Kleines Vorwort:

Manchmal gibt es Momente, da kommen einem solche Gedanken wie: "Ach wär ich doch damals in diesen oder jenen Wert reingegangen oder länger investiert geblieben".
Das passierte mir nun auch schon öfters vor allem bei selbst recherchierten Werten.
Ich bin ja meist auf der Suche nach gering kapitalisierten Werten, mit welchen die ersten 100% u.U. schnell geschafft sind und investiere daher lieber geringere Summen in viele Werte.
Aber das ist ja jedem selbst überlassen und höchstwahrscheinlich machen es die meisten so, welche amateurmässig auf der Suche nach dem grossen X-Bagger sind.

Was will ich eigentlich sagen:
ich hab nicht lange überlegt und bin in Regency Mines eingestiegen, ein Wert auf den ich durch Zufall gestossen bin, während ich mich für Red Rock Resources interessierte.

Auslösendes Moment war vor allem die äusserst attraktive Marktkapitalisierung von Regency im Wert von ca. 5., Mio britischen Pfund (oder etwa 8,5 Mio Euro) im Verhältnis zu dem geradezu unglaublichem Potential.

Eh ich mir den Wolf erzähle, schaut Euch die Website an und hört / schaut Euch unbedingt das Interview und die Präsentation mit Andrew Bell an.

Fazit: ich habe nicht lange überlegt und bin rein.

Die ersten Ideen sind meist die Besten!

Regency Mines PLC (AIM: RGM; Frankfurt: RM4) is quoted on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange Ltd in London and on the Frankfurt Exchange. The company is focused on exploring areas of copper and nickel potential in Western Australia, Queensland, and Papua New Guinea.

It seeks to add shareholder value by systematic exploration and, where appropriate, development of these assets, and by joint venture, acquisition, and disposal.

Since listing on AIM on 22nd February the company has been involved in the listings on AIM of Thor Mining plc (AIM: THR) on 29th June,Red Rock Resources plc (AIM: RRR),and Greatland Gold plc (AIM: GGP). Regency has disposed of its shareholdings in Thor, and holds 103.25m shares in Red Rock (60.1%) and 1.5m shares in Greatland. The assets held by these companies were not part of the portfolio held by Regency at the time of its IPO.

The Regency tenement portfolio includes extensive areas of known mineralization, on some of which exploration has returned high grades. Exploration of Bundarra has begun with a soil sampling, mapping and radiometric analysis programme that yielded significant results, followed by a 104 hole, 3,033m RAB drilling programme results of which are being appraised.

In 2006 the company acquired 75% of the Mambare Plateau lateritic nickel project in Papua New Guinea and has carried out an initial exploration programme. The resource potential can be summarized as:

Limonite Ore 200 Mt of 1% nickel and 0.1% cobalt and

Saprolite Ore 200 Mt of 1.25-1.5% nickel.

Da sind also 4 Mio Tonnen Nickel auf Papua Neuguinea.
bei einer MK von ca. 8 Mio Euro (bei einem Kurs von 0.033 br. Cent also ca. 0.05€ und 170 Mio Shares.

Dazu höre man in das Interview rein:

Man beachte auch die Verbindungen von Bell nach China, er war jahrelang in Hong Kong tätig, ich habe dazu auch etwas im Red Rock Resources Thread geschrieben.

Chart London:


Da Regency auch in FFM gelisted ist, denk ich, wird auch hier zukünftig Volumen rein kommen. Ich hab aber bei Consors in London gekauft.

So, das wars erstmal....urteilt selber.
Schönes WE.

HEAP LEACH OR DIRECT-SHIP PRODUCTION
Low cost, lower tech nickel mine projects attracting attention

The continuing high nickel price has prompted companies to look at new solutions for mining and treating low cost lateritic ores without the need for high cost complex metallurgical plants.
Author: Lawrence Williams and John Chadwick
Posted: Friday , 13 Apr 2007

With base metal prices all remaining at high levels, opportunities are opening up for the development of projects previously considered sub-economic - particularly if lower cost production methods are brought into play. This is particularly true in the nickel sector where the cost of a metallurgical plant suitable for treating lateritic-type ores can run into a billion US dollars or more which is way beyond virtually all junior miners' financing capabilities. If means can be found, though, of either producing a concentrate relatively cheaply by other means and selling the product to an existing metallurgical plant which needs the feed, or where other metal content alongside the nickel may make direct sale and shipping of the unprocessed product viable, then a whole new opportunity may exist for junior miners.

Such is the case with Regency Mines (AIM: RGM, Frankfurt: RG4) which is confident it can mine low grade nickel limonite ore at its Papua New Guinea Mambare property and direct ship the low grade nickel and cobalt product direct to Chinese blast furnace operations for the latter to make a nickel-rich pig iron as an intermediate product for ultimate stainless steel production. What may make this economically viable is the relatively high iron content of the resource (up to around 50%) which would effectively be free of cost to the Chinese, with the latter paying for the nickel and cobalt content alone.

Regency's Mambare project covers a huge area of 584 km2 which is only 110km by metalled and gravel road to a port facility at Oro Bay. Regency's Graham Rolfe, who is managing the project in PNG, told Mineweb at a presentation in London, that he is confident that such a project is viable and because of the close to surface, and easy working of the limonite material, a project to mine 1 million tonnes a year, and direct ship it to China, could be fast tracked to production in around six months from project go-ahead. Further, according to company chairman, Andrew Bell, there are already expressions of interest from Chinese steelmakers for such an operation.

Previous exploration on the property was conducted by several companies in the 1960's, including the Bureau of Mineral Resources, Homestake-Hanna Syndicate, Amax Mining (Australia) Inc., Southern Mining & Development Co. Ltd. and PNG Nickel Ltd. Exploration consisted of pitting and hand augering with at least one bulldozer trench being dug. Between 1960 and 1971, 240 Auger holes were drilled, and 56 pits and one costean dug. In 1999 Anaconda Nickel Ltd reviewed the data over a 158 sq km area of the Mambare Plateau and estimated two limonite resource potentials: 630 Mt at 0.78% nickel with a 0.5% cut-off and 200 Mt at 1.01% nickel with a 0.8% cut-off. The limonites are underlain by a higher grade saprolite, but this would almost certainly need a high cost HPAL metallurgical plant to process.

The current resource is put at around 200 million tonnes of soft limonitic material at surface grading 1% nickel and 0.1% cobalt, underlain by the harder saprolites with a similar tonnage and grades of 1.25-1.5% nickel. An infill drilling programme is to be undertaken to convert the old Anaconda data to resources and reserves.

Regency's current plan is to mine the limonites and generate sufficient income to be able to contemplate the high capital costs of an HPAL plant at a later stage.......

Würde evtl. in FFM oder zu 0.052 versuchen oder mal mit der Bank wg. LSE telefonieren.
Hatte am Freitag auch erst versucht in FFM etwas zu bekommen, die Angaben aus dem Ask muss man ignorieren und straff seinen Zielpreis bieten.
Bin dann aber auf London umgeschwenkt, musste aber auch da 2 H warten, bis endlich bedient wurde.
Falls Interesse besteht, schau dir mal zusätzlich Red Rock Res. an.

