Nicht nur den Adelongaktionären sondern allen bei denen bestimmte Leute
ihre Schmutz finger im Spiel haben .
Es ist dies ein Zusammenschluss einiger im Board wohlbekannter sog. Investoren (deutschsprachig),
mit dem Ziel den unbedarften Gierhälsen hier mal die Beutel zu schneiden.

Genau das meine ich!!
Euro am Sonntag hatte von Anfang an gewarnt, und es kommt genauso schlimm wie es befürchtet würde sogar 50-80% Einbruch nehmen wir jetzt gelassen hin ,stellt Euch mal vor das wäre vor 4 Monaten bekannt geworden
Aber die Zeit heilt ja oft viele Wunden und macht ja auch einen Aktiencrash egal, Hauptsache AEG wird wieder gehandelt .
Stellt Euch mal vor Ihr hättet das mit der KE vor dem 28.2 gewußt
es wäre die wahrste Panik hier ausgebrochen und von Klage die rede gewesen
aber so nehmen wir es alle gelassen hin und nehmen sogar an der KE teil ,ist ja super billig 0,20A$ .
Nur was ist, wenn der Kurs danach unter 0,20 bleibt?
und wie bei Terrex auch monatelang keine Umsätze da sind??
Denkt mal darüber nach ,wie euere Reaktion vor 4-5 Monaten wäre
wir werden nach Strich und Faden abgezockt und verkaufen alle mit verluste oder haben eine Depotleiche .

Hi Leute,
ist schon lustig mit der Adelong! Was für eine Panikmache um so einen Wert. Meine Güte konnten wir das letzte halbe Jahr lachen.
Spannend wird es alleml, falls die Aktie tatsächlich wieder gehandelt wird. Ich tippe, sollten die Aktien in diesem Umfeld erneut gelistet werden, auf mind. 50 % Abschlag am ersten Tag.
Für alle Betroffenen git es aber auch noch einen Hoffnungsschimmer. Die Aktien werden zuerst in Australien gehandelt und die machen dann auch den Kurs!
Grüße MrTrend

@ Frau Klemme,
ich denke, daß die kapitalerhöhung zu dem Preis schon mehr als fair ist, denn auf lange Sicht trau ich dem Titel durchaus noch was zu...auf jeden Fall mehr, als 0,20AUD. ich denke nicht, das die Teilnehmer langfristig bei verlieren werden...
Aber ihr wißt doch jetzt schon wieder alle, daß der Wert am ersten Tag so richtig geprügelt wird, dann verkauft nicht am ersten Tag, sondern wartet die Erholungsphase ab...
Oder traut ihr dem Unternehmen nichts mehr zu?
Nur, dann würde mich interessieren, warum ihr vor der Aussetzung investiert habt?
Was waren denn die Beweggründe?
Normalerweise weiß man bei solch riskanten Investitionen ja auch, das ein Totalverlust drohen kann und kalkuliere das auch ein...
Fazit: Seid froh, daß Adelong bald wieder gehandelt wird...
Grüsse und einen schönen Wochenanfang...

Den möglichen Kurseinbruch am ersten Handelstag infolge von Panikverkäufen wie von "Frau Klemme" und anderen muß man nicht unbedingt negativ sehen. Wenn die Aktie wirklich in den Bereich ihres Buchwertes fällt, bietet sich die seltene Chance, in eine Venture Capital Gesellschaft einzusteigen oder Bestände aufzustocken, ohne ein zu großes Risiko einzugehen. Gerade für jene, die zu relativ hohen Kursen die ersten Adelong-Aktien gekauft haben und weiterhin von einem künftigen Erfolg von Adelong ausgehen, dürfte dies interessant sein.
Ich bleibe dabei. Wann man denkt dass Adelong gerade unter der lupe genommen sind, dann sind die falsche sache in die reihe gebracht oder der war nicht falsch dran. Nur jemand mit eine grosse klappe.
I habe nicht viel investert. Grund regel nummer eins : Nicht mehr als 5% dein portfolio wert in High Risk Aktien anlegen.
Viel Gluck an alle,
Ich gehe mein Conti anschauen... (Das ist ein Kauf)

Wer sagt denn das AEG sich nach den Einbruch wieder erholt ??
Schau dir doch mal die Werte in Australien an Plx,Pcr,Dgm,Ucl,Lib,
da passiert gar nichts mehr

Niemand kann mit Bestimmtheit vorhersagen, daß sich Adelong wieder erholt. Deshalb werden einige auch zu jedem Preis am ersten Tag verkaufen. Je billiger man an die Aktien herankommt, desto geringer ist das Risiko, Verluste zu machen. Bottomfishing und auf den Turn-Around hoffen, ist meine Devise.
noch günstiger würde dabei der OS (wenig Kapitalbindung bei fast gleichen Chancen).
Hat schon jemand genauere Erfahrungen mit Orders in AUSTRALIEN ? (Gebühren, Ausführung der Order....?)
Ciao Romano

Australien: Order muß am Vortag bei Deiner Bank aufgegeben werden. Bis zu welcher Uhrzeit, bitte dort erfragen. Sofern Dein Limit erreicht wird, wirst Du - ggf. anteilig - berücksichtig. Da Gebühren von ca. 150.-- DM anfallen, sollte das Limit bei laufenden Notierungen nicht zu eng gesetzt werden. Ich empfehle, ca. 5% über den Schlußkurs vom Vortag. Das ist bei Adelong aber aufgrund der Handelsaussetzung nicht möglich. Du mußt hier nach Deinem persönlichen Gefühl zur Börsenstimmung und Deiner Einstellung zum Wert der Firma Dein Limit setzen. Wenn Du Deinen Bewertungsfaktor zu hoch setzt, machst Du Verluste; wenn Du ihn zu tief setzt, stehst Du aktienlos ohne Chance auf Gewinne da.
0,11 A$ Buchwert x persönlicher Bewertungsfaktor = Kauflimit

Hallo Leute,
bald wird es also "ernst" für uns. Die Untergangspropheten haben sich bereits versammelt. Von Kursstürzen um bis zu 80% ist die Rede.
Ich sage: das muß nicht sein. Das der Handels solange ausgesetzt war ist doch positiv. Wenn die Stimmung an der Börse wieder anzieht, wird AEG sicher nicht um 80% einbrechen. Ausserdem rechne ich noch mit der Bekanntgabe einer weiteren Beteiligung.
Bei Kursen unter 0.75€ (das wäre ein Verlust von ca. 35%) würde ich verbilligen bzw. zum Einstieg raten. Die Bekanntheit der AEG wird ihr noch sehr zugute kommen (was EamS schreibt, gleicht einer Fähnchen im Wind).
Abwarten!

