      Top Kupfer Player – Jetzt zum Schnäppchenpreis einsteigen

      Riesiges Kupfer/ Silbervorkommen im Afrikanischen Kupfergürtel
      Niedrige Marktbewertung von 10. Mio. CAD bei 3 Mio. Barmitteln
      Hanna Mining aktueller Kurs 0,17 Euro (4LH)- Kurspotential 200 %
      Im Zuge der Baisse bei Explorationsgesellschaften sind auch die Aktien von Hanna Mining arg unter die Räder gekommen und bieten nun eine einmalige Einstiegsgelegenheit. So legte Hanna Mining von Februar bis Mai satte 100% Kursgewinn aufs Parkett, die allesamt in den letzten Wochen wieder verloren wurden. Bei aktuell 0,25 CAD ist der Boden vom Februar wieder erreicht und ein erneuter Spurt bis 0,50 CAD also ca. 100% kurzfristiges Potential steht an.

      Kupfer ist einer der wichtigsten Rohstoffe auf der Welt und besonders in allen Infrastrukturprojekten genutzt. Dies wird auch die Nachfrage in den nächsten Jahren stützen. Nach Aussage von Rio Tinto wächst die globale Nachfrage nach Kupfer mindestens zehn Jahre lang mit 4 % pro Jahr. Dies dürfte auch den Kupferpreis in naher Zukunft wieder auf die Rekordpreise von Ende letztem Jahr bringen.

      Die Liegenschaft wurde seit 1962 durch verschiedene Großkonzerne immer wieder untersucht, beispielsweise von Gencor (jetzt BHP Billiton), Anglo-American, Anglovaal, Newmont, DeBeers, US Steel Corporation und Delta Gold.

      Diese Arbeiten wurden zu einer Zeit durchgeführt, als die Kupferpreise niedrig waren und die Infrastruktur nicht so gut ausgebaut war wie heute. Heute steht eine modernere Infrastruktur zur Verfügung und die Kupferpreise sind deutlich höher. Das Gebiet verfügt zudem über eine hervorragende Infrastruktur mit Strassen und Stromanbindung. Die über 4000 Km2 große Liegenschaft hat enorm hohe Kupfergrade bis zu 2,6%. Insgesamt wurden 6 Zonen definiert, in welchen in den nächsten Monaten weitere 10.000 Meter Bohrungen durchgeführt werden sollen.

      Politisch stabiles Land:

      Als früheres britisches Protektorat wurde die Republik Botswana im Jahr 1966 unabhängig. Das Land verfügt über eine stabile Mehrparteiendemokratie und ist das Land auf dem afrikanischen Kontinent, dass ohne Unterbrechungen am längsten demokratisch regiert wurde.

      Fazit:


      Bei Kupfer sehen wir in den nächsten Jahren weiter erhebliches Potential, ausgesuchte Kupferwerte sollten auf jeden Fall in ein Rohstoffdepot aufgenommen werden. Der zentralafrikanische Kupfergürtel beherbergt ca. 30% der weltweiten Kupferreserven und ist fast ein Garant für erfolgreiche Bergbauprojekte. Hanna Mining ist auch von der Bewertung ausgesprochen günstig und hat zudem noch reichlich Liquidität auf dem Konto. Wir würden hier bei den aktuellen Ausverkaufskursen von 0,25 CAD bzw. 0,17 Euro einstiegen und sehen ein Potential von 200% auf Sicht von 24 Monaten.

      Hana Mining buys stake in Botswana copper/silver project - Mining Weekly, JOHANNESBURG - Jul 14, 2009

      - Esmarie Swanepoel -
      www.miningweekly.com/article/hana-mining-buys-stake-in-botsw…

      "JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – TSX-listed exploration company Hana Mining has agreed to buy an initial, indirect 70% interest in five prospecting licences in Botswana, comprising the Ghanzi copper/silver project.

      The company reported on Tuesday that it had concluded a share purchase agreement with the shareholders of Stellent, a privately held corporation located in Botswana, which was the holder of the licences.

      The agreement also granted Hana Mining the exclusive right to purchase the remaining 30% share in Stellent.

      The Ghanzi project has an inferred resource of 2,9-billion pounds of copper and 51,1-million ounces of silver.

      "I am very pleased for the company shareholders and for Stellent, as this represents the conclusion of a process of negotiation which began in 2007, with our securing initial rights to explore the ground at Ghanzi, and it also reflects the value growth in the resource which we have unlocked over that time,” said Hana Mining CEO Marek Kreczmer.

      Under the agreement, Hana Mining would pay a cash consideration of $200 00, and issue 166 666 common shares to Stellent. A further 666 666 share purchase warrants would be issued, each warrant entitling the purchase of one additional common share, for a period of 24 months, at a price of C$0,32.

      To acquire an additional 20% share in Stellant, Hanna Mining could make a cash payment of $9-million is to be paid upon the completion of a positive bankable feasibility study, the sale of all the issued common shares of Hana Mining to a third party, or at the company’s election.

      For the remaining 10%, Hanna Mining would have to issue four-million purchase warrants, each entitling the purchase of one additional common share, at a price of C$2,00 a share.

      The Ghanzi project is located in northwestern Botswana. The area contains near surface sediment-hosted copper/silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative strike length of over 16 km.

      Significant infrastructure is planned, or is in place in the region, including a new 800 MW power plant in Botswana, which would provide power for the project and the paved trans-Kalahari highway, which runs from Namibia to South Africa, passes within 15 km of the property. "

      Also Explorationspotenzial dürfte IMO noch ein Haufen vorhanden sein. Das wichtigste dürften in der nächsten Zeit eigentlich erstmal so einige anstehende Studien sein(Umwelteinflüsse, 1ste Einschätzung zur Wirtschaftlichkeit, Infrastruktur, Energie...).

      Entgegen meiner ursprünglichen Erwartung sieht das inzwischen IMO gar nicht so uninteressant aus(geschätztes Explorationspotenzial haben sie von 5,5 -15,5Mrd. Pfund Kufer +80 -240Mio Oz Silber angegeben):

      In Sachen Explorationspotenzial nochmal, aus der letzten MD &A -dazuzusagen ist allerdings, dass es mit den Finanzen derzeit nicht rosig aussieht:

      "Exploration Update:
      On June 1, 2009, the Company announced that it had completed an independent National Instrument (“NI”) 43-101- compliant inferred resource estimate for its Ghanzi copper-silver deposit in Botswana. The estimate for the global resource is 2.9 billion pounds of copper and 51.5 million ounces of silver from 163.5 million tonnes. This resource is based on a 0.30-per-cent Cu cut-off and averages 0.82 per cent Cu and 9.8 grams per tonne (g/t) Ag. This follows along from the Company’s successful drilling program conducted in 2008 where a total of 14,986 meters of diamond
      drilling in 98 holes has been completed as well as 6,644 meters in 50 holes of RC drilling and 8,169 meters in 90 holes of percussion drilling. Over 2,000 samples are currently in the laboratory waiting to be assayed. Drilling in 2008 focused on the Banana Zone, Zones 3, 5, 6 and 8 and various soil anomalies. Folding of the prospective horizon has resulted in repetition that collectively comprises more than 600 kilometers of strike length. This is an exceptionally large system and less than 5% of the system has been drill tested so far. Further drilling is planned for the third quarter. ..."

      Finde ich auf jeden Fall gut, dass sie erstmal so einen hohen Cut-off wählen -bringt denke ich oft nichts zu versuchen den letzten Krümel noch rauszuquetschen, v.a. auch, wenn man dann sieht, dass die Gehalte dadurch stark ansteigen, die Resource aber nur moderat abfällt, 2Mrd. Pfund zu 1,51%, +noch kleine Anteile Silber, sieht erstmal ganz nett aus -dürfte schon recht förderlich für die "Economics" sein:

      Letter from the CEO-Hana Mining Ltd. - Aug 26, 2009
      www.hanamining.com/s/NewsReleases.asp?ReportID=361250&_Type=…

      "Dear Shareholder:

      This year represents a very important milestone for Hana Mining Ltd. (the "Company"), in that we have issued our very first NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate on our Ghanzi copper-silver property in Botswana, initially announced on June 23, 2009 (see initial press release dated June 1, 2009) and finalized on August 4,2009. While the full technical report is available on SEDAR, I wanted to write all shareholders directly to draw your attention to a few key findings.


      Current Resource Size
      An independent engineering firm, GeoLogix Mineral Resource Consultants (Pty.) Ltd. ("Geologix") of Potchefstroom, South Africa had available a total of 407 drill holes from Company drilling programs and from prior work. This drill hole inventory represents detailed exploration on only 16 kilometers or 3% of the overall mineralized horizon on the property. Numerous other mineralized targets are evident, although they are less explored at this time. GeoLogix considered 303 of these drill holes in their modeling, and applied 225 hole assay results and Datamine software to arrive at an inferred resource on the property. That resource, at varying Cu cut-off grades, was estimated by GeoLogix as follows:




      From the table, you can see how the various copper cut-off grade assumptions influence both overall resource tonnage and average resource copper grades. We do not yet know what cut-off will prove optimum from an economic perspective. This parameter is influenced by many factors, including:

      + Total resource tonnage,

      + Detailed open pit mine planning work (including strip ratios, recoveries, etc.), and

      + Initial and long term copper price levels.

      Our neighbor in Botswana, Discovery Metals, has adopted a 0.6% cut-off for their tonnage and resource discussions while we have been using a more conservative 0.75% cut-off. We continue gathering information to support the most appropriate cut-off figure to apply long term.


      Characteristics of the Deposit
      Through our drilling work we have found the deposit to be fairly predictable in its behavior. Mineralization thickness ranges from 4 to 15 metres and dip is 5◦ to 60◦ from horizontal. Mineralization thickness varies by zone, and as the table below illustrates, is impacted by cut-off grade as well.




      Within these resource zones we have found significant areas of mineralization where the grade (at a 0.75% cut-off) is considerably above 1.51% Cu. The best grades (+2% Cu) typically are in areas where the original rock porosity was best developed or where the mineralized 'blanket' is folded, and copper has been remobilized into thicker lenses. These high grade, +2% Cu "pockets" offer the opportunity to locate starter pits and achieve better overall economics than the average numbers would otherwise suggest. Early economics are further aided by the fact that the top 30 metres of overburden is a soft Kalahari sand, easily stripped prior to mining. The size and nature of these high grade Cu pockets is illustrated by the following table:




      By analyzing the resource with the application of higher cut-off grades, the location of the high grade pockets is more evident. The north fold closure, along the northern end of the Banana Zone, currently exhibits the largest high grade tonnage at 11 MT of +2% Cu, and 20 MT of +1.7% Cu. This high grade area occurs over 1,000 metres of surface strike length and extends to 200 metres depth, making it an attractive early target for surface recovery.

      Note also, our resource data shows we have high grade areas in each of the segments of the Banana Zone and in the other two Zones where we have a 43-101 compliant resource figure as well. We have only a few data points throughout the property on mineralization below 200 metres, but what we do have indicates higher grades and thicknesses at depth.

      Detail on the Banana Zone and Zone 3, with the existing (and future) drilling sites identified, is shown in Figure 1 below.

      Figure 1. Banana Zone and Zone 3 Diagram


      Next Steps and Work Plan
      The Banana Zone, combined with Zone 3, is our most prospective area based on our NI 43-101 resource and historic drill results, and will constitute the focus of the Company's drilling work during 2009, and much of 2010. The Company has outlined 20 km of prospective strike length in these two zones that form our next set of drill targets (see areas identified in Figure 1 above), supported by soil anomalies and percussion drilling work.

      Our Q3/Q4 work plan focuses on this area as follows:

      + Percussion drilling work (6,000 metres), to specify additional RC/diamond drilling targets,

      + RC/diamond resource drilling (12,000 metres),

      + Completion of a water study, and

      + Initiation of a metallurgy study focused on recoveries, milling, smelting and refining behaviors for our resource.

      We intend to have enough new assay results from the 2009 drilling campaign to update our NI 43-101 resource estimate in Q1 2010, still at an inferred designation. For more information on our strategy and plans for the future, you can go to our website (www.hanamining.com) and download our latest PDF, "Investor Briefing-August 2009".

      We remain very excited about the prospects for the Ghanzi Project as the property is part of a known mineralized system that potentially represents the largest sediment-hosted, open-pittable copper-silver deposit in Africa.

      Also, wie ja schon gesagt, mein Eindruck zu HMG hat sich jetzt eher komplett, ziemlich ins positive, gewandelt. Das primäre Problem dürfte m.E.n. erstmal sein, dass sie in absehbarer Zeit einen Batzen Geld brauchen -da sollte man erstmal schauen, wie es in der Sache weitergeht. Ansonsten, sie sagen ja selber, dass sie "one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources" nachweisen wollen -das scheint mir ehrlich gesagt realistisch/im Bereich des Machbaren, dazu scheinen die weiteren Begleitumstände auch nicht schlecht auszusehen, sofern die von der Regierung, eh, geplante Infrastruktur auch gebaut wird:

      Hana Mining Ltd. Reports Positive Results From a Preliminary Groundwater Investigation, Supporting Ghanzi Project - Sep 15, 2009
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/Hana-Mining-Ltd-TSX-VENTURE…

      "September 15, 2009 (Vancouver, British Columbia). Hana Mining Ltd., (TSX-V: HMG) (Frankfurt: 4LH) is pleased to announce results from a desk-top hydrogeology study, produced by Namib Hydrosearch of Windhoek, Namibia, investigating known and potential groundwater sources in proximity to the Company's Ghanzi copper-silver project in Botswana. Key findings of the study are:


      + The region exhibits favourable geology to host large aquifers,

      + There are numerous active water-producing aquifers in the vicinity of the Ghanzi property, supporting local towns and agricultural/grazing activities,

      + Two groundwater sources have been identified as likely project water sources; the Karoo Supergroup and Ghanzi Group aquifers, and three specific groundwater resource targets have been established within those known aquifers for more specific exploration,

      + Within the Karoo Supergroup, the Bodibeng Sandstone and Ecca Group aquifers to the northwest of the Ghanzi property offer the most promising targets, and

      + The Ecca Group aquifer (within Karoo Supergroup) has recently been shown to yield sufficient water volumes to support mining activity approximately 50 kilometers to the west of the Ghanzi property.


      The regional groundwater investigation, conducted by Namib Hydrosearch, included a comprehensive review of published groundwater investigation reports pertaining to the general area surrounding the Ghanzi property. The team also reviewed borehole yield data and water quality information provided by the Botswana national groundwater database, as well as from Hana's resource drilling boreholes, which frequently produce water. Water quality sampling on open holes is continuing. From this work, potentially useful groundwater aquifers can be identified and assessed, with the objective of securing a sustainable 10,000 m3/day water source to support future mining operations. The study identified three target areas for further research and active testing, which is planned for Q1/Q2 2010.

      Namib Hydrosearch has been providing technical and project management hydrology services for mineral exploration, groundwater, and environmental projects in Africa for 19 years. The company has done extensive work in the public sector with Namibian government agencies, and also operates in Angola, Botswana, Malawi and Zambia.


      Hana Mining's President, Peter Wilson, commented as follows:

      "We are pleased with the early results of our groundwater investigation work. We have been aided by the considerable amount of local knowledge and prior investigative work that has been done to study groundwater in and around our property. From our investigation we now have multiple prospective targets for more concentrated investigation and borehole drilling, which will drive the next phase of our water program, to begin early next year."


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari copper belt in northwestern Botswana. The country of Botswana is considered by the Fraser Institute Annual Survey of Mining Companies 2009 country ranking study to offer the most attractive mineral exploration and investment climate in Africa. The Ghanzi property covers 2,200 sq. km., and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative strike length of over 16 kilometres. This favourable geology extends over the entire strike length of 600 kilometres Hana Mining recently released results of it's first NI 43-101 resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project (see press release dated June 1, 2009), announcing an inferred resource of 2.9 Billion lb. of copper and 51.1 Million oz. of silver from 163.5 million tonnes. The resource is based on a 0.30% Cu cutoff grade, and averages 0.82% Cu and 9.8 g/t Ag.

      The project will benefit from contemplated rail/power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The planned 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant continues to advance, with US$825 million project funding secured in May 2009, and key supply contracts awarded. Currently, our project is served by the paved trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      Hana Mining is focused on demonstrating that the Ghanzi property represents one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources.

      Hana Mining Announces New President and COO to Drive Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project; Mr. Sullivan was responsible for development and commissioning of Kinross Gold's World-Class Kupol Mine in Russia - Oct 1, 2009
      www.hanamining.com/s/NewsReleases.asp?ReportID=366011&_Type=…

      "October 1, 2009 (Vancouver, British Columbia). Hana Mining Ltd., ("HMG" or the "Company") - (TSX-V: HMG) (Frankfurt: 4LH) is pleased to announce the appointment of James A. ("Jim") Sullivan as the new President and Chief Operating Officer ("President/COO") of the Company, effective immediately. Mr. Peter Wilson, the outgoing President, will remain as a Director and a member of the management team of the Company, where he has served since 2007.

      Mr. Sullivan brings a wealth of world-class mineral resource and project development experience to the Company. Mr. Sullivan comes to HMG from Kinross Gold Corporation ("Kinross"), where he was Regional VP-Russian Operations, managing the Russian minerals portfolio that Kinross acquired with its acquisition of Bema Gold Corporation ("Bema Gold") in March of 2007. While at Bema Gold, as VP Russian operations, Mr. Sullivan and his team were responsible for the exploration and subsequent development of the US$750 million Kupol Gold mine located in Far East Russia, which produced over 490,000 gold equivalent ounces in the first six months of 2009, its first full year of production. The Kupol mine development represented a challenging construction task, hampered by poor infrastructure, tough climatic conditions and significant size and complexity---all managed on time and on budget. Prior to the Kupol project, Mr. Sullivan also held responsibility for the exploration, development and operation of the Julietta gold/silver mine, also in Far East Russia.

      Hana Mining's new President/COO, Jim Sullivan, commented as follows:

      "I am excited to join Hana Mining in this development leadership role, having watched this project grow over the last 6 months, and having recently personally visited the Ghanzi property for a first-hand look at the asset. I came away impressed with Botswana, impressed by the infrastructure in place and planned for the area, impressed by the government people I met, and impressed by the potential size and quality of the copper-silver resource that is being generated by the Company's work on the property."

      Hana Mining's CEO, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "I am personally very pleased to welcome Jim to the Company in this key position on Hana's senior management team. Jim's leadership role in bringing to production Kinross Gold's world-class Kupol Gold mine provides exactly the kind of proven development capability we need at this time to advance our business plan. His extensive career experience developing and commissioning large mineral projects in remote locations is a perfect fit with our strategic intent to prove up and develop the Ghanzi Project, and specifically the Banana Zone, into one of Africa's premier copper-silver mining assets.

      I would also like to thank Peter Wilson for his numerous contributions in the President's role over the last two years. Peter was particularly effective in his efforts to source funding for the Company from the time it first focused on the Ghanzi Project, and I value his continued assistance to the Company as a member of the Board and the management team."

      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari copper belt in northwestern Botswana. The country of Botswana is considered by the Fraser Institute Annual Survey of Mining Companies 2009 country ranking study to offer the most attractive mineral exploration and investment climate in Africa. The Ghanzi property covers 2,200 sq. km., and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative mineralized strike length of over 13 kilometres. This favourable geology extends over the entire strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining recently released results of it's first NI 43-101 resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project (see press release dated June 1, 2009), announcing an inferred resource of 2.0 Billion lb. of copper and 34.9 Million oz. of silver contained in 60.4 million tonnes of ore. This resource estimate assumes a 0.75% Cu cutoff grade, and averages 1.51% Cu and 17.98 g/t Ag. The Banana Zone represents 40.7 million tonnes of this total resource (67%), and is the current focus of the Company's drilling efforts and development focus for 2009 and 2010.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of high grade (+2%) Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly in the fold nose at the northern end of the zone, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades, thereby improving early year cash flows and overall project economic returns.

      The project will benefit from contemplated rail/power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The planned 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant continues to advance, with US$825 million project funding secured in May 2009, and key supply contracts awarded. Currently, our project is served by the paved trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      Hana Mining is focused on demonstrating that the Ghanzi property represents one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources.

      Hana Mining RC Drilling Intersects 2.11% Cu and 30.7 g/t Ag Over 7 Metres in new Section of South Limb of Banana Zone - Oct 29, 2009

      Highlights of recent drilling results:

      + All four of these RC drill holes represent additional strike length and potential resource tonnage that was not a part of the previous NI 43-101 resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project (including the Banana Zone), announced in June 2009.

      - Three of the four reported drill holes extend mineralized strike length in the northeastern portion of the South Limb by 200 metres, an area that until now only had percussion hole results,

      - The fourth reported drill hole extends mineralized strike length in the New Discovery area by another 200 metres to the southwest, building on the results in this area announced last week (press release dated October 21,2009), and

      - These four holes now bring the mineralized strike length total for the Banana Zone to 16.2 km.(!!)

      + Two RC drills continue working the Banana Zone and we are expecting assay results on another 12 completed holes in the South Limb soon, and

      + Higher grade mineralized zones with mineable thicknesses were evident in two of the three holes in the 65,000 section of the South Limb, an early indication that this section may offer an opportunity for a starter pit, as have other sections in Banana Zone.

      auf S.15 ist der Großteil der Planung bis 2014/15, wenn´s denn etwa aufgeht, zu sehen. In 2010 sind wie geagt 99,000Bohrmeter geplant, wofür allerdings noch ein Haufen Geld benötigt wird -&wofür(Finanzen) wohl u.a. auch der neue Mann geholt wurde. Separates Ziel für die Banana Zone 80 -100Mt, Inferred(Ende ´10) &eine PEA bis dahin dazu, die IR soll zuätzlich verstärkt werden. Tonnagen LT Ziel mit 400MT+ angegeben.