Regency considers fast-tracking Mambare nickel project
16 April 2007

30m Shares Placed At Price Of 1.75p Each
• Directors Of Company Increase Holdings

April 12, 2007 – Regency Mines Plc, the AIM-quoted (AIM: RGM) exploration and mineral investment company with copper and nickel interests in Western Australia, Queensland and Papua New Guinea, has raised a further £580,000 through the placement of 33,178,570 new ordinary shares at 1.75p each. This increases the company's issued share capital to 170,226,376 shares.

The company says that 30,000,000 of the new shares have been placed with City Equities Limited, equivalent to 17.62p.c. of the enlarged share capital. A further 1,214,285 shares are being taken up by Bellmin Limited, a company associated with Regency's chairman Mr Andrew Bell. As a result, Bellmin and Andrew Bell are directly and indirectly interested in 44,914,287 Regency shares, equivalent to 26.39p.c. of the enlarged share capital.

Mr John Watkins, a director of Regency and of Starvest Ltd, a significant shareholder in the company, has agreed to subscribe for 250,000 new shares and is now directly and indirectly interested in 26,350,000 Regency shares. This comprises 25,850,000 shares held by Starvest and 500,000 shares held personally. Together, this represents 15.48p.c. of the enlarged issued capital.

An application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the new shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and dealings are expected to commence at 8.00am on April 18, 2007.

Regency will shortly commence a budgeted $A730,000 exploration programme on its Mambare nickel limonite project in Papua New Guinea which hosts a potential 200m tonnes of ore grading 1p.c. nickel and 0.1p.c. cobalt. The programme will include a ground-penetrating radar survey followed by shallow Wacker drilling at 200m and 50m centres. More than half the budget, however, is earmarked for diamond drilling at 400m spacing.

The company is focussed on possibly fast tracking Mambare to production in the belief that ore from certain areas of the deposit, in which the nickel is accompanied by a high iron content, could be directly shipped to China as feed for blast furnaces. It would yield a nickel-rich pig iron, an intermediate product that can be further processed into stainless steel. Discussions are taking place with two Chinese companies on participation, states Regency.

"The appeal to the Chinese is that they would effectively be paying only for the nickel content of the ore and would get the iron for nothing", comments Regency chairman, Mr Andrew Bell. "That makes for a very attractive proposition", he adds.

Hallo XIO,

bist Du sicher, dass Mt für Millionen Tonnen steht? Es wäre doch auch möglich, dass Tausend Tonnen gemeint sind. Auf der Homepage habe ich gerade einiges gelesen, aber diese Frage, die für die Bewertung des Unternehmens entscheidend ist, konnte ich noch nicht klären.

Hi XIO!

2 Fragen hätt ich zu der Meldung die du gepostet hast.

1) Wenn ich den Link anklicke komme ich zu einer Meldung vom 23.6.2005 von den Anfängen Regency (wo ganz was anderes drin steht)?!

2) Die Meldung die du gepostet hast besagt "a project to mine 1 million tonnes a year, and direct ship it to China,"

Die Ressource auf Mambare sind 400Mt Ore davon 4Mt Nickel (=ca. 1%)

Wollen die jährlich 1 Mio t Nickel nach China verschippern d.h. 100 Mio t Ore nach China verschiffen. Kommt mir ein bißchen viel vor.
Oder wollen die 1 Mio t Ore, also 10.000t Ni nach China bringen. Das würde dann ein Minenleben von 400 Jahren bedeuten?!

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 29.069.855 von max232 am 30.04.07 11:47:38

So, wie ich das dem Interview entnehme, ist vorerst geplant, das Erzhaltige Gestein zu fördern und zu unveredelt verschiffen.
Verarbeitungsanlage ist derzeit wohl kein Thema.

Pro Tonne 1 % sind 10 Kg Nickel in dem Interview das Bell noch 50% Iron.
Derzeit 50.000 USD/Tonne Nickel % 100 = also sind nach gegenwärtigem Nickelpreis für 500 USD Nickel pro Tonne "Rohgestein" drin + Eisen in unbekanntem Wert.

Also wird die Frage sein, was die Chinesen für 1 Tonne "Rohgestein" bereit sind zu bezahlen und was für Kosten für nen Bagger und Trucks anfallen bzw. der Transport auf dem Seeweg.
Die wollen ja auch noch was verdienen.

Hallo XIO,

Danke!

Mit Regency Mines PLC (AIM: RGM; Frankfurt: RM4) hast Du m.E. eine Entdeckung gemacht!

Zum Thema Laterit und HPAL:

- Informationen dazu sind m.E. schön aufgeführt im Artikel „The Thunder from Down Under: Everything you wanted to know about laterites but were afraid to ask“ von Stan Sudol (Canadian Mining Journal / August 2005, s. http://inord.laurentian.ca/Clippings/Sudol/SUDOL08-05.htm.

- Ferner(finde aber das dazugehörige Datum nicht): http://www.chemlink.com.au/nickel.htm.

- Ein Lied davon singen kann auch Minara Resources Limited (ASX: MRE): http://www.minara.com.au/.
- Davon (demütigst ) hier einige Töne: http://blogs.wallstreet-online.de/137-tomcole-notizen/333-ni….

Vor lauter Laterit sollte man m.E. aber auch die anderen Projekte von RGM nicht vergessen (s. z.B. http://www.regency-mines.com/projects.htm), u.a. RGM-Nickelsulfid (s. z.B. http://www.regency-mines.com/6.htm)!

Aus dem 2. ADVFN Thread.... ich gebs ja zu, ich hab das -Fieber

"I posted this to lse.co.uk- but cos it's a long one, feel it ought to go here too. It's aimed at those of you who don't know the context for RGM, it's taken mainly from notes I took from the interview with the chairman of regency on the mineweb podcast:

I am going to stick my neck out here and say this stock is a multi-bagger over the next 12-24 months, and I will be filling my boots with it.

RGM already has a portfolio of Australian mining companies and a stake in Red Rock:-

"Since listing on AIM on 22nd February the company has seen the listings on AIM of Thor Mining plc (AIM: THR) on 29th June and of Red Rock Resources plc (AIM: RRR). Regency held 8.2m shares in Thor at listing and 101.25m (now 103.25m) shares in Red Rock (60.1%)."

Their portfolio is worth more than the share price (when it was around 2p).

During 2008 they will commence the extraction of Nickel ore from their recently purchased Mambare project.

Nickel is a scarce resource which has been rising rapidly in value as international demand increases. Nickel is needed to make stainless steel which is used in the production of cars, washing machines, air conditioners, cutlery etc. etc.

Two thirds of the world's nickel is in the form of sulphide deposits in Russia and Australia. One third is in lateritic reserves. These until recently have become uneconomical to extract from. The extraction process is extremely expensive and subject to equipment malfunction and implementation problems. One extraction machine costs half a billion dollars.

Regency Mining is not planning to extract the ore on site.

Their plan is to transport the iron ore, unrefined, up the Yangtse to be smelted into pig iron and the nickel separated. The chinese get the iron for free, RGM gets paid for the Nickel and COBALT which is contained in the ore.

The site is easily accessible by road (110km to port). This might not seem like a big deal, but if you have been to Papua (I've been to West Papua and PNG is no doubt similar), it's about the most inaccessible place on the planet.

The reason for the existence of the road is that the oil palm industry is already active in the area, and Regency can use the road to transport the ore and take it to the nearby port.