Unbestritten ist Adelong die bekannteste Venture Capital Gesellschaft Australiens. Und bei deutschen Privatanlegern wohl die bekannteste australische Aktie überhaupt. Alleine das Euro am Sonntag schon zum dritten Mal über Adelong berichtet, zeigt, daß an diesem Wert ein hohes Interesse besteht. Offenbar hat die Redaktion zum Thema Adelong etliche Leserbriefe u.ä. erhalten. Der Bericht in der Wirtschaftwoche und auf der Startseite von Microsoft Network, so falsch er auch ist, trägt weiter zum Bekanntheitsgrad bei. Bekanntheit ist die Voraussetzung zum Erfolg. Eine Werbekampagne hätte dies kaum leisten können.
Hey da können wir uns ja echt freuen das Adelong so bekannt geworden ist (Ob Positiv oder Negativ ist ja scheinbar ganz egal)und sie in Zukunft alle meiden werden weil alle wissen was da abgelaufen ist
Echt Super!!
Echt Super!!
Kaum zu glauben !!
Es gibt wahrhaft noch leute die an Kurse von 50-70c glauben <respekt
Euer glaube wir bald wie die AEG Blase platzen
wir sprechen uns
Habe auch Pacific Rim steigt die dann auch auf 70C?
seid froh wenn die 20c nicht unterschritten wird
Ihr Träumer lol

@ Frau Klemme
In der Werbung ist es zwar nicht ganz egal, ob positiv oder negativ berichtet wird, aber negative Berichte sind für Newcomer besser als gar keine. Leute wie Regina Zindler haben mit ihrem schwachsinnigen Maschendrahtzaun sechststellig verdient. Zlatko aus Big-Brother wird dank seiner gehaltvollen Sprüche über Nacht zum Star. Es kommt in erster Linie darauf an, bekannt zu sein. Imagepflege - und damit Gagensteigerungen (bei Adelong: Kurssteigerung) - kommen später.
@ US Broker
Ich würde mich freuen, wenn Adelong unter 20 Cent fällt. Dann ist die Aktie wirklich zum Nachkaufen interessant. Kurse um 70 Cent lassen einfach zu wenig Spielraum nach oben.

Fourth Quarter Activities & Cashflow Reports
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
VANTECK VRB TECHNOLOGY CORP
Vanteck ("VRB") Technology Corp relisted on the CDNX on the 28th of
July, 2000. The $250,000 annual licence fee was paid to Pinnacle VRB
Limited 27th of May, 2000.
During the Quarter Vanteck entered into a Heads of Agreement with
Highveld Steel and Vanadium Corporation Limited of South Africa
("Highveld"). Highveld is a substantial steel and ferro-alloy
producer and is the world`s largest producer of vanadium. Under the
Heads of Agreement, Highveld, and Vanteck will initially form a 50:50
strategic alliance within Africa for the purpose of, among other
things to;
(i) Review the feasibility of establishing a vanadium electrolyte
manufacturing plant in South Africa primarily for the supply of
vanadium electrolyte for VRBs installed within Africa;
(ii) Conducting further research and development work on increasing
electrolyte concentrations (higher molarity); and
(iii) Developing the commercialisation of the VRB within Africa.
A strategic alliance of this calibre can only assist in progressing
the future of the VRB Technology and will assist greatly in Vanteck`s
growth throughout Africa.
The Company is currently in the final stages of negotiation to enter
into a new strategic alliance with a major African power utility with
the emphasis on establishing a commercial 520 kilowatt hour UPS
Vanadium Redox Battery in South Africa. These negotiations are
expected to be finalised during the month of August.
SLE (AUSTRALIA) PTY LTD
During the quarter, the Company agreed to increase its equity in SLE
(Australia) Pty Ltd ("SLE") by 10% to 50% by issuing 100,000 fully
paid shares. SLE owns the Luxalum, ("Glow-in-the-dark") pigment,
which has unique performance characteristics over and above other
competitors in this market. The technology utilised in the
manufacturing of the Luxalum pigment, is also believed to have
substantial uses in improving performance of other rare earth
pigments (ie EL Phosphors, which is primarily used in the colour
illumination of computer and television screens).
The Directors have decided to increase the equity position to the
maximum 50% some 3 months early, as allowed under the original
contract, to take advantage of the level of international interest
currently being shown for this product and process.
On 21st June, 2000, SLE advised that the Company had become
commercially viable and that the Company`s first order for 1 tonne
valued at $308,000 has been received from a major international
chemical company. A deposit of $154,000 has been received for this
first order.
SLE Directors report that this order is a trial order, which is
expected to lead to a negotiation to supply a minimum of 25 tonnes
per annum for 10 years. An International Patent Pending Application
had been lodged by SLE (Australia) Pty Ltd protecting its invention.
Directors are encouraged by the progress made by SLE (Australia) Pty
Ltd in such a short time.
PUBLICDEBATE.COM.AU
On 3rd July, 2000 the Company announced that Federation Resourccs NL
had sold 50% of it`s shares in Opinionex Pty Ltd to New Holland
Mining NL for the consideration of $80,000 and 12 million ordinary
fully paid shares in New Holland Mining NL.
Opinionex Pty Ltd, owned 50% of the shares in Publicdebate.com.au Pty
Ltd, which hosts the Australian current affairs website
www.publicdebate.com.au, now ranked around 20th position in the News
and Media category in Australia.
VISHOEK DIAMOND PROJECT, SOUTH AFRICA
Operations at Vishoek have been placed on care and maintenance
pending a review of the capital and operating requirements, submitted
by the South African management team, to increase the production at
Vishoek. Exploration and production for the quarter has confirmed an
average grade of 0.6 carats per 100 tonnes (simular to other
operations on the Orange River), with an average stone size of 2.5
carats per stone. It is anticipated that the Vishoek mine will be re-
opened during the next quarter, subject to approval by all parties of
the management plan.
MT CHALMERS COPPER and GOLD PROJECT
Federation holds a 100% equity in the Queensland copper and gold
property known as the Mt Chalmers project. With the recent
improvement in copper prices the Directors continuously review the
economics of this project an are involved in continuing discussions
with a view to expanding and consolidating the area.
GOLD EXPLORATION PROPERTIES IN VICTORIA
Federation still holds its gold exploration properties at Costerfield
and retains its interest in the Rushworth Joint Venture. The
Directors continue to evaluate these properties in line with the
movements in the gold price.
CORPORATE
The Company advised on 26th of July, 2000 that it had despatched a
Notice of General Meeting to all shareholders.
The General Meeting is to be held on 23 August 2000 at 10.00am at
Level 2, 108 Flinders Street, Melbourne Victoria 3000, with
resolutions to be considered at the meeting including the change of
the type of company to a company limited by shares, change of the
Company`s name to Federation Group Limited, the adoption of a new
Constitution and the ratification of previous placements.
Furthermore, the Company announced on 20th of July, 2000 that
pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 3.11.3, it has entered into an
underwriting agreement with William Noall Limited to fully underwrite
the options expiring 31 August 2000 (FDROB). The fee payable to
William Noall Limited for the underwriting of the above-mentioned
securities is for an agreed fee of $20,000. The Company is pleased to
have finalised such an agreement as it ensures an injection of a
further $860,100 cash into the Company, which represents the
unexercised options (FDROB) as at the date of the announcement.
TAKEOVER OFFER FOR PINNACLE VRB LIMITED
The Company announced on 18th of July, 2000 that it made an off
market bid for all Pinnacle VRB Limited listed securities. The offer
is conditional upon a minimum 30% acceptance in addition to further
commercial conditions which will be detailed in the Bidder`s
Statement.
The off market takeover(s) are on the following basis:
- 1 Federation Resources NL Ordinary Share For Every 5.5 Pinnacle VRB
Ltd Ordinary Shares.

