of 6 million tonnes per annum
from its Pardoo and Wodgina operations by December 2010. - Web Site

Chairman`s Address to Shareholders

....The support of Gindalbie shareholders is vital to ensure that the $2 billion Karara Project – currently one of the
largest new resource projects under construction in Australia and the single-largest resource project in the Mid
West region – is completed on schedule and is able to realise its full potential as a world-class, long-life asset.
Notwithstanding the renewed uncertainty and volatility we have seen in global markets in recent weeks – and the
cloud overhanging the Australian mining industry in the form of the Federal Government’s proposed Resource
Super Profits Tax – Gindalbie and our Chinese partner, Ansteel, remain resolute in our commitment to the Karara
Project. I have recently written to shareholders on some of these issues.
I will therefore restrict my opening comments to providing some explanation and background about the single
resolution before shareholders today.
Gindalbie announced on 9 April that it had formally signed the Mandate Letter and Term Sheet for the US$1.2
billion Karara Project Loan facility, marking a major step towards completing the debt funding arrangements for the
Karara Project.
As you would be aware, Gindalbie and Ansteel have already contributed a combined total of $534 million in equity
for development of the project, providing funds which have enabled us to proceed with project construction and the
award of several major contracts while the debt component is finalised.
On 5 May, we announced the requirement of key security arrangements relating to this US$1.2 billion project loan
facility and it is these security arrangements that are the subject of today’s meeting. An Independent Expert’s
Report by Deloitte Corporate Finance Pty Limited, which was included in the Notice of Meeting documentation that
was mailed to you, concluded that the Proposed Loan Security is fair and reasonable to non-associated
shareholders of Gindalbie.
In its report, Deloitte notes that Ansteel’s support and the Proposed Loan Security has made it possible to obtain a
favourable loan facility, in terms of the proposed term, lending margin, bank fees, security and covenants. Deloitte
notes that these terms were obtained as a result of Ansteel’s credit rating and standing in China, as well as its
willingness to provide the Sponsor Guarantee.
Deloitte goes on to note that the Proposed Loan Security is usual for a project financing transaction of this nature
and that alternative funding sources would likely be difficult and expensive to obtain in the current market.
It is also important to note that these security arrangements do not in any way change the ownership structure of
the Karara Project or our relationship with Ansteel. KML remains a true 50/50 partnership, with two representatives
each on its Board from Ansteel and Gindalbie...... - Web Site

Rio Tinto to invest US$469 million in development of Kennecott Eagle nickel and copper mine

Rio Tinto is to invest US$469 million in constructing the Kennecott Eagle nickel and copper mine in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula (USA) following receipt of final environmental approvals. Construction of the mine and mill will begin this year and first production is expected in late 2013.

Andrew Harding, chief executive Copper, said, “Moving to the construction phase of Eagle is part of our strategy to increase investment in attractive growth projects in 2010. The long-term demand outlook remains strong for both nickel and copper and bringing Eagle on stream will give us greater benefit from that growth.”

Eagle will be the only primary nickel mine in the US, and is the first new mining operation to be built in Michigan in decades, under some of the most stringent environmental permitting rules in the US. “This reflects an environmentally responsible and community focused operation,” said Mr. Harding.

Eagle will produce separate nickel and copper concentrates containing an average of 17,300 and 13,200 tonnes per year of nickel and copper metal respectively over six years. Funding will enable construction of a new underground mine, associated surface facilities for servicing the mine, rehabilitation of an existing mill and development of a multi-use access road. The Upper Peninsula of Michigan is a highly prospective region for nickel and copper exploration and Rio Tinto is actively exploring for additional resources in the immediate area.

Rio Tinto letter to shareholders

At the company’s Annual General Meeting held in Melbourne a few weeks ago, there was considerable discussion of the Government’s proposed Resource Super Profits Tax. Your board has serious concerns about the impact of this proposed new tax, not only for Rio Tinto and the mining industry, but indeed for the whole of Australia’s future economic prosperity. During the course of the meeting, it became apparent that your board’s concerns were widely shared by shareholders, as a result of which I have decided to write to you to express our misgivings in clear and simple terms.