Regency has recently raised a bit of money to pay for more analysis with a ground penetrating radar. They estimate the cost of the further analysis will be 30-40% of £500k so £150k-£200k and they expect to be extracting ore in 2008.

To give you some idea of how much Nickel they have here are some figures:-

The top layer has 200 million tons with Nickel concentration of 1.5% and also 830m tons at 0.78% Nickel

The layer below has 1.25-1.5% nickel (according to a few small profiles). there is additionally .1% COBALT (which costs about $25-$30 per pound).

They expect to be shipping $500m of Nickel a year.

The market cap is currently £6.38m (170,226,376 shares at 3.75p).

The Chairman of Regency Mines thinks his company is the most undervalued on AIM. From what I have found out today, I wouldn't be surprised if he was right."

Ich bin jetzt auch stolzer Regency-Aktionär.

Gekauft habe ich heute in London zu 0,039, also wohl teurer wie alle anderen hier.

Aber wenn Regency tatsächlich demnächst 1 Million Tonnen Gestein mit 1 Prozent Nickel pro Jahr verkauft, ist der Einstandskurs eigentlich egal.

Und bei vorhandenen Reserven für 400 Jahre Produktion ist wohl auch die Rente sicher

Hallo!Finde Regency auch interessant, bin aber noch nicht ganz vom Kauf überzeugt. Günstig scheint sie echt zu sein. Hab bei meinen Recherchen über Regency eine super Alternative gefunden, wobei man abgesichert am möglichen Aufstieg Regencys beteiligt sein kann:

Starvest Plc WKN 913518 (Verbindung durch John Watkins), ist eine Beteiligungsgesellschaft und ist auch an Red Rock beteiligt. Ist bisher kaum bekannt durch die kleine MK, aber man kommt sogar zu Discountpreisen rein:

aktueller Kurs (brit. Pfund) 0,26
NAV des Beteiligungsportfolios 0,38
Stand März 2007

wer bis 25.05. noch einsteigt bekommt sogar eine Dividende i.H. 0,01 (=3,85 %)
nur limitiert über London handeln!

Für alle die nicht in London ordern können einen Tip. Wenn morgen genug Stücken im BID-Orderbuch in Frankfurt liegen würden, z.B. zum heutigen Kurs in London von 4,25 = 0,062€, kann es sein, daß der Makler einen Kauf in London durchführt und die Stücken in Deutschland verkauft. Das wäre für alle dann auch die preiswertere Alternative wegen der hohen Gebühren in London und der Makler macht auch sein Geschäft. Kommt noch darauf an, wie morgen in London der Kurs steht. Dann nochmal abstimmen!
Dies ist keine Kaufempfehlung! Aber so hat es schon daß eine oder andere mal bei anderen Aktien geklappt.

Habe nun auch endlich meine Eintrittskarte zu diesem noblen Club "Regency Mines" bekommen. Allerdings ziemlich teuer (0,045 GBP) und mit Verspätung (Kauf in London gestern, Einbuchung wegen Systemschwäche erst heute).

Ich hätte gleich in London ordern und nicht erst fast eine Woche lang (faire!) Bids an der Börse in Frankfurt einstellen sollen. Meine Ordergebühren hätte ich schon längst wieder reingeholt und den Dauerfrust vermieden.

Das war der bislang holperigste Kauf meines Lebens. Wird wahrscheinlich aber auch ein lohnender. Ab jetzt wird eingesammelt wenn nur möglich.

Das Ask in Frankfurt liegt auch jetzt noch viel zu hoch: 50.000 Stück zu 0,09 EUR, das entspricht 0,0614 GBP.

Regency Mines (AIM: RGM), which is newly recognised as a nickel play, saw its shares gain 43 per cent to 4.5p. The company has an early stage plan to use its Mambare project in Papua New Guinea to emulate Toledo Mining, which is direct shipping nickel laterite ore from its Berong nickel project in the Philippines to customers in China. Watch out for more coverage of this company from Minesite shortly, and listen to Andrew Bell's interview in our most recent Commodity Watch Radio programme.

Regency Mines Trying To Emulate Toledo Mining In Direct Shipping Nickel Laterites

http://www.minesite.com/minews/singlenews/article/regency-mi…

By Henry Sandford

AIM listed Regency Mines, until recently a company with a market capitalisation of less than £5 million, has decided to make its Mambare nickel project in Papua New Guinea its main thrust, according to executive chairman Andrew Bell. The company’s plan is to emulate Toledo Mining, which is also listed on the AIM and has seen its value increase significantly in recent months after it established an operation direct shipping nickel laterite ore from its Berong nickel project in the Philippines to customers in China.

Rusina Mining is another AIM listed company planning the same sort of operation, although its plans are much more advanced than Regency’s. Rusina expects to begin production from its Acoje project in the Philippines in the third quarter of this year, and has also seen its value boosted substantially so far this year.

Of course, the skyrocketing price of nickel has played a big part in drawing investors to Toledo and Rusina, but with many analysts forecasting firm nickel prices for some time come, Regency should not be too late to catch the wave. In fact last week its shares rose by 42.9 per cent to 4.5p and it is still only capitalised at £6.2 million compared with around £40 million for Rusina.

Regency controls 75 per cent of the Mambare project, which consists of exploration rights to 584 square kilometres of the Mambare Plateau in eastern Papua New Guinea. Mambare has been explored intermittently since 1960, and in 1999 Anaconda Nickel came up with two estimated potential limonite resources; one of 630 million tonnes at 0.78 per cent nickel with a 0.5 per cent cut-off and one of 200 million tonnes at 1.01 per cent nickel with a 0.8 per cent cut-off, based on data covering 158 square kilometres of ground. Underlying the limonite layer is higher grade saprolite, and Regency estimates a saprolite resource potential of 200 million tonnes grading 1.25-1.5 per cent nickel, while it is confident in an estimated limonite resource of 200 million tonnes at 1 per cent nickel plus 0.1 per cent cobalt.

Of course, none of these estimated potential resources constitutes an actual resource, but Regency hopes to achieve a JORC compliant resource by the autumn. Andrew Bell says that this will be located at the edge of the Mambare Plateau where there is less overburden, and will likely come in at around 5-10 million tonnes. A work programme of ground penetrating radar and some drilling is planned for the coming months.

From a production point of view, the Mambare project is linked to port facilities 110 kilometres away at Oro Bay by sealed and gravelled roads, with only a final few kilometres of road requiring construction before trucks can start rolling. Regency will also need to construct storage and loading facilities at the Oro Bay port, where Andrew Bell expects to be able to load his ore directly onto deep water vessels, eliminating the cost of first taking the material offshore by barge and then transhipping it, as Toledo does in the Philippines.

Regency has appointed Graham Rolfe, who has some 25 years of experience with nickel laterite deposits under his belt, as managing director of its local subsidiary, and his technical input will no doubt be of significant value to Regency as it attempts to turn its plans into reality. The company certainly has a reasonable chance while nickel prices are so high, and it is interesting to note that two potential Chinese customers have already shown an interest.

Regency also owns a stake of 62 per cent in Red Rock Resources, which was spun out and listed on AIM in July 2005. Red Rock is now acquiring a momentum of its own with its Chiwefwe manganese project in Zambia, coincidentally at around the same time as Regency is beginning to ramp up activity at Mambare. This will make Andrew Bell, who also chairs Red Rock, a very busy man, but also gives Regency shareholders a significant exposure to the upside in Zambia.