Ltd Options Expiring 1 February, 2001 (PCEOA)

Fourth Quarter Activities & Cashflow Reports
QUARTERLY REPORT TO 30 JUNE 2000
ADELONG GOLD PROJECT
Efforts concentrated during the quarter on achieving a satisfactory
sale of the Adelong gold project to enable the Company to focus on
its investment activity. This culminated in an agreement being
reached with Onslow Minerals and Exploration NL on 5 July 2000 for a
consideration of $750,000. The sale is subject to a number of
conditions however, completion is anticipated by early September.
INVESTMENTS
On 11 April Adelong invested $250,000 into Smart News Group Limited,
an email based investor relations start-up company. Perth based Smart
News raised $1.5m seed capital ahead of a proposed public listing
later in 2000. Smart New`s provides corporate clients with a
personalised investor relations program based on web delivery via
email.
On 7 June Adelong committed to invest US$500,000 into a global
e-commerce fund, the second E-Trade E-commerce Fund. This fund will
adopt the same strategy as the first E-Trade E-commerce Fund which
is to invest into early to mid-stage companies, offering internet
related products and services or related infrastructure.
The fund will be managed by E-Trade Ventures, a Delaware limited
liability company controlled by Christos M Costakos and Thomas A
Bevilaqua. The Fund is offering approximately US$200m of limited
partnership interests to qualified investors. E-Trade`s first
E-commerce Fund has posted an internal rate of return in excess of
1900%.
Adelong continued to maintain and monitor its investments in e-Smart
Pty Ltd and FreeISP.com Limited and reviewed a number of other
potential investment opportunities.
CORPORATE
Adelong continued to finalise the legal and regulatory process to
achieve re-listing of its securities.
On 1 June, the Company announced a 1:6 non-renounceable entitlement
issue at an issue price of 20 cents per share together with 1 free
attaching option (20c/30 January 2003). The issue is underwritten by
CIBC World Markets. The fundraising will raise approximately A$3.8
million in additional working capital and allow Adelong to re-list as
an Investment Entity, one of the requirements for which is having net
tangible assets of at least A$15 million.
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, on 5 July Adelong lodged a
Prospectus with ASIC in relation to the entitlement issue and to
facilitate the re-listing process.
During the quarter, Mr Alvin Tan was appointed to the Board as an
Executive Director following the resignation of Mr Gary Crole. Mr Tan
has experience in investing, financial management and information
technology.
Mr Clive McKee, formerly a non-executive Director, was appointed as
Managing Director in June.

Fourth Quarter Activities & Cashflow Reports
WA 254-P, PARTS 1, 3 & 4, INCLUDING THE PROPOSED ARGOS-1 WELL
(CARNARVON 7.82%)
These areas are to the north and northwest of Dampier, with the Argos
prospect located offshore approximately 100km north of Dampier,
Western Australia.
The Argos Prospect was the subject of a re-interpretation based on
3D Pre Stack Depth Migration data sets recently compiled with the
results confirming Argos as a drillable prospect.
The development options for Argos are critically linked to the
development by the WA 1-P Joint Venture of the Legendre Oil Field to
the north of the prospect, in particular the production rates into
the Legendre facility. As a result, the likely timing for the
drilling of this prospect will be tied to when the Legendre facility
comes on line.
Argos is in a favourably located position on the downthrown side of
the Rosemary Fault System. The well is updip from the source kitchen
of the Lewis Trough and on trend with the Legendre Oil Field, the
southern extent of which is interpreted to lie approximately 2km
north of the prospect. The primary objective for Argos-1 is the B.
Reticulatum Sandstone, which is the sandstone that forms the
reservoir for the Legendre Oil Field.
WA 254-P. PART 2, INCLUDING THE SAGE-1 WELL
(CARNARVON 10.31%)
This area is located offshore approximately 90 km north northwest of
Dampier, Western Australia.
The Operator currently interprets the Sage discovery as sub-economic,
with estimated mean reserves of approximately 4 MMbbls of oil. The
likelihood of any exploitation of the discovery will be dependent on
a production facility being developed close by and a continuing high
oil price.
EP 110
(CARNARVON 46.545%)
This permit is located onshore/offshore at Onslow, Western Australia
and is adjacent to the Tubridgi Gas Field.
A prospect and lead review was recently carried out and a lead has
been identified to the east of Tubridgi for consideration.
On 24 January 2000 the Minister for Mines granted the renewal of the
permit for a term of five years, with effect from 24 January 2000.
The minimum work requirements of the renewal require one well to be
drilled in the third permit year and one offshore well to be drilled
in the fifth permit year.
A farmout of the Company`s interest in EP110 is presently being
negotiated.
EP 342
(CARNARVON 9.70873%)
The prospective eastern part of the permit is located offshore
approximately 30km south west of Onslow.
On 27 March 2000 the Minister for Mines granted the renewal of the
permit for a term of five years, with effect from 27 March 2000. The
minimum work requirements of the renewal require one well to be
drilled in the fourth permit year.
EP 325
(CARNARVON 1.8%)
The White Opal prospect is located immediately offshore from the
northern tip of North West Cape.
The operators, Victoria Petroleum NL, drilled the White Opal-1 well
to a total depth of 2,597m in March 2000. Wireline logs have
indicated minor residual hydrocarbons only, and the well was plugged
and abandoned.

Mining at Fosterville recommenced in April following a one-month
break. The break was needed to allow for the major move of the
stacker onto the second lift on the Fosterville leach heap pad. This
move will allow ore to be stacked and leached on top of existing
leached ore that now covers an extensive area. This avoids
significant additional capital costs that would be necessary if extra
pad space for more first lift stacking was developed. If the entire
second lift is filled then these savings are in the order of $2.0M.
The decrease in gold recovered during the quarter is in part due to
the slower recovery anticipated from stacking ore on the second lift
of the pad.
Mining was completed in the northern extension to the Central
Ellesmere pit and then commenced in the southern extension of the
Fosterville pit. The first significant winter rainfall in Victoria
for four years hampered mining operations through June and into July.
Despite some additional stripping in the Fosterville pit, the
stripping ratio for the quarter was lower than average at 2.7.
Overall geological reconciliations from the Central Ellesmere pit
were negative, with 10% less contained gold mined than was in the
mine model. This was due to extensive historic workings in the upper
benches. Reconciliations for the majority of the pit were positive
and the grades of ore in the base of this pit were excellent in the
area immediately above the sulphide zone. Geological reconciliations
from the Fosterville pit in the upper levels, similarly show an 11%
shortfall in contained gold mined to-date compared to the mine model.
The Rehe`s deposit was prepared for mining with trees cleared,
topsoil stripped and the haul road nearly completed. This pit will be
mined following the completion of the southern end of the Fosterville
pit.
Leaching from Central Ellesmere ore is approximately 25% slower than
is normally encountered at Fosterville. This is due to the ore having
a higher than normal clay content. This was apparent during mining
with extensive volumes of timber encountered that would have been
needed to support the old underground workings.
Metallurgical testwork carried out in the previous quarter
demonstrated that the low grade stockpile at Robbin`s Hill is
economic to treat as run-of-mine ore. A parcel of 21,000 tonnes at
0.42 Au g/t was stacked and irrigated successfully during the
quarter. This balance of this ore, amounting to 518,000 tonnes at
0.43 Au g/t, will be stacked on the Robbin`s Hill leach pad before
the end of the calender year.
MINESITE EXPLORATION
No exploration drilling was carried out on the mine during the
quarter.
DEVELOPMENT
Sulphide Plant Design
Negotiations continued for the purchase of a complete 1994-dated CIP
plant to provide the primary crushing, SAG milling and carbon
stripping sections necessary for the sulpbide treatment plant. If
these negotiations are successful then, together with other
refinements, the total capital expenditure for the Fosterville
Sulphides Project will have been reduced from the feasibility study
estimate of A$39.4M to A$27.3M.
Oxide Permitting
A further seven EES Consultative Committee meetings were held in the
June quarter with the hydrological, agronomy and hazard risk
assessment consultants` reports being tabled. The remaining
consultants` reports required to complete the EES are on
socio-economic issues and health assessment risks.
The hydrological report, which investigated both groundwater and
surface water, successfully demonstrated that with careful management
practices, the two mining proposals would have no adverse impact on
the environment. This was the most important of the technical reports
for the EES as water issues were seen to be the most important
technical issue by the local community. The completed Environment
Effects Statement document is still expected to be released in the
fourth quarter of the calender year for public review and comment, in
preparation for the panel hearing, which will produce a
recommendation regarding the proposals.
REGIONAL EXPLORATION
No regional exploration work was carried out during the quarter.
BAILIESTON GOLD MINE, VICTORIA
No gold was recovered from the Bailieston Mine during the quarter.

