Vancouver, BC, January 14th, 2008 - Oriental Minerals Inc. (OTL: TSX-V) is pleased to announce the grant of two uranium mining licences known as Daejon 29 and 39 in the Ogcheon geological belt of South Korea.

Each mining title is approximately 1.88 x 1.50 km (area - 2.82 km2).

The target carbonaceous metasedimentary horizons are regarded as analogues of the Chattanooga (USA) and Alum (Sweden) shales but typically with relatively higher anomalous uranium (often in excess of 0.02%U) and vanadium (often in excess of 0.3%V). The carbonaceous and often graphitic metasediments form part of the late Precambrian to early Palaeozoic Guryongsan Formation and extend for approximately 90km within the NE-SW trending Ogcheon structural lower greenschist facies zone.

It is proposed to carry out a 6,000 metre diamond drilling programme on the granted areas. The exploration team is preparing detailed plans for the upcoming season and further information will be announced to the market when the plan is finalised.

A map of the area can be found on the Oriental web site at http://www.orientalminerals.com/s/Ogchon.asp?ReportID=180026.

Commenting on the grant Mr. Willie McLucas, President and CEO said "it is very exciting to be the first foreign company operating in South Korea to be granted these leases after such an extensive review by our exploration team. During the process a total on 196 licences were sampled before we identified two highly prospective areas with grades high enough to allow the government to grant the licences."

On behalf of the Board of Directors,
Willie McLucas

diese nachricht ist grundsätzlich sehr positiv zu werten selbst wenn genauere angaben fehlen.

schade, dass der technische report zu ogchon noch nicht veröffentlicht wurde - dieser war ja nach angaben von otl die voraussetzung zu den lizenzverhandlungen.

wenn es so wie verlautbart auch eine mining lizenz gibt, dann würden mich insbesondere die rahmenbedingungen interessieren, denn die südkoreanische regierung wird imo diesen strategischen rohstoff keinesfalls zum export freigeben.

aber die entwicklung durch otl und die geplante übernahme des projektes durch ein staatsnahes unternehmen könnte schon gelingen und lukrativ sein.

andererseits sind diese 2 lizenzgebiete nicht sonderlich gross und könnten den vorläufigen status einer pilot-projektentwicklung haben.

erwähnenswert ist auch, dass diese entscheidung relativ kurz nach der regierungsumbildung in südkorea erfolgte und dadurch auch das politische risiko geringer ist als wenn so eine entscheidung beispielsweise vor den wahlen von der alten regierung getroffen worden wäre.

also, eine ganz tolle und eigentlich unerwartete grundsatz entscheidung ist mal gefallen, auf die weiteren details zu der vereinbarung bin ich zumindest schon sehr gespannt.

Da hast Du recht! Vorallem das hier: "During the process a total on 196 licences were sampled before we identified two highly prospective areas with grades high enough to allow the government to grant the licences."
Weiß zwar nicht, welche Bestimmungen damit gemeint sind, aber wenn sie Lizenzen nur vergeben, wenn eine hinreichend hohe Mineralisierung vorhanden ist, spricht dies doch ersteinmal für OTL. Bin mal gespannt, was da noch nachkommt...

ABER: Um solche Jubelorgien a là streetdoc, etc. etwas zu dämpfen: Wirklich wichtig für das Vorankommen von OTL ist und bleibt Sangdong. Wenn der Bericht gut ist, wird Uran ersteinmal niemanden so richtig interessieren; wenn nicht, wird`s auch nicht helfen. Also auf dem Teppich bleiben! Tatsächlich finde ich das positivste an der Nachricht, daß offensichtlich einiges im Hintergrund läuft (man weiß das bei Explorern letztlich ja nie so genau). Von daher stimmt dies doch einstweilen auch für den verschobenen Sangdong-Bericht optimistisch.

Oriental Minerals Inc.: Initial Resource Estimation for Sangdong Reports 50 Million Tonnes of O.28% WO3 & 0.04% MoS2 Inferred and 5.7 Million Tonnes of 0.31% WO3 & 0.04% MoS2 Indicated
1/30/2008
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Jan 30, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX News Network) --

Oriental Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE: OTL) is pleased to announce an inferred resource of 50.7 million tonnes of 0.28% WO3, and 0.04% MoS2, and an indicated resource of 5.7 million tonnes of 0.31% WO3 and 0.04% MoS2. for the Sangdong Tungsten-Molybdenum deposit in South Korea.

The report of initial resource estimations are done by Wardrop Engineering Inc. in compliance with NI 43-101, and are based on the first 27 of 45 (as at Jan 22nd) drill holes completed out of a planned 87 hole drill program. Only the 27 holes completed prior to 31st October are included in this initial estimation.

This initial resource is at the south-eastern end of the deposit and includes mineralisation from surface. Updates to the resource estimation are being planned to incorporate subsequently received drill assays.

Commenting on the report President and CEO, Mr. Willie McLucas, said: "This first report illustrates the longer term potential of Sangdong mine as one of the largest known Tungsten deposits in the world. With approximately one third of the total drill results known to date, the scale of the deposit is becoming much clearer. Drilling continues apace at Sangdong. The Corporation continues to pursue its other mineral interests in Molybdenum, Base Metals, Gold and now Uranium as well."

The tables below have been estimated by Wardrop Engineering Inc. using a cut off grade of 0.15% WO3. Results from subsequent holes are pending and will be released and incorporated into a resource update when ready. Several of the results are from areas not included in the resource estimation to date.

SANGDONG RESOURCE ESTIMATE METHODOLOGIES

The Sangdong Tungsten mineralization is hosted primarily in tabular calc-silicate horizons in Cambrian-age Myobong Slate (Skarn) associated with bedding concordant and stockworked quartz - carbonate - scheelite veins. Alteration and mineralization is concentrically zoned, diminishing outwards, above a granitic intrusive which induced a higher-grade tungsten molybdenum core.