When the Henry Tax Review was first announced by the Government two years ago, Rio Tinto indicated clearly that we wanted to be positively engaged in the process. We have been long time supporters of genuine tax reform that enhances the efficiency and competiveness of the Australian economy. The proposed super tax does not deliver either of these goals. In fact, the Government’s proposal will penalise efficiency, discourage competitiveness, curtail investment and limit jobs growth.

Rio Tinto, like the rest of the mining industry, has grave concerns about the fundamentals of the new tax. It has been developed in a vacuum and is divorced from the day-to-day realities of business.

We are particularly concerned by the application of the tax to existing projects. The mining industry invests billions of dollars a year in new projects and most of these projects take years, even decades, to pay back that investment. Companies like Rio Tinto are naturally only prepared to make such major long term commitments in stable legal, tax and regulatory environments. The Government’s current proposals, arrived at without consultation, have now significantly destabilised that investment framework. As a result, there has been a considerable increase in the perceived risk of investing in Australia, threatening to make Australia a much less attractive place in which to invest.

The risk that unexpected and unforeseen government action will negatively impact on the value of investments is often referred to as “sovereign risk” and, with almost half our Group’s assets invested in Australia, I am sure you will understand why our Chief executive, Tom Albanese, recently referred to Australia as now being his number one sovereign risk concern.

Under the proposed super tax, the industry will be taxed at a rate approaching 57 per cent, which means that Australia will have the highest taxed mining industry in the world. With such a high tax rate, the attractiveness of investing in mining in Australia will be further reduced. Other countries will benefit as investment shifts from Australia to more attractive tax regimes.

We are currently reviewing all our projects in Australia under the worst-case tax scenario to assess the impact the proposed super tax will have on our future growth plans. However, what is abundantly clear to us, is that had this tax been in place ten years ago, we would not have invested as much as we have in the Pilbara, and Rio Tinto would have been a much smaller producer of iron ore today.

The mining industry has assumed a critical role in the ongoing economic success of Australia. We played a major part in ensuring that Australia did not suffer as harshly as the rest of the world from the effects of the Global Financial Crisis. It is crucial that any tax reform does not undermine Australia’s strongest industry.

We are particularly concerned that the Government announced the super tax proposals without any prior consultation with the industry. Since that announcement, we have continued to emphasise our desire to enter into constructive engagement with the Government, on the basis that genuine consultation would require that all aspects of the proposed tax are open for discussion. We are keen to work positively with the Government on tax reform that would not damage Australia’s competitiveness, its mining industry or the superannuation funds of millions of Australians.

Rio Tinto’s contribution to Australia
I have been deeply concerned about the misrepresentations that have been made about Rio Tinto during the course of this debate. In particular, there has been speculation around the actual amount of taxation that we have been paying in Australia. Rio Tinto has always paid its fair share of tax. We recently released data independently verified by our auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers, which confirmed that we have paid tax at an effective rate of 35 per cent on our Australian profits over the past decade. From 2000 to 2009 our corporate tax and royalties paid amounted to A$20 billion.

The ten-year analysis also underlined how Rio Tinto has reinvested its Australian profits back into Australia. From 2000 to 2009 we generated net profit after tax of about A$37 billion in Australia and re-invested about A$38 billion back into Australia - A$26 billion in capital expenditure and A$12 billion in acquisitions.
We are also proud of the wider contribution we make directly to the Australian community. In 2009, we employed more than 19,000 people across 36 operating sites, and we continue to be the largest private sector employer of Indigenous Australians. We supported more than 1,000 socio-economic programmes in Australia across health, education, business development and environmental protection, at a cost of some A$35 million. We also contributed a similar amount in direct payments via trusts and impact benefit agreements with host communities, taking our total direct community contributions in 2009 to more than A$70 million. I believe this clearly reflects our commitment and desire to actively engage in helping to build a better Australia.

What are we doing?
Rio Tinto has sought a genuine consultation process with the Government on the proposed super tax and has assured it that we remain willing and able to engage in constructive discussions.

We continue to work with our industry colleagues and the Minerals Council of Australia to ensure that our position on the super tax proposals is effectively communicated, not only to the Government, but also to the Australian community.