      Highlights of recent drilling results:

      + These seven holes increase the mineralized strike length for the Banana Zone by 1000 metres, to a total 17.2 km, now 11% (1,700 metres) greater than the strike length reflected in the current NI 43-101 resource estimate,

      + Three RC drills are now working the Banana Zone (one in the South Limb) and we are expecting assay results on another 4 completed holes in the South Limb soon. The other two drill rigs are working other sections of Banana Zone, targeting high priority new resource areas between prior drill programs,

      + Higher grade mineralized zones with mineable thicknesses were evident in three of the seven holes in this section of the South Limb, continuing to support the possibility of a high-grade starter pit in this section, similar to other sections in Banana Zone, and

      + Copper and silver assay results in this area of the South Limb continue to show significant mineralization, good thickness, and consistency along strike, down to a maximum vertical depth of 150 metres.

      Also wenn das Kursniveau in etwa gehalten werden könnte, dürften zumindest die nächsten nötigen PPs langsam wieder richtig erträglich werden. Von 18Mio in den nächsten 18Monaten ist die Rede, 2,5Mio waren´s ja zuletzt, würden wir noch über 16,5Mio C$ sprechen -was momentan auch genau so viele Aktien wären.

      Hana Mining reveals one of Africa's largest silver and copper districts; Canadian junior, Hana Mining, reckons its Ghanzi copper/silver project in Botswana is on part of a belt which will rival Zambia's Copperbelt in size - Mineweb, MAUN - Nov 24, 2009

      - John Chombah -
      www.mineweb.com/mineweb/view/mineweb/en/page36?oid=93503&sn=…

      "Canada's junior explorer Hana Mining CEO Mareck Kreczmer believes his company has on its hands part of one of the largest copper and silver deposits in Africa that can rival the Zambian copper belt. :eek: Speaking during a tour of the exploration site north west of Botswana near the town of Maun, he said Hana has identified rich deposits of copper and silver over an area of roughly 2,200 sq km. Australian junior, Discovery Metals, is exploring the neighbouring Boseto deposit and has come up with a similar sized resource, and there is huge potential for the sizes of both projects to be extended as exploration continues.

      The Hana area consists of five license blocks which contain "widespread sediment hosted copper silver mineralisation over a 600km cumulative strike length" said the company.


      "The area is an extension of the Zambian copper belt that continues into Namibia", said Kreczmer. He added that former explorers only found small deposits of the minerals in different areas and did not connect the dots together to see the bigger picture. Previous explorers were Anglo American, Gencor (now BHP Billiton), Anglovaal, Newmont, DeBeers, US Steel Corporation and Delta Gold.

      Kreczmer said that the company had released results of its first NI 43-101 resource estimate for the Ghanzi copper-silver project, which showed an inferred resource of 2.0bn lb of copper and 34.9m oz of silver from 60.4m tonnes. This resource estimate according to Hana is based on a 0.75% Cu cutoff grade and averages 1.51% Cu and 17.98 g/t Ag. Discovery's Boseto deposit is also put at 60.4 m tones grading 1.4% Cu and 19.5 g/t Ag.

      Mineralization at Ghanzi is classified as a sediment-hosted copper-silver deposit similar to the Central African Copper Belt of Zambia and DRC. Kreczmer said it is akin to the Kupferschiefer, in Poland and Germany. Kuperschiefer mineralization occurs to a vertical depth of at least 700 meters and is open. Kreczmer said he is planning on having an open pit mine which will be easier to mine and less costly.


      During the tour, Kreczmer and project manager, Jacques Janse Van Rensburg focused on showing the Banana zone which represents 40.7m tonnes of the total resource defined to date. They both said that this zone is the current focus of the Company's drilling efforts and development focus for 2009 and 2010.

      Hana said that to date a total of 15,000metres of diamond drilling in 98 holes has been completed as well as 6,600metres in 50 holes of RC drilling. Of the 98 diamond drill holes, that have been completed, Hana said 96 have intersected copper-silver mineralisation. In addition, of the 50 RC holes completed, 43 have intersected mineralisation.

      Asked about environmental issues, with the project close to the Kalahari Game Reserve, Kreczmer said there will be an environmental consultant from Denver, USA who will look into the environmental impact of the project. He will also look at what's best from a social environmental point of view so as to work with local communities and see how they can benefit with lesser damage and/or losses. The environmental consultant has previously worked for the World Bank. Kreczmer also added that he would like to work with the community and see how best to help them.

      In a bid to empower the local people and transfer skills, Hana has employed three local geologists. Kreczmer told Mineweb the company is planning on employing three new geologists who will also be Botswana nationals.

      noch nachgereicht -was halt auch ganz günstig aussieht ist, dass die über der Mineralisierung liegende Schicht zu einem bedeutenden Teil(etwa 30m ab der Oberfläche) aus "Kalahari Sand" besteht, was das für diesen Teil ungleich leichter machen dürfte abzubauen:

      die Ergebnisse sind jetzt, zum 1sten mal glaube ich, nicht wirklich so dolle(recht niedrige Gehalte, dafür um einiges mächtiger). Mineralisierungen scheinen momentan nach S/SW deutlich abzunehmen, wobei in die Richtung noch erheblich weiter exploriert wird &zu hoffen ist, dass sie da nicht, schon, Ihr Ende finden:

      Hana Mining RC Drilling Intersects 1.84% Cu and 23.6 g/t Ag Over 7 Metres in South Limb of Banana Zone and Doubles Mineralized Strike in New Area of Banana Zone - Dec 08, 2009

      Highlights of recent drilling results:


      + These 16 RC holes increase the mineralized strike length in the Banana Zone by 1600 metres, to a total 20.4 km, now 32% (4,900 metres) greater than the strike length reflected in the current NI 43-101 resource estimate.

      + Five new holes in the South Limb (section 60,000) extend mineralized strike length by 600 metres, to 2.4 km, and

      + Eleven new holes in the SW Fold (sections 30,000 & 35,000) extend mineralized strike length by 1000 metres, to 2.4 km.

      + RC assay results in the South Limb show copper/silver mineralization approximately 1.8 km south of previously announced results, opening up a new section in this area.

      + This new section is open along strike and down dip, and will be further defined by 12 additional holes completed to the south (assays pending), and

      + The RC rig in this section (60,000) is now moving north along strike to infill drill the 1.5 km separating these latest results from previously released mineralization results in section 65,000.

      + RC assay results in the SW Fold continue to be lower grade than mineralization defined in other areas of the Banana Zone, with more low angle faulting, however there are some attractive differences to the mineralization in this area:

      + The drill program confirms shallow mineralization and dip, with generally wider intercepts, suggesting a bulk tonnage open pit mine scenario, and

      + The copper minerals in this area are malachite and chalcocite, suggesting the possibility of a low-cost heap leaching and solvent extraction (SX-EW) alternative to copper recovery. Assay results on 19 additional completed holes are pending.


      "This is our fourth drill results announcement for the South Limb, and each one has continued to evidence mineralization along the defined trend, this time 1.8 km south of previous RC drilling. The continuity of copper/silver mineralization in this area is very exciting, and we expect to have results from 12 additional RC holes to add to this section (60,000) very soon. The latest results of drilling in the SW Fold are consistent with the first batch of results announced November 24th. They begin to evidence a different type of copper/silver resource in the SW Fold---where these greater mineralized widths and low strip ratios could prove amenable to larger scale mining, coupled with the potential for lower cost heap leaching and solvent extraction (SX-EW) technologies for metal recovery. We intend to drill this area to define the resource size and deposition, with this operational alternative clearly in mind. All of the potential mineralization in both of these areas represents new strike and tonnes we can consider in our next 43-101 resource estimate." ...

      "I am personally most pleased to welcome Fred to the management team at HMG. Fred has an ideal background to contribute the engineering and technical mine development leadership that we now require to transform our geologic copper-silver resource through feasibility into an economically mineable reserve. His recent experience, including Kupol, included responsibilities associated with metallurgy, mine engineering, construction cost estimation, infrastructure design/engineering and environmental permitting---exactly the tasks we have ahead for our resource and mining concept development work, for development of a PEA, and later a pre-feasibility study for the Ghanzi Project."


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari copper belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,200 sq. km., and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative mineralized strike length of 25.7 kilometres. This favourable geology extends over the entire strike length of 600 kilometres Hana Mining recently released results of it's first NI 43-101 resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project (see press release dated June 1, 2009), announcing an inferred resource of 2.0 billion lb of copper and 34.9 million oz of silver from 60.4 million tonnes. This resource estimate is based on a 0.75% Cu cutoff grade, and averages 1.51% Cu and 17.98 g/t Ag. The Banana Zone represents 40.7 million tonnes of this total resource (67%), and is the current focus of the Company's drilling efforts and development focus for 2009 and 2010.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of high grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly in the fold nose at the northern end of the zone, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These +2% Cu pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from contemplated rail/power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead (to port) is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. A planned 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant continues to advance, with US$825 million project funding secured in May 2009, and key supply contracts awarded. Currently, our project is served by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.


      Hana Mining is focused on demonstrating that the Ghanzi property represents one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources. "

      Hana Mining RC Drilling in Banana Zone Intersects 1.21% Cu and 16.8 g/t Ag Over 15 Metres in South Limb - Jan 20, 2010
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/Hana-Mining-RC-Drilling-Ban…

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Jan. 20, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd., ("HMG" or the "Company") - (TSX VENTURE:HMG) (FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce completion of 23 new RC drill holes at its Ghanzi sediment-host copper-silver project in Botswana. Results on 8 of these holes are shown below. The 23 new holes extend total mineralization by 2000 metres along strike for two areas in the Banana Zone; the South Limb (section 60,000), and the Southwest Fold Closure ("SW Fold") (sections 30,000 to 45,000). See figure 1 for locations.


      Highlights of recent drilling results:

      + Of these 23 new RC holes, 19 holes returned significant mineralization, increasing mineralized strike length in the Banana Zone by 2000 metres, to a total 22.4 km, now 44% (6,900 metres) greater than reflected in the current NI 43-101 resource estimate.

      -South Limb results (8 holes) extend mineralized strike by 1000 metres, to 3.4 km, and

      - SW Fold results (15 holes) extend mineralized strike by 1000 metres, to 3.0 km.


      + The latest South Limb results partially close out one of several strike length gaps that existed between previous drill results. The remainder of this particular gap of 1,300 metres will be addressed by 9 pending holes.

      - We plan to continue to close gaps along strike in this area, which comprises 15 km total length, and remains open to the north and south, as well as down-dip, and

      - Our current drill results location shows an increase in grade with depth, along with substantial thickness in mineralization.


      + We now have assay results on a total of 36 RC holes in the SW Fold, with 4 additional assays pending. These results, including the 15 most recent holes, show consistently lower grade mineralization than we have found in other areas in the Banana Zone. Summarizing grade results on our most recent 15 holes:

      - Four holes show a mineralized intercept of 4+ metres, at 0.75% Cu or better, and

      - Nine holes show a mineralized intercept of 4+ metres, at 0.5% Cu or better.


      + Based on the drill results we see in the SW Fold, we do not believe this area will generate resource tonnage at comparable grades to what we have achieved elsewhere in the Banana Zone. Relatively thick mineralization, shallow dip, and thin overburden are attractive attributes to the findings here, but are not expected to overcome Cu grade issues at our current Cu cut-off assumptions.

      - The possibility of heap leach and solvent extraction techniques (SX-EW) exists here, based on the presence of malachite and chalcocite copper minerals, but requires more economic and metallurgy study than has been done to date, and

      - We now believe other areas of the Banana Zone are more prospective, and will refocus the drill rig working this area onto other targets, specifically in the 45,000 section moving north towards the South Flank.

      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "I am pleased that we continue to meet the objectives of the drill program we initiated in August of this year; specifically, to confirm mineralization along strike in several new areas in the Banana Zone, in fill gaps between known mineralized areas, and ultimately give us an expanded drill hole inventory with which we plan to revise our NI 43-101 resource soon. These latest results build on previous findings, and continue to evidence continuity of copper/silver mineralization along the defined trend in the South Limb.

      We have presented results on 27 RC holes in the South Limb since October, and intend to complete the remaining 1.6 km of open strike in this drill campaign that will allow us to demonstrate a continuous mineralized strike of 10.7 km between sections 55,000 and 65,000.

      The results on our latest drilling in the SW Fold are generally consistent with earlier results, announced in November and December 2009, indicating this to be an area of lower grade mineralization. This area could have development significance for us, depending on whether we discover other concentrations of similar, leachable material at grades that would make an SX-EW facility attractive. However, the Banana Zone still contains extensive untested strike length, and we have determined our best course to be to focus elsewhere, and leave the SW Fold for future study, in the context of a larger, zone-wide heap leach economic study.

      Hana Mining RC Drilling in Banana Zone Intersects 1.76% Cu and 26.5 g/t Ag Over 7 Metres in the North Limb, and 1.15% Cu and 15.1 g/t Ag Over 9 Metres in South Limb - Feb 16, 2010

      Highlights of recent drilling results:

      + Of these 15 new RC holes, 12 holes returned significant mineralization, increasing mineralized strike length in the Banana Zone by 2,300 metres, to a total 25.3 km, now 63% (9,800 metres) greater than reflected in the current NI 43-101 resource estimate.

      - North Limb results (7 holes) extend mineralized strike by 1,000 metres, to 5.4 km, and

      - South Limb results (8 holes) extend mineralized strike by 1,300 metres, to 8.6 km.


      + These latest North Limb results mark a return to an area of the Banana Zone we haven't tested and reported on since May 2009.

      - Grades for both copper and silver are quite good, and we are seeing assays approaching or exceeding 2% Cu grades with intercept thickness that signals a priority development opportunity,

      - We are drilling to close an 1,800 metre gap in this sector now, with assay results on 5 completed holes pending, and

      - Mineralization remains open along strike to the south west, and down dip.


      + The latest South Limb results now close a strike length gap in this sector and generate a total continuous mineralized strike length of 6,800 metres in sectors 55,000 and 60,000.

      - Drilling is progressing to the north now in sector 60,000 to close another 1,600 metre gap between this sector and sector 65,000, and remains open down dip, and

      - Assay results on 5 completed holes are pending. ...


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "Our drill results in this northern end of the North Limb (sector 10,000) are very good, and represent a return to an area where we had excellent results previously. We are working a current strike length gap of 1,800 metres that remains in this sector now.

      We continue to close gaps in the South Limb between previously released drill results, with the objective of achieving a continuous tested (and mineralized) strike length that connects results in sector 55,000 through sector 65,000 totaling 10.7 km. We are currently drilling off the final 1,600 metre strike length gap in this sector.

      Despite the fact that the summer months do bring rain to the property, our drill rig performance has remained good. We continue to generate approximately one RC hole completion per 36 hour period, per rig, and we currently have 3 RC rigs operating on the property. In addition, we have 1 diamond drill rig conducting metallurgical drilling, and a 5th multipurpose drill rig for delineation drilling that will arrive on site soon. This multipurpose drill will RC drill down to the mineralized zone, and then switch to core drilling through mineralization to give us undisturbed samples." ...

      Hana Mining durchteuft bei RC-Bohrungen in der Zone Banana 1,76% Cu und 26,5 g/t Ag auf 7 m im North Limb sowie 1,15% Cu und 15,1 g/t Ag auf 9 m im South Limb.

      16. Februar 2010 (Vancouver, British Columbia) Hana Mining Ltd., ("HMG” oder das "Unternehmen”) - (TSX-V: HMG) (Frankfurt: 4LH) freut sich, den Abschluss der Bohrungen in 15 neuen RC-Bohrlöchern auf dem in Sedimentgestein eingebetteten Kupfer-Silber-Projekt Ghanzi in Botswana bekannt zu geben. Die Ergebnisse aus 12 dieser Löcher sind nachfolgenden aufgelistet. Die 15 neuen Löcher erweitern die Mineralisierung in zwei Bereichen der Zone Banana, dem North Limb (Abschnitt 10.000) und dem South Limb (Abschnitt 60.000) um insgesamt 2.300 Meter entlang des Streichens. Standorte siehe Abbildung 1.


      Es folgen die wichtigsten Ergebnisse aus den jüngsten Bohrungen:

      • In 15 dieser 12 neuen RC-Löcher wurde eine bedeutende Mineralisierung festgestellt. Dadurch wird die mineralisierte Streichenlänge in der Zone Banana um 2.300 Meter auf insgesamt 25,3 km erweitert. Das sind 63 % (9.800 Meter) mehr als in der aktuellen NI 43-101-konformen Ressourcenschätzung ausgewiesen.

      o Die Ergebnisse im North Limb (7 Löcher) erweitern die mineralisierte Streichenlänge um 1.000 Meter auf 5,4 km

      o und die Ergebnisse im South Limb (8 Löcher) erweitern die mineralisierte Streichenlänge um 1.300 Meter auf 8,6 km.

      • Mit diesen jüngsten Ergebnissen aus dem North Limb kehren wir zu einem Bereich der Zone Banana zurück, den wir seit Mai 2009 nicht weiter erkundet und auch nicht darüber berichtet haben.

      o Die Kupfer- und Silbergehalte sind ziemlich gut und der Kupfergehalt der Proben liegt mittlerweile im Bereich von 2 % oder darüber; auch die Mächtigkeit der Abschnitte deutet auf ein vorrangiges Zielgebiet für die Erschließung hin.

      o Wir führen derzeit Bohrungen durch, um eine 1.800 Meter breite Lücke in diesem Abschnitt zu schliessen. Die Analyseergebnisse zu den Proben aus 5 fertiggstellten Löchern stehen noch aus.

      o Die Mineralisierung ist in südlicher und westlicher Richtung entlang des Streichen sowie im Neigungswinkel offen.

      • Mit den jüngsten Ergebnissen bei South Limb kann eine Lücke entlang des Streichens in diesem Abschnitt geschlossen und damit eine durchgehende Mineralisierung auf einer Streichenlänge von insgesamt 6.800 Meter in den Abschnitten 55.000 und 60.000 hergestellt werden.

      o Die Bohrungen werden nun in nördlicher Richtung im Abschnitt 60.000 fortgesetzt, um dort eine weitere 1.600 Meter grosse Lücke zwischen diesem Abschnitt und Abschnitt 65.000 zu schliessen. Die Mineralisierung ist im Neigungswinkel nach wie vor offen.

      o Analyseergebnisse zu den Proben aus 5 fertiggstellten Löchern stehen noch aus.

      Unter folgendem Link finden Sie die Tabellen und Abbildungen dazu: www.irw-press.com/dokumente/NRGhanziUpdateFeb1610_DEUTSCH.pdf


      Marek Kreczmer, CEO und Chairman von Hana Mining, meinte dazu:

      "Unsere Bohrergebnisse in diesem nördlichen Randbereich des North Limb (Abschnitt 10.000) sind sehr gut. Wir kehren damit zu einem Bereich zurück, wo wir in der Vergangenheit schon ausgezeichnete Ergebnisse erzielen konnten. Wir bearbeiten derzeit eine Lücke von 1.800 Metern Streichenlänge, die in diesem Abschnitt noch besteht.

      Wir werden auch im South Limb noch weitere Lücken schließen, die zwischen den bereits veröffentlichten Bohrergebnissen liegen. Ziel ist es, eine durchgehende (und mineralisierte) Streichenlänge von 10,7 km zu evaluieren, die wir dann mit den Ergebnissen aus Abschnitt 55.000 bis Abschnitt 65.000 verbinden können. Im Augenblick bebohren wird die letzte in diesem Abschnitt verbliebene Lücke auf 1.600 Meter Streichenlänge.

      Obwohl es in den Sommermonaten auf dem Grundstück regnet, ist die Leistung unserer Bohrgeräte konstant gut geblieben. Wir werden auch weiterhin mit jeweils einem Bohrgerät ungefähr ein RC-Loch pro 36 Stunden-Intervall fertigstellen. Derzeit arbeiten wir auf dem Grundstück mit 3 RC-Bohrgeräten. Außerdem kommen 1 Diamantbohrgerät für metallurgische Bohrungen und ein 5. Mehrzweck-Bohrgerät für Abgrenzungsbohrungen zum Einsatz. Mit diesem Mehrzweck-Bohrgerät, das demnächst angeliefert wird, stellen wir eine RC-Bohrung bis hinunter zum mineralisierten Bereich her. Anschließend wird dann innerhalb der Mineralisierung auf eine Kernbohrung gewechselt um sicherzustellen, dass die entnommenen Proben nicht verunreinigt sind."


      Qualifizierter Sachverständiger und Qualitätskontrolle/Qualitätssicherung

      Joseph Arengi, M. Sc., P. Geo., Vice President für Exploration bei Hana Mining, hat als qualifizierter Sachverständiger gemäß NI 43-101 die in dieser Pressemeldung enthaltenen Fachinformationen geprüft.

      Das Unternehmen hat ein dem branchenüblichen Standard entsprechendes Qualitätssicherungs- und Qualitätskontrollverfahren durchgeführt. Für die Analyse der RC-Bohrproben wird eine 35-40 kg schwere Probe in 1-m-Abständen aus dem Zyklonabscheider entnommen. Anschließend werden die Proben im Verhältnis 75/25 aufgespalten. 75 % der Probe wird archiviert und die restlichen 25 % zur Analyse verbracht. Alle Proben werden doppelt eingesackt, versiegelt und in sicheren Holzkisten ins Scientific Services Laboratory in Kapstadt in Südafrika verbracht. Dem Probenstrom werden auch Standard-, Doppel- und Leerproben beigefügt. Zur Analyse des Gesamtgehalts an Cu, Ag, Pb und Zn wird ein Säurenaufschluss und eine Atomabsorptions-Spektroskopie ("AAS") durchgeführt.Im Fall von löslichen Kupfer wird zur Analyse eine Kaltlaugung mit 5 %iger Schwefelsäure und anschließend eine AAS verwendet. Im Falle der Mo-Analyse kommt das XRF-Verfahren zum Einsatz (vollständige Matrixkorrektur).