Regency Mines: Has its finger in many pies
http://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/articles/article.php?RGM
By:Jackie Steinitz
Article Date: 31st May 2007

Market: AIM Regency Mines has a very simple objective; to maximize shareholder value. Its strategy for doing so however is multi-faceted and reflects the extensive background and experience of the directors in the worlds of mining, finance, the City and Australia.

1. Facet number one is direct investment in exploration assets; Regency owns seven properties including a 75% share in a nickel/iron ore/cobalt project in Papua New Guinea and six copper/gold/nickel properties in Australia. The PNG project may be in production, and highly profitable production at that, within twelve months.

2. Facet two is a advisory business; Regency has used its City expertise and contacts to help a number of other mining companies to list on AIM. For example it helped Thor Mining [THR], a molybdenum-tungsten-uranium explorer, to list, taking a 5% equity stake in the process, which it then sold six months later at five times the cost price. (Watch out for an article on Thor Mining on Proactive Investor shortly).

3. Facet three is equity holdings in other mining companies; Regency aims to drive value through transactions in other mining companies and at present Regency holds 60.1% of Red Rock Resources [AIM:RRR] which is exploring for manganese, iron ore, uranium and gold in Australia and Zambia. It also holds 16% of the US-based Aquarian Gold Corporation which mines coal in Indonesia and trades on the pink sheets [PK:AQGC], and owns relatively small holdings in three Australian-based companies: gold explorer Greatland Gold [AIM:GGP], investment group Sunvest Corporation [ASX:SVS] and the unlisted zinc explorer Range Mines Ltd (which will list shortly). The investment in Red Rock alone is worth £4.2m at today’s prices.

Regency thus has its finger in many pies and many commodities, including nickel, copper, gold, manganese, iron ore, uranium, cobalt and coal. By luck, or more likely by judgment, many of these are at historically high prices. Nickel, which is used primarily in stainless steel manufacture, has been the star of the base metals in recent years; prices today are more than double a year ago and five times the level of 2003. And, according to Regency’s chairman Andrew Bell, high prices for nickel are here to stay. Just listen to the Commodity Watch radio extract on Regency’s website where you can hear Mr Bell wax lyrical about the potential for nickel demand as China and India, indeed some 40%+ of the world’s population, are living through an industrial revolution and acquiring stainless steel fridges, cars, washing machines, motorbikes, air conditioning units and the like.

The jewel in Regency’s crown is currently the 584 square kilometre Mambare nickel laterite project in Papua New Guinea which is located at 800 metres altitude on a plateau just north of Kokoda (which the historians among you may know better as the site of a number of world war two battles and campaigns). Parts of the area have been explored for nickel since the 1960s, and in 1999 Anaconda Nickel Ltd (now Minara Resources) reviewed the data on a 158 square kilometre section of the project and estimated that the limonite laterite which lies under 3 to 5 metres of ash overburden contains at least 200 million tonnes of ore with 1% nickel, 50% iron ore and 0.1% cobalt. The saprolite layer beneath has not yet been extensively drilled, but preliminary estimates by Regency suggest that this could contain a further 200 million tonnes grading 1.25 to 1.5% nickel. If correct these estimates would rank Mambare as a large scale producer, with a potential resource, according to Andrew Bell, of £25bn.

But the story gets better. Mining the ore is very straightforward as the limonite is already broken down to a mud-like consistency. No explosives are required therefore and no crushing is needed – the ore only needs to be scraped and quarried. If the ore were to be processed on site in, say, a High Pressure Acid Leach plant, it would require significant capital investment, of perhaps £400m+. But other options are possible – and there are three cherries on the cake. Firstly Mambare has good road connections directly to Oro port, 110 kilometres away which gives it significant competitive advantage over other nickel laterite deposits in PNG and elsewhere. Secondly because of the high level of nickel prices there is a rapidly growing demand from China for limonite ore grading 40-50% iron ore and 1% nickel which can be used directly as feedstock for Chinese blast furnaces to produce pig iron which can then be refined into lower quality stainless steel (in fact Chinese imports of direct shipping limonite ore for this purpose soared eight-fold in 2006). Regency has recently signed confidentiality agreements with two major Chinese metals companies and has stated that the ore from Mambare would be suitable this purpose. Thirdly there is scope to keep costs low as labour, (though not fuel), is relatively cheap in PNG, and the only capital requirements are for earth moving equipment, truck haulage to Oro Bay and the provision of storage and belt loading facilities at the port.

So it is a no-brainer to work out that the economics on this project could be extremely favourable. At current prices the contained metal per tonne of ore could be comfortably over $650. Of course the fob price of the ore at port will be just a fraction of that, but even under very conservative assumptions the profit could be $20 per tonne shipped. Regency are planning to prove an initial resource of 5-10 million tonnes and to fast track to a neat, slim, low cost production next year operating at an annualised rate of 1 million tonnes. This could generate profits of $20million dollars per year which is considerably more than the current market capitalisation of Regency.

Details of Regency’s other exploration projects can be found on the website. They represent a mix of green and brownfield projects though none yet have a defined resource. The most advanced is the 200 square kilometre Bundarra copper-gold and possibly uranium project in Queensland, Australia. Bundarra was a mining area in the late 1800s and in the 1960s and which has been sporadically explored since then though work was hampered by fragmented ownership. Regency now owns the entire Bundarra pluton (an igneous rock body) which will enable a systematic evaluation of all prospective areas. The area is considered prospective for a large IOCG (Iron Ore Copper Gold) system.

Regency’s investment in Red Rock (which shares three directors in common) may also prove highly prospective. Red Rock are currently involved in thirteen projects for manganese, iron ore, gold and uranium exploration in Australia, Malawi and Zambia (though it will be floating off its uranium assets shortly). Surface sampling at the Mount Ida project in Australia has yielded 66% iron. Meanwhile the Chiwefwe project in Zambia shares many of the same characteristics as Regency’s Mambere nickel project. Like nickel, manganese is used in steel manufacture, and prospects for demand will be underpinned by the industrial revolutions in China and India. The project itself is well located, lying directly on the Great North Road which runs north through Africa from the Zambian capital Lusaka, and very close to the railway to Dar-Es-Salaam which links to the African network. Cheap hydro electric power is nearby. The manganese itself is at surface with an indicated resource of 2.36 million tonnes at 46% on a 550 metre strike length though a further 6 km shows mineralization. There is a process plant quite close by and Red Rock could start producing and generating cash flow shortly.

So there is no doubt that Regency has been busy in its two and a half years of existence. There have been a number of transactions and the company has built up a diversified portfolio of mining assets in commodities which the directors believe have favourable prospects.

At today’s price of 4.38p the implied market capitalization is £7.45m. This is more than twice its value six weeks ago; the share price has been driven by a recent announcement about Red Rock’s JV with Jupiter Mines and by a visit of the chief geologist to London who demonstrated to a few institutions that the Regency story “has legs”.

However the value of the direct investments alone is currently well over £4.3m which puts a value of less than £3.2m on the exploration properties. Yet the Mambere project alone, arguably, has the potential to be generating $20m profits annually from next year, (though of course there are risks to operating in PNG). The valuation is certainly very cheap compared to other laterite explorers such as Toledo Mining [AIM:TMC] (which has a market cap of £102m and a 50-60% share of two projects with a pre-JORC resources of 350 million tonnes), and MBMI Resources [TSX.V:MBR] which has a market cap of £79m and pre-JORC laterite resources in the ball park of 350-400 million tonnes at 1.5%-2% nickel.