What can you do about the new mining tax?
If you want more information about this important issue and to make your voice heard, I would encourage you to visit the Keep Mining Strong website at keepminingstrong.com. At this website you will find regular updates and it will also provide guidance about how you can actively participate in this debate. For further information regarding Rio Tinto’s contribution to the debate please visit www.riotinto.com.

Rio Tinto has been contributing to Australia’s development more than 100 years and Australia has always played an important role in Rio Tinto’s success. We believe we are part of an industry that has contributed hugely to the wealth, success and development of Australia. We do not want that to change.

RAMELIUS RESOURCES (RMS)

Ramelius passes 100,000oz milestone at Wattle Dam gold mine in W.A.

A high grade Western Australian gold mine wholly-owned by Ramelius
Resources Limited (“RMS”) has achieved the milestone of 100,000 fine
ounces of total gold production.
The landmark is being celebrated this week at the Wattle Dam mine –
now an underground mining operation - 25 kilometres west of Kambalda.
The total output to date is split evenly between 50,000 ounces from the
mine’s former open-cut operations, and a contribution of a further 50,000
ounces since Wattle Dam moved to an underground gold mining
operation since the December 2009 quarter.
Ramelius expects to generate 20,000 ounces of gold production in the
current June quarter as the mine continues to deliver high grade ore
above the planned mine grade. - Web Site

Gas Flows at Highway 71

US-focused oil and gas exploration and production company, Target Energy
Limited (“Target”) (ASX:TEX) is pleased to advise that perforation and flow
testing from the Cook Mountain sands at its Merta #1 well have yielded
commercial gas and oil flows.

Following the mobilisation of a completion rig to the Merta #1 well site at
Target’s 25%-owned Highway 71 prospect in Wharton County, Texas, the 114.5
mm (4 1/2 inch) casing above 2,438 m depth was removed from the borehole
and the Cook Mountain sandstone subsequently perforated in multiple intervals.

Production from the lower Cook Mountain sands appears to be stabilising,
averaging approximately 1.1 million cubic feet of gas per day with 12 barrels of
oil per day over the last 48 hours.

Initial analysis suggests the contribution from an upper interval, including the
sand that yielded a gas flow during formation testing undertaken while drilling,
appears to be minimal. Additional pressure and flow data are being acquired to
determine an appropriate stimulation strategy.

The completion rig and testing equipment have been released and the well is
flowing into the sales line. - Web Site

Broad Zones of Copper Mineralisation Intersected at Whim Creek

Assay results include:
MCR001: 53 metres @ 1.7% Cu including:
22 metres @ 2.9% Cu & 0.6g/t Au

Venturex Resources Limited (Venturex) is pleased to report that resource definition
drilling at Mons Cupri, part of the Pilbara Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS)
Project, has intersected substantial widths of copper mineralisation, along with
zones of zinc, lead, silver and gold mineralisation.
The aim of the drilling program is to delineate and extend lenses of high grade Cu‐
Zn‐Pb‐Ag mineralisation, develop a high grade mining schedule and provide samples
for metallurgical testwork. Initial drilling has focused on extension of in‐pit
resources at Whim Creek, infill drilling of copper resources Mons Cupri and Evelyn,
and infill drilling of high‐grade Zn‐Pb‐Ag lenses at Salt Creek. All resources are
located within a 25 kilometres radius of Whim Creek, the proposed location of a mill
and concentrator.
The first hole in the infill program at Mons Cupri intersected 53 metres of copper
mineralisation, including a higher grade zone of 22 metres @ 2.9% Cu. The result
shows that the high grade copper zone in the central part of the Mons Cupri deposit
is shallower and flatter than expected. This is likely to enhance the resource
estimate and improve ore:waste ratios in an open pit cut‐back.

WESTERN AREAS (WSA)

DRILLING INTERSECTS NEW NICKEL SULPHIDE ZONE
AND EM CONDUCTOR NEAR NEW MORNING DEPOSIT

The Board of Western Areas is pleased to announce a significant intersection of strongly
disseminated nickel sulphides, 200m north and below the high grade New Morning deposit.
New Morning is located midway between Western Areas’ Flying Fox and Spotted Quoll mines
(Figure 1). Drilling has been in progress for several months to target possible extensions directly
below New Morning and the new intersection is well north of any previous drilling at this depth.