      Über das von Hana Mining betriebene Kupfer-Silber-Projekt Ghanzi in Botswana

      Das Projekt Ghanzi befindet sich im Zentrum des Kupfergürtels Kalahari in Nordwest-Botswana. Das Grundstück Ghanzi erstreckt sich über 2.169 km² und beinhaltet in Sedimentgestein eingebettete Kupfer-Silber-Lagerstätten, die sich über eine mineralisierte Streichenlänge von insgesamt 29,8 km ausdehnen. Diese günstigen geologischen Eigenschaften sind auf der gesamten Streichenlänge von 600 km anzutreffen. Hana Mining hat im Juni 2009 die Ergebnisse einer ersten NI 43-101-konformen Ressourcenschätzung für das Projekt Ghanzi veröffentlicht. Darin werden von insgesamt 60,4 Millionen Tonnen 2,0 Milliarden Pfund Kupfer und 34,9 Millionen Unzen Silber an abgeleiteten Ressourcen ausgewiesen. Für diese Ressourcen wurde ein Cutoff-Gehalt von 0,75 % Cu und ein Durchschnittsgehalt von 1,51 % Cu und 17,98 g/t Ag angenommen. Die Zone Banana, die 40,7 Millionen Tonnen (67 %) der gesamten Ressourcen beherbergt, stand 2009 im Mittelpunkt der Bohr- und Erschließungsaktivitäten des Unternehmens. Auch 2010 werden sich die Arbeiten auf diesen Bereich konzentrieren.

      In der Zone Banana finden sich bestimmte Bereiche mit einer hochgradigen Kupfer- und Silbermineralisierung, vor allem im Gebiet um New Discovery und an der Spitze der Verwerfung am nördlichen Ende der Zone. Hier bietet sich die Chance, Startschächte anzulegen und erste Mengen mit überdurchschnittlichen Erzgehalten zu fördern. Diese Kupferbestände mit +2% befinden sich in der Regel im Rahmen der entsprechenden "open pit depth parameters" und bieten eine günstige Gelegenheit, den ersten Cashflow und die Erträge im Zuge der Erschließung insgesamt aufzubessern.

      Das Projekt wird vom geplanten Ausbau der Infrastruktur (Bahn, Strom), aber auch von der Nähe zu Siedlungsgebieten mit potenziellen Arbeitskräften profitieren. Derzeit wird eine Machbarkeitsstudie (mit Unterstützung der Weltbank und der Regierungen in Botsuana und Namibia) durchgeführt, um eine Bahnverbindung zwischen Botsuana und dem namibischen Hafen Walvis Bay an der Atlantikküste fertigzustellen. Der am nächsten gelegene Endbahnhof (Hafen) ist in Gobabis in Namibia und liegt in ungefähr 550 km Entfernung von unserem Grundstück. Der geplante Ausbau des von der Regierung betriebenen Kraftwerks Moropule auf 600 MW schreitet voran; im Mai 2009 konnten finanzielle Mittel in Höhe von 825 Millionen US$ für die Projektfinanzierung gesichert und wichtige Lieferverträge abgeschlossen werden. Derzeit erfolgt die Zufahrt zu unserem Projekt über den befestigten Trans-Kalahari Highway, der in 15 km Entfernung am Grundstück vorbeiführt.

      Hana Mining ist darum bemüht nachzuweisen, daß sich auf dem Grundstück Ghanzi eines der wichtigsten zukünftigen Kupfer-Silber-Vorkommen in Afrika befindet.

      Through our drilling work we have found the deposit to be fairly predictable in its behavior. Mineralization thickness ranges from 4 to 15 metres and dip is 5 to 60 from horizontal. Mineralization thickness varies by zone, and is impacted by cut-off grade assumptions as well. The Banana Zone averages 5.1 metres thickness at a 0.5% cut-off, Zone 5 - 11.2 metres and Zone 6 - 4.5 metres.

      Within these resource zones we have found significant areas of mineralization where the grade (at a 0.75% cut-off) is considerably above 1.51% Cu. The North Fold of the Banana Zone shows 1000 km of strike length over 2% Cu (based on 1.5% Cu cut-off) and Zones 5 & 6 results show another 1,200 km at these grades, based on limited drilling. These high grade, +2% Cu pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters. They offer the opportunity to locate starter pits which would improve early cash flows and achieve better overall project economics
      than the average copper grade numbers would otherwise suggest.
      Early economics are further aided by the fact that the top 30 metres of overburden is a soft Kalahari sand, easily stripped prior to mining.

      The Banana Zone represents 40.7 million tonnes and 67% of the total NI-43-101 estimated resource. This we believe to be our most prospective potential development area, and it has been the focus of the Company’s drilling and development efforts for all of 2009. The Banana Zone, along with Zone 3, will remain the primary focus for drilling and development activity for 2010.

      ...
      On August 26, 2009, the CEO of Hana Mining wrote a letter (the “Letter”) to shareholders (posted on SEDAR), to discuss certain elements of the Ghanzi Project resource estimate results, and the opportunity the Company sees in defining high grade +2% Cu “pockets” within the Banana Zone that could be ideal locations for starter pits in a development phase. Typical mineralization thickness was reviewed in the Letter as well as overburden characteristics in the Kalahari relevant to surface mining economics. The Letter outlined next steps for drill activity through the remainder of 2009 and 2010, and indicated the Banana Zone, combined with Zone 3 (“Banana/Zone 3”) will be the focus of the Company’s resource development activity during that timeframe.

      On September 15, 2009, the Company reported positive results from a preliminary groundwater investigation in the area surrounding and including the Ghanzi Project. The desk-top hydrogeology study, produced by Namib Hydrosearch of Windhoek, Namibia, offered the following key findings:

      + There are numerous active water-producing aquifers in the vicinity of the Ghanzi property, and the region exhibits favourable geology to host large aquifers, and

      + Two groundwater sources were identified as likely water sources for the Ghanzi Project, and three specific groundwater resource targets have been established within those known aquifers for more specific exploration. ..."

      Hana Mining RC Drilling in Banana Zone Intersects 1.90% Cu and 17.4 g/t Ag Over 7 Meters - Mar 04, 2010

      Highlights of recent drilling results:

      + Of these 9 new RC holes, 8 holes returned significant mineralization, increasing mineralized strike length in the Banana Zone by 1,400 metres. Current total tested strike length for the Banana Zone is now 28.5 km, representing 44.5% of the total estimated 64.0 km strike length in this zone.

      - South Limb results (5 holes) extend mineralized strike by 800 metres, and

      - North Limb results (4 holes) extend mineralized strike length by 600 metres.


      + These latest South Limb results extend strike length and generate a total continuous tested and mineralized strike length of 7,400 metres.

      - Drilling continues to progress to the north east, still in sector 60,000 to close a remaining 800 metre strike length gap, and remains open down dip, and

      - Assay results on 5 completed holes are pending.


      + The latest North Limb results test both strike length and dip continuity to the south west in this sector.

      - We continue drilling to close what is now a 1,000 metre gap in this sector, with assay results on 4 completed holes pending, and

      - Mineralization remains open along strike to the south west, and down dip.


      ...

      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      Our continued progress on this drill campaign is very encouraging. The Ghanzi project mineral deposition remains highly predictable, which certainly aids in the process, and we continue on track to complete our 85,000 metre drill program objective by year end. In February, we hosted seven independent analyst groups at the project site and presented the HMG story at the Livingstone Mineral Conference in Zambia, with positive reaction. Also in February, HMG senior management attended the Mining Indaba in Cape Town, South Africa, where we met with a number of banks and metal trading groups. I found the sentiment at this important regional mining industry gathering to be decidedly upbeat, based on strong metals price forecasts and China's continued favourable impact on global metals consumption. Analyst coverage of the Company is growing. Our message is clearly getting out to the investor community, and I remain very pleased with the response." ...

      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari copper belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 sq. km., and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 33.4 kilometres. This favourable geology extends over the entire strike length of 600 kilometres Hana Mining released results of it's first NI 43-101 resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project in June 2009, announcing an inferred resource of 2.0 billion lb of copper and 34.9 million oz of silver from 60.4 million tonnes. This resource estimate is based on a 0.75% Cu cutoff grade, and averages 1.51% Cu and 17.98 g/t Ag. The Banana Zone represents 40.7 million tonnes of this total resource (67%), has been the focus of the Company's drilling and development efforts for 2009, and will remain the primary focus for 2010.

      Hana Mining is focused on demonstrating that the Ghanzi property represents one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources. "

      Resourcenupdate dürfte ziemlich interessant werden:

      Hana Mining RC Drilling in Banana Zone Intersects 1.63% Cu and 39.5 g/t Ag Over 5 Metres, Including 6.59% Cu and 153.3 g/t Ag Over 1 Metre, in North Limb - Mar 30, 2010

      Highlights of recent drilling results:

      + All of the 12 completed holes returned significant mineralization, increasing mineralized strike length in the Banana Zone by 1,200 metres. Current total tested strike length for the Banana Zone is now 32.7 km, representing just over half (51.1%) of the total estimated 64.0 km strike length in this zone. Results for some of these holes along the tested horizon are pending.

      - North Limb results (3 holes) extend mineralized strike by 400 metres, and

      - South Limb results (9 holes) extend mineralized strike length by 800 metres.


      + These latest North Limb results progress strike length and dip continuity testing to the southwest.

      - Assay results demonstrate the Ghanzi resource capable of generating mineralized pockets at very high grades, including spectacular copper (6.59%) and silver (153.3 g/t) grades on a one metre intercept at the bottom of one hole (HA-176), and

      - The RC rig has closed the gap to the southwest. We have assay results pending on 7 completed holes in sector 10,000 and on 8 completed holes in sector 15,000.


      + The latest South Limb results table reports on 7 holes, over two areas which are roughly 15 kilometres apart (sectors 45,000 and 60,000).

      - Mineralization on one hole (HA-169) in sector 45,000 returned 1.32% Cu and 13.5 g/t Ag over 4 metres, as we now move northeast through this sector, and

      - Two RC drills continue to extend strike and add resource in the South Limb, both closing gaps with previous results. The resource remains open along strike and down dip. We have assays pending on 6 holes in sector 60,000, 5 holes in sector 45,000 and 2 holes in sector 70,000.

      ...

      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "Our latest drill hole results continue to show consistency of mineralization in the Ghanzi resource, and mark an important threshold, in that we have now drill-tested over 50% of the Banana Zone's total 64 kilometre strike length.

      Our drill program is expanding: we now have five drill rigs operating on the property. Three rigs are currently drilling for new resource along strike, while the fourth and fifth rigs will be employed on an infill drilling program to upgrade the resource from inferred to measured & indicated. Infill drilling progress will be accelerated by utilizing an RC rig to drill pilot holes and a diamond rig to complete the hole through mineralization. Other key development work is also underway. Drilling for metallurgical sampling has been completed and samples are at the assay lab now. A hydrogeology study is underway, to identify an adequate sub-surface water source for the project. Environmental work is also anticipated to commence in Q2, based on RFP's issued and responses under review.

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - April 21, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd., ("HMG" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce the completion of an updated independent National Instrument NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for its Ghanzi sediment-hosted copper-silver project in Botswana. The new resource estimate represents a substantial increase in tonnes, at approximately the same copper grades as the previous June 2009 estimate.

      The updated resource estimate was prepared by GeoLogix Mineral Resource Consultants (Pty) Ltd. of Potchefstroom, South Africa ("GeoLogix"). This estimate updates the previous resource estimate (HMG news release June 1, 2009) by GeoLogix, reflecting 8 months of drilling exclusively in the Banana Zone, and a new section at the southwestern end of the Banana Zone referred to as the Chalcocite Zone (sectors 35,000 to 45,000, see Figure 1 for location). Zones 5 and 6 were not drilled and consequently the resource estimates remain unchanged.


      Highlights of the updated resource estimate:

      + The total Ghanzi Project April 2010 updated NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate now contains 3.9 billion lbs of copper and 62.1 million oz of silver, specifically:

      - 93.2 Mt at 1.50% Cu and 18 g/t Ag, at a 0.75% cut-off, containing 3.08 B lbs Cu, plus

      - 83.8 Mt at 0.46% Cu and 3.58 g/t Ag, at a 0.30% cut-off, containing 850 M lbs Cu in the Chalcocite Zone.


      + Our objective of doubling the size of the total mineral resource estimate for the Banana Zone has been met by this latest resource estimate.

      - Banana Zone (excluding the Chalcocite Zone) tonnage and contained copper has increased 80.7% over the previous estimate, with Cu grade unchanged at 1.47% Cu,

      - Banana Zone plus the Chalcocite Zone tonnage has increased 193.5%, and the contained copper estimate has increased 95% over the previous estimate, and

      - Banana Zone plus the Chalcocite Zone contained silver estimate has increased 96.1% over the previous estimate.


      Table 1 below provides a summary of the updated April 2010 mineral resource estimate for the entire Ghanzi Project, and a comparison to the original June 2009 estimate:

      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "This updated resource estimate is a very positive step for the Ghanzi Project, and culminates an 8 month drill program that has demonstrated the predictable nature of mineralization on the property. We focused exclusively on the Banana Zone, and have approximately doubled the tested strike length and the corresponding contained copper there since our last resource estimate.

      Copper grades in the Banana Zone have remained identical to previous estimates, at 1.47% Cu. We have maintained our 0.75% cut-off in this estimate, although ongoing detailed mine planning is expected to result in a lower cut-off grade, which will increase the metal resource."


      Chalcocite Mineralization:

      The Chalcocite Zone, which contains over 0.85 billion lbs. of copper, has been treated as a separate resource in our tables, although it abuts the southern end of the Banana Zone. The Chalcocite Zone is primarily chalcocite and malachite, as opposed to the bornite and chalcopyrite found elsewhere on the Ghanzi property. The mineralization is much shallower, flatter, and typically thicker (up to 80 metres - see Figure 2), and will be amenable to bulk mining methods with low strip ratio and lower cost processing techniques. In fact, we see the grades & shapes quite comparable to other deposits in Southern Africa.

      Our drilling program continues to be focused on the untested sections of the Banana Zone and the Chalcocite Zone.
      We have mining engineers developing a mining plan and metallurgists working on copper recovery methods and options for both the sulfide and oxide mineralization in the main Banana Zone as well as the chalcocite-malachite mineralization in the Chalcocite Zone. Environmental and hydrogeology work has also begun this quarter."


      Discussion of Results:

      The Company has focused on expanding the resource in the Banana Zone since the last resource estimate was completed and filed on SEDAR in June 2009. Almost all of the drilling has been reverse circulation (RC) drilling, with a small amount of diamond core drilling applied to metallurgy study work.

      Drill results through most of the sectors in the Banana Zone continued to generate results consistent with prior drilling---bornite and chalcopyrite mineralization and copper grades that have left the Banana Zone Cu grade unchanged at 1.47% Cu at a 0.75% Cu cut-off.

      Drill results in sectors 35,000 to 45,000 (see Figure 1 for locations)—what we now call the Chalcocite Zone - produced a different type of mineralization - predominantly chalcocite and malachite. Characteristics include, shallow depth to mineralization, shallow dip, and thicker widths of copper bearing minerals uniformly distributed. Mineralized thickness of 25-40 metres is fairly common, extending up to nearly 80 metres in certain areas. See Figure 2 for a cross section of mineralization in this Zone.

      While this area demonstrated a copper grade (0.46% Cu at 0.3% cut-off), it also offers an opportunity for potential low cost bulk mining. The chalcocite/malachite mineralogy also offers the potential for treatment by proven, low cost copper leaching methods, reducing capital costs compared to conventional milling/flotation facilities. Metallurgy work is currently underway. The resource remains open to the southwest, and currently is estimated at 83.6Mt containing 850 M lbs of Cu.

      A diagram of the mineralized horizon in the Chalcocite Zone can be seen in Figure 2
      (http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/hat2.pdf).

      Our updated NI 43-101 resource estimate now totals an estimated 3.9 B lbs of contained copper, based on the addition of sulphide mineralization from Banana Zone, Zone 5 and Zone 6 at a 0.75% cut-off, plus chalcocite mineralization from the Chalcocite Zone (sectors 35,000 to 45,000) at a 0.30% cut-off.

      Preparation of the Updated Mineral Resource Estimate:

      This updated Ghanzi Project resource estimate is based on a total of 304 drill holes (41770.6 metres), drilled on 100-200 m spacing between holes.

      Resource modeling was carried out using a three-dimensional solid geological model for each copper/silver bearing prospect, and grade estimation for blocks within a prospect using assay sample composites within the same prospect. Geological solids were created by wireframe models delineating the various lithological and grade contacts of each prospect in the drillholes. The Kalahari sand has been wireframed as a discrete layer. The model did not go below the 800 m elevation, maximizing depth below surface to 200-225 m. All geological modeling work was done by GeoLogix with Datamine software.

      Based on the geological confidence, the integrity of the data, the spatial continuity of the mineralization as demonstrated by the variography, and the quality of the estimation, the entire resource has been classified as an inferred resource.
      An updated NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate on the Ghanzi Project will be available within 45 days on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.


      Conference Call Wednesday, April 21st at 8:30am:

      A conference call for parties interested in learning more about the Ghanzi property has been set up for Wednesday, April 21st at 8:30 a.m. Pacific Standard Time (11:30 a.m. Eastern Standard Time and 5:30 p.m. in Botswana). The moderators for the conference call are Marek Kreczmer (CEO) and Jim Sullivan (President).

      The conference call may be accessed by dialing toll-free 1-877-240-9772 in Canada and the United States, or 1-416-340-8527 in the Toronto area and internationally or can be listened to in real time at www.hanamining.com.

The archived playback will be available until May 5, 2010 11:59 p.m.


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control:

      Joseph Arengi, M. Sc., P. Geo., Vice President of Exploration for Hana Mining is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      The Company has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program. For diamond drill samples, core is logged, split by sawing, and sampled by Company staff at site. For RC drill samples, a 35-40 kilogram sample is collected from the cyclone discharge at 1 metre intervals. RC samples are then split 75/25; 75% of the sample is archived and the other 25% provides material for analysis. All samples (both core and RC) are double bagged, sealed and transported in secured wooden crates and shipped to Scientific Services Laboratory in Cape Town, South Africa. Standards, duplicates and blanks are inserted into the sample stream. The analytical method for the total Cu, Ag, Pb, and Zn is acid digestion and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy ("AAS"). The analytical method for soluble Cu is 5% sulfuric acid cold leach followed by AAS. The analytical method for Mo assays is XRF (full matrix correction).


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 sq. km., and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 37.6 kilometres in all drilled zones. The copper bearing horizon extends over the entire strike length of 600 kilometres, thus only 6% of the total potential has been tested to date. Hana Mining released results of its second NI 43-101 resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project in April 2010, announcing an inferred resource as follows;

      + 3.08 billion lb Cu and 52.5 million oz Ag from 93.2 Mt, based on 0.75% cut-off grade, averaging 1.50% Cu and 18.00 g/t Ag, from Banana Zone, Zone 5 and Zone 6, and

      + 850 million lb Cu and 9.6 million oz silver from 83.6 Mt, based on a 0.3% cut-off grade, averaging 0.46% Cu and 3.58 g/t Ag, from the Chalcocite Zone.


      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of high grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly in sectors 25,000, 5,000 and 70,000 (see Figure 1), which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from contemplated rail/power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead (to port) is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. A planned 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant continues to advance, with US$825 million project funding secured in May 2009, and key supply contracts awarded. Currently, our project is served by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      Hana Mining is focused on demonstrating that the Ghanzi property represents one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources. "

      müsste vom C. "Morning Coffee" sein:

      "Hana Mining* (HMG : TSX-V : $2.26), Net Change: -0.01, % Change: -0.44%, Volume: 3,135,008
      Bananas over Banana! Hana Mining released a new Banana Zone resource estimate for its Ghanzi sediment-hosted copper-
      silver project in Botswana. The new inferred resource increased 80.7% to 74 mt at 1.47% copper and 19.44 g/t silver.

      Previous Banana Zone inferred resource was 40.7 mt at 1.47% Cu and 21.7 g/t Ag. This latest resource estimate successfully satisfied the company’s objective of doubling the size of the total mineral resource estimate for the Banana Zone. Given management’s objective, this new copper estimate was likely not a surprise to the market.

      However, given that the resource potential is much larger than the current 93 mt at 1.5% Cu & 18 g/t Ag resource estimate (including Zones 5 and 6 as well as Banana) such that the mining operations should be long life and expandable, and that Botswana offers probably the best investment climate in Africa, Hana will likely be of greater interest to larger mining companies. Potential suitors include: Quadra Mining (QUA), First Quantum Minerals (FM) and Equinox (EQN).

      Hana Mining Ltd. Announces Revisions to Arrangement for Spin-Out of New Hana Copper Mining Ltd. - May 25, 2010
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/Hana-Mining-Ltd-Announces-R…

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - May 25, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("the Company"), (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) further to the Company's new release dated January 21, 2010, the Company is pleased to announce that it has amended certain terms of the plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") with New Hana Copper Mining Ltd. ("New Hana") and Hana Mining Botswana (Proprietary) Limited ("Hana Botswana"), wherein the Company will spin-out Hana Botswana to New Hana.

      As previously announced, the Company will determine a date of record for the Arrangement, after receipt of all required regulatory, court, and shareholder approvals (the "Effective Date"). As of the Effective Date, every four (4) common shares of the Company will entitle the shareholders of record to receive one additional common share of New Hana, instead of every ten (10) common shares, as originally announced. It is anticipated that New Hana will then seek a stock exchange listing for its common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), and complete an equity offering to raise at least $3,000,000 up to a maximum of $5,000,000 to further develop the eleven (11) prospecting licenses held by Hana Botswana.
      Shareholders of the Company will receive the New Hana common shares, in addition to the common shares of the Company they already hold on the revised basis as set out above.