The deposit was modelled using lithological boundaries, WO3, MoS2 and Bi assay data from both Oriental and 788 historical underground drill holes with Gemcom mining software. Assays were partially capped and samples were composited over 1 metre (m) intervals. A Specific Gravity value of 2.89 g/cm3 was used for the Skarn. WO3, MoS2 and Bi grades were interpolated into blocks 20m (strike) x 20m (dip direction) x 5m (vertical) using ordinary Kriging.

Oriental drill holes are located on a 100m x 100m north-south orientated grid. Holes are drilled oblique to this grid at azimuths of 135 degrees and 315 degrees. SD-01 to SD-24 were drilled diamond core, size HQ & NQ. SD-25 to 27 were drilled by RC (Reverse Circulation).

The values are based on a three year moving average price of US$231 per MTU for the Ammonium Para Tungstate (APT) and US$28.84 per pound for Molybdenum TriOxide.

Recoveries of 90% for Scheelite and 95% for Molybdenum have been assumed and are based on reports received from SGS Advanced Mineralogy Facility in Lakefield, Ontario.

Complete results and a drill plan and cross section are available on the website at:

SCOPING AND PRE-FEASIBILITY STUDY

Based on this first resource estimation, the Corporation has appointed Wardrop Engineering Inc. to carry out a scoping and pre-feasibility study. The work will also include a review of the likely operating costs and will result in a review of the cut off grade to be used in estimating the size of the deposit.

CURRENT DRILLING

During the Christmas period a total of 1,122m were drilled and 828 pulps delivered to the ALS Laboratory in Brisbane for assay. As at January 25th, 2008 Oriental has completed 14,731m of drilling at Sangdong.

Five drill rigs are currently operational at the site. Results will be announced to the market as they are received.

COMMUNITY SUPPORT

Mr. Sun Kyu Park, the Mayor of Yeongwol County, announced in his recent address to the County Council that the re-development of the Sangdong mine would represent one of the most important regeneration projects in the region.

He emphasised that the Sangdong tungsten-molybdenum project is one of the economic priorities for the County administration for 2008 during his first official meeting with Sangdong residents on January 17, 2008.

BASE METALS AT SANGDONG

At this stage no estimations have been prepared using more recent drill information, which show notable base metal grades in the limestone sequence overlying the western part of the Tungsten-Molybdenum deposit. Further results will be announced as they become available.

DEEP MOLYBDENUM

In addition to the work being carried out on Tungsten, Oriental has appointed Kenex Ltd. of New Zealand to prepare an initial molybdenum resource estimate from historic mining records and from recent drilling, which indicate the possibility of a Molybdenum deposit underlying the Tungsten Resource. To date four holes have been completed. Further drilling is currently underway to fully evaluate the deposit.

QUALIFIED PERSON

The Qualified Person who prepared the resource estimate, and is responsible for the resource estimate disclosure in this release, is Mr. Gregory Z. Mosher, a Senior Geologist with Wardrop Engineering Inc. Mr. Mosher visited the property on 2nd and 3rd November 2007 and has over 35 years of relevant experience.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.212.784 von saltamonte am 30.01.08 13:26:56

Wenn ich richtig verstanden habe, ist 1 kg Wolfram etwa 26 Dollar wert, wobei 1 mtu = 10 kg.

Die Frage ist, wieviel Wolfram man aus dem WO3 bekommt.

[saltamonte]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.216.051 von Urlaub2 am 30.01.08 17:04:48

aktuell wird die metric ton unit mit 0,1% wo3 - (also 1kg) für ca. 170-180usd/mtu gehandelt.

eine erste verfeinerungsstufe wäre das upgrade auf "Ammoniumparatungstate" oder abgekürzt APT, welches aktuell mit ca. 230-240usd/mtu gehandelt wird.

nach meinem kenntnisstand ist das APT das angestrebte produkt welches auf sangdong aufbereitet und verkauft werden soll.

weitere aufbereitungsschritte um an das konzentrierte W - also "ohne 03" ;-) oder produktvarianten könnten dann beim abnehmer wie beispielsweise TAEGUTEC oder POSCO durchgeführt werden.

[Urlaub2]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.216.051 von Urlaub2 am 30.01.08 17:04:48

Hm, ich sehe schon selber:

1 mtu WO3 ist etwa 231 Dollar wert, also 1 Kg 23 Dollar.

Der bisherige Wert wäre in etwa:

57 Mio. Tonnen x 0,3 % x 23 Dollar pro kg = 39,3 Mrd. Dollar !!

Nur von dem bisher bewerteten Anteil und nur Wolfram !!



Ist also gar nicht so falsch, daß "Meister" Reynolds von 100 Mrd. Dollar gesprochen hat !





Ich erlaube mir in diesem Zusammenhang, Basher als dümmlich zu bezeichen.

[saltamonte]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.216.433 von Urlaub2 am 30.01.08 17:29:00

ja, das wäre schön, aber ich komme auf


57mio x3kg x23usd = 3933mio oder 3,933mrd usd

[Urlaub2]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.216.433 von Urlaub2 am 30.01.08 17:29:00

Unsere Postings hatten sich überschnitten.

Die Frage ist, ob beim Upgrade von WO3 auf APT mengenmäßig etwas verloren geht.
Das müßte man da abziehen.

Für mich ist auf jeden Fall keine Frage, daß OTL ein Volltreffer wird. Man muß nur die nötige Geduld aufbringen.

[KleinesGeld]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.216.051 von Urlaub2 am 30.01.08 17:04:48

Ich vermute, sie beziehen sich auf Tungstite (Wo3 * H2O); dann enthält Wo3 79,358 % Wo. Falls sie tatsächlich Wo3 (Krasnogorite) meinen, ist der Wert 79,3.
Ansonsten schau mal bei www.webmineral.com vorbei ;-)

P.S. Kann mir mal jemand erklären, wie die auf solch hohe $/t-Zahlen kommen?