The intersection in drill hole NMD 137 consists of an 88.3m interval from 868.4m to 956.7m
down hole depth which includes several zones of disseminated and localised stringer sulphides
separated by bands of granite and footwall sediments (Figures 2 and 3). The estimated true
width of the mineralisation is 20-30m.

Preliminary Niton estimates (refer to Disclaimer) have returned spot values up to 2% nickel for
the disseminated sulphides and peak values up to 6% nickel and 3% copper for the stringer
sulphides. Assay results are awaited from the drill core to confirm nickel and copper grades.

A strong down hole EM anomaly has also been interpreted at approximately 640m depth below
the main zone of granite intrusions intersected in NMD 137 (Figure 2). The granite intrusions
form a 200m wide zone of flat lying sheets intruding a fault. The geological setting shows a
number of important similarities to the T1 orebody position at Flying Fox, 3km to the north.

Drilling is now targeting the EM anomaly and should intersect the prospective contact 200m
above the intersection in NMD 137. The aim of the follow up drilling will be to find the centre
of the lava channel which could host high grade massive sulphides similar to Flying Fox. - Web Site

WALL STREET

Industrial, technology stocks lift market on signs of increasing demand; Dow rises 213

Industrial and technology stocks pulled the market sharply higher Tuesday after Boeing Co. said it was boosting production and an industry group forecast that demand for computers would increase.

More good news on industrials came from the New York Federal Reserve, which said regional manufacturing expanded for an 11th straight month in June.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 213 points to its highest close since May 19 and had their third advance in four days. Major stock indexes rose more than 2 percent.

The Standard & Poor's 500 index moved above its average close of the past 200 days, 1,108. The 200-day moving average is a technical level watched by many traders. Pushing above that is seen as a sign of strength in the market.

The advance was broad, but came on light trading volume.

Six stocks rose for every one that fell on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 4.7 billion shares, versus 4.5 billion shares the day before.

A gain in the euro and a drop in the US dollar signaled that traders are less worried that debt problems in Europe will disrupt a global recovery.

Oil prices rose Tuesday on forecasts of falling U.S. crude supply. Crude oil for July delivery rose $1.82 to settle at $76.94 a barrel.

July N.Y. copper closed up 125 points at 300.45 cents Tuesday. Prices closed near the session high on more short covering and fresh bargain-hunting buying interest.

Comex gold futures closed higher and near the daily high in quieter dealings Tuesday. On the corrective pullback traders once again stepped in to "buy the dip" in the still solidly uptrending gold market. August Comex gold closed up $10.00 an ounce at $1,234.50. Spot gold last traded up $10.90 at $1,232.40.

RELINQUISHMENT OF OMAN BLOCK 56

Oilex Ltd (ASX/AIM: OEX) advises that the Joint Venture covering onshore Block 56 in Oman (Oilex 25%
interest and operator) has given notice of its intention to relinquish the entire Block 56 Contract Area
following discussions with the Oman Ministry of Oil and Gas (MOG).
The decision to relinquish Block 56, which has been made in accordance with the Exploration and
Production Sharing Agreement (EPSA), follows a detailed review of the prospectivity of the Block following
exploration activities conducted over the past four years.
On behalf of the Block 56 Joint Venture, Oilex Oman Limited (as Operator) will proceed to close down Joint
Venture activities to the mutual satisfaction of the MOG and the Joint Venture at the earliest reasonable
date. The Joint Venture appreciates the cooperation of the MOG that has been extended in this regard.
The amount the Joint Venture has incurred on exploration and appraisal activities to date is in excess of the
amount required to be expended under the EPSA.
The decision to relinquish Block 56 is consistent with Oilex’s increasing focus on its onshore assets in India,
its offshore exploration acreage in the North West Shelf of Western Australia and new ventures
opportunities in India and South East Asia. - Web Site

TAP OIL (TAP)

GAS CONTRACT DISPUTE – SUPREME COURT TO HEAR TRIAL OF KEY ISSUES

Tap Oil Limited (ASX: TAP) is pleased to advise that the Supreme Court has granted an application for an early trial of issues dealing with certain core aspects of the dispute with Burrup Fertilisers. These issues include the way the liquidated damages regime under the Gas Sale Agreement with Burrup Fertilisers (GSA) is to be applied (if required), and are at the centre of the declaratory action brought by Tap in July 2009.