      The completion of the Arrangement is subject to the fulfilment of a number of prior conditions, including Exchange acceptance of the Arrangement and the listing of the New Hana common shares, the approval of the Arrangement by the shareholders of the Company by a special resolution of at least 2/3rds of the shares voted in person or by proxy at a general meeting held to consider the Arrangement, the approval of the Supreme Court of British Columbia, and the completion of the New Hana Financing. The Arrangement cannot close until all of these conditions precedent are met. There can be no assurance that the Arrangement will be completed as proposed or at all. Investors are cautioned that except as disclosed in the Information Circular to be prepared in connection with the Arrangement, and information released or received with respect to the Arrangement may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading in the securities of the Company should be considered highly speculative.

      It is anticipated that the general meeting of the shareholders of the Company to approve the Arrangement will be held sometime in July 2010. For further details concerning the Arrangement, investors are referred to the Company's earlier news release dated January 21, 2010.

Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on April 21, 2010, announcing an inferred resource of 3.9 billion lbs of copper and 62.1 million oz of silver from 177 million tonnes. This resource estimate is based on a 0.75% Cu cutoff grade, and averages 1.50% Cu and 18 g/t Ag from the Banana Zone and a 0.30% Cu cutoff grade, and averages of 0.46% Cu and 3.58% AG from the new Chalcocite Zone.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of high grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly in the New Discovery area and the fold nose at the northern end of the zone, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades.

      Hana Mining Expands Chalcocite Zone at Ghanzi Copper/Silver Project; New Drilling Increases Strike Length of Chalcocite Zone by 1 Km - Jun 03, 2010

      Highlights of recent drilling results:

      + Strike length for the Chalcocite Zone has been increased by 1 kilometer. The Chalcocite Zone, the Company's newly delineated and separate resource, currently contains over 0.85 billion lbs of copper.

      + None of these holes were used in the (April 21, 2010) NI 43-101 compliant inferred resource calculation.

      + All of the 10 completed RC holes returned significant mineralization, including step out holes:

      + HA 194-R: 37 metres of 0.39% Cu and 3.3 g/t Ag
      HA 195-R: 58 metres of 0.39% Cu and 3.2 g/t Ag
      HA 202-R: 35 metres of 0.40% Cu and 3.7 g/t Ag
      HA 207-R: 27 metres of 0.41% Cu and 0.4 g/t Ag
      HA 209-R: 33 metres of 0.47% Cu and 4.0 g/t Ag
      HA 211-R 30 metres of 0.43% Cu and 3.9 g/t Ag

      ...

      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented: "We are very excited with the results from the new drilling program on the Chalcocite Zone. The addition of 1,000 metres to the thick portion of the chalcocite mineralization significantly increases the size, and therefore the economic potential, of this bulk mine-able, and potentially leach-able, zone. The Chalcocite Zone is becoming an increasingly more significant component of the resources at the Ghanzi project while also providing Hana with production choices.An approximately 2000 metre drill program is planned later in the year to delineate the Chalcocite Zone resource to vertical depth of 200 metres."...

      Hana Mining Comments on Share Price-Drilling Continues - Jul 08, 2010
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/Hana-Mining-Comments-on-Sha…

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - July 8, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) (the "Company") announces that its recent share price is a result of market fluctuation only and that it is not aware of any material undisclosed information or corporate developments that would account for the price volatility. The Company is continuing its drilling program on the Banana Zone at its Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana and currently has eight drilling rigs in operation. Assay samples are currently undergoing testing and results will be made public upon completion. The Company is well funded and will continue to proceed with its drilling program and the ongoing engineering studies to assess the feasibility of the Ghanzi Project development.


      Recent drilling highlights include:

      + Mineralized strike length for the Banana Zone has been increased by 7 kilometres for a total of 44.3 kilometers. The Banana Zone, which contains 2.38 billion lbs of copper and over 45 million ozs of silver, at 0.75% copper cut-off, has a total strike length of 64 kilometres;

      + Drilling is progressing on schedule to complete 80,000 metres in 2010;

      + High grade intercepts include 2.68% Cu and 23.70 g/t Ag over 3 metres in hole HA-270-R and 2.32% Cu and 17.50 g/t Ag over 4 metres in hole HA-275-R as well as 1.34% Cu and 29.4 g/t Ag over 6.0 metres in hole HA-278-R;

      + The mineralization remains open along strike and at depth; and

      + The goal of drill testing the entire Banana Zone will be achieved in 2010.


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 sq. km., and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 49.2 kilometres. This favourable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on April 21, 2010, announcing an inferred resource of 3.9 billion lbs of copper and 62.1 million oz of silver from 177 million tonnes. This resource estimate consists of 73.5 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 19 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 13.4 million tonnes grading 1.7% Cu and 12 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 6.3 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 7 g/t Ag in Zone 6; all at a cut-off grade of 0.75% Cu. Also included is 83.6 million tonnes grading 0.46% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag at a cut-off grade of 0.30% in the Chalcocite Zone.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly in the Sectors 5000, 20000 and 65000 which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      Development Update:

      The following engineering activities are ongoing to fulfill the goal of completion of a PEA by Q4 2010:

      + Mine open pit modeling is being carried out using the April 2010 resource as a basis to define parameters to be used in the revised model to be completed after the 2010 drilling has been incorporated;

      + Metallurgical work is ongoing for the Banana Zone at Mintek in Johannesburg, and at Metcon Research in Tucson, Arizona;

      + Field work for water exploration has begun;

      + A Preliminary Environmental Impact Assessment (PEIA) has been filed with the Botswana Departmental of Environmental Affairs (DEA) in Gabarone. This filing is to formally begin the environmental permitting process and initiates interaction between Hana and the Botswana environmental regulators.


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 sq. km., and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 49.2 kilometres. This favourable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on April 21, 2010, announcing an inferred resource of 3.9 billion lbs of copper and 62.1 million oz of silver from 177 million tonnes. This resource estimate consists of 73.5 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 19 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 13.4 million tonnes grading 1.7% Cu and 12 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 6.3 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 7 g/t Ag in Zone 6; all at a cut-off grade of 0.75% Cu. Also included is 83.6 million tonnes grading 0.46% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag at a cut-off grade of 0.30% in the Chalcocite Zone.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly in the Sectors 5000, 20000 and 65000 which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper- Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources. "

      Hana Mining RC Drilling in Banana Zone Intersects 3.40% Cu and 48.0 g/t Ag Over 6 Metres, 2.51% Cu and 36.0 g/t Ag Over 4 Metres, and 3.35% Cu and 1.0 g/t Ag Over 2 Metres, in South Limb - Aug 05, 2010

      Highlights of recent drilling results:


      + Mineralized strike length for the Banana Zone has been increased by 10.2 kilometres for a total of 58.7 kilometres. The Banana Zone, which contains 2.38 billion pounds of copper and over 45 million ounces of silver, at 0.75% copper cut-off, has a total strike length of 64 kilometres.

      + Drilling is progressing as scheduled to complete 80,000 metres in 2010. Total drilling to date is at approximately 44,800 metres.

      + These latest results completely closed out two strike length gaps surrounding section 52000 on the North Limb and from sections 47500 to 51000 on the South Limb. It partially closed out two other strike length gaps that existed between previous drill results from section 65000 on the South Limb and from sections 45000 to 49000 on the North Limb. Further drilling is on going to close out all gaps along the Banana strike length.

      + High grade intercepts of 3.40% Cu and 48.0 g/t Ag over 6.0 metres in hole HA-400-R, 2.51% Cu and 36.0 g/t Ag over 4.0 metres in hole HA-401-R, 3.35% Cu and 1.0 g/t Ag over 2.0 metres in hole HA-406-R, 2.79% Cu and 37.0 g/t Ag over 3.0 metres in hole HA-412-R and 2.30% Cu and 24.0 g/t Ag over 2.0 metres in hole HA-415-R was drilled on the South Limb.

      + Drilling continues on the Banana Zone to confirm the known strike length and close gaps along the mineralization within the Zone.

      Development Update:

      The following engineering activities are ongoing to fulfill the goal of completion of a PEA by Q4 2010:


      + Mine open pit modeling has been carried out using the April 2010 resource as a basis to define parameters to be used in the revised model to be completed after the 2010 drilling has been incorporated;

      + Metallurgical work is ongoing for the Banana Zone at Mintek in Johannesburg, and at Metcon Research in Tucson, Arizona;

      + Field work for water exploration is ongoing with drill targets being identified;

      + Environmental and socioeconomic baseline work is ongoing and the company anticipates initial public meetings with stakeholders in the fall.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "Progress on this drill campaign has been accelerating with excellent progress on the resource development drill program. The Ghanzi project mineral deposition remains highly predictable, which is confirmed with the copper horizon being encountered in every hole drilled. Completion of the initial resource development stage of the Banana Zone is now within sight. As drilling progresses the focus will shift to interpreting the data in anticipation of completing a revised resource estimate in support of the ongoing preliminary economic assessment (PEA). Engineering studies are progressing and we are on track to completing this important study by year end.

      We recognize that the value of the Ghanzi project will increase from demonstrating the potential for more mineralization outside of the Banana Zone. A geochemical soil and a high resolution helicopter aeromagnetic survey are underway covering most of the Ghanzi property. The results of these surveys will soon allow us to drill test other sections of the highly predictable Ghanzi copper-silver bearing horizon."



      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      The drilling program and results are reviewed and approved by Vivian Park, P.Geo., Senior Geologist/Database Manager for Hana Mining. She is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      The Company has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program. For RC drill samples, a 35-40 kilogram sample is collected from the cyclone discharge at 1 meter intervals. Samples are then split 75/25; 75% of the sample is archived and the other 25% provides material for analysis. All samples are double bagged, sealed and transported in secured wooden crates and shipped to Scientific Services Laboratory in Cape Town, South Africa. Standards, duplicates and blanks are inserted into the sample stream. The analytical method for the total Cu, Ag, Pb, and Zn is acid digestion and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy ("AAS"). The analytical method for soluble Cu is 5% sulfuric acid cold leach followed by AAS. The analytical method for Mo assays is XRF (full matrix correction).


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 sq Km, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 58.7 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on April 21, 2010, announcing an inferred mineral resource of 3.9 billion pounds of copper and 62.1 million ounces of silver from 177 million tonnes. This mineral resource estimate consists of 73.5 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 19 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 13.4 million tonnes grading 1.7% Cu and 12 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 6.3 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 7 g/t Ag in Zone 6; all at a cut-off grade of 0.75% Cu. Also included is 83.6 million tonnes grading 0.46% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag at a cut-off grade of 0.30% in the Chalcocite Zone.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper- Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources. "

      http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/HMG823M.pdf

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Aug. 23, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") - (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce that it has obtained approval from its shareholders at the August 12, 2010 Special General Meeting to the Plan of Arrangement and Arrangement Agreement (collectively the "Arrangement") with New Hana Copper Mining Ltd. ("New Hana") and Hana Mining Botswana (Proprietary) Limited ("Hana Botswana"), wherein the Company will spin-out Hana Botswana to New Hana. In addition, the Shareholders have approved the amendment to the articles required to give effect to the Arrangement, the completion of the financing in New Hana and the adoption of the Stock Option Plan for New Hana.

      The application for the approval of the Arrangement by the Supreme Court of British Columbia, including a determination that the Arrangement was fair to security holders of the Company, was approved on August 17, 2010.

      An effective date will be named upon the receipt of all required regulatory approvals (the "Effective Date"). As of the Effective Date, every four (4) common shares of the Company will entitle the shareholders of record to receive one additional common share of New Hana. New Hana is currently seeking a stock exchange listing for its common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), and is in the process of completing an equity offering to raise at least $3,000,000 and up to a maximum of $5,000,000 to further develop the eleven (11) prospecting licenses held by Hana Botswana. Shareholders of the Company will receive the New Hana common shares, in addition to the common shares of the Company they already hold on the basis as set out above.


      About New Hana's Kuke Project in Botswana

      Hana Botswana owns 11 prospecting licenses in Botswana, representing the Kuke Property. The 10,653.9 km2 Kuke property is located immediately adjacent to the north and south of the Company's Ghanzi copper-silver project. In early 2010 a high resolution aeromagnetic survey indicated that copper-silver mineralization at the Company's Ghanzi project may extend well into the Kuke property. Therefore, the Kuke project has significant exploration potential. Once New Hana has completed its initial equity financing, it will carry out an exploration drilling campaign to confirm the presence of copper-silver mineralization at Kuke.

      Non-Bank Financial Institutions Regulatory Authority of Botswana Grants "Local Asset Status" to Hana Mining Ltd. - Aug 30, 2010
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/Non-Bank-Financial-Institut…

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Aug. 30, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd., ("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce that it has been granted "local asset status" by the Non-Bank Financial Institutions Regulatory Authority of Botswana ("NBFIRA"). NBFIRA is the regulatory authority responsible for the regulation and orderly market conduct of all non-bank financial institutions registered within the Republic of Botswana.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:


      "The granting of 'local asset status' on Hana is a positive development, as investment and pension funds that are domiciled in Botswana can now invest in Hana and the shares of Hana can now also be treated as part of the funds's local allocation of investments. There are only a handful of publicly traded companies that have local asset status in Botswana :eek: and therefore, I expect that there could be significant demand for Hana's shares by the Botswana investment community."

      Ich hatte vor einiger Zeit mal spaßenshalber eine Rechnung aufgestellt, was das Projekt dem Land an, zusätzlichem, BIP/Eportvolumen/Rohstoffexportvolumen zufliessen lassen würde, wenn es denn mal in Produktion geht. Die Zahlen waren, relativ, Wahnsinn(was in dem Falle mehr über das Land, dennüber das Projekt aussagen dürfte) -&das, damals, angenommene Fördervolumen dürfte ich wahrs. noch um den Faktor2 -3 zu niedrig angesetzt haben. Werd das nochmal raussuchen, dürfte aber soweit ich mich erinnere((Förder)Volumenangepasst)) zwischen 2 -10%(!!) liegen(je nach Kategorie). PEA weiter in Q4 erwartet:

      Hana Mining Ltd.: Latest Drilling Results Identify High-Grade Potential Starter Pit at the Banana Zone, Ghanzi Project, Botswana - Sep 08, 2010

      Highlights:


      + Based on the most recent drilling results, New Discovery is shaping up to be the site of initial open pit mining for the Banana Zone.

      + These latest results confirm a strike length of almost 2 km between section lines 49,700 to 51,600 on the North Limb at the New Discovery area.

      + High grade intercepts of 7.64% Cu and 78.0 g/t Au over 8.48 metres in hole HA-122b-D, 1.91% Cu and 21.0 g/t Au over 23.49 metres in hole HA-128d-D, 6.70% Cu and 159.0 g/t Ag over 2.5 metres in hole HA-119-D, and 3.40% Cu and 69.0 g/t Ag over 6.00 metres in hole HA-132-D.

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Sept. 8, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce its most recent drilling results from the completion of 59 infill diamond drill holes from the Banana Zone at its Ghanzi sediment hosted Copper-Silver Project in Botswana.

      Infill drilling was carried out within the New Discovery area (between sections 49,700 to 51,600 on the North Limb) to assist Hana's technical team in the design and modeling of the initial high-grade starter pit at the Banana Zone, and to convert a substantial amount of the NI 43-110 compliant resources within this area into the Measured and Indicated (M&I) category from the Inferred category.

      These results are from new holes and are in addition to those used in the most recent NI 43-101 compliant Inferred mineral resource calculation (see Table 1 at the end of this press release for the results from all 59 drill holes). The mineralization remains open at depth.



      (...)

      Discussion of Results:

      The recently completed infill drilling program at New Discovery has confirmed the previous drilling results between sections 49,700 to 51,600 (Figure 1) and is expected to allow the conversion of resources to M&I from Inferred. Given the encouraging grades and widths encountered, this area is likely to become the focus for initial open pit mining operations at the Banana Zone (Figures 2 and 3). Engineering and modeling have already commenced and the results are expected to be incorporated into the Preliminary Economic Assessment which is expected to be completed by the end of calendar year 2010.

      Development Update:

      The following engineering activities are ongoing to fulfill the goal of completion of a PEA by Q4 2010:


      + Mine open pit modeling has been carried out using the April 2010 resource as a basis to define parameters to be used in the revised model to be completed after the 2010 drilling has been incorporated;

      + Metallurgical work is ongoing for the Banana Zone at Mintek in Johannesburg, and at Metcon Research in Tucson, Arizona which is carrying out the metallurgical (leaching) work for the Chalcocite Zone;

      + Field work for water exploration is ongoing with drill targets being identified;

      + Environmental and socioeconomic baseline work is ongoing and the company anticipates initial public meetings with stakeholders in the fall.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "The New Discovery area, with its favorable strip ratios (Figure 3), is shaping up to be the location of the starter pit for initial mining operations at the Banana Zone. We initially investigated commencing mining operations at New Discovery when drilling indicated that copper-silver mineralization was thick and consistent. Now, with the most recent drilling results in hand that confirm the high-grade horizons within thick intercepts of copper-silver mineralization, we are becoming more confident that New Discovery may be able to supply feedstock to our grinding mills for the initial years of operations and, therefore, could provide a quick payback on investment. A similar opportunity exists for Hana in sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs of the Banana Zone. Delineation drilling in this section is under way."


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      The drilling program and results are reviewed and approved by Vivian Park, P.Geo., Senior Geologist/Database Manager for Hana. Ms. Park is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      Hana has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program. Drill core is logged, photographed, split in half by sawing, and sampled at site. Samples are placed into labelled bags, closed and packed into sealed bags that are shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratory in Johannesburg, South Africa. Hana has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program that includes the blind insertion of certified standards, duplicates and field blanks into the sample stream.

("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce its most recent drilling results from the completion of 27 infill diamond drill holes from the Banana Zone at its Ghanzi sediment hosted Copper-Silver Project in Botswana.

      Infill drilling was carried out within the Northeast Fold area (between sections 69000 to 70500 on the North Limb; Figure 1) to assist Hana's technical team in the design and modeling of a second potential pit at the Banana Zone and to convert a substantial amount of the NI 43-101 compliant resources within this area into the Measured and Indicated (M&I) category from the Inferred category (the initial potential starter pit is to be located at the New Discovery area, see press release dated September 8, 2010).

      These results are from new holes and are in addition to those used in the most recent NI 43-101 compliant Inferred mineral resource calculation (see Table 1 at the end of this press release for the results from all 27 drill holes). The mineralization remains open at depth.



      Highlights of recent drilling results:

      + Drilling is progressing as scheduled. Total drilling to date is approximately 65,000 metres.

      + These latest results confirm a strike length of approximately 2 km between section lines 69000 to 70500 on the North Limb at the Northeast Fold area (Figure 2). This area is shaping up to be the second potential site for open-pit mining operations at the Banana Zone.

      + High grade intercepts of 5.69% Cu and 14.0 g/t Ag over 2.47 metres in hole HA-179-D, 3.89% Cu and 69.0 g/t Ag over 4.00 metres in hole HA-183-D, 2.26% Cu and 10.0 g/t Ag over 8.25 metres in hole HA-178-D, and 2.72% Cu and 44.0 g/t Ag over 5.75 metres in hole HA-184-D.

      + Wide intercepts of 1.07% Cu and 16.0 g/t Ag over 41.00 metres (including 2.50% Cu and 47.0 g/t Ag over 13.00 metres) in hole HA-173-D, 0.98% Cu and 13.0 g/t Ag over 28.00 metres (including 1.28% Cu and 17.0 g/t Ag over 19.00 metres) in hole HA-172-D, 0.93% Cu and 13.0 g/t Ag over 22.00 metres (including 1.85% Cu and 24.0 g/t Ag over 9.00 metres) in hole HA-190-D, and 0.56% Cu and 8.0 g/t Ag over 25.00 metres (including 3.31% Cu and 77.0 g/t Ag over 0.80 metres) in hole HA-187-D.


      Discussion of Results:

      The recently completed infill drilling program at Northeast Fold has confirmed the previous drilling results between section lines 69000 to 70500 on the North Limb (Figure 1) and is expected to allow the conversion of resources to M&I from Inferred. Given the encouraging grades and widths encountered, this area will become the location for a second potential pit for open pit mining operations at the Banana Zone (Figures 2 and 3). Engineering and modeling have already commenced and the results are expected to be incorporated into the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) which is expected to be completed by the end of calendar year 2010.

      Development Update:

      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing to fulfill the goal of completion of a PEA by Q4 2010:


      + Preliminary mine open pit modeling has been carried out using the April 2010 resource as a basis to define parameters to be used in the revised model to be completed after the 2010 drilling has been incorporated;

      + Preliminary metallurgical results on the Banana Zone sulphide drill-core composites have been received from Mintek in Johannesburg, South Africa. Preliminary results are encouraging. Final metallurgical results on the Banana Zone sulphides are expected to be received in October;

      + Metallurgical (leaching) work, which is being carried out by Metcon Research in Tuscon, Arizona, on the Chalcocite Zone is ongoing. Results are expected to be available by the end of November 2010;

      + Field work for water exploration is ongoing;

      + Initial public consultation meetings, which are part of the ongoing Environmental and Social Impact studies, were recently held in the villages of Ghanzi, D'Kar and Kuke. The consultation meetings with the stakeholders were well attended and support for the project is positive.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "We are pleased that our aggressive drilling program has identified a second area for potential open-pit operations at the Banana Zone. Like the New Discovery area, the Northeast Fold area has good mineralized widths, high-grades and consistent copper-silver mineralization which should provide feedstock material to the grinding mill for a number of years. We continue to be confident that there will be other areas within the Banana Zone that could also be sites for open pit mining operations providing many working faces."