Kann mir mal jemand erklären, wie die auf solch hohe $/t-Zahlen kommen?

in der news beziehen sie sich auf APT und einen 3-jahres durchschnittspreis von 231usd/mtu, also für 1kg APT =23,1 usd

für moly wurde mit 28,84usd/lb kalkuliert

[RMINCONSULT]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.216.051 von Urlaub2 am 30.01.08 17:04:48

Umrechnung WO3 in W ergibt gerundet immer 79%.
Aber der wesentliche Schritt ist die Ausbringung(recovery rate) des Minerals Scheelit (Calciumwolframat, CaWO4)aus dem Gestein. Dies erfolgt in der Regel durch Flotation; solange man nichts besseres weiß, kann man mit einer Ausbringung von 75% aus dem zerkleinerten Erz rechnen.
Die bisher genannten WO3-Gehalte wurden ja ohne Berücksichtigung der Bindungsform(also in welcher chemischen Verbindung das Wolfram eigentlich verborgen ist) mit einer physikalischen Mehode, die man als Röntgenfluoreszenzanalyse bezeichnet, über eine emittierte Röntgenstrahlung direkt als Wolfram-Gehalt gemessen. Die Angabe als WO3, also in der Oxidform, ist eine reine Konvention, hat sich aber für sauerstoffhaltige Verbindungen als praktikabel erwiesen.

[saltamonte]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.217.311 von RMINCONSULT am 30.01.08 18:37:40

hey rminconsult - wie gerufen, wollte dich schon kontaktieren bezüglich der möglichkeiten, die man "onsite sangdong" bewerkstelligen kann nach dem groben mahl- und trennungsprozessen.

wegen der preise schau ich immer
http://www.minormetals.com/

dort ist der aktuelle preis (29.1.08)von APT mit 237-242usd/mtu angegeben

[RMINCONSULT]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.216.507 von saltamonte am 30.01.08 17:34:35

hallo Saltamonte,
eine konservative Rechnung mit 90% Erzausbringung (entspricht Grenze der Abbauwürdigkeit bei 0,03%) und 75% Flotationsausbringung würde einem gewinnbaren Wert von 2,2Mrd US$ entsprechen.
Bei einem Untertageabbau wäre die Erzausbringung zu reduzieren.
Man erkennt leicht, dass die ersten mechanischen Stufen für das Ergebnis ganz entscheidend sind. Die spätere Wandlung des Schelit-Konzentrates in ander Wolframsalzelässt keine größeren verluste mehr erwarten.

[RMINCONSULT]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.217.890 von RMINCONSULT am 30.01.08 19:29:18

Nach Durchsicht der Pressemitteilung stellt sich die Situation besser dar:
Aus Versuchen weiß man bereits, dass eine Scheelitausbringung von 90% möglich ist, statt der von mir angesetzten 75%. Die Erzausbringung von gerundet 50Mio Tonnen hat bereits eine Grenze der Abbauwürdigkeit bei 0,15% WO3 berücksichtigt(Kriging-Methode). Damit kann man die gesamten 50Mio Tonnen rechnerisch in Ansatz bringen.
Da als Wertgrundlage Ammoniumparawolframat mit 23US$/kg genommen werden soll, ergibt sich eine gefällige Umrechnung, denn aus 1kg WO3 kann man 1,1kg APT herstellen.
Der Handelsumatz aus 50Mio Tonnen wolframhaltigem Erz berechnet sich so zu 3,188Mrd US$.
Bei einer Förderrate von 5Mio Tonnen Erz/a betrachten wir also hier die Laufzeit für die Starterpit über 10 Jahre. Daraus resultiert ein Jahresumsatz von rund 320MioUS$. Wir kennen noch nicht die Investitionskosten, die Betriebskosten, den Steuersatzund nehmen einmal 8% für den Zinsdienst für Fremdkapital an,dann kann man über den dicken Daumen rechnen:
capex 800 Mio US$ Tilgung 80Mio/a
durchschnitlicher Zinsdienst über 10 Jahre 40Mio/a
Unvorhergesehenes 200 Mio US$ 20Mio/a
Betriebskosten 60Mio/a
Steuern 20Mio/a

Gewinn vor Steuern und Zinsdienst(EBIT) 160Mio/a
Gewinn nach Steuern und Zinsen 100Mio/a

Bei 63Mio shares würde eine Gewinn/Aktie von 1,5US$ oder wiederum gerundet von 1€/Aktie resultieren. Bei einem KGV von durchschnittlich 10 ergäbe sich ein Börsenwert von 10€/Aktie.
Dies ist mit dem derzeitigen Wert zu vergleichen!
Außerdem wurde in der Berechnung nicht berücksichtigt, dass weitere Metalle (Molybdän, Wismut etc.)mit hereingewonnen werden und dass sich die Investitionen lediglich auf die "kleine starter pit" beziehen.
Die gesamte Mine kann aber eine Laufzeit von mehreren Jahrzehnten haben, insbesondere, wenn auch das "deep moly" - Lager aufgefahren werden sollte. Allerdings werden dann auch weitere Investitionen(Schachtabteufung, andere Ladegeräte, Bewetterung) erforderlich. Aber insgesamt doch ein äußerst aussichtsreiches Projekt.

Danke für die Berechnung.

Die 50 Mio. Tonnen sind ja nur ein Teil des Vorkommens.

Die Annahme von 5 Mio. Tonnen Jahresförderung ist auch konservativ.
Wären 13700 Tonnen täglich.
Es sind nämlich ursprünglich 50000 Tonnen pro Tag kalkuliert worden.