The issues largely involve matters of contractual construction, and as such will be able to be dealt with by the Court in an expedient manner and will not necessitate a lengthy and costly trial process. Timing of the trial of these issues is uncertain at this juncture, however, it is possible that the Court may hear the trial in late 2010 or 2011.

Determination of these issues will go a long way to providing the parties to the dispute with commercial certainty.

Tap’s position remains that it has no liability for any shortfall in relation to reserves. Further, Tap has no liability for any future shortfall in delivery that may arise under the GSA as a consequence of force majeure. In the alternative, Tap claims that in the event that force majeure is successfully disputed, damages for a shortfall in reserves or delivery are limited to the liquidated damages set out in the GSA.

Tap’s Managing Director, Mr Peter Stickland said:

“Tap welcomes the Court’s decision to accelerate the hearing of these contractual construction issues. While Tap remains confident in its force majeure claim, it is prudent to have clarity regarding Tap’s potential liability for damages if the force majeure is successfully disputed. The early hearing of these contractual interpretation issues should go a long way towards achieving this.” - Web Site

NEW MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE FOR THE HERA GOLD DEPOSIT 

Highlights

  • Completion of the Resource Estimate is a key milestone of the ongoing project DFS
  • Significant upgrade in resource confidence, with approximately 70% of resources now in
    the ‘Indicated’ category and available for potential conversion to mining reserves
  • Hera deposit estimated to contain 560,000oz Au equivalent at a grade of 8.0g/t Au Eq
  • Hera Project Resource tonnage has increased from 1.78Mt (Triako 2005) to 2.18Mt,
    although gold grade has decreased
  • Current resource estimate reflects only specific lenses of the deposit, being Main Lens,
    Hays Lens and the Far West Lens which have been drilled in sufficient detail. Additional
    mineralised lenses have been encountered and will also be incorporated into future
    updates of the Mineral Resource
  • Mineralisation remains open at depth, and along strike the north and south
  • Increased tonnage points to potential for increased mining/processing rate and the
    opportunity to reduce process operating costs. - Web Site

Drilling Confirms Widespread Gold Mineralisation at Kandia Prospect

Castle Minerals Limited (ASX: CDT) is pleased to announce that the first RC drilling program to test the Kandia artisanal gold workings in north west Ghana has outlined a number of strike extensive zones of sediment hosted gold mineralisation.

Castle's Managing Director, Mr Mike Ivey, said "These results are very encouraging and confirm to us that the Kandia trend (granite/sediment contact) is capable of hosting bulk tonnage sediment hosted gold mineralisation. We have strong gold in soil anomalism over at least 15km of strike that requires infill sampling and drill testing.

The 6km long zone south of the Kandia artisanal workings actually reported a stronger geochemical response than the site of artisanal gold workings and represents a priority target for further work. We only discovered Kandia eight weeks ago and it is quickly developing into a key prospect for Castle and again demonstrates the unexplored and highly prospective nature of our large landholdings in Ghana" - Web Site

GOLDEN RIM RESOURCES (GMR)

Second Phase of Drilling Commences at Sepola, Mali

Golden Rim Resources Ltd (ASX: GMR, Golden Rim) today announced the second phase of
reverse circulation drilling has commenced on the Sepola Project in Mali.

The second phase of drilling is to total 8,000m and is designed to test potential targets identified at
the Linnguekoto and Mogoyafara South prospect areas by the recently completed induced
polarisation (IP) survey, along with previous soil and rock chip sampling and drilling.

The Company has prioritised the planned drill holes with the first 23 holes (2,700m) to test four
target areas at Mogoyafara South (Figure 1).

Initial drilling has commenced at the “Viper Zone” at Mogoyafara South. The Viper Zone has not
been previously drilled.

This zone occurs to the west of the existing resource areas at Mogoyafara South and may
represent a significant parallel zone of potentially higher grade gold mineralisation. The target
area is well defined by an IP chargeability high anomaly and a coincident gold-in-soil anomaly.
Float rock chip samples from the Viper Zone are the highest in the area (up to 27.7 g/t gold) and
outcropping quartz veins have returned values of 6.9 g/t gold.
The Sepola Project covers 300km2 and is located in the highly prospective Kedougou-Keneiba
greenstone belt in western Mali. It lies approximately 40km southeast along strike from the
Sadiola and Yatela gold mines (greater than 16Mozs of gold) and 40km northwest along strike
from the Loulo gold mine (greater than 12Mozs of gold) (Figure 2).