      Qualified Person &Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      The drilling program and results are reviewed and approved by Vivian Park, P.Geo., Senior Geologist/Database Manager for Hana. She is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      Drill core is logged and photographed. Mineralized intervals are split in half by sawing, and sampled at site. The remainder of the core is kept as a permanent record. Samples are placed into labelled bags, closed and packed into sealed bags that are shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratory in Johannesburg, South Africa. Hana has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program that includes the blind insertion of certified standards, duplicates and blanks into the sample stream.


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 sq Km, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on April 21, 2010, announcing an inferred mineral resource of 3.9 billion pounds of copper and 62.1 million ounces of silver from 177 million tonnes. This mineral resource estimate consists of 73.5 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 19 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 13.4 million tonnes grading 1.7% Cu and 12 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 6.3 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 7 g/t Ag in Zone 6; all at a cut-off grade of 0.75% Cu. Also included is 83.6 million tonnes grading 0.46% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag at a cut-off grade of 0.30% in the Chalcocite Zone.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs (Figure 1), which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources.

      Hana Mining Ltd.: Drilling Expands Copper Mineralization at the Chalcocite Zone by 700 Metres - Nov 01, 2010

      HL:


      + The strike length increases by approximately 700 metres between section lines 38250 to 38950 at the Chalcocite Zone (Figure 2).

      + Wide intercepts of 0.36% Cu and 3.0 g/t Ag over 38.0 metres in hole HA-490-R, 0.37% Cu and 3.0 g/t Ag over 39.0 metres (including 1.38% Cu and 10.0 g/t Ag over 2.0 metres) in hole HA-502-R, 0.30% Cu and 3.0 g/t Ag over 36.0 metres in hole HA-480-R, 0.24% Cu and 3.0 g/t Ag over 33.0 metres in hole HA-481-R, and 0.29% Cu and 3.0 g/t Ag over 30.0 metres in hole HA-482-R (Figure 3).

      + A total 6.75 kilometre strike length of the Chalcocite Zone has now been drilled. Mineralization at the Chalcocite Zone is still open at depth to the southwest.

      + Total drilling for the Ghanzi Project in 2010 is approximately 66,700 metres.

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 1, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce its most recent drilling results from the completion of 11 RC drill holes from the Chalcocite Zone (formerly known as the Southwest Fold at the Banana Zone) at its Ghanzi sediment hosted Copper-Silver Project in Botswana.

      The latest RC drilling results (between sections 38250 to 38950; Figure 1) extend the strike length at the Chalcocite Zone by 700 metres.

      These results are from new holes and are in addition to those used in the most recent NI 43-101 compliant Inferred mineral resource calculation (see Table 1). The mineralization remains open at depth.


      (...)

      Discussion of Results:

      The most recent completed RC drilling results extend the strike length at the Chalcocite Zone by approximately 700 metres to 6.75 km. The Chalcocite Zone is mineralogically defined between section N40200 on the north limb, counter-clockwise to section S42800 on the south limb (Figure 1). Copper-silver mineralization is still open at depth to the southwest. The drilling results are from sections 38250 to 38950. The results from these holes are expected to be included in the impending 43-101 NI resource calculation. For comparison, the most recent Inferred Mineral Resource calculation estimated that the Chalcocite Zone contains approximately 850 million pounds of copper and almost 10 million ounces of silver (at a cut-off grade of 0.30% Cu). The latest resource estimate was based on a confirmed strike length of 3.83 kilometers. Since the latest resource estimate was produced, Hana has drilled an additional 4,023 metres at the Chalcocite Zone. Therefore, it is expected that the next resource estimate at the Chalcocite Zone could increase considerably.

      Development Update:

      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing to fulfill the goal of completion of a PEA by Q4 2010:


      + Preliminary mine open pit modeling has been carried out using the April 2010 resource as a basis to define the parameters to be used. A revised model will be completed after the 2010 drilling has been incorporated;

      + Resource modeling is progressing as expected and a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Banana and Chalcocite Zones is expected to be released in early November 2010.

      + Preliminary metallurgical results on the Banana Zone sulphide drill-core composites have been received from Mintek in Johannesburg , South Africa. Preliminary results are in line with our expectations. Final metallurgical results on the Banana Zone sulphides are expected to be received by the end of November;

      + Metallurgical (leaching) work, which is being carried out by Metcon Research in Tuscon, Arizona, on the Chalcocite Zone is ongoing. Results are expected to be available by the end of November 2010;

      + Field work for water exploration is ongoing;


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "The Chalcocite Zone continues to intrigue us given that it has the potential to be a stand-alone bulk tonnage copper operation with potentially good strip ratios. Assuming positive metallurgical leaching and flotation results, the Chalcocite Zone could give us two processing options (heap leaching with SX/EW vs. conventional milling and floatation). Given this, I believe that the optionality of the Chalcocite Zone adds value to the Ghanzi Project and Hana's shareholders."


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      The drilling program and results are reviewed and approved by Vivian Park, PGeo., Senior Geologist/Database Manager for Hana. She is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      For RC drilling, a 35-40 kilogram bulk sample is collected from the cyclone discharge at one meter intervals. Bulk samples that have been designated as mineralized are split 75/25; 25% of the bulk sample is retained as a replica archive. Samples for assay of approximately 1.5 kilograms are extracted from the replica sample. The remainder of the bulk sample is reclaimed at the drill site.

      All samples are bagged, stapled, and assembled into labelled and sealed bulk bags. They are transported to in secured wooden crates and shipped to Scientific Services Laboratory in Cape Town, South Africa. The analytical method for total Cu, Pb, and Zn is acid digestion read by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy ("AAS"); a separate digestion is performed for Ag. The analytical method for acid soluble Cu is 5% sulphuric acid cold leach followed by AAS. Mo is read by XRF on a pressed powder pellet.

The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 sq Km, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on April 21, 2010, announcing an inferred mineral resource of 3.9 billion pounds of copper and 62.1 million ounces of silver from 177 million tonnes. This mineral resource estimate consists of 73.5 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 19 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 13.4 million tonnes grading 1.7% Cu and 12 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 6.3 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 7 g/t Ag in Zone 6; all at a cut-off grade of 0.75% Cu. Also included is 83.6 million tonnes grading 0.46% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag at a cut-off grade of 0.30% in the Chalcocite Zone.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources.

      Hana Announces Recoveries of 92.75% Copper; 80.58% Silver; and 78.28% Molybdenum From Metallurgical Testing on Sulphides From the Banana Zone - Nov 08, 2010

      Highlights of recent metallurgical results:


      + Initial locked cycled tests, at a coarse grind size of 150 microns, show a copper recovery of 92.75% and a silver recovery of 80.58%.

      + The tests also show a final concentrate grade of 43.55% copper, 853.57g/t silver and 0.73% molybdenum.

      + Molybdenum recoveries in the copper concentrate were highly encouraging with an average recovery of 78.28%.

      + Metallurgical work on applying conventional flotation technology on oxide and transitional material from the Banana Zone and sulphide material from the Chalcocite Zone is ongoing.

      + Given the encouraging recoveries and concentrate grades of the molybdenum, Hana will look at the feasibility of producing a saleable molybdenum concentrate. ...

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 8, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) ("Hana" or the "Company") is pleased to announce final results on the first locked cycle tests on sulphide material from the Banana Zone at the Ghanzi Project. The results show that the copper-silver mineralization at the Banana Zone sulfide mineralization is highly amenable to conventional flotation recovery technology (Table 1).


      Table 1. Ghanzi Project - Banana Zone Locked Cycle Test-1 Results

      Concentrate Grade %, g/t Recovery % Mass Cu Ag Mo Cu Ag Mo(%) (%) (g/t) (%) (%) (%) (%)

      Head 100.00 1.55 34.87 0.03 100.00 100.00 100.00

      (...)


      Discussion of Results:

      The preliminary metallurgical testing program was designed to determine the grinding and flotation characteristics of a Banana Zone-sulphide mineralization sample which is indicative of the current Ghanzi NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate (to view Figure 1 please click on: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/hmg1108.jpg). The test data will be used to develop a process flow sheet, to identify further testing requirements, and to develop capital and operating costs for the Preliminary Economic Assessment which is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2010.

      Mineralized material submitted for testing came from composite material from New Discovery, Northeast Fold and South Limb areas (Table 2). Therefore, the above results are indicative of the mineralized sulphide material at the Banana Zone.



      Table 2. Banana Zone Sulphide Composite

      Zones Hole-ID From (m) To (m) Total (m)


      New Discovery HA-99-DM 93 120 27
      New Discovery HA-100-DM 76 150 74
      South Limb HA-103-DM 115 122 7
      Northeast Fold HA-105-DM 148 160 12

      Total 120


      In the Banana Zone, sulphide composite bornite and chalcocite represent 95% of the copper mineralization. Approximately 80% of the copper minerals are liberated at a coarse grind size of 150 microns, while copper minerals which are not liberated are associated with hard silicates and phyllosilicates.

      Initial locked cycled metallurgical tests on the sulphides from the Banana Zone show that the mineralized material is highly amenable to conventional flotation methods resulting in a copper recovery of 92.75%, and a silver recovery of 80.58%. The testing also showed that conventional flotation can produce a relatively high grade concentrate, with average grades of 43.55% copper and 853.57 g/t silver. For comparison, most conventional copper sulphide mining and milling operations produce a product with concentrate grades of 25% to 30% copper. Therefore, the Banana Zone will produce a very high quality product that should elicit considerable interest from global copper smelters.

      Highly encouraging results were also received on the contained molybdenum which showed a molybdenum recovery of 78.28% with the bulk concentrate grade of 0.73% molybdenum. Given the encouraging molybdenum results, Hana will move forward with additional work to evaluate the viability of producing a separate molybdenum concentrate. Results are not expected to be available until sometime in 2011.


      Development Update:

      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing to fulfill the goal of completion of a PEA by Q4 2010:


      + Preliminary mine open pit modeling has been carried out using the April 2010 resource as a basis to define the parameters to be used. A revised model will be completed after the 2010 drilling has been incorporated;

      + Resource modeling is progressing as expected and a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Banana and Chalcocite Zones is expected to be released soon;

      + Metallurgical (column leaching) work, which is being carried out by Metcon Research in Tuscon, Arizona, on Banana Zone Oxide and on Chalcocite Zone composites is ongoing. Results are expected to be available by the end of the year;

      + Field work for water exploration is ongoing.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "The above results are a significant positive catalyst for the Ghanzi Project given that we have now removed some of the technical risks of the project. Now that we are likely to produce a very high quality saleable product, considering that there is a worldwide surplus of smelting capacity, we expect that we should be able to secure a very favorable off-take agreement(s) for our product which should, in turn, reduce our operating costs."


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      Metallurgical test work was carried out by MINTEK of Johannesburg, South Africa under the supervision of Arthur. H. Winckers & Associates Mineral Processing Consulting.

      Hana Identifies New Zones of Copper Silver Mineralization at the Ghanzi Project, Botswana - Nov 18, 2010

      Highlights of recent drilling results:


      + Drilling at Zone 3 established an initial strike length of approximately 4.0 kilometres between section lines 50300 to 52400 and 54800 to 55400 (Figure 2).

      + At Zone 3, Intercepts of 0.86% Cu and 9.0 g/t Ag over 7.0 metres (including 3.52% Cu and 47.0 g/t Ag over 1.0 metre) in hole HA-508-R, 0.76% Cu and 8.0 g/t Ag over 6.0 metres (including 3.51% Cu and 42.0 g/t Ag over 1.0 metre) in hole HA-462-R, 0.50% Cu and 6.0 g/t Ag over 9.0 metres (including 2.28% Cu and 32.0 g/t Ag over 1.0 metre) in hole HA-443-R, and 0.27% Cu and 3.0 g/t Ag over 14.0 metres (including 1.21% Cu and 17.0 g/t Ag over 1.0 metre) in hole HA-493-R.

      + Copper-silver mineralization at Zone 3 is open along strike to the northeast, southwest and at depth.

      + In the Initial reconnaissance drilling near Zones 5 and 9 the drilling encountered anomalous concentrations of copper at the siltstone-sandstone contact. Hana intends to follow up on these results in 2011.

      + Total drilling for the Ghanzi Project in 2010 is approximately 66,700 metres. ...
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/Hana-Identifies-New-Zones-C…
      http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/HMG17figures.pdf

      "... Discussion of Drilling Results at Zone 3:

      During the second half of 2010 Hana carried out an inaugural drilling campaign at Zone 3, which is located approximately 5 kilometres to the northwest of the Banana Zone, targeting coincidental soil geochemical and airborne geophysical anomalies (Figure 2). At this zone Hana drilled 30 RC drill holes of which 23 intersected significant copper-silver mineralization. These 23 holes have defined an initial mineralized strike length of approximately 4.0 kilometres. Hana's geologists estimate that Zone 3 could have a mineralized strike length of at least an additional 40 kilometres.

      Like the Banana Zone, there are likely to be areas within Zone 3 that have thick widths of high-grade copper-silver mineralization. In early 2011 Hana will resume drilling at Zone 3 with the goal of identifying areas that have the potential to host higher grade copper-silver mineralization. ..."

      Hana Mining Ltd. Announces Proposed Closing of Arrangement for Spin-out of New Hana Copper Mining Ltd. - Nov 18, 2010
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/Hana-Mining-Ltd-Announces-P…

      "Hana Mining Ltd. (the "Company"), (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH): On January 21, 2010 and May 25, 2010, the Company announced the plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") with New Hana Copper Mining Ltd. ("New Hana"), wherein the Company will spin-out Hana Mining Botswana (Proprietary) Limited ("Hana Botswana") and the Kuke Property to New Hana.

      The Arrangement was approved by shareholders on August 12, 2010 and by the Supreme Court of British Columbia on August 17, 2010. The Company has also received conditional listing acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange for the listing of New Hana's common shares, and has commitments for adequate financing for New Hana (described below), so all preconditions for the closing of the Arrangement have now been met. The Company has therefore determined November 26, 2010 as the date of record for the Arrangement (the "Effective Date").

      As of the Effective Date, every four (4) common shares of the Company will entitle the shareholders of record to receive one additional common share of New Hana. Shareholders of the Company will receive the New Hana common shares, in addition to the common shares of the Company they already hold on the revised basis as set out above. Only shareholders of record on the Effective Date will be entitled to receive the New Hana common shares under the Arrangement. Since share trade settlements take three days for processing, this means that November 23, 2010 will be the last day of trading of the Company's shares for investors who wish to receive New Hana shares.

      New Hana will complete a brokered and non-brokered private placement (the "New Hana Financing") of a minimum of 12,000,000 and up to a maximum of 20,000,000 units of New Hana (the "Units") at an offering price of $0.25 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of one (1) common share of New Hana, and one-half (1/2) of a non-transferable share purchase warrant (the "Warrants"). Each whole Warrant will entitle the investor to acquire one additional common share of New Hana at an exercise price of $0.50 per share for a period of one year from the closing date of the financing. It is anticipated that the New Hana Financing will close on or about December 2, 2010.

      Investors are referred to the Information Circular dated July 12, 2010 prepared in connection with the Arrangement and available on SEDAR under the Company's profile for further information (www.sedar.com). Trading in the securities of the Company should be considered highly speculative.

      Wieso willst Du hier investieren?


      Und vor allem, wenn Du noch nichtmal eine Ahnung hast, warum die letzte SP Entwicklung??

      Und vor allem, allem, wenn Du Dich, offensichtlicher Weise, noch nicht die Bohne informiert hast???


      Hier findest Du fast alle relevanten Informationen zum Unternehmen(Übersicht: #75) -&hast Dir keine 2Min Zeit genommen. Diese "Investitionsentscheidungen based on Momentum" interessieren mich nicht mehr. Mach als 1stes Hausaufgaben, oder lass es. Der Punkt ist: Das sollte man Dir nicht sagen, dass solltest Du als Selbstanspruch haben.

      Ich würde jetzt nicht mehr kaufen.

      Hana Announces High Grade Drilling Results From the South Limb at the Banana Zone - Nov 23, 2010

      Hana Announces Highly Encouraging Results From Initial Water Exploration Program at the Ghanzi Project - Nov 29, 2010

      Highlights of water exploration results:


      + Five of the seven drill holes intersected significant volumes of water.

      + Blow yield tests from these drill holes indicate that there is likely to be sufficient water available for the proposed Banana Zone processing plant.

      + Pump tests, which determine the sustainability at a certain flow rate, are currently being carried out with the results expected to be incorporated into the impending Preliminary Economic Assessment.

      + Initial testing has also indicated that the water is of sufficient quality to be used in a processing plant.

      + Two more water exploration holes are expected to be completed by the end of December of 2010.
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/Hana-Announces-Highly-Encou…

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 29, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd., ("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce initial results from the ongoing water exploration drilling program near the Banana Zone at the Ghanzi sediment hosted Copper-Silver Project in Botswana.

      Since September 2010 Hana has been exploring for water which is to be used at the proposed processing plant at the Banana Zone. Pump test results from the water exploration program are to be incorporated in Hana's Preliminary Economic Assessment which is expected to be made public in Q1 2010.

      (...)


      Discussion of Results:

      Water exploration drilling was carried out near the Banana Zone to identify water resources which would be used to supply water to the proposed Banana Zone processing plant. During Q 4 2010, Hana drilled seven holes of which five holes intersected significant quantities of water. An additional two test wells are expected to be drilled before the end of December 2010. Initial blow yield tests indicated good flow rates. Additional pump testing of the water drill holes, which will determine the sustainability at a certain flow rate, has commenced and the results are expected to be incorporated into the upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment which is to be made public in Q1 2010.


      Development Update:

      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing to fulfill the goal of completion of a PEA in Q1 2011:


      + Preliminary mine open pit modeling has been carried out using the April 2010 resource as a basis to define the parameters to be used. A revised model will be completed after the 2010 drilling has been incorporated;

      + Resource modeling is progressing as expected;

      + Metallurgical (column leaching) work, which is being carried out by Metcon Research in Tucson, Arizona, on the Chalcocite Zone is ongoing. Results are expected to be available by the end of the year;

      + Field work for water exploration is ongoing;

      + Stefanutti Stocks Mining Services of Johannesburg South Africa have been engaged by Hana to provide the preliminary tailing impoundment designs for the project;

      + Further details on the Ghanzi Project can be found on Hana's updated website (www.hanamining.com).


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "The water exploration program for the Ghanzi Project to date has been very successful. It removes one of the more significant risks associated with the Project. We have the expectation at this time that we will be successful in locating enough water to support a processing plant."


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      The water exploration and testing program is being managed by Wellfields Consulting Services (Pty) Ltd. of Gaborone, Botswana.

      Mr. Fred Stahlbush, Hana's Vice President of Engineering, is the qualified person, as defined in NI 43-101, and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on April 21, 2010, announcing an inferred mineral resource of 3.9 billion pounds of copper and 62.1 million ounces of silver from 177 million tonnes. This mineral resource estimate consists of 73.5 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 19 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 13.4 million tonnes grading 1.7% Cu and 12 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 6.3 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 7 g/t Ag in Zone 6; all at a cut-off grade of 0.75% Cu. Also included is 83.6 million tonnes grading 0.46% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag at a cut-off grade of 0.30% in the Chalcocite Zone.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper- Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources."

      Abgeschlossen. Nicht nur da das Going Public abgeschlossen ist, ist die Frage ein bissl komisch. ;)



      "Weiß jemand wann Hanna in Produktion gehen will?"

      Noch unklar, Ziel ist ~2014/´15(2. HJ/1. HJ).

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Dec. 17, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("HMG" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Alexander ("Alex") Davidson to the Board of Directors of the Company.

      Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Davidson was the Executive Vice President of Exploration and Corporate Development with Barrick Gold :eek: where he was responsible for Barrick's international exploration programs and Corporate Development activities. Mr. Davidson joined Barrick in October 1993.

      Mr. Davidson initiated the expansion of Barrick Exploration out of North America and into Latin America, Africa and Asia and in so doing, built one of the premier exploration groups in the world. :eek: On the corporate development side, Mr. Davidson was instrumental in the acquisitions of Sutton Resources, Arequipa Resources, Pangea Goldfields, Homestake Mining and Placer Dome Ltd.

      In April 2005, Mr. Davidson was presented with the 2005 A.O. Dufresne Award by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum "In recognition of his strong team leadership skills, his commitment to exploration excellence, and his exploration successes in Canada and internationally."

      In 2003, Mr. Davidson was named the Prospector of the Year by the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada in recognition for his team's discovery of the Lagunas Norte Project in the Alto Chicama District, Peru. He received his B.Sc. and his M.Sc. in Economic Geology from McGill University.


      To facilitate the appointment of Mr. Davidson, Mr. Lloyd Gathercole has agreed to step down from the Company's Board of Directors.


      Hana Mining's CEO, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "I am very pleased to welcome Alex Davidson to Hana's Board of Directors. The addition of Alex, who has an unparalleled :eek: track record in the discovery of world-class mineral deposits :eek: , significantly strengthens our board. Alex also brings his substantial corporate experience from being a member of the senior management team at Barrick; the world's largest gold producer. We are looking forward to receiving constructive insights from Alex as we move forward with a new exploration program outside of the Banana Zone in 2011 and as we move forward with the development of the Ghanzi project. I would also like to personally thank Lloyd Gathercole for his many years of service to Hana. Lloyd played a significant role during Hana's ascent to becoming a significant copper development company."

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limb, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2010. The Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on April 21, 2010, announcing an inferred mineral resource of 3.9 billion pounds of copper and 62.1 million ounces of silver from 177 million tonnes. This mineral resource estimate consists of 73.5 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 19 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 13.4 million tonnes grading 1.7% Cu and 12 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 6.3 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 7 g/t Ag in Zone 6; all at a cut-off grade of 0.75% Cu. Also included is 83.6 million tonnes grading 0.46% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag at a cut-off grade of 0.30% in the Chalcocite Zone.

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Dec. 20, 2010) - Hana Mining Ltd., ("Hana" or the "Company")(TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce that it has received an updated 43-101 compliant, independent resource estimate that has significantly increased the size of the Banana Zone and the adjacent Chalcocite Zone, located within the Ghanzi Copper-Silver project in northwestern Botswana, Africa.