[2004] SQKM
[IMPERIAL MINING NL 25%, PEREGRINE MINERAL SANDS NL 50% (WHOLLY
OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF BEMAX RESOURCES NL, OPERATOR), PROBO MINING PTY
LIMITED 25%]
As announced to the ASX on 10 July 2000, Imperial and BeMaX have
entered into an agreement under which Imperial will transfer its 100%
ownership interest in Imperial Mining (Aust) NL ("Imp (Aust)") to
BeMaX, giving the BeMaX Group an additional 25% beneficial interest
in the Ginkgo Deposit and associated BIP Joint Venture properties.
In exchange, Imperial will receive 18.95 million fully paid BeMaX
shares and 1.75 million twenty-five cent options expiring in December
2001.
After allowing for the conversion of BeMaX`s 30 June 2000 series of
options and in the event that BeMaX does not place any further shares
up to the anticipated completion date as provided by the Share Sale
Agreement, the proposed issue and allotment of 18.95 million ordinary
shares to the Company would result in the Company acquiring 26.6% of
the voting shares in BeMaX.
Two representatives of Imperial will be invited to join the Board of
BeMax after completion of the transaction.
The sale is subject to approval of shareholders of both Imperial and
BeMaX. A Meeting of shareholders of Imperial to consider the
transaction is planned for early September 2000.

RESOURCE ESTIMATION CONFIRMS THE SIZE AND POTENTIAL OF THE GINKGO
DEPOSIT
An independent resource estimation of the Ginkgo Deposit was
undertaken by Snowden Mining Industry Consultants Pty Ltd (Snowden),
following receipt of more than 11,000 assays from AMDEL Laboratories.
Details were announced to the ASX on 2 May, 2000.
The deposit is approximately 12 km long and has been drilled on 29
traverses mostly 400m apart with drill hole spacing ranging from 25
to 100m on each line (Figure 3).
Snowden reported that:
"The resource estimate for the Ginkgo Deposit is 252 Mt at 2.8% total
heavy mineral (HM) above a 1% HM cut-off.
The resource was estimated via Ordinary Kriging within a nominal 1%
HM envelope. A density of 1.7 t/m(3) has been assumed, as per previous
resource estimates. No slimes or oversize cut-offs have been applied,
as these are at very low levels within the 1% envelope. No top cuts
were applied during Ordinary Kriging, based on statistical assessment
of the HM population within the defined envelope."
"In Snowden`s opinion, the resource should be classified as indicated
based on an examination of the mineralisation continuity. Once
density information is available it is likely that most of the
resource can be upgraded to a Measured classification. A Measured
classification would be subject to confirmation of the grain size and
proportion of the valuable heavy minerals within the heavy mineral
assemblage, as indicated by the work reviewed to date. It also
assumes all other criteria as described in the JORC guidelines are
met, such as confidence in the geological interpretation, surveying,
sampling and assaying."
Within the 1% HM envelope, the resource contains more than 7 million
tonnes of heavy minerals. The robust nature of the resource is
confirmed by a high grade core of 123 million tonnes @ 4.2% HM at a
cut-off grade of 2% HM. (See Table 1)
Imperial believes that these results are exciting and confirms the
belief that Ginkgo is one of the most significant heavy mineral sand
discoveries to date in the Murray Basin.

PILOT PLANT TESTWORK ON GINKGO MINERALISATION CONFIRM MARKETABLE
HEAVY MINERAL PRODUCTS
MD Mineral Technology Pty Ltd (MD) was retained to test a composite
sample from the Ginkgo Deposit. The results of this work indicate
that the Ginkgo mineral suite can potentially be processed into
commercial ilmenite, leucoxene, rutile and zircon products. Details
of this work were announced to the ASX on 3 April, 2000.
The first pass testing by MD indicates that ilmenite, rutile,
leucoxene and zircon products suitable for the market may be
produced. Further testing of these products is in progress with the
aim of improving the commercial specifications by changes in dry
plant processing, blending and chrome reduction of ilmenite.
The Board of Imperial is encouraged by these preliminary results as
they demonstrate a high potential to meet market specifications of
these products.
The results of the work to date indicate that there are, so far, no
technological issues that would inhibit the production of valuable
and marketable products from the Ginkgo deposit.