Watch this space!

If correct these estimates would rank Mambare as a large scale producer, with a potential resource, according to Andrew Bell, of £25bn.

bell ist hier sehr zurueckhaltend - wie es sich fuer einen briten gehoert. 4Mt Ni sind heute US$ 200bn wert.

bei 170 Mshares outstanding sichert sich der investor 1170 US$ in-soil value (nur im mambare projekt) ... pro share wohlgemerkt .

kuenftige kapitalmassnahmen sind hier nicht zwingend: fuer cash flow wird, moeglicherweise schon in 12 monaten, das PNG projekt sorgen. das erz auf lkw-s zu verladen und nach china verfrachten ist wirklich ein 'no brainer'

langsam kommt hier ein wenig bewegung. frankfurt schlaeft noch, aber vermutlich nicht mehr lange. regency wird ihren aktionaeren noch viel, viel freude machen.

Hallo XIO,

ja, bei einer anfänglichen BM-Diskussion (27.04.2007) wollte ich eine Lanze dafür brechen, nicht nur den Mambare-Laterit zu sehen, sondern z.B. auch die Potenziale von RGM bei Nickelsulfid in Western Australia (WA).

Auf der Website (http://www.regency-mines.com) ist mir damals insbesondere der Hinweis auf "Maggie Hays, WA" aufgefallen, denn dieser Name (gemeinsam mit "Emily Ann") ist Legende. Daher habe ich damals geäußert, dass das RGM-Tenement "Maggie Hays" m.E. ganz eindeutig eine erste Adresse in WA ist.

Bei Maggie Hays und Emily Ann handelt sich um 2 Nickelminen in WA nahe dem Lake Johnston. Unter "Lake Johnston" findet man auf der Website von LionOre (http://www.lionore.com/default.asp) Informationen dazu. (S. z.B. http://www.lionore.com/operations/lakejohnston.asp. Nickel sulfide resources and reserves:
http://www.lionore.com/operations/reservesandresources.asp.)

RGM zeigt unter http://www.regency-mines.com/6.htm ganz hübsch die direkte Nachbarschaft seines Lizenzgebietes "MAGGIE HAYS SOUTH PROJECT" zu den Minen Maggie Hays und Emily Ann und auch die günstige Lage anderer seiner Lizenzgebiete (Lake Percy, Cat Camp, Lake Percy, Mt Gordon, Mt Tay) in der Nickel- und auch Gold-höffigen Provinz (s.u., Abbildung).

Beste Grüße,

Red Rock reverse-lists its uranium assets

Redrock hat die Uran Assets seiner Orion Exploration an Retail Star veräussert, hält nun selber an Retail Star dadurch demnächst 27 %.

The transaction will initially leave Red Rock with 15.5p.c. of Retail Star's issued capital (at a price of 1.5 cents/share). However, on the completion and transfer of certain tenement titles, Red Rock will be issued further equity in the form of converting performance shares and options which will take the company's shareholding to 27p.c. As these tasks are mainly administrative, Red Rock expects to achieve the 27p.c. stake in a short period of time.

China ist ja der potentielle Abnehmer von Mambare.....

China raises nickel pig iron production this year due to nickel price hikes

Shanghai. June 5. INTERFAX-CHINA - China's stainless steel makers have been increasing the use of nickel pig iron as an alternative to refined nickel as nickel prices have soared to all-time high levels, but increased nickel pig iron production is expected to cause nickel prices to fall in the second half of this year.

Increased investment in nickel pig iron production resulted in the import of 3.78 million tons of laterite ore (containing 30,000 tons of nickel metal content) last year, a 6.8-fold increase from the previous year, according to statistics released by the General Administration of Customs. In the first quarter this year, China imported 2.2 million tons of laterite ore, mainly from the Philippines, Indonesia and New Caledonia.

Imported laterite ore is processed in small scale blast furnaces or electric furnaces into nickel pig iron, which is of much lower nickel grade compared to ferronickel that averages above 30 percent nickel.

To minimize costs, Chinese stainless steel makers began using nickel pig iron as an alternative to refined nickel last year. China produced nickel pig iron containing a total of nearly 30,000 tons of nickel metal last year.

China is set to produce nickel pig iron containing a total of between 80,000 and 90,000 tons of nickel metal this year, up between 167 percent and 200 percent from last year. Nickel production is due to reach 210,000 tons with apparent consumption reaching 315,000 tons this year, up 22.2 percent from last year, according to a prediction last week in Hong Kong by Beijing Antaike Information Co. Ltd., a leading consultancy affiliated with the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association (CNMIA).

Low grade nickel pig iron (nickel grade <=5 percent) is mainly used in the production of 200-series stainless steel, the most prevalent stainless steel in China. Some steel mills such as Shanghai Baosteel and Taiyuan Iron and Steel Group Co. Ltd. (TISCO) recently started production of 300-series stainless steel using nickel pig iron, Antaike analyst, Chen Shufang, said.

China's nickel pig iron sells for an average of 15 percent less than refined nickel on the London Metal Exchange. China's nickel pig iron varies in grade from between 1 percent to 25 percent grade, depending on production facility.

Jim Lennon, executive director of commodities and mining research with Macquarie Bank, forecasted last week in Hong Kong that the LME three-month nickel price would probably fall to $40,000 per ton in the second half of this year, due to China's increased nickel pig iron production since 2006 and possible domestic stainless steel oversupply in the second half of this year.

He forecasted that China's laterite ore imports would climb to 10 million tons this year and contain 80,000 tons of nickel metal content, while Beijing Antaike predicted laterite ore imports would be between 8 million and 9 million tons this year.

Chen from Antaike also predicted a nickel price fall in the second half of this year, and that the average LME three-month nickel price would remain at $42,000 per ton this year, due to increased nickel pig iron production in China, combined with a reduction in stainless steel production in some steel mills.

"Some stainless steel mills in Europe and the United Sates have announced austenite steel production cuts for the third quarter this year, and I believe some Chinese steel mills will reduce nickel-contained stainless steel production in the second half of the year, if nickel prices continue to rise," Chen said.

The LME three-month nickel price closed at $47,400 per ton Friday overnight, surging $1,400 from previous day's trade.

Nickel pig iron producers

There are currently over 30 nickel pig iron producers in China, located in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Hainan, Sichuan, Shandong, Hebei, Shanxi and Fujian provinces.

Privately-owned Zhejiang Huaguang Smelting Group is China's largest nickel pig iron producer, capable of producing 1 million tons of nickel pig iron per annum, with nickel grades varying from 1 percent to 14 percent.

Huaguang was also the first Chinese company to use nickel pig iron smelting technology.

A senior Huaguang official, surnamed Yang, told Interfax yesterday of the company's success in producing high-grade (8.5 percent to 9 percent) nickel pig iron in blast furnaces this year.

"Our major clients include Shanghai Baosteel, TISCO and Zhangjiagang POSCO, to which we supply 700,000 tons of nickel pig iron per annum," Yang said.

In order to secure nickel ore supplies, the company has developed a nickel mine in Indonesia with total reserves of 120 million tons of grade 1.8 percent nickel, Yang said. Huaguang holds an 80 percent stake in the nickel mine project.