      At a 0.75% copper cut-off, the estimated mineral resources at the Ghanzi Project are:


      + Indicated Mineral Resources: 19.7 million tonnes grading 1.35% copper and 19.7 g/t silver, containing 585 million pounds of copper and 12.5 million ounces of silver.

      + Inferred Mineral Resources: 91.2 million tonnes grading 1.20% copper and 13.83 g/t silver, containing 2.4 billion pounds of copper and 40.6 million ounces of silver.


      At a 0.30% copper cut-off, the estimated mineral resources at the Ghanzi Project are:

      + Indicated Mineral Resources: 37.4 million tonnes grading 0.93% copper and 13.4 g/t silver, containing 762 million pounds of copper and 16.1 million ounces of silver.

      + Inferred Mineral Resources: 423.9 million tonnes grading 0.60% copper and 6.3 g/t silver, containing 5.6 billion pounds of copper and 85.4 million ounces of silver.

      The mineral resource estimate for the different zones at the Ghanzi Project is summarized in tables 1 and 2 which can be viewed at the following link: http://
      media3.marketwire.com/docs/hmgtbl12.pdf.

      The resources at the Ghanzi Project at a cut-off grade of 0.30% copper are shown in tables 3 and 4 which can be viewed at the following link: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/hmgtbl34.pdf.

      The previous global mineral resource estimates for the Ghanzi Project are also summarized in tables 5 and 6 which can be viewed at the following link: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/hmgtbl56.pdf (Note there were no Indicated Resources at the Ghanzi Project in the previous resource estimate).

      Discussion of Results:

      The most recent resource estimate was prepared by Sphynx Consulting CC of Noordbrug, South Africa. This estimate updates the previous resource estimate (Hana news release April 21, 2010) by GeoLogix Mineral Resource Consultants (Pty) Ltd. of Potchefstroom, South Africa, reflecting six months of drilling exclusively in the Banana and Chalcocite Zones (Figure 1). The last resource estimate was completed and filed on SEDAR in May 2010. Resource drilling was not carried out at Zones 5 and 6 and therefore the resource estimates for these two zones remain unchanged.

      in Relation zu vorherigen Ergebnissen sehr schlecht. Aber es sind auch Anschlussbohrungen in die Tiefe(teilweise >Ver3fachung zum den Limits des letzten Resourcenberichts), die das Gesamtresourcenpotenzial noch einiges erhöhen KÖNNTEN. Auch mit dem bisher tiefsten Bohrloch scheinen sie noch nicht auf das Ende der Mineralisierung gestossen zu sein:

      Hana Extends High-Grade Copper-Silver Mineralization by 450 Metres Along Dip @Its Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana - Jan 17, 2011

      HL:


      + These latest results extend the down dip extension of mineralization by approximately 450 metres @the New Discovery area.

      + Intercepts of 1.46% Cu &6.0 g/t Ag over 3.7 metres in hole HA-251-D, 1.14% Cu &44.0 g/t Ag over 3.2 metres in hole HA-248-D, 1.24% Cu &11.0 g/t Ag over 5.0 metres in hole HA-249b-D, &0.72% Cu &14.0 g/t Ag over 6.1 metres in hole HA-250-D.

      + Hana will resume infill drilling @the Banana Zone in Q1 2011.

      + Exploration drilling will also re-commence @Zones 5 &6 & @other zones @the Ghanzi Project during Q2 2011.


      ...

      Hana Mining's CEO &Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "The deep drilling program @the Banana Zone was carried out to demonstrate that copper-silver mineralization continues down dip for significant distances. The latest drilling results proves this. Given that we have intersected copper-silver mineralization @depths of up to 695 metres, &that the December 2010 resource estimate was based only on a maximum depth of 200-225 metres, we now know that with deeper drilling the resources @the Banana Zone will become significantly larger." ...

      "Letter to Shareholders


      Dear Shareholders,

      Attached is an article by the Northern Miner on our Ghanzi Project. The above article talks about our recently completed 43-101-compliant resource estimate in which we increased our contained copper resources by 43% and our contained silver resources by 97% since our previous resource estimate which was completed in May 2010. This resource estimate will form the basis of our upcoming 43-101-compliant Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") which is expected to be completed by the end of Q1 2011. The PEA, which will be the most important catalyst for Hana Mining yet, will detail the capital and operating costs, production rates and the overall economic parameters of the project.

      While 2010 was an exceptional year for the company, we believe that 2011 will be even better with most global financial houses forecasting a short to medium shortage in the supply of copper with spot copper prices expected reach as high as US$6/lb within the next 18 months.

      Best Regards,

      "Marek Kreczmer"

      Hana Announces Recoveries of 79.9% Copper from Metallurgical Conventional Flotation Recovery Testing on Sulphides from the Chalcocite Zone - Jan 31, 2011
      http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Hana-Announces-Recoveries-of-c…

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Jan. 31, 2011) - Hana Mining Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:HMG - News; FRANKFURT:4LH - News; "Hana" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results on the first locked cycle tests on sulphide material from the Chalcocite Zone at the Ghanzi Project. The results show that the copper mineralization at the Chalcocite Zone sulfide mineralization is highly amenable to conventional flotation recovery technology (Table 1).

      ---------------------------------------------------------------------------


      Highlights of recent metallurgical results:

      + Initial locked cycled tests, at a coarse grind size of 150 microns, show a copper recovery of 79.9%.

      + The tests also show a final copper concentrate grade of 52.5%.

      + Metallurgical work on applying conventional flotation technology on oxide and transitional material from the Banana Zone is ongoing.

      + Metallurgical work on leaching on oxide material from the Banana Zone and material from the Chalcocite Zone is also ongoing.


      Discussion of Results:

      The preliminary metallurgical testing program was designed to determine the grinding and flotation characteristics of a Chalcocite Zone sulphide mineralization sample which is indicative of the current Ghanzi NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate (to see Figure 1 click on: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/hmg131.jpg ). At a cut-off grade of 0.30% Cu, the Chalcocite Zone contains approximately 1.6 billion pounds of copper and 18.5 million ounces of silver from 161.1 million tonnes of mineralized material grading 0.45% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag (Inferred Resources).

      The test data will be used to develop a process flow sheet, to identify further testing requirements and to develop capital and operating costs for the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) which is scheduled to be completed by the end of Q1 2011.

      Mineralized material submitted for testing came from composite material from a 28 metre (61 to 99 metres) interval from drill hole HA-104DM which is located at the Chalcocite Zone (to see Figure 1 click on: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/hmg131.jpg ).

      In the Chalcocite Zone, sulphide composite chalcocite represents approximately 97% of the copper mineralization. Approximately 56% of the copper minerals are liberated at a coarse grind size of 150 microns, while copper minerals which are not liberated are mostly associated with silicates. Acid soluble copper represents 13% of the total contained copper.

      Initial locked cycle metallurgical tests on the sulphides from the Chalcocite Zone show that the mineralized material is highly amenable to conventional flotation methods resulting in a copper recovery of 79.9%. The testing also showed that conventional flotation can produce a high grade concentrate, with average grades of 52.5%. For comparison, most conventional copper sulphide mining and milling operations produce a product with concentrate grades of 25% to 30% copper. :eek: :eek: At the Banana Zone the average concentrate grade, as determined from initial locked cycle tests, was found to be 43.55% copper. Therefore, the Chalcocite Zone will produce a very high quality product that should elicit considerable interest from global copper smelters.


      Development Update:


      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing to fulfill the goal of completion of a PEA in Q1 2011:

      + Preliminary mine open pit modeling is being carried out using the December 2010 resource. A revised model will be completed and incorporated into the upcoming PEA which is expected to be completed in Q1 2011;

      + Metallurgical work (column leaching) has been completed by Metcon Research in Tucson, Arizona, on the Chalcocite Zone and the oxide portion of the Banana Zone. Results are expected to be available soon;

      + New personnel appointments will be announced shortly;

      + Stefanutti Stocks Mining Services of Johannesburg, South Africa have provided a preliminary tailing impoundment design for the project which will be incorporated into the PEA.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "We are very pleased with the metallurgical results from the Chalcocite Zone which show that copper mineralization can be recovered using standard flotation technology producing superior :eek: concentrate grades. If the leaching tests, which are still ongoing, are also positive, then we will be fortunate to have a couple of options for recovering copper at this zone. We believe that this flexibility in recovering copper adds value to the Ghanzi Project. Given the positive metallurgical results, combined with the large growing resource base, shallow dip and likelihood of a low strip ratio, the Chalcocite Zone is beginning to show incredible potential as a possible source of mineralized material to a centrally located processing (milling and flotation) plant."


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      Metallurgical test work was carried out by MINTEK of Johannesburg, South Africa under the supervision of Arthur H. Winckers & Associates Mineral Processing Consulting.

      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on December 20, 2010, announcing an Indicated mineral resource of 762 million pounds of copper and 16 million ounces of silver from 37.4 million tonnes at a grade of 0.93% copper and 13.4 g/t silver. All of the Indicated resources are from the Banana Zone. The resource estimate also includes 5.6 billion pounds of copper and 85.4 million ounces of silver from 423.9 tonnes. This Inferred mineral resource estimate consists of 225.4 million tonnes grading 0.64% Cu and 8.1 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 20.7 million tonnes grading 1.23% Cu and 8.7 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 16.7 million tonnes grading 0.86% Cu and 4.0 g/t Ag in Zone 6, and 161.1 million tonnes grading 0.45% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag in the Chalcocite Zone; all at a cut-off grade of 0.30% Cu.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      Zitat von Popeye82: "This resource estimate will form the basis of our upcoming 43-101-compliant Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") which is expected to be completed by the end of Q1 2011. The PEA, which will be the most important catalyst for Hana Mining yet, will detail the capital and operating costs, production rates and the overall economic parameters of the project."

      Hana Provides Update on Banana Zone Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) - Mar 14, 2011
      http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Hana-Provides-Update-on-ccn-21…

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - March 14, 2011) - Hana Mining Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:HMG - News; FRANKFURT:4LH - News; the "Company") is pleased to provide a progress update on the Banana Zone Preliminary Economic Assessment study being prepared by AGP Mining Consultants Inc. ("AGP").The PEA is assessing the viability of a mining operation at the Banana Zone, Ghanzi Project with copper-silver ore being processed in a 20,000 tonne-per-day plant using conventional flotation to produce copper-silver concentrate.

      Work to date on the PEA is positive and the work effort continues in earnest and the multiple studies required to evaluate the project are meeting expectations. However, the delivery of the reports has been slow mainly due to the level of activity in the mining industry. Therefore, the completion and the release of the PEA is expected to be delayed and is now expected to be made public during May 2011.


      Other activities at the Ghanzi Project include:

      + Definition drilling at the Banana Zone commenced in January and the present expectation is to complete 50,000 metres of core drilling during 2011 which is expected to convert a substantial amount of the Inferred resources into the Indicated category. A new 43-101-Compliant resource estimate, incorporating this drilling, will be released after completion of the drilling program.

      + The final report from the ground water exploration program has been completed and submitted to the Company by Wellfield Consulting Services of Gaborone, Botswana. The report concluded that the proposed groundwater program has been successfully completed and substantial groundwater resources, more than adequate to supply the proposed processing plant, have been identified. The next stage is to substantiate the results through numeric modeling.

      + Multiple metallurgical studies have been completed. Leaching versus flotation PEA level studies appear to confirm conventional milling to be the preferred alternative method at this time considering current cost estimates and metal prices.

      + The Terms of Reference ("ToR"), a very important step towards determining the scope of the Environmental Impact Assessment ("EIA"), was recently submitted and is under review by the various Botswana regulatory entities. Meetings are scheduled for April 2011. The outcome of the meetings will provide guidance on content, issues and timing required for the full EIA.

      + Exploration drilling has resumed at Zone 5. This drilling is expected to increase the mineral resources at Zone 5 which at a cut-off grade of 0.30% copper host approximately 20.7 million tonnes grading 1.23% Cu and 8.70g/t Ag containing 562 million pounds of copper and almost six million ounces of silver. All of the resources at Zone 5 are in the Indicated category.


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,169 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on December 20, 2010, announcing an Indicated mineral resource of 762 million pounds of copper and 16 million ounces of silver from 37.4 million tonnes at a grade of 0.93% copper and 13.4 g/t silver. All of the Indicated resources are from the Banana Zone. There are also Inferred resources of 5.6 billion pounds of copper and 85.4 million ounces of silver from 423.9 million tonnes. This Inferred mineral resource estimate consists of 225.4 million tonnes grading 0.64% Cu and 8.1 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 20.7 million tonnes grading 1.23% Cu and 8.7 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 16.7 million tonnes grading 0.86% Cu and 4.0 g/t Ag in Zone 6, and 161.1 million tonnes grading 0.45% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag in the Chalcocite Zone; all at a cut-off grade of 0.30% Cu.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources.

Forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions and are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties inherent in resource exploration and development. As a result, actual results may vary materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

      Hana Mining Ltd.: Infill Drilling Extends Copper-Silver Mineralization by 300 m Along Dip @the Northeast Fold - Apr 19, 2011

      HL:

      + Drilling is progressing as scheduled. Total drilling to date is approximately 8,875 metres (core &reverse circulation).

      + These latest results extend the copper-silver mineralization by approximately 300 metres down dip within the Northeast Fold area.

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - April 19, 2011) - Hana Mining Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:HMG - News; FRANKFURT:4LH - News; "Hana" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its most recent drilling results from the completion of five infill diamond drill holes in the Banana Zone at its Ghanzi sediment hosted Copper-Silver Project in Botswana.

      Infill drilling was carried out within the Northeast Fold area (between sections 69850 to 70525 on the North Limb; Figures 1 and 2) to assist Hana's technical team in the design and modeling of potential pits at the Banana Zone and to convert a substantial amount of the NI 43-101 compliant resources within this area into the Measured and Indicated (M&I) category from the Inferred category. The drilling was also carried out to assess the underground mining potential at the Northeast Fold.

      These results are from new holes and are in addition to those used in the most recent NI 43-101 compliant Inferred mineral resource calculation (see Table 1 at the end of this press release for the results from all five drill holes). The mineralization remains open at depth.

      (...)


      Discussion of Results:

      The infill drilling program at Northeast Fold has extended the known copper-silver mineralization by approximately 300 metres down dip (Figure 3) and is expected to increase the mineralized resources within this area. Also, this drilling is likely to allow for the conversion more mineral resources from the Inferred category into the Measured and Indicated category. Engineering and modeling of both open pit and underground mining operations are well advanced and the results are expected to be incorporated into the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) which is expected to be completed in May 2011.

      To view Figures 1, 2 and 3 accompanying this press release, please click on the following link: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/hmg419i.pdf


      Development Update

      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing to fulfill the goal of completion of a PEA in May 2011:

      + The design and cost estimations of the grinding mill/processing plant has essentially been completed.

      + The modeling of open pit and underground mining operations continues and is close to being completed.

      + Drilling is continuing at the Banana Zone (three core drills) and Zone 5(one RC drill). More drills are expected to be mobilized within the coming weeks.

      + The Terms of Reference ("ToR") meeting was held last week with the Botswana Department of Environmental Affairs. The ToR will dictate the parameters of the Environmental Impact Assessment.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "The above drilling results continue to prove that copper-silver mineralization at the Banana Zone remains open at depth. Based on these results, we believe that that entire Banana Zone is open at depth and therefore, with deeper drilling, the resource base could increase considerably. The most recent drilling results also demonstrate that there could be enough deep copper-silver mineralization to support underground mining operations at the Northeast Fold and possibly within the rest of the Banana Zone."


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      The drilling program and results are reviewed and approved by Fred Stahlbush., VP Engineering for Hana. He is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      Drill core is logged and photographed. Mineralized intervals are split in half by sawing and sampled at site. The remainder of the core is kept as a permanent record. Samples are placed into labelled bags, closed and packed into sealed bags that are shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratory in Johannesburg, South Africa. Hana has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program that includes the blind insertion of certified standards, duplicates and blanks into the sample stream.

      Hana Mining's CEO, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "I am personally very pleased to welcome Paul to the Hana team. I believe that Paul's experience at Fronteer, which during his tenure saw its market capitalization increased from Cdn$300 million to over Cdn$2.23 billion :eek: at the time of its acquisition by Newmont, will be invaluable to Hana which is a rapidly growing company.

      I would also like to thank Matt Kavanagh for his contributions in the CFO role over the last year. We wish Matt every success in his future corporate endeavors."


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,149 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on December 20, 2010, announcing an Indicated mineral resource of 762 million pounds of copper and 16 million ounces of silver from 37.4 million tonnes at a grade of 0.93% copper and 13.4 g/t silver. All of the Indicated resources are from the Banana Zone. There are also Inferred resources of 5.6 billion pounds of copper and 85.4 million ounces of silver from 423.9 million tonnes. This Inferred mineral resource estimate consists of 225.4 million tonnes grading 0.64% Cu and 8.1 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 20.7 million tonnes grading 1.23% Cu and 8.7 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 16.7 million tonnes grading 0.86% Cu and 4.0 g/t Ag in Zone 6, and 161.1 million tonnes grading 0.45% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag in the Chalcocite Zone; all at a cut-off grade of 0.30% Cu.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper- Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources. "

      Gehalte der Resource könnten höher liegen, als in der aktualisierten Resourcenschätzung, im Dezember, veröffentlicht(argumentativer Aufhänger: da die Konzentrationen im Update deutlich niedriger lagen, was mich, als "Aufhänger" jetzt schon wundert, da es an sich nicht ungewöhnlich ist(abfallende Gehalte bei Erkundung der Grenzen eines Vorkommens, womit sich dann auch der ursprüngliche(höhere) Gesamtgehalt absenkt); wobei, wenn sie damit Recht haben sollten wahrs. schon deutliche Verfahrensfehler vorgelegen haben müssten). Daraus einhergehend werden bis Ende ´11 nochmal 50.000m gebohrt &die 1ste Wirtschaftlichkeitsschätzung wird, einiges, nach hinten verlegt, um das Bohrprogramm noch in der neuen Resourcenschätzung zu berücksichtigen, welche dann die Basis dafür darstellen soll:

      Hana Provides Update on Banana Zone - May 26, 2011
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/hana-provides-update-on-ban…

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - May 26, 2011) -Hana Mining Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) (the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the progress of the Banana Zone.


      Following a recent board of directors meeting, Company management concluded on the following:

      + That the 43-101-compliant resource model that was released in December+ 2010 may underestimate copper and silver grades at the Banana Zone. The Company is currently in the process of remodeling the resource estimate. :eek:

      + The Company is carrying out an aggressive 50,000 metre infill drilling program, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2011. Management, in consultation with the Company's board of directors, believes that the next iteration of a 43-101-compliant resource estimate should include the results of this drilling program.

      + The Company has decided that it would be prudent to postpone the completion of the PEA until a new updated 43-101-compliant resource estimate is completed for the Banana Zone. Work on the metallurgy at the Banana Zone, the Environmental Impact Assessment and regional exploration will continue.


      Discussion of Management's Decisions:

      On December 20, 2010 the Company released an updated resource estimate on the Banana Zone. At a copper cut-off grade of 0.30%, the Indicated mineral resources, all of which are at the Banana Zone, had an average grade of 0.93% copper and 13.39 g/t silver. Also, at a copper cut-off grade of 0.30%, the Inferred Resources at the Banana Zone had an average grade of 0.65% copper and 8.14 g/t silver. At a copper cut-off grade of 0.75% the Inferred Resources at the Banana Zone had an average grade of 1.10% copper.

      For comparison, the April 2010 Inferred resource estimate at the Banana Zone had an average grade of 1.10% copper and 14.05 g/t silver, at copper cut-off 0.30%. At a copper cut-off grade of 0.75%, the Banana Zone had an average grade of 1.47% copper and 19.44 g/t silver. Therefore, the December 2010 Inferred Resource estimate had a copper grade which was 42% and 25% lower than the April 2010 Inferred Resource estimate at copper cut-off grades of 0.30% and 0.75%, respectively (Tables 1 and 2).



      Table 1. Change in Copper Grade of Inferred Resources

      Inferred Resource Estimate

      Copper cut-off - April 2010 - December 2010 - Change in Cu Grade
      (%) Cu (%) Cu (%) (%)


      0.30 1.10 0.64 -42
      0.75 1.47 1.10 -25


      Table 2. Change in Silver Grade of Inferred Resources

      Inferred Resource Estimate

      Copper cut-off - April 2010 - December 2010 - Change in Ag Grade
      (%) Ag (g/t) Ag (g/t) (%)


      0.30 14.05 8.14 -42
      0.75 19.44 14.98 -23


      Given the significant difference in the copper and silver grades of the two resource estimates, the Company both internally, and through a third-party consultant, completed an extensive review on the December 2010 resource model. The consultant recently submitted the findings of this audit to the Company. The audit concluded that many of the parameters used in the December 2010 resource estimate may have not been appropriate. Therefore, based on this audit, management believes that it would be prudent that a new resource model be developed using parameters more suitable to the geometry of the Banana Zone deposit. Based on the results of this audit, it is the opinion of the Company that the actual copper and silver grades of the new resource estimate could be materially different from the December resource estimate.

      Therefore, given that management has decided to calculate a new resource estimate, which will incorporate all of the results from the 2011 drilling campaign, the Company, in consultation with its board of directors, has concluded that it would be prudent to suspend the PEA until an updated resource estimate is calculated. This resource would be used to formulate a mine plan that maximizes the economics of the PEA.

      Management believes that by postponing the PEA it can more fully assess all the mineralized areas within the Banana Zone. The current infill drilling program is focusing on the New Discovery, Northeast Fold and South Limb areas of the Banana Zone. The drilling program will also encompass drilling along strike and at depth so as to further evaluate the viability of underground mining.