Bei einem Kursziel von 10 Euro wird sich auch jahrelange Geduld voll auszahlen.

Erinnert mich wieder an Energulf, die wie OTL lange bei 50 Cent herumdümpelten und ich (halb verzweifelt) empfohlen habe, auch hier bei OTL.

Die wollte auch keiner haben und es gab nur noch Basherpostings.



Haben sich dann aber in 5 Wochen verfünffacht und stehen heute bei 1,78, auch mit Kursziel über 10 Euro.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.229.540 von Urlaub2 am 31.01.08 18:06:04

Ich denke mal, dass am Anfang keine Gube vorhanden ist. Zunächst werden flächenhaft Lockerungsprengungen durchgeführt; dann gehe ich einmal von einem Ladegerät (z.B. Hochlöffelbagger) und einem SKW(Schwerlast-Kraftwagen) mit einer Ladekapazität von 200t aus.
Der schafft dann in der Stunde 3 Touren zum Becher(20'/Zyklus)mit Beladen, Entladen und Hin- und Rückfahrt; das macht im Dreischichtbetrieb mit 20h 12000t/d mit einer Reserve von 4h für Übergabe, Wartung, Inspektion, Stllstand bei Sprengungen(oder ein Ladegerät und 3 SKW und dann 8 bis 10h Erzförderung).
Erst nach und nach wird man die Ladestellen und die SKW-Flotte ausbauen. Bei einem großen entwickelten Bruch sind 50000t/d sicher möglich.
Der Engpass ist dann der oder die Brecher, die Mühlen und vor allem die Flotation. Also man muss hier sehr aufpassen; in der Regel kann man die Tagesförderung nicht 1:1 durch die nachfolgenden Prozessstufen ziehen.
Deshalb ist ein geringerer Durchsatz zumindest in der Startphase realistischer.

[saltamonte]

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.240.874 von RMINCONSULT am 01.02.08 16:24:06

bei den überlegungen zur kapazität wurde immer von einer auslegung der minenanlage BIS ZU 50.000t pro tag berichtet, wobei zumindest in den ersten 6-12 monaten davon ausgegangen werden kann, dass mit wesentlich geringeren tonnagen gearbeitet wird um die anlage "einzufahren".


der wolfram weltmarkt ist nur beschränkt aufnahmefähig und dadurch sind imo max. 20.000t/d durchsatz absolute obergrenze.

aber, und das bringt eben zusätzliche fantasie kann doch die restliche kapazität beispielsweise mit der ausbringung aus dem deep moly deposit ausgefüllt werden bzw. ist ja sangdong als basemetal supermarkt zu betrachten und im umkreis von ein paar kilometern gab es ja schon vielversprechende oberflächennahe samples (weiterführendes bohrprogramm ist ja auch bereits geplant)

wer sagt denn, dass es ein SINGLE starter pit sein muss.

[2014]

Habe ich aus dem Stockhouse-Thread geklaut, ist aber sicher nicht unbedeutend:

"LV just bought 140,000 shares of OTL on the market yesterday."


LV already owns over 11 million shares, and it is one of its largest holdings...

As has been referenced newsletter writer Peter Grandich is anticipated to do a write-up after meeting with management. He called OTL a success! Grandich will likely draw the comparison between OTL, and the acquisition of Tiberon, and could suggest that OTL may blow Tiberon's $300 million purchase price away based upon results to date which suggest similar reserves, the potential of the other 2/3s of the property, and tungsten prices which are now far higher than when Tiberon was sold. China also dominates the supply and has been playing dirty cutting others off.

In OTL's news release the company also announced that it would release a deep moly estimate shortly. OTL also has a gold-silver mine, formerly South Korea's largest gold producing mine, as well as a number of other properties with significant known mineralization and excellent regional potential.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 33.241.327 von saltamonte am 01.02.08 16:52:38

Sicher für die Zukunft gibt es viele reizvolle Varianten.
Wenn nach 5 bis 10 Jahren(je nach Jahresproduktion) der Tagebau eine Tiefe von sagen wir einmal 300m Tiefe erreicht hat, kann man von dieser Sohle aus einen Tunnel in den Berg treiben, eine Kammer bauen und von dort aus das "deep moly" -Lager aufwältigen.
Man könnte auch den Tunnel schräg nach unten führen(evtl. Spirale)und so direkt in das Mo-Lager hineinbauen. Wobei dann W oben und Mo unten gleichzeitig gefördert werden können, was den Barwert enorm anheben würde!
Ich bin sehr gespannt, welche Möglichkeit die Planungsingenieure wann ins Auge fassen.
Was bleibt ist eine große Lagerstätte mit Reserven für viele Jahrzehnte, sodass sich die Basisinvestitionen - eine gleichbleibende Nachfrage für W und Mo vorausgesetzt - immer rechnen werden.

CPM: Moly production, prices will continue new trend in ‘08

The rapid growth of global steel consumption is partly responsible for today’s strong molybdenum demand. However, the current moly rally is different from the long moly rally three decades ago.

RENO, NV -

CPM Group Senior Analyst, Base Metals, Catherine Virga advocated that molybdenum production and prices will set a new trend this year and beyond.

In a presentation to the Association for Mineral Exploration British Columbia's Mineral Roundup, Virga suggested that the present rally in molybdenum prices differs from the 1970s moly price recovery because of shifting organizations of molybdenum supplies; the widening scope of molybdenum end-uses; and diminishing inventories.

"Conflicting long-term goals of by-product and primary producers had historically resulted in large swings in mine production," she explained. However, Virga believes that this year moly will be setting a new trend due to:

* Molybdenum market is expected to become less dependent on by-product producers

* Regional diversification of molybdenum mine production

* Declining market share of dominant players

* Reduced supplies from China.