The company's ore selecting plant in Indonesia will be operational in mid-2008.

Sinosteel Group, a state-owned mineral resource product trader, plans to construct a 16,000-ton nickel pig iron plant in Tianjin City's Huanghuagang district, which is scheduled to start operation in 2009. Laterite ore for the project will be imported from Indonesia.

Zhong Yongqi, an official from Sha'anxi Energy Metals and Minerals Resources Co. Ltd. (Sha'anxi EMMR), told Interfax: "Sha'anxi EMMR is a small-scale smelter and can produce 1,000 tons of 3 percent to 4 percent grade nickel pig iron per annum. However, we are not positive about future nickel prices, and predict there will be an oversupply of nickel next year."

"Nickel pig iron is not likely to replace refined nickel for stainless steel production as current nickel pig iron production is relatively small scale, and is regarded as low-grade and unstable in stainless steel production. If nickel prices fall, small nickel pig iron producers will come under pressure from the high cost of imported nickel ore," Zhang added.

The Chinese government is attempting to eliminate blast furnaces below 300 cubic meters in volume this year, and is accelerating steel industry restructuring.

To prevent being included in this capacity elimination drive, many small-scale steel mills have shifted production to nickel pig iron, which is not yet included in the high energy-consuming and highly polluting category being phased out.

Furthermore, some ferroalloy production lines due to be phased out have also shifted production to nickel pig iron, due to the high price of nickel pig iron.

However, domestic nickel pig iron producers still face environmental challenges, as their facilities are still regarded as environmentally damaging, and the government is likely to eliminate nickel pig iron equipment in the near future as it accelerates ferroalloy industry restructuring.

Since China itself faces shortage of nickel ore resources, the country has become more reliant on imports, which has increased nickel ore prices while decreasing nickel pig iron producers' profit margins.

Nickel pig iron's market prospects

Jim Lennon from Macquarie commented that nickel pig iron is not a long term and stable raw material for stainless steel production, due to its high price. Nickel pig iron production is only profitable if nickel prices are above $10 per pound ($24,000 per ton).

The nickel ore delivery price to Chinese ports has increased on the back of domestic demand and a nickel price increase. On June 1, the delivery price of 1.5 percent grade nickel ore imported from the Philippines was RMB 1,400 ($183.22) per ton in Rizhao Port, and 1.7 percent grade nickel ore from Indonesia was RMB 1,700 ($ 222.49) per ton.

Last year, the average price of imported 1.5 percent grade nickel ore from Indonesia was only $60 per ton.

Zhang Mei, a researcher with the Ministry of Land and Resources of China, predicts that supply and demand will reach a balance by the end of this year, with nickel prices possibly falling in 2008.

As for the role nickel pig iron will play in future stainless steel production, it will have a share of the market, but will also be dependent consumers. Stainless steel producers may or may not choose nickel pig iron to replace refined nickel, Zhang said.

"The emergence of nickel pig iron last year was totally market driven. Nickel pig iron will not entirely replace refined nickel for stainless steel production, but the two raw materials will share the market, as long as there is high demand from stainless steel producers, and a refined nickel supply shortage. I was also told that in addition to the small mills, China's giant steelmaker Baosteel is also producing nickel pig iron," Jason Cooke, business development manager with Minara Resources Ltd., a leading nickel producer in Western Australia, said.

"I'm wondering if the Chinese government will impose new policies in an attempt to phase out small blast furnaces for nickel pig iron production, as China is already phasing out small blast furnaces for steelmaking. However, i don't think this will happen for another two to three years," Cooke added.

Although it has been said that nickel pig iron is not as user-friendly as ferronickel, or refined nickel, stainless steel mills have been accepting recent nickel pig iron production. This has resulted in small-scale nickel pig iron producers filling the gap left by the refined nickel shortage. Even when there is an oversupply of nickel, the small mills can drop nickel pig iron, and turn to producing other ferroalloy products, said John Redstone, senior analyst for metals and mining with Desjardins Securities.

According to Warren Gilman from CIBC World Markets, global supply for most of the world's major mineral commodities, including nickel, continues to be tight and is expected to remain so in the near future. Since 2005, a number of new nickel projects have been delayed, which will created a supply shortage until 2009 or 2010.

Gilman also pointed out that it usually takes 18 to 20 months for a mining project to come online and on budget. Recent investment has been limited to prospecting and exploration, but new funds from many mining companies floating on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange will correct this lack of investment in the long run. This time lag will also support nickel prices. Nickel is currently the strongest performer on the LME and is expected to remain so for the near future.

Chen from Antaike concluded that emerging nickel pig iron production would not impact China's refined nickel market in the long run, but the application of nickel pig iron will help to increase China's low nickel content stainless steel product output and expand their market shares.

She suggested that the central government should issue regulations to the nickel pig iron sector in order to aid sustainable development.

Exploration Update



Dated: 18th June 2007

Regency Mines plc (the "Company") announces that a programme of drilling has begun on the company's Mambare license in Papua New Guinea.

The programme will start on 100m centres at the Southern end of the license along the Ukita and Namara ridges and covers areas previously explored by auger drilling and pitting. Drilling will be closed in to 20m centres in certain areas, and will intensify in stages, continue until a JORC resource is defined in the immediate target area, which lies along the edge of the Mambare plateau close to the existing Kokoda-Popondetta-Oro Bay road.

The objective is to identify a resource sufficient to justify a decision to commence direct shipment of limonite ore.

AIM-listed Regency Mines has started a drilling program at its Mambare nickel-limonite project in PNG aimed at identifying a resource sufficient to start direct shipment of the ore.

The holes in the program will start on 100m centres at the southern end of the licence along the Ukita and Namara ridges, covering areas previously explored by auger drilling and pitting.

Drilling will be carried out at 20m centres in certain areas and will continue until a JORC resource is defined in the immediate target area, which lies along the edge of the Mambare plateau close to the existing Kokoda-Popondetta-Oro Bay road.

Regency had said previously it was in discussions with two Chinese companies over the shipping of the nickel-rich ore from Mambare, which also has high iron content, as direct feedstock to China.

Mambare is estimated to have over 200 million tones of limonite ore forming part of a laterite profile up to 15m thick over large parts of the slopes and plateau.

Bin etwas vorsichtig geworden, habe das Prinzip einsatz bei ca. 120% sichern und damit neue Firma aufreissen.
Ich weiss, Einsatz raus ist später nur der halbe Gewinn, aber ich bin eher der Typ Anleger mit vielen Werten im Depot, welche sich selber erarbeitet haben.
Diesmal hab ich mich eben straff an meine eigenen Vorgaben gehalten, musste ja auch nicht mal die Hälfte verkaufen.

Mein neues Objekt der Begierde, welches ich mir evtl von der gesicherten Einstandskohle kaufen will, ist Fundy Minerals, wer Lust hat mit zu researchen, ich mach dann mal nen Thread auf.
Derzeit nur schlecht bzw. garnicht über PLUS zu ordern, gehen aber bald an die AIM.
Sind neu im im Starvest-Portfolio, die halten 17%, RAB 9.
Deren Story geht erst los, man muss evtl etwas mit dem richtigen Einstiegszeitpunkt aufpassen.
Wichtigster Hintergrund: Liberia darf wieder Diamanten exportieren, nach vielen Jahren des Embargos.