1.0 TECHNOLOGY INVESTMENTS
1.1 ICE INTERACTIVE LIMITED (BKS 40% fully diluted)
ICE interactive was formed in February 2000 to invest in the
development and customization of the Liberate Technologies
interactive television platform for the Australian market. Foundation
shareholders include Liberate Technologies (NASDAQ.LBRT,
www.liberate.com), and Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ: ORCL,
www.oracle.com). During the quarter ICE continued to develop the
business opportunities identified in the Prospectus issued by the
Company on 20 March 2000.
Good progress has been made in readiness for a pilot programme to be
launched in the September quarter. The pilot will initially be
conducted in the existing analog television environment in Australia
with interactive and Internet access via 56K modem dial-up (through
which the vast majority of Australian Internet connected households
get on-line).
The Company welcomes the decision by the Federal Communications
Minister, Senator Alston that Internet video streaming will not be
regarded as a broadcast service for the purposes of the Broadcasting
Services Act (video streaming results in TV quality moving pictures
being sent over the Internet to a remote computer or set top box).
This clarification of policy by the Government opens the way for ICE
Interactive to include high speed broadband services, in particular
video on demand (VOD) as part of its service platform.
During the quarter, AOL in the US launched an interactive TV service
made available to both subscribers and non-subscribers of its ISP
service, based on the Liberate platform for an analog television
environment. Similar to the AOL service, the interactive and enhanced
television applications presently under development by ICE are not
dependant on the introduction of digital television broadcast
services set to commence in Australia on 1 January 2001.
At present, there is an installed base of approximately 10 million
analog TV receivers in Australia, with annual sales of 1 million
sets. The Company believes that the planned pilot service deployed to
work initially in the analog broadcast environment will demonstrate
considerable value to individual consumers and communities of
interest and serve to develop the market. Overseas experience,
particularly in the US where after more than a year of digital
transmission the penetration of digital television receivers has been
very low, suggests that demand will be driven primarily by the
quality of enhanced content, the bundle of interactive services, open
Internet access and the ease of use.
A key objective of the initial analog/56K dial up service to be
tested by ICE Interactive in its forthcoming pilot is to demonstrate
the ability to deliver access to a broad market on-demand, on-line
information and services previously not available without the expense
and complexity of use of the personal computer. The installed base of
any analog set tops deployed during the early phases of an
interactive service can be migrated to a fully integrated digital
service when interactive digital TV set top receivers become
available in Australia.
As part of its preparation for the launch of the pilot programme,
during the quarter ICE continued with the process of identification
and selection of appropriate carrier network, infrastructure and
content partners that will ultimately facilitate the deployment of
commercial services in Australia.
1.2 NETLINE TECHNOLOGIES (BKS 45% fully diluted)
During the quarter the company started to generate revenue from its
email messaging services and achieved a number of market and product
development milestones.
In June Netline was awarded the "Most Outstanding Wireless Mobile
Product" trophy at the International Internet World 2000 Exhibition
held in Sydney. Netline beat entries from numerous companies
including Nokia, and Optus Cable & Wireless. The award recognizes the
company`s work in developing mobile email messaging technology.
The company appointed a number of re-sellers during the quarter
including Ryda Communications based in Sydney, and initial demand for
Netline products and services from prospective re-sellers and
subscribers was encouraging. The company`s annual target of 4000
subscribers by 30 June, 2000 was achieved, demonstrating the validity
of Netline`s revised marketing approach and creating a base from
which to grow the distribution of its services.
On 17 July Netline announced an alliance with Outblaze, a substantial
Hong Kong based service provider backed by Pacific Century
CyberWorks. Outblaze is to host and provide technology for a new
portal service presently being developed by Netline based on its
E-Fone email-by-phone service.
The Board of Netline is presently appraising the possibility of
completing an IPO of the company on ASX as well as other avenues to
secure funding to allow for the continued product development and
implementation of its business plan. The company`s focus in the past
quarter has been to reduce exposure to direct retail marketing costs
and to implement a model under which distributors and re-sellers win
market its premium E-Fone product. This will allow for greater focus
of management resources on refinements to a proposed new wireless
service and development of international opportunities.
Details of the new wireless email service and prospective partners to
deploy the service are expected to be made available publicly during
the September quarter at which time the new service is expected to be
launched.

Fourth Quarter Activities Report
NAGAMBIE QUARRY, VICTORIA
Rock sales during the quarter amounted to 76,582 tonnes, up from
67,939 tonnes in the previous quarter. The majority of these sales
were for the Goulburn Valley Highway upgrade from Seymour to
Nagambie.
During the quarter the Federal Government announced additional
funding for further upgrades of the Goulburn Valley Highway. The
funding is to be provided for a number of stages of the construction
as follows:-
* A further A$9.8M to allow for the completion of the existing
section that is being upgraded between Nagambie and Seymour. To-date
the Company has sold approximately 188,000 tonnes of rock from the
Nagambie mine for this section of the road. Comparatively small
quantities of rock fill were needed for this section of the road due
to the substantial quantities of cut-to-fill as the road traversed
through hilly country.
* A total of A$94M of Federal funding will be provided to complete
the Murchison East deviation. The initial contribution of $10 million
will be provided for 2000-01. This section of the highway will see
the construction of 19 kilometres of dual carriageway that will run
from Wahring, just to the north of Nagambie, to the south of Kialla
West. This 19-kilometre stretch is almost entirely across alluvial
floodplain country that will require substantial volumes of rock as
select fill.
* The Federal Government will fund a study for the 16-kilometre
bypass of the town of Nagambie.
The tender for the A$94M Murchison East deviation stage of the
Goulburn Valley Highway duplication is expected to be released in
September 2000. In discussions with the Company, VicRoads has
indicated that this section of the highway will require 0.15M bank
cubic metres of Class 4 material and 1.5M bank cubic metres of select
fill and, importantly, that the material from the mine is suitable
for both these classes of rock. This volume equates to approximately
4,000,000 tonnes of rock.
VicRoads has identified some other local rock sources as being
suitable for Class 4 and select fill material. The material from the
mine is seen to be highly competitive over these sources for the
following reasons: -
* The mine is very close to the new highway construction site. The
Nagambie mine would appear to have a minimum of a 15 kilometre
advantage in the trucking component of the rock price over other
potential sources.
* The rock from the mine has already been drilled, blasted, mined and
crushed and sits in a stockpile. Rock sourced from quarries would
have to undergo this treatment.
* The highway construction contractor can place and form the rock
with ease and speed. The contractor for the first stage of the
highway duplication was able to place and form the mine rock with
approximately half the effort normally required for conventionally
quarried rock.
The announcement of the A$94M Murchison East deviation substantially
increases the value of the Company`s strategic stockpile of 12
million tonnes of rock at the Nagambie mine. The directors have
decided to sell the mine site for its quarry potential. This is due
to the potential magnitude and timing of the next contract and the
potential size of the contract for the eventual by-pass of the town
of Nagambie and the fact that quarrying is not the core business of
the Company.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
VANTECK VRB TECHNOLOGY CORP
Vanteck ("VRB") Technology Corp relisted on the CDNX on the 28th of
July, 2000. The $250,000 annual licence fee was paid to Pinnacle VRB
Limited 27th of May, 2000.
During the Quarter Vanteck entered into a Heads of Agreement with
Highveld Steel and Vanadium Corporation Limited of South Africa
("Highveld"). Highveld is a substantial steel and ferro-alloy
producer and is the world`s largest producer of vanadium. Under the
Heads of Agreement, Highveld, and Vanteck will initially form a 50:50
strategic alliance within Africa for the purpose of, among other
things to;
(i) Review the feasibility of establishing a vanadium electrolyte
manufacturing plant in South Africa primarily for the supply of
vanadium electrolyte for VRBs installed within Africa;
(ii) Conducting further research and development work on increasing
electrolyte concentrations (higher molarity); and
(iii) Developing the commercialisation of the VRB within Africa.
A strategic alliance of this calibre can only assist in progressing
the future of the VRB Technology and will assist greatly in Vanteck`s
growth throughout Africa.
The Company is currently in the final stages of negotiation to enter
into a new strategic alliance with a major African power utility with
the emphasis on establishing a commercial 520 kilowatt hour UPS
Vanadium Redox Battery in South Africa. These negotiations are
expected to be finalised during the month of August.
SLE (AUSTRALIA) PTY LTD
During the quarter, the Company agreed to increase its equity in SLE
(Australia) Pty Ltd ("SLE") by 10% to 50% by issuing 100,000 fully
paid shares. SLE owns the Luxalum, ("Glow-in-the-dark") pigment,
which has unique performance characteristics over and above other
competitors in this market. The technology utilised in the
manufacturing of the Luxalum pigment, is also believed to have
substantial uses in improving performance of other rare earth
pigments (ie EL Phosphors, which is primarily used in the colour
illumination of computer and television screens).
The Directors have decided to increase the equity position to the
maximum 50% some 3 months early, as allowed under the original
contract, to take advantage of the level of international interest
currently being shown for this product and process.
On 21st June, 2000, SLE advised that the Company had become
commercially viable and that the Company`s first order for 1 tonne
valued at $308,000 has been received from a major international
chemical company. A deposit of $154,000 has been received for this
first order.
SLE Directors report that this order is a trial order, which is
expected to lead to a negotiation to supply a minimum of 25 tonnes
per annum for 10 years. An International Patent Pending Application
had been lodged by SLE (Australia) Pty Ltd protecting its invention.
Directors are encouraged by the progress made by SLE (Australia) Pty
Ltd in such a short time.
PUBLICDEBATE.COM.AU
On 3rd July, 2000 the Company announced that Federation Resourccs NL
had sold 50% of it`s shares in Opinionex Pty Ltd to New Holland
Mining NL for the consideration of $80,000 and 12 million ordinary
fully paid shares in New Holland Mining NL.
Opinionex Pty Ltd, owned 50% of the shares in Publicdebate.com.au Pty
Ltd, which hosts the Australian current affairs website
www.publicdebate.com.au, now ranked around 20th position in the News
and Media category in Australia.
VISHOEK DIAMOND PROJECT, SOUTH AFRICA
Operations at Vishoek have been placed on care and maintenance
pending a review of the capital and operating requirements, submitted
by the South African management team, to increase the production at
Vishoek. Exploration and production for the quarter has confirmed an
average grade of 0.6 carats per 100 tonnes (simular to other
operations on the Orange River), with an average stone size of 2.5
carats per stone. It is anticipated that the Vishoek mine will be re-
opened during the next quarter, subject to approval by all parties of
the management plan.
MT CHALMERS COPPER and GOLD PROJECT
Federation holds a 100% equity in the Queensland copper and gold
property known as the Mt Chalmers project. With the recent
improvement in copper prices the Directors continuously review the
economics of this project an are involved in continuing discussions
with a view to expanding and consolidating the area.
GOLD EXPLORATION PROPERTIES IN VICTORIA
Federation still holds its gold exploration properties at Costerfield
and retains its interest in the Rushworth Joint Venture. The
Directors continue to evaluate these properties in line with the
movements in the gold price.
CORPORATE