      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "Now that we have a better understanding of the geological model, going forward with the inclusion of the 50,000 metre infill drilling program, our expectations are of a positive, more accurate, resource model which reflects the unique geometry of the deposit more closely."

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - May 30, 2011) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce its most recent drilling results from the completion of 27 infill diamond drill holes in the Banana Zone at its Ghanzi sediment hosted Copper-Silver Project in Botswana.

      Infill drilling was carried out on the North Limb area (between sections 63925 to 65750 at North Limb North; Figures 1 and 2) to convert a substantial amount of the NI 43-101 compliant resources within this area into the Indicated category from the Inferred category.

      These results are from new holes and are in addition to those used in the most recent NI 43-101 compliant Inferred mineral resource calculation (see Table 1 at the end of this press release for the results from all 27 drill holes). The mineralization remains open at depth.


      (...)


      Discussion of Results:

      The infill drilling program at North Limb North has confirmed that copper-silver mineralization is continuous and has consistent widths and in some sections it bifurcates into two high-grade zones within a very wide, lower grade, mineralized envelope (Figure 3). This drilling will allow for the conversion more mineral resources from the Inferred category into the Indicated category.

      Development Update:

      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing:

      + Drilling is continuing at the Banana Zone (five core drills) with another drill expected to be mobilized to site within the next couple of weeks.

      + The Terms of Reference ("ToR") meeting was held recently with the Botswana Department of Environmental Affairs. The ToR will dictate the parameters of the Environmental Impact Assessment.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, Commented as Follows:

      "The infill drilling program continues to show that copper-silver mineralization at the Banana Zone is thick and has good continuity. We continue to be pleased with the results from the infill drilling program at the Banana Zone which will allow for the conversion of a substantial amount of Inferred Resources into the Indicated category."


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control:

      The drilling program and results are reviewed and approved by Fred Stahlbush, VP Engineering for Hana. He is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      Drill core is logged and photographed. Mineralized intervals are split in half by sawing and sampled at site. The remainder of the core is kept as a permanent record. Samples are placed into labelled bags, closed and packed into sealed bags that are shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratory in Johannesburg, South Africa. Hana has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program that includes the blind insertion of certified standards, duplicates and blanks into the sample stream.

      @MataHari,

      Habe bissl Verständnisprobleme:

      a) Was sind "Bulls*** Nachrichten"??

      Hier 2,3kleine Anmerkungen dazu: Die(serart) Meldungen sind IMO eher als ne Art Automatismus zu sehen, kann man leicht falsch verstehen. Sie sagen damit ja NICHT, dass sie "unterbewertet", oder sowas, sind. SONDERN NUR, dass sie keinen GEZIELTEN/SPEZIELLEN Grund für diesen Preisverfall sehen. Desweiteren ist das IMO auch immer/meist bissl "Politik/Psychologie, blablabla", bei Denen man Eckl Sensibilität für -eventuell gegebene- "between-the-lines-comments" mitbringen sollte. Je nach Interpretation/streng genommen kann man das IMO schon als halbe Lüge interpretieren(was sie in meinen Augen nicht die Bohne nötig haben) -die Neukalkulierung der Resource, damit einhergehend erhebliche Veschiebung der 1sten Wirtschaftlichkeitsschätzung, sowie des gesamten Timetables sind ja nun nicht unbedingt "no reason". Das kann man denke ich unterschiedlich sehen -aber die Geschichte an sich hat sich ja nun (aller Voraussicht nach)nicht geändert. Allerdings reagieren da ja großer Teil der Anlegertypen heutzutage IMO viel schneller "ungeduldig"(die (Faktor10 -100-)Wertschöpfung soll doch bitte in 5Minuten erfolgen :) :laugh: -maximal 10 :D ).

      Weiterer Punkt: Es ist ja, zu diesem Zeitpunkt, noch NAHEZU GAR KEINE WIRTSCHAFTLICHKEIT, basierend auf belastbaren Fakten, halbwegs abzuschätzen. Und dafür fandich die Bewertung im Peak schon halfway astronomisch.

      Wenn einiges gut geht könnte IMO noch einiges Potenziall vorhanden sein. Auch über das ATH hinaus.


      b) Wie habe ich "Harlot, yes, but traitor, never." zu verstehen?? :eek::eek: :laugh:


      Hana Mining Comments on Share Price-Drilling Continues - Jun 13, 2011
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/hana-mining-comments-on-sha…

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - June 13, 2011) -Hana Mining Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) (the "Company") announces that its recent share price performance is a result of fluctuations in the global capital markets and that it is not aware of any material undisclosed information or corporate developments that would account for the price volatility. The Company is well funded with approximately Cdn$20 million in cash. The Company is continuing with its 50,000 metre in-fill drilling program on the Banana Zone at its Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana. The results from this drilling campaign will be incorporated into a 43-101-compliant resource estimate. Assay samples are currently undergoing analytical analysis and results will be made public upon completion.


      On May 26, 2011 the Company announced that it had suspended the completion of the Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") at the Banana Zone. The PEA was suspended due to management's belief that the 43-101-compliant resource estimate, which was released on December 20, 2010 and forms the basis of the PEA, may underestimate copper and silver grades at the Banana Zone.

      Management has engaged a third-party consultant to complete a new resource estimate for the Banana Zone. Once a new resource estimate is completed, the Company will resume with the completion of the PEA. Hana will, at a later date, provide guidance on the timing of the completion of the resource estimate and the PEA.


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,149 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on December 20, 2010, announcing an Indicated mineral resource of 762 million pounds of copper and 16 million ounces of silver from 37.4 million tonnes at a grade of 0.93% copper and 13.4 g/t silver. All of the Indicated resources are from the Banana Zone. There are also Inferred resources of 5.6 billion pounds of copper and 85.4 million ounces of silver from 423.9 million tonnes. This Inferred mineral resource estimate consists of 225.4 million tonnes grading 0.64% Cu and 8.1 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 20.7 million tonnes grading 1.23% Cu and 8.7 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 16.7 million tonnes grading 0.86% Cu and 4.0 g/t Ag in Zone 6, and 161.1 million tonnes grading 0.45% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag in the Chalcocite Zone; all at a cut-off grade of 0.30% Cu.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper- Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources. "

      Hana Mining Ltd.: Infill Drilling Continues to Encounter Thick Intersections of Copper-Silver Mineralization Along the North Limb of the Banana Zone - Jun 16, 2011

      Highlights of recent drilling results:

      + The latest results confirm the continuity of copper-silver mineralization @the North Limb North area of the Banana Zone.

      + Intercepts of

      - 2.15% Cu &40.0 g/t Ag over 3.8 metres within a wider mineralized interval of 0.55% Cu &9.0 g/t Ag over 31.0 metres in hole HA-291-D,
      - 2.01% Cu &19.0 g/t Ag over 2.8 metres within a wider mineralized interval of 0.54% Cu &4.0 g/t Ag over 28.9 metres in hole HA-289-D,
      - 1.02% Cu &22.0 g/t Ag over 12.2 metres within a wider mineralized interval of 0.69% Cu &15.0 g/t Ag over 21.2 metres in hole HA-287-D, &
      - 0.91% Cu &18.0 g/t Ag over 4.0 metres within a wider mineralized interval of 0.45% Cu &6.0 g/t Ag over 24.7 metres in hole HA-294-D.


      + Infill drilling was carried out on the North Limb area(between sections 65835 to 66525 @North Limb North; Figures 1 &2) to convert a substantial amount of the NI 43-101 compliant resources within this area into the Indicated category from the Inferred category; results are from new holes &are in addition to those used in the most recent NI 43-101 compliant Inferred mineral resource calculation, mineralization remains open @depth.

      + infill drilling program @the North Limb North continues to confirm that copper-silver mineralization is continuous &has consistent widths &, again, in some sections it bifurcates into two high-grade zones within a very wide, lower grade, mineralized envelope(Figure 3). This drilling will allow for the conversion of more mineral resources from the Inferred category into the Indicated category. ...

      Über ähnliches habe ich auch schon nachgedacht, kann aber einfach keinerlei Indikation dafür sehen. Wobei es IMO schon äusserst komisch ist, wie sie zu der Annahme(Gehalte könnten besser sein) kommen, womit sie sich ja -wenns sich bestätigt- selber bescheinigen würden falsch gearbeitet zu haben. Genauer gehen sie da ja leider nicht drauf ein. Man kann es IMO nicht ganz ausschliessen, dass hier irgendetwas Schräges läuft, aber soweit ich es sehe deutet nichts auf vorsätzlichen Betrug hin.

      Was mir gerade noch auffällt/EXTREM verwundert -das letzte Posting hat der Typ 2Tage VOR der Meldung geschrieben. Sehr komisch. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

      Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 41.664.980 von Popeye82 am 17.06.11 23:27:49Komisch fand ich, daß das Unternehmen den jetzigen Aktienkurs in einer Pressemitteilung kommentiert hat. Eher ungewöhnlich. Gegen das aktuelle Shorten des Minenindex kommt auch Hana nicht an, trotz der Top Aussichten.
      Derweil rutscht New Hana Mining auch immer weiter ab und gibt es bald gratis.
      Ich stehe in den Startlöchern um nachzulegen. Ich könnte mir vorstellen, die 1 Euro bei Hana und 0,20 bei New Hana kurzfristig zu sehen....

      Hallo Brunzel,

      Also sooo ungewöhnlich ist das m.A.n. nicht. Und bei HMG gehört das ja, ganz im Gegenteil, schon fast zur Tradition. ;)

      Zu den -weiteren- Aktienkurschancen möcht ich mal nicht konkreter äussern, wobei beide Chancen haben dürften, allen voran -nach derzeitiger FAKTENlage- sicher HMG.

      Aber aufpassen -hier hast Du es mit einem RICHTIGEN Unternehmen zu tun. ;)

      Hana Mining Grants Incentive Stock Options - Jul 25, 2011
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/hana-mining-grants-incentiv…

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - July 25, 2011) - Hana Mining Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) (the "Company") announces that it has granted Incentive Stock Options (the "Options") to purchase up to an aggregate 2,650,000 common shares of the Company to directors, officers, employees and consultants. The Options are exercisable at $2.54 per share and expire on July 22, 2016. All securities issued upon exercise of the Options are subject to a hold period expiring four (4) months after the date of grant. The subject Options will vest over 24 months, in 8 equal tranches, with the first tranche vesting on the date of grant and thereafter at the end of every successive quarterly period. The Options are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company's Stock Option Plan.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "Recently the Company announced the appointments of new members to its board of directors. These new board members, who are pillars of the mining industry with considerable experience and technical capabilities, have in their brief time on the Company's board, devoted considerable time and effort in providing guidance and direction to the Company. Therefore, we think it was appropriate to compensate our new board members in a way that aligns their goals with that of the Company's shareholders."

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - July 26, 2011) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce its most recent drilling results from the completion of eight infill diamond drill holes in the Banana Zone at its Ghanzi sediment hosted Copper-Silver Project in Botswana.

      Infill drilling was carried out on the North Limb area (between sections 66725 to 67625 at North Limb North; Figures 1 and 2) to convert a substantial amount of the NI 43-101 compliant resources within this area into the Indicated category from the Inferred category.

      These results are from new holes and are in addition to those used in the most recent NI 43-101 compliant Inferred mineral resource calculation (see Table 1 at the end of this press release for the results from all 10 drill holes). The mineralization remains open at depth.



      (...)

      Discussion of Results:

      The infill drilling program at the North Limb North continues to confirm that copper-silver mineralization is continuous and has consistent widths and, again, in some sections it bifurcates into two high-grade zones within a very wide, lower grade, mineralized envelope (Figure 3). This drilling will allow for the conversion of more mineral resources from the Inferred category into the Indicated category.

      Development Update

      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing:


      + The Terms of Reference ("ToR") meeting was held recently with the Botswana Department of Environmental Affairs. The ToR will dictate the parameters of the Environmental Impact Assessment.

      + Work is also continuing on the metallurgy of the oxide material at the Banana Zone.

      + Regional soil geochemistry is ongoing at the Baby Banana and Peeled Banana Zones.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "This is the fourth batch of assay results from the North Limb North area and, again, we continue to intersect good concentrations of copper and silver mineralization over considerable widths. As we continue to carry out infill drilling on the Northeast Fold and South Limb areas of the Banana Zone we expect that we will continue to intersect good widths of robust copper-silver mineralization."


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      The drilling program and results are reviewed and approved by Marek Kreczmer, Chief Executive Officer for Hana. He is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      Drill core is logged and photographed. Mineralized intervals are split in half by sawing and sampled at site. The remainder of the core is kept as a permanent record. Samples are placed into labelled bags, closed and packed into sealed bags that are shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratory in Johannesburg, South Africa. Hana has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program that includes the blind insertion of certified standards, duplicates and blanks into the sample stream.


      About Hana's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,149 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on December 20, 2010, announcing an Indicated mineral resource of 762 million pounds of copper and 16 million ounces of silver from 37.4 million tonnes at a grade of 0.93% copper and 13.4 g/t silver. All of the Indicated resources are from the Banana Zone. There are also Inferred resources of 5.6 billion pounds of copper and 85.4 million ounces of silver from 423.9 million tonnes. This Inferred mineral resource estimate consists of 225.4 million tonnes grading 0.64% Cu and 8.1 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 20.7 million tonnes grading 1.23% Cu and 8.7 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 16.7 million tonnes grading 0.86% Cu and 4.0 g/t Ag in Zone 6, and 161.1 million tonnes grading 0.45% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag in the Chalcocite Zone; all at a cut-off grade of 0.30% Cu.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources.

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Aug. 29, 2011) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce its most recent drilling results from the completion of 11 infill diamond drill holes in the Banana Zone at its Ghanzi sediment hosted Copper-Silver Project in Botswana.

      Infill drilling was carried out on the South Limb area (between sections 59075 to 60075 at South Limb South; Figures 1 and 2) to convert a substantial amount of the NI 43-101 compliant resources within this area into the Indicated category from the Inferred category.

      These results are from new holes and are in addition to those used in the most recent NI 43-101 compliant Inferred mineral resource calculation (see Table 1 at the end of this press release for the results from all 11 drill holes). The mineralization remains open at depth.


      (...)


      Discussion of Results:

      The infill drilling program at the South Limb continues to confirm that copper-silver mineralization is relatively high-grade and continuous along strike at the South Limb (Figure 3). This drilling will allow for the conversion of more mineral resources from the Inferred category into the Indicated category.

      Development Update

      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing:


      + Work on the revised resource estimate for the Banana Zone is continuing as expected and the Company expects to provide a timetable for the completion of the resource estimate within the next few weeks.

      + Work has also re-commenced on the Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA"). The company will soon provide guidance on the timing of the completion of the PEA.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "Again the drilling at the South Limb South area continues to demonstrate that high-grade copper-silver mineralization is continuous along strike. I also note that the drilling was carried out to shallow depths, so there is still considerable exploration upside at depth (down dip) within this area."


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      The drilling program and results are reviewed and approved by Marek Kreczmer., Chief Executive Officer for Hana. He is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      Drill core is logged and photographed. Mineralized intervals are split in half by sawing and sampled at site. The remainder of the core is kept as a permanent record. Samples are placed into labelled bags, closed and packed into sealed bags that are shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratory in Johannesburg, South Africa. Hana has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program that includes the blind insertion of certified standards, duplicates and blanks into the sample stream.


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,149 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on December 20, 2010, announcing an Indicated mineral resource of 762 million pounds of copper and 16 million ounces of silver from 37.4 million tonnes at a grade of 0.93% copper and 13.4 g/t silver. All of the Indicated resources are from the Banana Zone. There are also Inferred resources of 5.6 billion pounds of copper and 85.4 million ounces of silver from 423.9 million tonnes. This Inferred mineral resource estimate consists of 225.4 million tonnes grading 0.64% Cu and 8.1 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 20.7 million tonnes grading 1.23% Cu and 8.7 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 16.7 million tonnes grading 0.86% Cu and 4.0 g/t Ag in Zone 6, and 161.1 million tonnes grading 0.45% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag in the Chalcocite Zone; all at a cut-off grade of 0.30% Cu.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources.

      zuletzt habe ich in cad erlebt, dass ein ganzer tag rückabgewicklet wurde.
      grund dafür waren aber auch revidierte bohrergebnisse!

      mal schaun was kommt. wei lange benötigen die denn für eine entscheidung?

      Wenn ich nur die Stellung der Geld/Brief Kurse sehe ( Bei New Hana ist der Spread 48%) wird mir übel.

      Hana Mining Ltd.: Infill Drilling Encounters Consistent High-Grade Copper-Silver Mineralization Along the Northeast Fold of the Banana Zone


      VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/09/12 -- Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") - (TSX VENTURE: HMG)(FRANKFURT: 4LH) is pleased to announce its most recent drilling results from the completion of 14 infill diamond drill holes in the Banana Zone at its Ghanzi sediment hosted Copper-Silver Project in Botswana.

      Infill drilling was carried out on the Northeast Fold area (between sections 69125 to 70425 at the Northeast Fold; Figures 1 and 2) to convert a substantial amount of the NI 43-101 compliant resources within this area into the Indicated category from the Inferred category.

      These results are from new holes and are in addition to those used in the most recent NI 43-101 compliant Indicated and Inferred mineral resource calculation (see Table 1 at the end of this press release for the results from all 14 drill holes). The mineralization remains open at depth.

      To view Figures 1-3, please visit the following link: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/hmg106i.pdf.

      Highlights of recent drilling results:

      -- The latest results continue to confirm the continuity of copper-silver
      mineralization at the Northeast Fold area of the Banana Zone.
      -- Core lengths intercepts of
      -- 2.17% CuEq(1), (1.82% Cu and 24.0 g/t Ag) over 8.0 metres within a
      wider mineralized interval of 0.96% CuEq (0.79% Cu and 12.0 g/t Ag)
      over 24.7 metres in hole HA-434-D,
      -- 2.59% CuEq(1), (1.98% Cu and 42.0 g/t Ag) over 4.5 metres within a
      wider mineralized interval of 1.34% CuEq (1.05% Cu and 20.0 g/t Ag)
      over 10.0 metres in hole HA-407-D,
      -- 1.21% CuEq(1), (1.17% Cu and 3.0 g/t Ag) over 1.5 metres within a
      wider mineralized interval of 0.22% CuEq (0.19% Cu and 2.0 g/t Ag)
      over 15.7 metres in hole HA-441-D,
      -- 0.94% CuEq(1), (0.85% Cu and 6.0 g/t Ag) over 7.9 metres within a
      wider mineralized interval of 0.52% CuEq (0.45% Cu and 5.0 g/t Ag)
      over 27.7 metres in hole HA-439-D.

      (1) Copper equivalent calculated using US$3.00/lb Cu, US$30/oz Ag and is not adjusted for metallurgical recoveries. The formula used is as follows: CuEq = Cu% + (Ag g/t x 0.01458).

      Discussion of Results:

      These are the first set of results from the 2011 infill drilling program for the Northeast Fold area which is located at the most northeast part of the Banana Zone. This area consists of a plunging anticline where thick intervals of copper mineralization were encountered. Like many parts of the North Limb North area, high-grade copper silver mineralization at the Northeast Fold bifurcates and is contained within a broader low grade mineralized envelope. Mineralization at the Northeast Fold is open along plunge and along dip of this anticlinal structure. Further infill drilling results from the Northeast Fold are expected soon.

      Development Update

      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing:

      -- Work on the revised resource estimate for the Banana Zone is continuing
      as expected and the Company expects to release the results of this
      resource estimate in the second quarter of 2012.
      -- Work continues on the Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") which is
      also expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2012.

      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "The Northeast Fold is another key area where we are investigating the potential of open pit and underground mining operations. Not only is mineralization open along dip along the limbs of the folds in this area, but also along plunge of the top of the fold. This area is also attractive given that relatively high-grade mineralization is found over thick intersections."

      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      The drilling program and results are reviewed and approved by Marek Kreczmer, Chief Executive Officer for Hana. He is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      Drill core is logged and photographed. Mineralized intervals are split in half by sawing and sampled at site. The remainder of the core is kept as a permanent record. Samples are placed into labelled bags, closed and packed into sealed bags that are shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratory in Johannesburg, South Africa or Scientific Services Laboratories in Cape Town, South Africa. Hana has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program that includes the blind insertion of certified standards, duplicates and blanks into the sample stream.

      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,149 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on December 20, 2010, announcing an Indicated mineral resource of 585 million pounds of copper and 12 million ounces of silver from 19.7 million tonnes at a grade of 1.35% copper and 19.7 g/t silver. All of the Indicated resources are from the Banana Zone. There are also Inferred resources of 2.4 billion pounds of copper and 40.6 million ounces of silver from 91.2 million tonnes. This Inferred mineral resource estimate consists of 69.9 million tonnes grading 1.10% Cu and 14.98 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 13.4 million tonnes grading 1.66% Cu and 12.11 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 6.3 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 6.7 g/t Ag in Zone 6, and 1.6 million tonnes grading 0.85% Cu and 6.4 g/t Ag in the Chalcocite Zone; all at a cut-off grade of 0.75% Cu.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources.

      Jaci,

      Zu "West Africa- &/SN Mineral Mining" hast Du meinen Segen -aber Da bist Du hier vollkommen an der falsche Adresse. Hier wird versucht ein Projekt von Internationaler Klasse zu entwickeln. Eveeentuell könnte es auch noch Weltklasse werden.

      Ergo würde ich Dich bitten diese Pauschalisierungen mal bissl stecken zu lassen. :)

      Das Projekt ist Weltklasse und mit der SN Mineral Mining nicht zu vergleichen.
      Die SN hat gerade erst angefangen und muß sich erst beweisen.

      Wobei ich hier mehr auf die New Hana spekuliere, auf das sie ähnliche Vorkommen nachweisen wird, wie Hana Mining es vorgemacht hat....