The changing role of by-product producers, combined with tighter regulation on Chinese producers is expected to continue the present rally in molybdenum prices, according to CPM's analysis. The situation is compounded by a declining number of secondary moly materials-such as recycled stainless steel and catalysts--and a rising cost structure.

Meanwhile, CPM also noted that the scope of molybdenum end-users is expanding as the world's demand for cleaner energy grows.

Virga forecast that the overall contributions traditional moly-producing miners and nations to global molybdenum mines supplies will decline. While China's domestic molybdenum mine production is projected to be less than 120 million pounds annually through 2009, the country's exports of molybdenum oxide and ferromolybdenum are anticipated to dip as low as to 30 million pounds this year due to export quotas.

In the meantime, Virga anticipates that world moly demand will grow 5.8% this year, due in part to the increasing demand for cleaner fuels. She advised that airspace superalloy consumption will increase moly demand as the global airline passenger rate is forecast to grow at an average rate of 5.6% in 2009.

Molybdenum cash operating cost may undergo a three-fold increase to $11.00 per pound by 2011, Virga asserted.

Despite rising costs and decreased production, Virga advised that substitution for the metal is not currently a viable option because "molybdenum's robust properties limit consumers' ability to substitute for other metals in its numerous applications." She also noted that "substitute markets cannot support a large transition from the molybdenum market give their relative size."

Mr. Ian Fodie reports

ORIENTAL CONTINUES ENGINEERING WORK AND DRILLING AAT SANGDONG TUNGSTEN-MOLYBDENUM PROJECT

Oriental Minerals Inc. has providing further results from an additional 12 holes from the continuing drill program at the Sangdong tungsten-molybdenum project in South Korea, including an interval grading 0.97 per cent WO3 and 0.95 per cent MoS2 over five metres. The company has also received geotechnical recommendations for various slopes within the anticipated open pit and an assessment of potential tailings management technologies and site alternatives, while metallurgical work continues.

Oriental Minerals has completed 68 holes at Sangdong and five drill rigs will continue to operate at the site over the next few months. The preliminary economic assessment (PEA) for Sangdong remains on schedule for completion by Wardrop Engineering in the third quarter of calendar 2008. The resource estimate, updated on March 17, will be updated with the results announced on April 9, 2008, for use in the Sangdong PEA.

Significant drill results highlights are tabulated.

SD-54 8 metres 0.13% 130 m 138 m



These results continue to indicate significant mineralization, with a number of positive results occurring right at surface, and other results providing additional confirmation of the deep molybdenum resource, which underlies the Sangdong tungsten-molybdenum deposit under assessment. No significant results were reported by three of the 12 holes released on April 9, 2008. The three holes targeted potential extensions to the known mineralization at Sangdong, as did hole SD-39. The Sangdong deposit remains open in multiple directions and further step-out holes are planned.

Complete details of the drill intersections, using a 0.1-per-cent WO3 equivalent cut-off, an updated drill status table and an updated drill program map can be found on the company's website.

Engineering update

Metallurgy

Approximately 600 kilograms of sample are currently being tested at SGS in Cornwall, United Kingdom, under the supervision of Wardrop. This phase 1 testwork is focused on mineral liberation and recovery. A series of QEMSCAN mineralogical analyses have already been completed and the phase 1 testing has now advanced to the scoping separation tests, which should be completed early in the third quarter of calendar 2008. Toward the latter part of 2008, the phase 2 metallurgical testing program will commence, which will focus on further flotation tests and involve generating larger quantities of concentrate to allow cleaning tests for producing high-quality tungsten and molybdenum concentrates.

Pit slope geotechnical

A Korean firm, Nexgeo Inc., has completed a structural evaluation of the mine site, undertaken a series of geotechnical strength tests on core samples, and developed pit slope criteria for use in the PEA. Pit slopes recommendations ranged from 50 degrees to 63 degrees.

Tailings

Waste rock

AMEC Earth & Environmental has completed an assessment of tailings siting alternatives and tailings technology alternatives (conventional tailings, thickened tailings and filtered tailings), and has provided recommendations that filtered tailings or thickened tailings co-disposal approaches merit further study. Further review of the tailings alternatives will be done as part of the PEA, once waste volumes are defined and the metallurgical testwork provides some data on the tailings properties.

Quality assurance/quality control

Drill samples are one-metre split PQ, HQ or NQ core, or one-metre split RC. The samples were prepared at the on-site preparation facility and pulps were submitted to ALS Chemex laboratory in Brisbane, Australia, and analyzed by ore-grade method XRF-ME05, Au-AA21, ME-ICP41s and Ag-OG46.

Quality control

Blanks, standards, and coarse and pulp duplicate samples were routinely inserted with the drill samples at random intervals. Blank samples were clean, indicating no cross-contamination in the samples. All results confirm analyses of standards and coarse duplicates are within the normal bounds of acceptable error of plus or minus 5 per cent. Pulp duplicate samples processed by another independent laboratory are also within the normal bounds of acceptable error of plus or minus 5 per cent.

FSC / Press Release


KORES to fund Ogcheon Uranium Drilling

Vancouver, British Columbia CANADA, May 28, 2008 /FSC/ - Oriental Minerals Inc. (OTL - TSX Venture, OZ4 - FWB, OMNLF - OTCBB_Pink_Sheets), is pleased to announce that the Korea Resources Corporation (KORES) has agreed to fund Stage 1 drilling targeting part of Oriental Mineral's Ogcheon Uranium project. Stage 1 drilling will consist of a 5 hole, 800 metre drill programme, with Oriental Minerals and KORES jointly choosing hole locations, and KORES bearing the drilling cost. The 800 metre Stage 1 programme is part of Oriental's previously announced 6000 metre diamond drill programme.