Fourth Quarter Activities & Cashflow Reports
QUARTERLY REPORT TO 30 JUNE 2000
ADELONG GOLD PROJECT
Efforts concentrated during the quarter on achieving a satisfactory
sale of the Adelong gold project to enable the Company to focus on
its investment activity. This culminated in an agreement being
reached with Onslow Minerals and Exploration NL on 5 July 2000 for a
consideration of $750,000. The sale is subject to a number of
conditions however, completion is anticipated by early September.
INVESTMENTS
On 11 April Adelong invested $250,000 into Smart News Group Limited,
an email based investor relations start-up company. Perth based Smart
News raised $1.5m seed capital ahead of a proposed public listing
later in 2000. Smart New`s provides corporate clients with a
personalised investor relations program based on web delivery via
email.
On 7 June Adelong committed to invest US$500,000 into a global
e-commerce fund, the second E-Trade E-commerce Fund. This fund will
adopt the same strategy as the first E-Trade E-commerce Fund which
is to invest into early to mid-stage companies, offering internet
related products and services or related infrastructure.
The fund will be managed by E-Trade Ventures, a Delaware limited
liability company controlled by Christos M Costakos and Thomas A
Bevilaqua. The Fund is offering approximately US$200m of limited
partnership interests to qualified investors. E-Trade`s first
E-commerce Fund has posted an internal rate of return in excess of
1900%.
Adelong continued to maintain and monitor its investments in e-Smart
Pty Ltd and FreeISP.com Limited and reviewed a number of other
potential investment opportunities.
CORPORATE
Adelong continued to finalise the legal and regulatory process to
achieve re-listing of its securities.
On 1 June, the Company announced a 1:6 non-renounceable entitlement
issue at an issue price of 20 cents per share together with 1 free
attaching option (20c/30 January 2003). The issue is underwritten by
CIBC World Markets. The fundraising will raise approximately A$3.8
million in additional working capital and allow Adelong to re-list as
an Investment Entity, one of the requirements for which is having net
tangible assets of at least A$15 million.
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, on 5 July Adelong lodged a
Prospectus with ASIC in relation to the entitlement issue and to
facilitate the re-listing process.
During the quarter, Mr Alvin Tan was appointed to the Board as an
Executive Director following the resignation of Mr Gary Crole. Mr Tan
has experience in investing, financial management and information
technology.
Mr Clive McKee, formerly a non-executive Director, was appointed as
Managing Director in June.

Fourth Quarter Activities & Cashflow Reports
WA 254-P, PARTS 1, 3 & 4, INCLUDING THE PROPOSED ARGOS-1 WELL
(CARNARVON 7.82%)
These areas are to the north and northwest of Dampier, with the Argos
prospect located offshore approximately 100km north of Dampier,
Western Australia.
The Argos Prospect was the subject of a re-interpretation based on
3D Pre Stack Depth Migration data sets recently compiled with the
results confirming Argos as a drillable prospect.
The development options for Argos are critically linked to the
development by the WA 1-P Joint Venture of the Legendre Oil Field to
the north of the prospect, in particular the production rates into
the Legendre facility. As a result, the likely timing for the
drilling of this prospect will be tied to when the Legendre facility
comes on line.
Argos is in a favourably located position on the downthrown side of
the Rosemary Fault System. The well is updip from the source kitchen
of the Lewis Trough and on trend with the Legendre Oil Field, the
southern extent of which is interpreted to lie approximately 2km
north of the prospect. The primary objective for Argos-1 is the B.
Reticulatum Sandstone, which is the sandstone that forms the
reservoir for the Legendre Oil Field.
WA 254-P. PART 2, INCLUDING THE SAGE-1 WELL
(CARNARVON 10.31%)
This area is located offshore approximately 90 km north northwest of
Dampier, Western Australia.
The Operator currently interprets the Sage discovery as sub-economic,
with estimated mean reserves of approximately 4 MMbbls of oil. The
likelihood of any exploitation of the discovery will be dependent on
a production facility being developed close by and a continuing high
oil price.
EP 110
(CARNARVON 46.545%)
This permit is located onshore/offshore at Onslow, Western Australia
and is adjacent to the Tubridgi Gas Field.
A prospect and lead review was recently carried out and a lead has
been identified to the east of Tubridgi for consideration.
On 24 January 2000 the Minister for Mines granted the renewal of the
permit for a term of five years, with effect from 24 January 2000.
The minimum work requirements of the renewal require one well to be
drilled in the third permit year and one offshore well to be drilled
in the fifth permit year.
A farmout of the Company`s interest in EP110 is presently being
negotiated.
EP 342
(CARNARVON 9.70873%)
The prospective eastern part of the permit is located offshore
approximately 30km south west of Onslow.
On 27 March 2000 the Minister for Mines granted the renewal of the
permit for a term of five years, with effect from 27 March 2000. The
minimum work requirements of the renewal require one well to be
drilled in the fourth permit year.
EP 325
(CARNARVON 1.8%)
The White Opal prospect is located immediately offshore from the
northern tip of North West Cape.
The operators, Victoria Petroleum NL, drilled the White Opal-1 well
to a total depth of 2,597m in March 2000. Wireline logs have
indicated minor residual hydrocarbons only, and the well was plugged
and abandoned.