Da hast du Recht! Ich hatte nur flüchtig überflogen und das Wort "sold" überlesen. Außerdem steht ja noch: Der Verkauf war aus persönlichen Gründen und Ken Watson hat angegeben, daß er keine Absicht hat, seine restlichen Stammaktien in naher Zukunft zu verkaufen. Da hätte ich bei meiner Übersetzung stutzig werden müssen.
Vielleicht braucht er das Geld für ein anderes Projekt. Er ist ja z.B. auch noch Vorstandvorsitzender von “Redstone Metals Pty Ltd”.
Ich ziehe ja auch manchmal Geld aus einer gut gelaufenen Aktie ab, wenn ich ein anderes gutes Geschäft sehe.

Hallo Popeye,
dies ist nur mein drittes Posting auf W:0. Andrew Bell (CEO von Regency) sagte in seinem Interview auf Commodity Watch Radio (englischsprachig), daß sie 1 Mio. Tonnen von der oberen Limonitic Schicht pro Jahr fördern wollen. Dieser Schicht ist weich und wie eine Art Tonerde. Sie muß nicht gesprengt werden. Sie brauchen nur Bagger und LKWs. Die Straße gibt es schon. Am Hafen selber werden sie Anlagen fuer Lagerung und Schiffsverladung bauen muessen. Ich weiß nicht, wie viel diese Anlagen kosten - werden sich aber in Grenzen halten. Andrew Bell hat in seiner Antwort auf meine Mail nicht viel dazu gesagt ("we'll have to see"). Wenn alles so klappt wie geplant, gibt es auch Diskussionen über eine Bahnstrecke zum Hafen. Damit könnten sie viel mehr pro Jahr fördern. Das kommt aber später, wenn überhaupt.
Meine sehr konservative Schätzung:
1 Mio Tonnen pro Jahr x 30 USD Gewinn pro Tonne x KGV 5 = USD 150 Mio. (£75 Mio.). Heute hat die Firma eine MK von ca. USD 24 Mio. (£12 Mio.).

Regency Mines raises £585,000 through issue of 16.7 million shares at 3.5p each

· City Equities Agrees To Subscribe For 10m Shares At Issue Price

· Funds Earmarked Mainly For Mambare Nickel-Cobalt Project In PNG

Regency Mines plc, the AIM-quoted mining exploration and mineral investment company with copper and nickel interests in Western Australia, Queensland and Papua New Guinea, has raised £585,000 through an issue of 16,714,286 new ordinary shares at 3.5p each, conditional upon the new shares being admitted to trading on AIM.

The company has made the relevant application to the London Stock Exchange and dealings are expected to commence on September 18, 2007. Following issue of the new shares Regency's total issued capital increases to 186,940,662 shares.

City Equities Limited has agreed to subscribe for 10m of the new shares at 3.5p each, equivalent to approximately 5.35p.c. of Regency's enlarged share capital.

Commenting today, Regency's chairman, Mr Andrew Bell indicated that the new funds would be employed principally on advancing the company's Mambare nickel-cobalt limonite project in Papua New Guinea where three drill rigs are operating. The company is working to fast-track the project into production in the belief that ore from certain areas of the deposit could be directly shipped to China as blast furnace feed. This would yield a nickel-rich pig iron that could then be upgraded into stainless steel.

Exploration Update



Dated: 24th September 2007

Regency Mines plc ("the Company") the mining exploration and mineral investment
company with interests in copper and nickel in Papua New Guinea, Western
Australia, and Queensland, is progressing with exploration at the Company's
lateritic Nickel-Cobalt project at Mambare Plateau, Papua New Guinea ("Mambare
").



To date 30 auger core holes (CAA 1-30) have been drilled. These holes have been
located at 100m intervals on lines 22400, 22800 and 23200N across the previously
explored ridge west of the Arumu River. Individual holes range up to 10.3m in
depth and total 167m. Limonite laterite has been intersected in all holes. Up to
7.65 metres of limonite laterite has been intersected in individual holes.
Overlying ash is commonly less than 3m thick. 180 samples have been submitted to
an Indonesian laboratory for XRF analyses.



One auger core drill has been equipped with hydraulic feed and is currently in
use. Another auger core rig is being rebuilt and equipped with hydraulic feed
and a diamond drill bit to effect better penetration, to ensure intersection of
the complete limonite profile, which the holes drilled to date have failed to
do. The Company is sourcing an additional diamond drill rig, since only diamond
drilling will penetrate fully the harder saprolite ore underlying the limonite.



The wacker drill encountered early problems which have been addressed by
fabricating stronger wacker rods in Australia. These have now arrived in Papua
New Guinea and are currently in transit to Kokoda. It is anticipated that the
wacker drilling will recommence this week.



The Company has entered into a Research Services Agreement with the General
Research Institute for Nonferrous Metals (GRINM) of Beijing, China. This
agreement provides for a three month programme of hydrometallurgical test work
on ore from Mambare. Follow up work will be conducted on site leading to process
flow recommendations and an economic analysis.

REGENCY TAKES STAKE IN ALBA MINERAL RESOURCES AND OPTION
TO BECOME COMPANY’S LARGEST SHAREHOLDER

· Nickel Prospects In Scotland And Scandinavia Are Main Focus Of Interest
· Regency States Current Management The Best Team To Take Projects Forward

Regency Mines plc announces it has taken a stake in fellow AIM-listed company Alba Mineral Resources with an option to become the largest single shareholder by mid-January.

Alba’s interests fit in with Regency’s focus on nickel and its flagship Mambare laterite nickel project in Papua New Guinea.

Initially, Regency is subscribing for £100,000 of new Alba shares at 1.6p each with the option to subscribe for another £200,000 of equity at 1.6p per share up to 15th January 2008. With all shares taken up Regency would have around 22p.c. of the company.

“We are totally supportive of Alba’s management, headed by Chairman Mike Nott and Technical Director Dr Sandy Archibald”, said Regency chairman, Mr Andrew Bell today. “Sandy and his associated geologists are an excellent team, and some of us have worked with them professionally in the past. They already speak for more than a quarter of the company. Regency likes the assets and knows that the people are good, but they have been hampered by extraneous considerations and pressures, which have prevented them from raising the money needed for exploration.

“Regency is going to lift that pressure and see that they are allowed to do what they do best, without interference. Our message is: ‘Do what you intended to do at Listing, because it is still the right strategy. We are here to back management’. Perhaps then we can see the share price return to where it was (12p) when Inco decided to come in as partner at Arthrath in Scotland”, commented Mr Bell. “Inco was subsequently taken over but its backing until that time, and Altius Minerals Corporation’s backing for the nickel exploration in Sweden, sufficiently show the potential and scale of the company’s projects. We see Alba’s larger and more mature assets as being the nickel assets, although there is a great deal of potential elsewhere in the portfolio. Alba as a nickel company is perfectly complementary to what we do. We are very happy to be participating.”

REGENCY MINES 2



Alba’s Scottish nickel prospect at Arthrath, near Aberdeen, has been the subject of previous exploration by majors, but Inco and Alba had developed a new model which was to identify the feeder zone that could be a signature of a Voisey Bay type deposit, in a mineralised area believed to be larger than that at Voisey Bay, said Mr Bell.