      Hi Brunzel,

      Das ist denke ich Definitionssache. Bei Kupfer ist das ja glaube ich nicht so präzise definiert wie z.B. bei Öl(giant fields ...).


      Von daher versuche ich dann lieber nicht zu übertreiben/zusehr Gefahr in der Richtung zu laufen, und wenn es "noch einen "Bonus" obendrauf gibt" -umso besser. "Overstatement" ist nun mal nicht die Grundlage für erfolgreiches agieren(u.a. an der Börse). ;)

      die Silbergewinnungsquote sieht spitzenmässig aus. Wohingegen beim Kupfer, auch wenn die Konzentratwerte m.A.n. astronomisch hoch sind, die Gewinnungsquoten richtig mies aussehen.

      Kann mir das nicht speziell erklären, aber das ist auch nicht mein "Gebiet". Mal looocker 25%++ weniger Gewinnungsquote dürfte schon nicht nette Auswirkungen auf die Wirtschaftlichkeitskalkulation haben, da scheints auch nicht verwunderlich dass er daraufnicht eingeht. Wobei sich das aufs Oxidmaterial bezieht, beim Sulfid hatten sie zurvor Testergebnisse von 92.75% Kupfer/80.58% Silber. Kann man nur hoffen dass das nur als ein "Prozesszwischenschritt" zu verstehen ist, der im Ergebnis noch deuuutlich bessere Ergebnisse bringen wird:

      Hana Announces Exceptional Silver Recoveries From Oxide-Transitional Material @the Banana Zone; test data will be used to develop a process flow sheet, to identify further testing requirements, +to develop capital +operating costs for the Preliminary Economic Assessment which is scheduled to be completed in ´12 - Oct 3, 2011

      + Initial locked cycled tests on a master composite sample, containing both oxide +transition material, @a coarse grind size of 143 microns, show a copper recovery of 49.9% +an exceptionally high silver recovery of 87.7%.

      + A final concentrate grade of 48.1% copper and 764.0 g/t silver was achieved at the above stated recoveries.

      + The metallurgical work on the master composite, prepared to represent typical oxide and transition ore mineralization, demonstrates that it is possible to co-process this type of mineralization with the Ghanzi copper sulphide mineralization without a detrimental effect by using similar processing conditions.

      + Characterization of samples of oxide and oxide to sulfide transition mineralization, is ongoing so as to determine the effect of the variability in copper mineralization on the metallurgical response. ...

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Oct. 24, 2011) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") - (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce that it has appointed Mr. Adrian Hutchings as Technical Manager – Mining of the Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project. Mr. Hutchings has decades of experience as a mining engineer in the development and management of mining projects in southern Africa. Mr. Hutchings' most recent experience was with Zimplats Holdings Limited ("Zimplats") where he spent over 10 years, most recently as the Group Consulting Mining Engineer, and was responsible for the planning, commissioning and management of Zimplats' open-pit operations and their four underground mines in Zimbabwe. Prior to working for Zimplats, Mr. Hutchings spent over 30 years as a mine manager for Anglo American PLC :eek: developing and operating mines in southern Africa. Mr. Hutchings has considerable experience in developing and mining discrete and challenging ore bodies in southern Africa.


      Mr. Hutchings will be based in Johannesburg, South Africa where Hana is setting up a technical office to manage the engineering and development of the Ghanzi Project. Mr. Hutchings has been granted 200,000 incentive stock options exercisable at a price of $1.55 per share expiring on October 21, 2016.

Already, Mr. Hutchings in collaboration with, Mr. Rob Dey, our Project Director, and Mr. Sas Burgers, our Chief Geologist, has already started work on the development of a standalone mining project at the Banana Zone which we expect to a be highly viable endeavor. I am also comforted by the fact that Mr. Hutchings and Mr. Dey have worked extensively together in the past in developing world-class mining assets :eek: in southern Africa."


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,149 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on December 20, 2010, announcing an Indicated mineral resource of 762 million pounds of copper and 16 million ounces of silver from 37.4 million tonnes at a grade of 0.93% copper and 13.4 g/t silver. All of the Indicated resources are from the Banana Zone. There are also Inferred resources of 5.6 billion pounds of copper and 85.4 million ounces of silver from 423.9 million tonnes. This Inferred mineral resource estimate consists of 225.4 million tonnes grading 0.64% Cu and 8.1 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 20.7 million tonnes grading 1.23% Cu and 8.7 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 16.7 million tonnes grading 0.86% Cu and 4.0 g/t Ag in Zone 6, and 161.1 million tonnes grading 0.45% Cu and 3.6 g/t Ag in the Chalcocite Zone; all at a cut-off grade of 0.30% Cu.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources. "

      Hana Mining Ltd.: Infill Drilling Again Encounters Consistent High-Grade Copper-Silver Mineralization Along the North Limb of the Banana Zone; Marek Kreczmer: "@North Limb North we drilled a total of 94 drill holes in which almost every drill hole intersected significant concentrations of copper-silver mineralization. This drilling not only confirmed the consistent high-grade mineralization of this area, but also identified areas within North Limb North that had multiple zones of high-grade copper-silver mineralization" - Nov 7, 2012

      Hana Provides Update on Its Activities - Nov 17, 2011
      www.marketwire.com/press-release/hana-provides-update-on-its…

      VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 17, 2011) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to provide an update on the activities at its 70%-owned Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in northwestern Botswana. The Company is making good progress at the Ghanzi Project.


      Specifically the Company is:

      + Close to completing the 40,000 metre infill drilling program at the New Discovery, North Limb, Northeast Fold and South Limb areas of the Banana Zone. So far Hana has completed 291 drill holes comprising just over 37,500 metres at the Banana Zone. With 8 drills on the property, the drilling program is expected to be completed by the middle of December.

      + Continuing work on the Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") for the Banana Zone. The PEA is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2012 and is expected to investigate open-pit and underground mining operations and conventional milling and flotation recovery methods.

      + Continuing work on the updated resource estimate for the Banana Zone. The Company is making good progress in constructing a new resource model. The results of the new resource estimate will be released in conjunction with the PEA in the second quarter of 2012.

      + Making progress working with the Government of Botswana in addressing the project's power needs. The Company believes that over the few quarters that it will make even more headway in addressing its power requirements.

      As of November 15, 2011 the Company has a strong cash balance of approximately Cdn$13 million dollars and no debt.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "So far 2012 has been a very active year for Hana Mining and we have made great strides in moving the Ghanzi Project forward. The key highlights so far this year have been:

      + The near completion of the 40,000 infill drilling program at the Banana Zone.

      + The establishment of a technical office in Johannesburg, South Africa, which is only a four-hour drive from Botswana's capital Gabarone and a further 10 hour drive to the Ghanzi Project. The activities of this technical office will be managed by Mr. Robert Dey, and his newly established team, which will manage the activities at the Banana Zone and to lead the work going into the PEA.

      + The completion of all of the preliminary metallurgical work on the oxides, transitional material and the sulphides at the Banana Zone. We were extremely pleased with the results from the metallurgical test work which confirms that the mineralized material from the Banana Zone is amenable to conventional flotation recovery methods and will produce a very high quality copper-silver concentrate.

      + The successful delineation of water resources near the Banana Zone. The work carried out so far demonstrates that there is more than enough water to meet the needs of conventional milling and processing activities at the Banana Zone.

      + The Completion of the Baseline Environmental and Social Studies for the Banana Zone and the approval of the environmental Terms of Reference for the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment by the Botswana Department of Environmental Affairs.

      + The recommencement of regional exploration activities at the Ghanzi Property which will be led by Mr. Sas Burgers who was recently appointed Chief Geologist for the Ghanzi Project.

      + The appointments of Messrs. Alexander Davidson, Kenneth Gillis and Michael Houston to the Company's board of directors. All three gentlemen have considerable experience in the global mining industry and have so far been instrumental in guiding the Company over the last few months.


      Going forward I am excited that we are getting close to the completion of the 40,000 metre infill drilling program and that we are making great progress on the PEA which I believe will demonstrate that the Banana Zone will be a robust project."

      "VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 21, 2012) - Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH) is pleased to announce its most recent drilling results from the completion of 12 infill diamond drill holes in the Banana Zone at its Ghanzi sediment hosted Copper-Silver Project in Botswana.

      Infill drilling was carried out on the Northeast Fold area (between sections 70125 to 70725 at the Northeast Fold; Figures 1 and 2) to convert a substantial amount of the NI 43-101 compliant resources within this area into the Indicated category from the Inferred category.

      These results are from new holes and are in addition to those used in the most recent NI 43-101 compliant Indicated and Inferred mineral resource calculation (see Table 1 at the end of this press release for the results from all 12 drill holes). The mineralization remains open at depth.


      Highlights of recent drilling results:


      + The latest results demonstrate that Banana Zone contains areas which host high-grade copper-silver mineralization.

      + Core lengths intercepts of

      Discussion of Results:

      These are the second set of results from the 2011 infill drilling program for the Northeast Fold area which is located at the most northeast part of the Banana Zone. This area consists of a plunging anticline where up to four intervals of high-grade copper mineralization within a broader low grade mineralized envelope were encountered within the hanging siltstones and mudstones and footwall sandstones. These high-grade veins of mineralization represent new exploration targets. Exploration drilling will continue at the Northeast Fold to identify and expand these high-grade mineralized zones. High-grade mineralization at the Northeast Fold remains open along plunge and along dip of this anticlinal structure. Further infill drilling results from the Northeast Fold are expected soon.

      Development Update

      The following engineering and consultation activities are ongoing:


      + Work on the revised resource estimate for the Banana Zone is continuing as expected and the Company expects to release the results of this resource estimate in the second quarter of 2012.

      + Work continues on the Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") which is also expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2012.


      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "Several months ago our geologists were tasked to formulate a new geological model which would allow us to identify areas within the Banana Zone, and other parts of the Ghanzi Project, that may host high-grade copper-silver mineralization. After a concerted core re-logging campaign, involving over 300 drill holes, and interpretation, our geological team was able to identify additional stratigraphic and structural parameters which may contribute to the deposition of high-grade copper-silver mineralization. This hypothesis is currently being currently tested, with tremendous :eek: success, in the Northeast Fold area. Later, we will test this geological model elsewhere at the Banana Zone and other areas of the Ghanzi Project. Unfortunately, because of time constraints, not all of these drill holes will be included in the upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment but will be included in the forthcoming Feasibility Study."

      "If our hypothesis proves to be successful elsewhere at the Banana Zone it will have a tremendous impact on Ghanzi Project :eek: and the rest of the Kalahari Copper Belt :eek: :eek: :eek: ."


      Qualified Person and Quality Assurance/Quality Control

      The drilling program and results are reviewed and approved by Marek Kreczmer, Chief Executive Officer for Hana. He is the qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this press release.

      Drill core is logged and photographed. Mineralized intervals are split in half by sawing and sampled at site. The remainder of the core is kept as a permanent record. Samples are placed into labelled bags, closed and packed into sealed bags that are shipped to ALS Chemex Laboratory in Johannesburg, South Africa or Scientific Services Laboratories in Cape Town, South Africa. Hana has implemented an industry-standard QA/QC program that includes the blind insertion of certified standards, duplicates and blanks into the sample stream.


      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,149 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres. Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Ghanzi Project on December 20, 2010, announcing an Indicated mineral resource of 585 million pounds of copper and 12 million ounces of silver from 19.7 million tonnes at a grade of 1.35% copper and 19.7 g/t silver. All of the Indicated resources are from the Banana Zone. There are also Inferred resources of 2.4 billion pounds of copper and 40.6 million ounces of silver from 91.2 million tonnes. This Inferred mineral resource estimate consists of 69.9 million tonnes grading 1.10% Cu and 14.98 g/t Ag in the Banana Zone, 13.4 million tonnes grading 1.66% Cu and 12.11 g/t Ag in Zone 5, 6.3 million tonnes grading 1.5% Cu and 6.7 g/t Ag in Zone 6, and 1.6 million tonnes grading 0.85% Cu and 6.4 g/t Ag in the Chalcocite Zone; all at a cut-off grade of 0.75% Cu.

      The Banana Zone exhibits certain areas of higher grade Cu and Ag mineralization, particularly between sections 49700 to 52000 on the North limb and sections 63000 to 71000 on both the North and South limbs, which represent an opportunity to locate starter pits and mine initial tonnages at higher than average grades. These higher grade pockets tend to be well within open pit depth parameters and represent opportunities to improve early cash flow and overall returns in development.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study is currently underway (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction has begun on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper- Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources.

      Hana Mining Ltd.: Diamond Drilling Extends the Strike +Down Dip Extension of High-Grade Copper-Silver Mineralization @the Northeast Fold of the Banana Zone; M. Kreczmer: "The latest outstanding drilling results are again due to the application of our new geological model to the NEF area of the Banana Zone in which high-grade copper-silver mineralization was encountered not only in the hanging wall of the D'Kar siltstone but also as high-grade veins within the Ngwako Pan sandstone. The extensional drilling at NEF has increased the down-dip extension of copper-silver mineralization by an additional 50 meters which we expect will increase the grade +tonnes of Indicated +Inferred Resources @NEF.

      Auszug -zum Kassensturz:

      "... At January 31, 2012, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $9,149,780 and working capital of $8,317,908. The Company completed a non-brokered financing in February 2012, where it raised $14,923,775 by issuing a total of 11,054,648 common shares. Also the Company received a total of $199,000 from the exercise of stock options. ..."


      Operativ -Absatz2, 1ster Satz ist mein Lieblingssatz :eek: :D :

      "... For 2012, the Company expects to complete an updated 43-101-compliant resource estimate and a Preliminary Economic Assessment on the Banana Zone by the second quarter of calendar year 2012. Once the Preliminary Economic Assessment is complete the Company intends to commence work on a Feasibility study. The Company will also continue with infill core drilling at the Banana Zone and also resume work on a regional exploration program at the Ghanzi project during 2012.

      ...

      Due to repeated folding of the mineralized sedimentary horizon "there is a possibility of up to 600 :eek: :eek: kilometers strike length of mineralization in all zones." The mineralization ranges from 2 to 65 meters true width, with dips ranging between 5 to 80 degrees from horizontal. The deposit has been drill-tested to a maximum vertical depth of 600 meters from surface.

      The entire 64 kilometer strike length of Banana Zone has been drilled at a maximum of 200-meter spacing, with closer-spaced definition drilling along key intervals. Holes completed as at the end of September 2010 were eligible for inclusion in the resource estimate update. Only portions of the strike length of other mineralized areas have been drill-tested.

      ...

      Since the initial resource estimate released in June 2009, the amount of contained copper at the Ghanzi Project has increased by 115% and the contained silver by 97%. When compared to the mineral resource update released in June 2010, there has been an increase in contained copper by 43% and in contained silver by 48%.

      The results from drilling indicate that Banana Zone mineralization is predictable in its behavior. The true thickness of mineralization ranges from 2 to 42 meters at dips ranging from 5 to 60 degrees from horizontal. Mineralization thickness and grade vary by zone and subzone.

      Within Banana Zone, New Discovery area has continuous mineralization of greater than 0.5% copper up to true widths of 10 meters within a lower grade 0.1% copper envelope that averages a true thickness of 40 meters, and dips at approximately 55 degrees from horizontal. The north limb of Northeast Fold has a true thickness of mineralization ranging from 40 to 20 meters thick, with dips of 40 to 30 degrees, becoming shallower toward the fold closure to the northeast. The south limb of Northeast Fold is steeper with dips up to 85 degrees, and mineralization with a true thickness of less than 10 meters. Zones of greater than 0.5% copper range from 2 to 10 meters thick, and often occur in persistent parallel clusters. South Limb, which consistently behaves over its entire strike length even outside the 2 kilometer section that was definition drilled, dips from 65 to 80 degrees from horizontal, with an average mineralized true width of less than 10 meters, which may contain up to 50% of its dimension with greater than 0.5% copper.

      The three Banana Zone areas identified above "offer the opportunity to locate starter pits which would improve early cash flows and achieve better overall project economics than the average copper grade numbers would otherwise suggest". Early economics "are aided by the fact that the overburden, which is between 10 and 20 meters in width, is unconsolidated sand containing thin layers of calcrete that can be easily stripped prior to mining."

      The Chalcocite Zone has a true thickness that ranges from 5 to 80 meters, averaging 30 to 40 meters, with dips from 5 to 50 degrees from horizontal, flattening significantly into the fold closure at the southeast. There is a narrow high grade portion and from surface the down dip extent of drilled mineralization often exceeds one kilometer. This zone is still open at depth.

      The Banana Zone, including Chalcocite Zone is the most prospective development area, and has been the focus of the Company’s drilling and development efforts to date. Future work will be to locate and develop other areas on the license that have characteristics similar to Banana Zone.

      In addition to the exploration work described above, the Company has commenced engineering and pre-development studies to support a preliminary economic assessment (PEA) of the project. Environmental and socioeconomic baseline studies are ongoing and a PEIA (Preliminary Environmental Impact Assessment) was submitted. Initial public consultation meetings with
      various stakeholders were held and by year-end, the Terms of Reference (ToR) document had been submitted to the Department of Environmental Affairs to define the extent and contents of the project ESIA (Environmental and Socioeconomic Impact Assessment).


      Preliminary metallurgical, geotechnical and mine development studies were completed to support the preliminary economic assessment. Numerous engineering issues were addressed and these will provide the basis for the PEA. Water supply studies and water exploration drilling was completed to locate adequate supply to support the anticipated requirements for large-scale processing operations. Results were successful in identifying large water resources.

      In 2012, the Company intends to complete another 43-101 compliant resource estimate to more closely reflect the Banana Zones unique geometry and include the results from the 2011 drilling program. Exploration and development work on the Banana Zone and the rest of the license area will continue. It "is anticipated that a positive resource model will lead directly to further engineering and development to advance the Banana project to the Bankable Feasibility level." In addition to the pre-development work, the Company plans to continue exploration to identify and quantify new deposits away from the Banana Zone in several target areas on the approximately 150 km long property. ..."

      Hana Shares Commence Trading on the Botswana Stock Exchange

      http://at.marketwire.com/accesstracking/AccessTrackingLogSer… BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 05/23/12 -- Hana Mining Ltd. ("Hana" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HMG)(FRANKFURT:4LH)(BOTSWANA:HANA) is pleased to announce that it has received official approval for a secondary listing of its common shares on the Foreign Venture Capital Board of the Botswana Stock Exchange ("BSE"). The Company's common shares commenced trading this morning on the BSE under the code HANA. The Company's shares will continue to trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol HMG and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol 4LH.

      Hana Mining's CEO and Chairman, Marek Kreczmer, commented as follows:

      "The listing of the Company's shares on the BSE is an important step in enhancing the relationship of the Company with the government of Botswana in that it allows the people of Botswana to invest directly in the company and gives the company access to some of the largest investment funds in Africa. Also, by establishing a listing in Botswana, we are aligning the goals of the Company with the people of Botswana."

      About Hana Mining's Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project in Botswana:

      The Ghanzi Project is located in the center of the Kalahari Copper Belt in northwestern Botswana. The Ghanzi property covers 2,149 square kilometres, and contains sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits with a demonstrated cumulative tested strike length of 70 kilometres. This favorable geology extends over an estimated strike length of 600 kilometres.

      On May 14, 2012 Hana Mining released results of its most recent NI 43-101 compliant Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") for the Ghanzi Project. The PEA details a 10,000 tonne per day open-pit mining and milling operation at the Banana Zone and Zone 5 at an initial capital expenditure of US$285.5 million. This operation is expected to produce approximately 66.4 million pounds of copper and 878,000 ounces of silver annually over a minimum 13-year mine life.

      The project will benefit from proposed rail and power infrastructure expansions, along with proximity to local population centers and workforce. A feasibility study was carried out (funded by the World Bank and the governments of Botswana and Namibia) to support completion of a rail line link that would connect Botswana with the Namibian port of Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast. The closest existing railhead to port is at Gobabis, in Namibia, approximately 550 km from our property. Construction is well advanced on the 600MW expansion of the government-owned Moropule Power Plant, having secured US$825 million project funding in May 2009. The Ghanzi Copper-Silver Project is currently accessed by the paved Trans-Kalahari highway, which passes within 15 km of the property.

      The Ghanzi property is one of Africa's premier future copper-silver resources.

      Seit gestern bin ich hier dabei. Bei rund 30 Mio. cash, und wenn ich mir die PEA ansehe, ist das Risko nach unten begrenzt. Das ASK ist auch weitesgehend ausgedünnt. Einen 200-300 Prozent run kann ich mir durchaus vorstellen...

      Khoemacaue to start construction on Botswana underground copper mine in '16 - MT - Jun 11, 2015
      www.mining-technology.com/news/newskhoemacaue-start-construc…

      "Cupric Canyon Capital subsidiary Khoemacaue Copper Mining has announced plans to begin construction of an underground copper mine in Botswana's Kalahari copper belt in 2016.

      Khoemacaue regional manager Johannes Tsimako said the company secured government approval for the project earlier this year.


      The 3.6 million tonnes of ore produced at the copper mine would be refined to produce 50,000t of copper concentrate.
      "The plan is to utilise Boseto's processing infrastructure for the new mine."

      According to Tsimako, Khoemacaue offered $33m to acquire the Boseto copper mine, which is located near the proposed site.

      Boseto copper mine had been operated by Australia-based Discovery Metals, which is having its assets being liquidated.

      Tsimako told Reuters: "The plan is to utilise Boseto's processing infrastructure for the new mine."

      Established in 2010, private equity firm Cupric Canyon will buy undeveloped copper assets.

      The Botswana Government is also considering acquisition of a 15% stake in the planned copper operation.

      Located in Ngamiland in the Kalahari copper belt of north-west Botswana, the Boseto copper mine is 100% owned by Discovery Metals and being developed using open cut methods.

      Said to be part of the Ghanzi-Chobe fold belt, the mine comprises Zeta, Plutus and Petra prospects.

      The mine is found to contain copper in the form of chalcocite primarily. "