Mining at Fosterville recommenced in April following a one-month
break. The break was needed to allow for the major move of the
stacker onto the second lift on the Fosterville leach heap pad. This
move will allow ore to be stacked and leached on top of existing
leached ore that now covers an extensive area. This avoids
significant additional capital costs that would be necessary if extra
pad space for more first lift stacking was developed. If the entire
second lift is filled then these savings are in the order of $2.0M.
The decrease in gold recovered during the quarter is in part due to
the slower recovery anticipated from stacking ore on the second lift
of the pad.
Mining was completed in the northern extension to the Central
Ellesmere pit and then commenced in the southern extension of the
Fosterville pit. The first significant winter rainfall in Victoria
for four years hampered mining operations through June and into July.
Despite some additional stripping in the Fosterville pit, the
stripping ratio for the quarter was lower than average at 2.7.
Overall geological reconciliations from the Central Ellesmere pit
were negative, with 10% less contained gold mined than was in the
mine model. This was due to extensive historic workings in the upper
benches. Reconciliations for the majority of the pit were positive
and the grades of ore in the base of this pit were excellent in the
area immediately above the sulphide zone. Geological reconciliations
from the Fosterville pit in the upper levels, similarly show an 11%
shortfall in contained gold mined to-date compared to the mine model.
The Rehe`s deposit was prepared for mining with trees cleared,
topsoil stripped and the haul road nearly completed. This pit will be
mined following the completion of the southern end of the Fosterville
pit.
Leaching from Central Ellesmere ore is approximately 25% slower than
is normally encountered at Fosterville. This is due to the ore having
a higher than normal clay content. This was apparent during mining
with extensive volumes of timber encountered that would have been
needed to support the old underground workings.
Metallurgical testwork carried out in the previous quarter
demonstrated that the low grade stockpile at Robbin`s Hill is
economic to treat as run-of-mine ore. A parcel of 21,000 tonnes at
0.42 Au g/t was stacked and irrigated successfully during the
quarter. This balance of this ore, amounting to 518,000 tonnes at
0.43 Au g/t, will be stacked on the Robbin`s Hill leach pad before
the end of the calender year.
MINESITE EXPLORATION
No exploration drilling was carried out on the mine during the
quarter.
DEVELOPMENT
Sulphide Plant Design
Negotiations continued for the purchase of a complete 1994-dated CIP
plant to provide the primary crushing, SAG milling and carbon
stripping sections necessary for the sulpbide treatment plant. If
these negotiations are successful then, together with other
refinements, the total capital expenditure for the Fosterville
Sulphides Project will have been reduced from the feasibility study
estimate of A$39.4M to A$27.3M.
Oxide Permitting
A further seven EES Consultative Committee meetings were held in the
June quarter with the hydrological, agronomy and hazard risk
assessment consultants` reports being tabled. The remaining
consultants` reports required to complete the EES are on
socio-economic issues and health assessment risks.
The hydrological report, which investigated both groundwater and
surface water, successfully demonstrated that with careful management
practices, the two mining proposals would have no adverse impact on
the environment. This was the most important of the technical reports
for the EES as water issues were seen to be the most important
technical issue by the local community. The completed Environment
Effects Statement document is still expected to be released in the
fourth quarter of the calender year for public review and comment, in
preparation for the panel hearing, which will produce a
recommendation regarding the proposals.
REGIONAL EXPLORATION
No regional exploration work was carried out during the quarter.

[IMPERIAL MINING NL 25%, PEREGRINE MINERAL SANDS NL 50% (WHOLLY
OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF BEMAX RESOURCES NL, OPERATOR), PROBO MINING PTY
LIMITED 25%]
As announced to the ASX on 10 July 2000, Imperial and BeMaX have
entered into an agreement under which Imperial will transfer its 100%
ownership interest in Imperial Mining (Aust) NL ("Imp (Aust)") to
BeMaX, giving the BeMaX Group an additional 25% beneficial interest
in the Ginkgo Deposit and associated BIP Joint Venture properties.
In exchange, Imperial will receive 18.95 million fully paid BeMaX
shares and 1.75 million twenty-five cent options expiring in December
2001.
After allowing for the conversion of BeMaX`s 30 June 2000 series of
options and in the event that BeMaX does not place any further shares
up to the anticipated completion date as provided by the Share Sale
Agreement, the proposed issue and allotment of 18.95 million ordinary
shares to the Company would result in the Company acquiring 26.6% of
the voting shares in BeMaX.
Two representatives of Imperial will be invited to join the Board of
BeMax after completion of the transaction.
The sale is subject to approval of shareholders of both Imperial and
BeMaX. A Meeting of shareholders of Imperial to consider the
transaction is planned for early September 2000.

BIP MINERAL SANDS JOINT VENTURE
RESOURCE ESTIMATION CONFIRMS THE SIZE AND POTENTIAL OF THE GINKGO
DEPOSIT
An independent resource estimation of the Ginkgo Deposit was
undertaken by Snowden Mining Industry Consultants Pty Ltd (Snowden),
following receipt of more than 11,000 assays from AMDEL Laboratories.
Details were announced to the ASX on 2 May, 2000.
The deposit is approximately 12 km long and has been drilled on 29
traverses mostly 400m apart with drill hole spacing ranging from 25
to 100m on each line (Figure 3).
Snowden reported that:
"The resource estimate for the Ginkgo Deposit is 252 Mt at 2.8% total
heavy mineral (HM) above a 1% HM cut-off.
The resource was estimated via Ordinary Kriging within a nominal 1%
HM envelope. A density of 1.7 t/m(3) has been assumed, as per previous
resource estimates. No slimes or oversize cut-offs have been applied,
as these are at very low levels within the 1% envelope. No top cuts
were applied during Ordinary Kriging, based on statistical assessment
of the HM population within the defined envelope."
"In Snowden`s opinion, the resource should be classified as indicated
based on an examination of the mineralisation continuity. Once
density information is available it is likely that most of the
resource can be upgraded to a Measured classification. A Measured
classification would be subject to confirmation of the grain size and
proportion of the valuable heavy minerals within the heavy mineral
assemblage, as indicated by the work reviewed to date. It also
assumes all other criteria as described in the JORC guidelines are
met, such as confidence in the geological interpretation, surveying,
sampling and assaying."
Within the 1% HM envelope, the resource contains more than 7 million
tonnes of heavy minerals. The robust nature of the resource is
confirmed by a high grade core of 123 million tonnes @ 4.2% HM at a
cut-off grade of 2% HM. (See Table 1)
Imperial believes that these results are exciting and confirms the
belief that Ginkgo is one of the most significant heavy mineral sand
discoveries to date in the Murray Basin.

PILOT PLANT TESTWORK ON GINKGO MINERALISATION CONFIRM MARKETABLE
HEAVY MINERAL PRODUCTS
MD Mineral Technology Pty Ltd (MD) was retained to test a composite
sample from the Ginkgo Deposit. The results of this work indicate
that the Ginkgo mineral suite can potentially be processed into
commercial ilmenite, leucoxene, rutile and zircon products. Details
of this work were announced to the ASX on 3 April, 2000.
The first pass testing by MD indicates that ilmenite, rutile,
leucoxene and zircon products suitable for the market may be
produced. Further testing of these products is in progress with the
aim of improving the commercial specifications by changes in dry
plant processing, blending and chrome reduction of ilmenite.
The Board of Imperial is encouraged by these preliminary results as
they demonstrate a high potential to meet market specifications of
these products.
The results of the work to date indicate that there are, so far, no
technological issues that would inhibit the production of valuable
and marketable products from the Ginkgo deposit.