The targeted uranium mineralization for this joint program consists of carbonaceous metasedimentary horizons which are regarded as similar to the Chattanooga (USA) and Alum (Sweden) shales but typically with relatively higher uranium (often in excess of 0.02%U) and vanadium (often in excess of 0.3%V) concentrations. The carbonaceous metasediments form part of the late Precambrian to early Palaeozoic Guryongsan Formation and extend for approximately 90km within the NE-SW trending Ogcheon structural lower greenschist facies zone.

Damien Reynolds, Chairman of Oriental Minerals noted, "We are very pleased to be working with KORES on the Ogcheon Uranium project and are especially pleased to have the initial drill programme funded by KORES. Our technical team did significant due diligence to identify the Daejon 29 and 39 claims, and it is clear that KORES shares our excitement about the Ogcheon Uranium projects.. Given our dedication to exploration in South Korea, we look forward to further cooperation with KORES in the future."

Oriental Minerals is the first foreign company to be granted Uranium Exploration and Mining Licenses in South Korea, as part of a substantial portfolio of mineral projects encompassing multiple commodities. KORES is a state owned South Korean public corporation which is dedicated to advancing Korean domestic mineral resource development efforts. It has numerous and significant resource investments in many parts of the world across a range of mineral and energy commodities.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 34.203.917 von muenchenguru am 30.05.08 12:36:30

Imo geht wohl alles von keiner Finanzierung aus.

Zuversichtlich stimmt mich, das Südkorea/Regierung sehr an Exploration interessiert ist. Kores ist staatliches Unternehmen!

Oriental Minerals Drilling Confirms Depth and Extensions of the Sangdong Resource
Wednesday June 4, 8:30 am ET


VANCOUVER, BC--(MARKET WIRE)--Jun 4, 2008 -- Oriental Minerals Inc. (CDNX:OTL.V - News) is pleased to announce further results from an additional 8 holes from the drill program at the Sangdong Tungsten-Molybdenum project in South Korea. The Company continues to advance the technical studies to be incorporated into the Preliminary Economic Assessment (on-track for release before September 30, 2008) and subsequent feasibility studies.


Hole SD-40 has 2 intersections reported of greater than 20 metres. Of significance is hole SD-42 which is open at depth and confirms the down dip extension of both tungsten and molybdenum mineralization at Sangdong, with an intersection of 72m @ 0.14% WO3 and 0.07% MoS2 Hole SD-43 has noteworthy combined intersections of tungsten and molybdenum of 109m @ 0.16% WO3 and 0.06% MoS2 and 66m @ 0.21% WO3 and 0.11% MoS2. The many additional molybdenum intersections to the end of hole SD-43 at 700 metres have contributed to greater definition of the deep molybdenum mineralization.

Hole SD-56 is encouraging and shows the layered zones of mineralization extend the known deposit to the northeast. Holes SD-57 to 59 have given more detail of the limits of mineralization on the southeast boundary, assisting the preliminary mine planning currently underway.

Hole SD-60 is located where the skarn is near surface and has several intervals greater than 0.1% WO3.

Technical studies underway include environmental baseline work, with 3 of 4 seasons already completed and metallurgical studies of a 600 kilogram sample are 60% complete. Pit optimization studies are being updated with these results, as is the Wardrop Engineering resource estimate (announced March 17, 2008).

The details of the drill intersections, using a 0.1 WO3% Equivalent cut-off, are tabulated below:

Oriental gets three more uranium licences


2008-07-09 08:39 ET - News Release

Mr. Ian Fodie reports

ORIENTAL GRANTED ADDITIONAL URANIUM EXPLORATION LICENSES IN SOUTH KOREA

Oriental Minerals Inc. has received the grant of three uranium exploration and mining licences known as Daejeon 80 (registration No. 77073), Geumsan 81 (registration No. 77072) and Goisan 116 (registration No. 77074) in the Ogcheon region of South Korea.

These are the second set of uranium licences granted to a foreign company in South Korea. The first licences granted to a foreign company to explore for uranium in South Korea were announced by OTL in January (see news in Stockwatch Jan. 14 and May 28, 2008).

Commenting on the grant, Ian Fodie, the newly appointed president and chief executive officer of OTL, said, "This additional grant of uranium licences represents progress by our energy exploration team, furthering our efforts to establish a viable uranium asset base for exploration and potential development in South Korea."

The initial two licences announced in January plus the three today are part of a series currently under application based upon OTL's exploration program covering an approximate 90-kilometre strike length of carbonaceous metasediments identified as containing prospective coincident uranium and vanadium.

Two of the three new granted tenements (Daejeon 80 and Geumsan 81) occur along strike to the southwest of the two tenements granted in January of this year (Daejeon 39 and 29), and represent increased coverage by OTL of probably the most potentially economic uraniferous section of the southern end of the Ogcheon belt. The third new granted tenement (Goisan 116) is located within a second potentially productive uraniferous zone at the northeastern end of the Ogcheon belt. Each mining licence title is approximately 1.88 by 1.50 kilometres, or 2.82 square kilometres.

An initial exploration program of geological mapping and radiometric ground surveys will be followed by diamond drilling (part of the 6,000 metres announced in OTL's news in Stockwatch Jan. 14, 2008) to define the potential for significant uranium resources within these registered mining rights. A map of the area can be found on the Oriental website.

The target carbonaceous metasedimentary horizons are regarded as analogues of the Chattanooga (USA) and Alum (Sweden) shales, but typically with relatively higher anomalous uranium (often in excess of 0.02 per cent U) and vanadium (often in excess of 0.3 per cent V). The carbonaceous metasediments form part of the late Precambrian to early Palaeozoic Guryongsan formation and extend for approximately 90 kilometres within the northeast-southwest-trending Ogcheon structural lower greenschist facies zone.

Oriental Minerals is focused on developing world-class mining projects in South Korea. Its flagship Sangdong tungsten-molydenum project is undergoing a preliminary economic assessment as a further step to revitalizing what was formerly one of the largest tungsten mines in the world.