The second phase of drilling at Sepola is not expected to be completed prior to the onset of the
rainy season in Mali, when the Company halts all exploration activities (usually at the end of June),
however significant progress is expected to be achieved before month-end.

NZOG (New Zealand Oil & Gas Ltd) advises that technical evaluation has indicated that the Tui SW-2 well has not found a commercially significant oil accumulation.

Wireline logging is continuing. However, following evaluation of the previously reported oil shows at the top of the Kapuni F sands, the Operator has advised that an economic oil accumulation is not present at the Tui SW-2 well location.

Tui SW-2 is located in mining licence PMP 38158 in the offshore Taranaki Basin, to the southwest of the producing Tui field.

Upon completion of wireline logging operations, a 7 inch liner will be run so that the well can be suspended for possible future gas injection.

Immediately following completion of operations at Tui SW-2, the drilling rig Kan Tan IV will move a few kilometres to the northeast to drill the Kahu-1 well. The prospectivity of Kahu-1 is not affected by the results of Tui SW-2.- Web Site


NORWEST ENERGY (NWE)

Newsletter

Despite the turmoil of the European financial crisis and the proposed Resources Super Profits Tax, Norwest remains focused on developing shareholder value. As you know, our focus has been on two geographic regions - the northern Perth Basin in Western Australia and the Wessex Basin in Southern England. That focus has not faltered throughout this period, nor will it going forward.
Over the past 12 months Norwest has made a concerted effort to develop its communication process with you through ASX announcements as and when appropriate. As you will see by this newsletter we intend to add a further means of communication. norwesterly will be a more direct and conversational communication with shareholders, and will bring news items to shareholders attention as well as pertinent information other than compliance ASX disclosures.
Each edition of norwesterly will also have a special focus. In this first edition the topic is unconventional gas, specifically SHALE GAS, and what it potentially means to Norwest.
We hope you find norwesterly informative and we welcome any feedback. We will endeavour to where possible answer your questions.... - Web Site

RAM RESOURCES (RMR)

Investor Update

Australian resources company Ram Resources Limited (ASX: RMR)
(“Ram” or “the Company”) has entered into an agreement to acquire up to
100% of the Motzfeldt multi-element (Ta, Nb, Zr U, REE) project located in
the Gardar Province of Southern Greenland.

MOTZFELDT MULTI ELEMENT PROJECT
In 1987 the Greenland-Danish Geological Survey (GEUS) estimated a mineralised
zone of 200-500 million tonnes at Motzfeldt with average grades between 1,320
and 1,480 parts per million (“ppm”) Nb and 110-130 ppm Ta. Within the larger
mineralised zone, GEUS identified areas of higher grade at Anomaly 4 (estimated
30 million tonnes) and Anomaly 5 (estimated 30 million tonnes) and designated
them as priority targets. These target areas are considered to be Exploration
Targets according to the JORC Code as there is currently insufficient information to
define a Mineral Resource, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the
determination of a Mineral Resource.
Ram believes that there is excellent potential to improve upon the conceptual target
with further exploration. Further drilling will be a priority for the 2010 field season.

TERMS OF ACQUISITION
Ram will acquire an initial 51% of the Motzfeldt project by issuing to the vendors
150 million fully paid ordinary shares (at an issue price of 3cents), together with 150
million listed options to acquire shares at 3 cents, expiring 30 March 2012.

Ram may progressively move to 80% ownership by funding exploration and
development to A$25 million over 6 years and the payment of A$3 million to the
vendors. The final 20% may be acquired for A$50 million plus 25% of the amount
whereby an independent valuation exceeds A$50 million (if any).
In addition to issuing shares for the initial interest, Ram may be required to issue up
to a further 100 million ordinary shares if the Company outlines an Inferred Mineral
Resource greater than 100 million tonnes in the first two years.
The acquisition is subject to regulatory approval in Australia and Greenland, the
approval of Ram shareholders, and the parties entering into formal documentation.