Fourth Quarter Activities & Cashflow Reports
1.0 TECHNOLOGY INVESTMENTS
1.1 ICE INTERACTIVE LIMITED (BKS 40% fully diluted)
ICE interactive was formed in February 2000 to invest in the
development and customization of the Liberate Technologies
interactive television platform for the Australian market. Foundation
shareholders include Liberate Technologies (NASDAQ.LBRT,
www.liberate.com), and Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ: ORCL,
www.oracle.com). During the quarter ICE continued to develop the
business opportunities identified in the Prospectus issued by the
Company on 20 March 2000.
Good progress has been made in readiness for a pilot programme to be
launched in the September quarter. The pilot will initially be
conducted in the existing analog television environment in Australia
with interactive and Internet access via 56K modem dial-up (through
which the vast majority of Australian Internet connected households
get on-line).
The Company welcomes the decision by the Federal Communications
Minister, Senator Alston that Internet video streaming will not be
regarded as a broadcast service for the purposes of the Broadcasting
Services Act (video streaming results in TV quality moving pictures
being sent over the Internet to a remote computer or set top box).
This clarification of policy by the Government opens the way for ICE
Interactive to include high speed broadband services, in particular
video on demand (VOD) as part of its service platform.
During the quarter, AOL in the US launched an interactive TV service
made available to both subscribers and non-subscribers of its ISP
service, based on the Liberate platform for an analog television
environment. Similar to the AOL service, the interactive and enhanced
television applications presently under development by ICE are not
dependant on the introduction of digital television broadcast
services set to commence in Australia on 1 January 2001.
At present, there is an installed base of approximately 10 million
analog TV receivers in Australia, with annual sales of 1 million
sets. The Company believes that the planned pilot service deployed to
work initially in the analog broadcast environment will demonstrate
considerable value to individual consumers and communities of
interest and serve to develop the market. Overseas experience,
particularly in the US where after more than a year of digital
transmission the penetration of digital television receivers has been
very low, suggests that demand will be driven primarily by the
quality of enhanced content, the bundle of interactive services, open
Internet access and the ease of use.
A key objective of the initial analog/56K dial up service to be
tested by ICE Interactive in its forthcoming pilot is to demonstrate
the ability to deliver access to a broad market on-demand, on-line
information and services previously not available without the expense
and complexity of use of the personal computer. The installed base of
any analog set tops deployed during the early phases of an
interactive service can be migrated to a fully integrated digital
service when interactive digital TV set top receivers become
available in Australia.
As part of its preparation for the launch of the pilot programme,
during the quarter ICE continued with the process of identification
and selection of appropriate carrier network, infrastructure and
content partners that will ultimately facilitate the deployment of
commercial services in Australia.
1.2 NETLINE TECHNOLOGIES (BKS 45% fully diluted)
During the quarter the company started to generate revenue from its
email messaging services and achieved a number of market and product
development milestones.
In June Netline was awarded the "Most Outstanding Wireless Mobile
Product" trophy at the International Internet World 2000 Exhibition
held in Sydney. Netline beat entries from numerous companies
including Nokia, and Optus Cable & Wireless. The award recognizes the
company`s work in developing mobile email messaging technology.
The company appointed a number of re-sellers during the quarter
including Ryda Communications based in Sydney, and initial demand for
Netline products and services from prospective re-sellers and
subscribers was encouraging. The company`s annual target of 4000
subscribers by 30 June, 2000 was achieved, demonstrating the validity
of Netline`s revised marketing approach and creating a base from
which to grow the distribution of its services.
On 17 July Netline announced an alliance with Outblaze, a substantial
Hong Kong based service provider backed by Pacific Century
CyberWorks. Outblaze is to host and provide technology for a new
portal service presently being developed by Netline based on its
E-Fone email-by-phone service.
The Board of Netline is presently appraising the possibility of
completing an IPO of the company on ASX as well as other avenues to
secure funding to allow for the continued product development and
implementation of its business plan. The company`s focus in the past
quarter has been to reduce exposure to direct retail marketing costs
and to implement a model under which distributors and re-sellers win
market its premium E-Fone product. This will allow for greater focus
of management resources on refinements to a proposed new wireless
service and development of international opportunities.
Details of the new wireless email service and prospective partners to
deploy the service are expected to be made available publicly during
the September quarter at which time the new service is expected to be
launched.

Fourth Quarter Activities Report
NAGAMBIE QUARRY, VICTORIA
Rock sales during the quarter amounted to 76,582 tonnes, up from
67,939 tonnes in the previous quarter. The majority of these sales
were for the Goulburn Valley Highway upgrade from Seymour to
Nagambie.
During the quarter the Federal Government announced additional
funding for further upgrades of the Goulburn Valley Highway. The
funding is to be provided for a number of stages of the construction
as follows:-
* A further A$9.8M to allow for the completion of the existing
section that is being upgraded between Nagambie and Seymour. To-date
the Company has sold approximately 188,000 tonnes of rock from the
Nagambie mine for this section of the road. Comparatively small
quantities of rock fill were needed for this section of the road due
to the substantial quantities of cut-to-fill as the road traversed
through hilly country.
* A total of A$94M of Federal funding will be provided to complete
the Murchison East deviation. The initial contribution of $10 million
will be provided for 2000-01. This section of the highway will see
the construction of 19 kilometres of dual carriageway that will run
from Wahring, just to the north of Nagambie, to the south of Kialla
West. This 19-kilometre stretch is almost entirely across alluvial
floodplain country that will require substantial volumes of rock as
select fill.
* The Federal Government will fund a study for the 16-kilometre
bypass of the town of Nagambie.
The tender for the A$94M Murchison East deviation stage of the
Goulburn Valley Highway duplication is expected to be released in
September 2000. In discussions with the Company, VicRoads has
indicated that this section of the highway will require 0.15M bank
cubic metres of Class 4 material and 1.5M bank cubic metres of select
fill and, importantly, that the material from the mine is suitable
for both these classes of rock. This volume equates to approximately
4,000,000 tonnes of rock.
VicRoads has identified some other local rock sources as being
suitable for Class 4 and select fill material. The material from the
mine is seen to be highly competitive over these sources for the
following reasons: -
* The mine is very close to the new highway construction site. The
Nagambie mine would appear to have a minimum of a 15 kilometre
advantage in the trucking component of the rock price over other
potential sources.
* The rock from the mine has already been drilled, blasted, mined and
crushed and sits in a stockpile. Rock sourced from quarries would
have to undergo this treatment.
* The highway construction contractor can place and form the rock
with ease and speed. The contractor for the first stage of the
highway duplication was able to place and form the mine rock with
approximately half the effort normally required for conventionally
quarried rock.
The announcement of the A$94M Murchison East deviation substantially
increases the value of the Company`s strategic stockpile of 12
million tonnes of rock at the Nagambie mine. The directors have
decided to sell the mine site for its quarry potential. This is due
to the potential magnitude and timing of the next contract and the
potential size of the contract for the eventual by-pass of the town
of Nagambie and the fact that quarrying is not the core business of
the Company.

Ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, daß diese Aktie jemand für 0,20 verkauft. Auf jedenfall nicht die, die wesentlich mehr als 0,5 gezahlt haben.
Ich verstehe eh nicht was diese Prognosen dauernd sollen, der 1. Kurs kommet aus Übersee und wir werden wohl ganz einfach abwarten müssen.
Vielleicht kommt ja doch noch eine Überraschung und es kommen ein paar Beteiligungen.
Ganz ruhig bleiben