The Ogcheon project is under the full-time management and supervision of Chris Tedman-Jones, MSc, DipCoalGeol, FGAA, MSIA of Australia, who ensures that the work complies with industry best practices standards. This news release has been reviewed and approved by Oriental Minerals' independent qualified person, Al Workman, PGeo, vice-president of Watts, Griffis and McOuat Limited.

Mr. Ian Fodie reports
ORIENTAL MINERALS AMENDS ACQUISITION OF SANGDONG; ARRANGES INTERIM LOAN FINANCING
Oriental Minerals Inc. has amended payment terms for the acquisition of the Sangdong tungsten-molybdenum project in South Korea. The company has also secured a $3-million interim loan financing from Longview Capital Partners, its largest shareholder.
Payment terms for the current installment due for the Sangdong acquisition have been amended to payments of $1.2-million on July 31, 2008, and Nov. 30, 2008. The original terms called for a $2.4-million payment on July 24, 2008.
The $3-million interim loan financing will become due on Jan. 31, 2009, and accrue interest at prime plus 2%. A corporate finance fee of 20% of the principal amount is payable, in shares of the Company, subject to TSX approval. Proceeds from the loan will be used for the current acquisition payment for the Sangdong project, as amended above and will also help fund the timely completion of the Preliminary Economic Assessment report on Sangdong, currently underway and expected to be completed by September 30, 2008.
Readers are referred to the Company's press release of March 17, 2008, announcing an updated inferred resource of 67.7 million tonnes of 0.29% WO3, and 0.05% MoS2, and an updated indicated resource of 12.7 million tonnes of 0.32% WO3 and 0.06% MoS2 for the Sangdong tungsten-molybdenum deposit in South Korea. The NI 43-101 compliant estimate was completed by Wardrop Engineering Inc. and represents a 123% increase in tonnes in the indicated category and a 34% increase in inferred tonnes over the initial resource estimate of January 29, 2008.
Ian Fodie, Oriental Minerals' President and CEO, said, "We are grateful for the cooperation of the Korean mineral license vendor, Mr. Sim, which allows us time to complete the Sangdong Preliminary Economic Assessment and better demonstrate what we believe are very attractive parameters for further investment in the Company. We are also pleased with the support from Longview Capital Partners, as this bridge facility allows us to delay major equity financing until we have completed the PEA. Given recent conditions in the capital markets, we see this arrangement with our largest shareholder as benefitting all shareholders at this time."

Global SmallCap Report / Research Update

28.08.2008


Die Wertpapierexperten des ´Global SmallCap Report´ empfehlen die Aktie von
Oriental Minerals (ISIN CA68619L1031/ WKN A0KFUA) zum Kauf.

Der gigantische Rohstoffhunger der führenden sowie der aufstrebenden
Industrienationen sei ungebremst, noch immer steige die Nachfrage nach
Basis- und Edelmetallen unaufhörlich. Weil es die Rohstoffunternehmen immer
schwerer hätten, diese Nachfrage zu befriedigen, komme den Explorern eine
zunehmend wichtigere Rolle in diesem Milliardenmarkt zu.

Neue Rohstoffvorkommen würden dringend benötigt und Oriental Minerals
gehöre zu den Unternehmen, die von diesem Trend profitieren würden. Das
kanadische Unternehmen mit Sitz in Vancouver betreibe sein operatives
Geschäft in Südkorea, einem Land, dessen Rohstoffpotenzial noch
weitestgehend unerforscht sei.

Oriental Minerals sei ein Triple Player: Im Portfolio des Unternehmens
würden sich neben Gold- und Uranprojekten auch Liegenschaften mit Vorkommen
von Basis-/Hartmetallen wie Molybdän und Wolfram befinden. Durch diese
breite Diversifizierung sei das Unternehmen immun gegen Preisschwankungen
bei einzelnen Rohstoffen und profitiere gleichzeitig auf breiter Front von
der laufenden Rohstoff-Hausse.

Die Entscheidung, Südkorea als Standort für das operative Geschäft zu
wählen, sei leicht nachvollziehbar, wenn man sich die wirtschaftlichen
Eckdaten des Landes vor Augen führe: Laut dem CIA World Factbook 2007 zähle
das Land mit einer Wirtschaftsleistung von 897 Milliarden USD bereits zu
den zehn größten Wirtschaftsnationen der Welt. Unter den wichtigsten
asiatischen Handelsnationen rangiere Südkorea sogar auf Platz 3.

Oriental Minerals habe in den letzten Jahren eine Reihe von hochklassigen
Rohstoff-Projekten akquirieren können. Die Liegenschaften würden allesamt
nachweislich über nennenswerte Rohstoffvorkommen verfügen. Hervorzuheben
sei das südöstlich der Hauptstadt Seoul gelegene Molybdän/Wolfram-Projekt
„Sangdong“, welches sicherlich das Prädikat Weltklasse
verdiene. Zwischen 1947 und 1992 habe die Liegenschaft mit einer
Fördermenge von bis zu 600.000 Tonnen pro Jahr zu den weltweit größten
Förderstätten von Molybdän und Wolfram gezählt. Ein massiver Preisverfall
bei diesen beiden Rohstoffen habe die damalige Betreibergesellschaft
veranlasst, den Abbau einzustellen.

Die Preisentwicklung bei Wolfram und Molybdän habe in den vergangenen
Jahren allerdings sämtliche Erwartungen übertroffen. Während der Preis für
Wolfram von 4 USD auf 70 USD je Pfund geklettert sei, habe bei Molybdän ein
Anstieg von rund 2 USD auf weit über 30 USD je Pfund verzeichnet werden
können. Für beide Metalle sei angesichts des sich verknappenden Angebots
bei einer gleichzeitig stetig steigenden Nachfrage in den kommenden Jahren
eine weitere spürbare Verteuerung zu erwarten.