It is expected that all necessary approvals will be in place by the end of July 2010.

Tindalo Operations Update

Kairiki Energy Limited (“Kairiki”) has been advised by Nido Petroleum Limited (ASX: NDO), the Operator of SC54A, of the following production information relating to the Tindalo-1 Extended Well Test (EWT) for the period through to 14th June 2010.
The cumulative production as measured in the FSO from the commencement of testing on 30th May 2010 to 00.00 hours on 14th June 2010 is as follows

Gross Fluid produced - 62,092 bbls
Oil produced - 56,708 bbls
Water produced - 5,384 bbls

  • Production rates have been varied by the Operator during this period to obtain data for reservoir management purposes. The field is currently being produced at a restricted gross fluid rate of approximately 5,000 - 6,000 bbls/day as the production processing system is not yet fully operational.
  • Final commissioning of the production processing system involves the installation and testing of the oil-in-water metering. Once in place, produced water can be separated from oil and the oil then exported to the FSO. Commissioning is expected in the coming days thereby allowing the well to be operated at its optimal production rate thereafter.
  • Samples of recovered water are currently being analysed to determine its origin (that is, water introduced during the drilling and completion process or formation water), and the Operator has advised that it will be providing updates on the EWT in due course. - Web Site

Prairie Downs Metals Limited (“Prairie” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce an agreement with Ivernia Inc (TSX:IVW) (“Ivernia”) that will accelerate exploration and development of the Company’s flagship Prairie Downs Base Metals Project (“the Project”).

Under the terms of the agreement Ivernia can earn an option to acquire a 60% interest in the Project for a payment to Prairie of $10 million in cash or shares of Ivernia by investing a minimum of $3 million dollars in exploration over the next 18 months. Of this $3 million Ivernia has agreed to invest a minimum of $2 million in exploration within 12 months.

Upon Ivernia acquiring a 60% interest in the Project, Ivernia and Prairie would then form an unincorporated Joint Venture with Ivernia having the right to increase its 60% interest in the Project to 80% by sole funding a further $5 million in exploration.

Ivernia is an international base metals exploration, development and mining company with existing lead mining operations in Western Australia that at full production could produce approximately 2% of the total world lead mine supply.

Ivernia’s commitment to the Project endorses the Company’s view of the potential for the discovery of a significant zinc-lead deposit. The exploration program and expenditure by Ivernia has the potential to rapidly advance the exploration and development of the Project and deliver significant value for Prairie’s shareholders. - Web Site

Sole Risk Exploration Drilling in TL/2 & TP/7(4) by Apache

TL/2
The operator, Apache Oil Australia Pty Ltd ("Apache"), has advised that the Bath-1 well
which was drilled by Apache on a sole risk (100%) basis has reached Total Depth. The
well did not encounter significant hydrocarbons in the exploration objective, but as
prognosed, did encounter oil in the shallower secondary objective which is the oil
bearing reservoir of the existing Taunton discovery, and these results will be
incorporated into the existing evaluation. The well has now been plugged and
abandoned as planned.

TP/7(4)
Pan Pacific Petroleum NL (“PPP”) through its wholly owned subsidiary Pan Pacific
Petroleum (SA) Pty Ltd is a participant in the TP/7 permit in the offshore Carnarvon
Basin, Western Australia. Apache, the Operator of TP/7(4) recently proposed the
Laurel-1 exploration well for drilling. As in the case of Bath-1, PPP evaluated the
Laurel-1 opportunity and determined that it did not meet PPP’s risk-reward criteria
and hence PPP elected not to participate.
Apache has advised that the Ocean Shield drilling rig is now on location, and drilling of
Laurel-1, which will also be drilled by Apache on a sole risk (100%) basis has commenced.
Under the TP/7(4) Joint Operating Agreement, non-participating joint venture
partners retain the right to participate in a successful discovery subject to back-in penalties.
As PPP is not participating in Laurel-1, PPP will not be releasing regular drilling reports
regarding this well. - Web Site


PAN PACIFIC PETROLEUM (PPP)

Tui SW-2 exploration drilling update

The Operator, AWE Limited, advises that wireline logging is still in progress at the Tui SW-2 exploration well.