Die geschilderte Entwicklung mache die bereits angelaufene Wiederbelebung
des ´Sangdong´-Projektes höchst attraktiv. Gemäß der im März 2008
veröffentlichten NI 43-101-konformen Ressourcenschätzung würden sich auf
dem Areal 12.658.000 Tonnen Gestein mit einem Wolframoxidgehalt von 0,32%
(indicated) bzw. 67.745.000 Tonnen Gestein mit einem Wolframoxidgehalt von
0,29% (inferred) befinden. Oriental Minerals arbeite daran, diese
Ressourcen durch den Einsatz neuer Explorationsmethoden weiter zu steigern.
Im Oktober 2008 solle zudem eine vorläufige Wirtschaftlichkeitsstudie für
das Projekt veröffentlicht werden.

Positive Impulse erwarte man auch im Hinblick auf die weitere Entwicklung
der Uransparte. Dabei seien nach Einschätzung der Experten nicht nur die
globalen Märkte, sondern auch der heimische Markt interessant. Bereits
heute gewinne Südkorea 43% seiner Elektrizität mittels Atomkraft. Bis zum
Jahr 2035 solle der Anteil auf rund 60% steigen.

Last but not least sollte auch die Goldsparte für eine Steigerung des
Unternehmenswerts sorgen. Das Projekt ´Muguk´ besteche mit bis zu 13,5
Gramm Gold je Tonne Gestein, laut einer Studie aus dem Jahr 1998 würden
sich die Reserven auf knapp 616.000 Unzen Gold sowie rund 3,3 Millionen
Unzen Silber belaufen.

Oriental Minerals vereine alle wichtigen Aspekte, die Investoren bei ihrer
Entscheidung zum Kauf von Aktien berücksichtigen würden, und stelle somit
auch für Kleinanleger ein hoch interessantes Investment dar. Das günstige
Kursniveau sei ein zusätzlicher Anreiz, den Einstieg zu wagen.
Charttechnisch sei der Weg bis zum Kursziel von 0,50 EUR frei, melde das
Unternehmen weitere positive Nachrichten, seien auch weitaus höhere Kurse
möglich.

Die Experten von ´Global SmallCap Report´ vergeben für die Aktie von
Oriental Minerals das Rating ´kaufen´.

War mal investiert.
Hat sich damals gut angehört und auch heute, aber zur Zeit werden
Explorer verprügelt und der Abwärtstrend ist immer noch ungebrochen,
deshalb Seitenlinie.

[saltamonte]

es gibt aber trotzdem was aktuelles von haywood über deren einschätzung zum wolframmarkt. kann durchaus sein, dass solche analysen auch in der scoping study eingang finden.

EQUITIES DON’T BENEFIT FROM TUNGSTEN PRICE
Haywood Securities predicts tungsten prices will be stable for next five years

Although Chinese dominance in tungsten is expected to continue, an urgent need exists for alternative tungsten supplies in Western nations.

Author: Dorothy Kosich

RENO, NV -


Current market fundamentals, supported by strong growth in Chinese consumption, unlikely metal substitution, and the increasing costs of developing and operating tungsten mining "will likely backstop the price of tungsten at current levels for the next five years," Haywood Securities forecast Monday.

In its "Tungsten Industry Report," Haywood predicts that growth in tungsten consumption will require the development of 3 million metric ton units (mtu) of production, a 32% increase in current global production." Global consumption is expected to increase from 95,000 tonnes to 125,000 tonnes per year in 2013 with most of the growth expected to come from China.

"The future of tungsten is underpinned by China, a recent net importer of this minor metal," Haywood metals analyst Chris Thompson wrote. "The world's remaining primary tungsten supply, which is limited primarily to a small number of Western world producers, provides only feedstock for Western world consumers. Firm growth in Chinese consumption tungsten threatens to draw more product from Western world consumers unless new supply comes on line in the near term."

While Haywood is bullish on the metal-forecasting a price increase from US$254/mtu to US$300/mtu within three years, the analysts also noted that tungsten mining company stocks have declined an average 63%, 56% and 63% over the past three, six and twelve months as the metal's price remained firm.

"The dislocation between tungsten focused equities and prices has recently widened, prompted by the recent credit crisis which will compromise the ability of potential new primary suppliers of tungsten to finance new mine construction," Thompson warned.

Vielen Dank. Ich bin sehr gespannt auf die Scoping Studie im November - hier wird sich zeigen, ob die Bedingungen fuer einen Verkauf der Lagerstaette ausreichen oder nicht.

endlich wieder mal ein lebenszeichen von otl und ein aktualisierter projektplan (angestrebte produktion 2013)

die vergleichstabellen sollte man aber nur als orientierungspunkt heranziehen, da wird ziemlich viel gemischt...

http://www.orientalminerals.com/i/pdf/OTL_Sangdong_PP_August…

bei den annahmen zur wirtschaftlichkeit aus der sicht des unternehmens sind auch einige punkte hinterfragenswert und die vorwegnahme eines möglichen aktienkurses hätten sie sich imo sparen können. das macht aktuell ohne angaben zur finanzierung keinen sinn (stichwort dilution)

nächster meilenstein hoffentlich heuer noch ist die unabhängige pea, die wesentlich aussagekräftiger sein wird als die geschätzten zahlen vom management

Da gebe ich Dir uneingeschraenkt recht und wuerde meine Kritik noch ein wenig weitergehender formulieren - eine Spanne von 4.90-7.40 USD anzugeben und dabei kein "Wort" ueber eine moegliche Finanzierung anzugeben, dass entspricht in meinen Augen dem Pushversuch vergangener Jahre.

Dennoch, auf die Studie bin ich ab Anfang November sehr gespannt.