Wireline evaluation of the previously reported oil shows in the top of the F Sand has established that an
economic accumulation of oil is not present at the Tui SW-2 location. Upon completion of wireline logging
operations the 7" liner will be run so that the well can be used for possible future gas injection.

The Tui South West prospect is located in mining licence PMP 38158 in the offshore Taranaki Basin and
is adjacent to the producing Tui oilfield.

Kahu-1, to the east of the Tui oilfield, will be drilled immediately following Tui SW-2. - Web Site

Positive Lithium Carbonate PFS and New Exploration Target

Reed has released an announcement today relating to it's Mt Marion Lithium Project.

Highlights are:
Independent consultants, Hatch, have completed a Pre-feasibility Study into the processing of lithium concentrates to battery-grade lithium carbonate.

The preferred case Net Present Value is around US$400 million based on various key commercial and operating assumptions. Using a 12% discount rate the project would deliver an Internal Rate of Return of around 68%.

China and Malaysia have been identified as the preferred options for the location of the lithium carbonate plant based on operating and capital costs and taxation regimes.

There has been strong interest from domestic and Asian parties seeking toll-conversion and standalone lithium carbonate joint venture arrangements.

A new exploration target of an additional 10 – 15 Mt of 1.1 – 1.4% Li2O has been identified.- Web Site

SOLE RISK EXPLORATION DRILLING IN TL/2 AND TP/7 BY APACHE

TL/2

The operator, Apache Oil Australia Pty Ltd, has advised that the Bath-1 well which was drilled by Apache on a sole risk (100%) basis has reached Total Depth. The well did not encounter significant hydrocarbons in the exploration objective but as prognosed, did encounter oil in the shallower secondary objective which is the oil bearing reservoir of the existing Taunton discovery, and these results will be incorporated into the existing evaluation. The well has now been plugged and abandoned as planned.

TP/7

Tap is a participant in the TP/7 permit in the offshore Carnarvon Basin, Western Australia. The Operator of TP/7 (Part 4), Apache Oil Australia Pty Ltd, recently proposed the Laurel-1 exploration well for drilling. This well did not meet Tap’s risk-reward criteria and hence Tap elected not to participate.

Apache has elected to drill this well on a sole risk (100%) basis. Under the TP/7 (Part 4) joint operating agreement, Tap retains the right to participate in a successful discovery subject to paying a back-in penalty.

Apache has advised that the Ocean Shield drilling rig is now on location and drilling of the Laurel-1 exploration well in TP/7 (Part 4) has commenced.

Tap is making this release to ensure that there is no misunderstanding of Tap’s position should reports of drilling activity in the TP/7 (Part 4) permit arise in the industry or media.

As Tap is not participating in the well, no drilling reports will be released to the market by Tap.

WALL STREET

Stocks faltered in the last hour of trading Monday after investors gave in to anxiety about Europe's economy - after a downgrade of Greek bonds. Moody's Investors Service cut Greece's government-bond ratings by four notches to Ba1, which is a junk-grade rating.

The Dow Jones industrial average erased an early gain of 118 points to end down 20. The Standard & Poor's 500 also fell slightly, while the Nasdaq composite rose less than a point.

The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies rose 3.27, or 0.5 percent, to 652.27.

Stocks began the day higher following a report that industrial production in the 16 countries that use the euro grew more than expected in April. That boosted confidence that Europe could solve its debt problems and pushed the euro above $1.22 for the first time since June 4.

Winning stocks outpaced losers by 3 to 2 on the New York Stock Exchange. Consolidated volume rose to 4.5 billion shares from 4.1 billion Friday.

Oil prices jumped Monday, riding on the back of stronger stocks and foreign exchange. Crude oil for July delivery rose $1.34 to settle at $75.12 a barrel Monday.

July N.Y. copper closed up 880 points at 299.20 cents Monday. Prices closed nearer the session high on more short covering and fresh bargain-hunting buying interest.

Comex gold futures Monday closed modestly lower and near mid-range on some more profit-taking pressure and price consolidation after prices last week hit a fresh all-time high. Investor risk appetite broadened some more Monday as world stock markets rallied, which did take away some safe-haven buying interest from the gold market. August Comex gold closed down $6.70 an ounce at $1,224.50. Spot gold last traded down $4.50 at $1,223.50.