In Sweden, Alba is looking for magmatic nickel in collaboration with Canadian quoted Altius Mineral Corporation. It holds 3p.c. underlying royalties in Voisey Bay and is presently a 4p.c. shareholder in Alba.

Apart from the nickel properties, Alba has gold and base metal interests in Ireland and Scotland and uranium and IOCG (iron ore-copper-gold) permits in Mauritania.

Before today’s subscription by Regency, there were 66m Alba shares in issue.

Trading Update

Dated: 22nd November 2007

Regency Mines plc ("the Company") the mining exploration and mineral investment
company with interests in copper and nickel in Papua New Guinea, Western
Australia, and Queensland, announces that it has entered into a 'Memorandum of
Investment and Co-operation' with an Asia-based investment group which could
lead to a substantial investment in the Company and one of its projects.

The agreement is subject to contract, due diligence and receipt of regulatory
approvals. It is presently envisaged that the due diligence and other procedural
matters will be completed within three months.

The Company emphasises that while it expects the investment to proceed, the
Memorandum does not constitute a binding commitment to invest.

The Company also advises that following unprecedented damage in Oro Province
caused by Tropical Cyclone Guba, the Government declared on 20 November a state
of emergency. The provincial capital of Popondetta has been cut off from its
airport and from Oro Bay by flooding washing away roads and bridges, and is
short of potable water and food. Up to 150,000 people in the Province are
thought to have been displaced and at least 70 have lost their lives.

The road near the Company's project area from Kokoda to Popondetta, and from
Popondetta to the coast, is currently impassable, but the Company maintains
communication by air with Kokoda. The Company is able to resupply its camp, and
drilling has today recommenced.

Over 40 drillholes have been completed, with samples sent for assay in Jakarta
every week or fortnight, and first results are expected shortly.

The Company announces that as of 31st December 2006 Simple Investments Ltd
became brokers to the Company.

Regency Mines Hoping Transformational Deal Will Be Consummated

By Henry Sandford

AIM-listed Regency Mines, which is capitalised at less than £10 million, hopes that a Memorandum of Cooperation and Understanding it has signed with an unnamed Asian investment group will lead to a bright new future for the company. Although the identity of the party in question is still under wraps, the safest guess is probably that it hails from China.

Regency has said that their interest is specifically in one of its projects, and the most likely candidate is the company’s Mambare nickel-cobalt laterite project in Papua New Guinea. The potential of this project is the most significant of all Regency’s assets, which also include exploration tenements in Western Australia and Queensland. Consequently Mambare has also been the focus of Regency’s activity during the past year or so.

It is noteworthy that earlier this year Regency entered into a Research Services Agreement with the General Research Institute for Nonferrous Metals (GRINM) of Beijing. The agreement provided for a three month programme of hydrometallurgical test work on ore from the Mambare deposit, the limonite portion of which was estimated in 1999 by an Australian company called Anaconda Nickel, on the basis of historic data covering 158 square kilometres of ground, to be as large as 630 million tonnes grading 0.78 % nickel with a 0.5 % cut-off or 200 million tonnes at 1.01 % nickel with a 0.8 % cut-off. Underlying the limonite layer is higher grade saprolite, but less historic data exists on this and hence Anaconda did not come up with a resource estimate for the saprolite layer.

Andrew Bell, Regency’s executive chairman, also reveals that he has expended much energy building relationships for Regency in China, and that he wants the company to do a lot of business with the Chinese in future. He is extremely bullish about China’s economic future, and hopes that by being as open as possible to dealing with them Regency can make the most of it. Bell also recognises that Chinese metal buyers are looking for more control of the mining process and for strategic partnerships to cement this, and Regency is happy to oblige.

Operationally, the company is planning a programme of ground penetrating radar at Mambare for mid-January as its next move; meanwhile auger and wacker drilling is ongoing and a diamond rig is due to arrive around the end of the year. Despite the damage caused to Oro Province, where the Mambare project is located, by the passage last month of tropical cyclone Guba, disruption to drilling has been minimal. However, given that roads and bridges between Mambare and the coast have been washed away, there can be no prospect of direct shipping, which had been under consideration, until these have been repaired, which may take some time.

However, if the mystery deal goes through, and does indeed pertain to Mambare, then Regency could be in less need of the cash flow that direct shipping would provide, as one could very well speculate that any deal done will be with a partner of financial means. However, that deal is not yet in the bag, and the document that has been signed is non binding. So one wouldn’t expect the market to get excited until the deal has been confirmed and the specifics have been revealed.

Regency recently made a move in a slightly different direction when it took a £300,000 stake in Alba Mineral Resources, an AIM listed exploration company in dire financial straits, by way of a placing of new shares. Regency now has 21 per cent of Alba, and hopes that its cash injection will facilitate a turnaround in Alba’s fortunes by keeping it afloat long enough for the company, has a large portfolio of exploration licences in Scandinavia, the British Isles and West Africa, to get its house in order.

Regency Mines Final Results

RNS Number:5899K
Regency Mines PLC
24 December 2007



Regency Mines plc

("Regency" or the "Company")

Final results announcement year ended 30 June 2007



Dated: 24 December 2007



Chairman's statement

Dear Shareholders,

Summary

The Company reports the following developments during the year to 30 June 2007:

* Increased emphasis on exploration of the Company's lateritic nickel
property in Papua New Guinea
* Share price increase from 1.62p to 6.875p
* £715,260 before expenses raised from two share placings, in August 2006 at
1.875p and in April 2007 at 1.75p
* Exploration early in the year at the Bundarra copper/gold project in
Queensland

Exploration

The Company continued in the year ending 30 June 2007 to focus on nickel and
copper exploration.

Early in the year a second exploration programme of the Bundarra project in
Queensland was undertaken with Rotary Air Blast (RAB) drilling of 107 holes.
Copper intersections up to 1.37% and gold up to 0.66 g/t were encountered but
the steeper topography in areas close to the granite/hornfels contact and the
limited penetration of the RAB drilling means that the company will have to
follow up with a more extensive programme, entailing track and drillsite
preparation and a deeper RC drill programme, before any significant results are
obtained.

A preliminary exploration programme on the 75% interest in a large lateritic
nickel licence acquired just before the beginning of the year, covering the
Mambare plateau in Papua New Guinea, was undertaken and produced extremely
promising results. These results, together with the rising nickel price, and the
perceived possibility of early cash flows from export of unprocessed limonitic
ore from the upper part of the deposit, meant that we decided to give priority
to further exploration of Mambare, rather than immediate follow-up of the
Bundarra results.

An infrastructure study was carried out on Mambare and on the road and port
facilities in the area. The study gave initial confirmation of the
practicability of a trucking and shipping operation.

Exploration work on site got under way slowly as the Company wanted initially to
carry out ground penetrating radar work on a portion of the licence, which was
delayed by the contractor being held up on a previous job. Eventually, rather
than waiting for the delayed contractor, the Company brought three drills on
site to start the drill programme. Despite some initial issues with maintenance
and supply, which were exacerbated by the election taking place in the country,
drilling got under way.

Red Rock Resources Plc

The Company maintains its substantial interest in the AIM-quoted Red Rock
Resources Plc ("Red Rock"). By the end of the year its shareholding in Red Rock,
of 103,250,000 shares, had been diluted to below 50% (45.8%) as a result of
placings of new shares by Red Rock.

Post-balance sheet events

A further issue of stock on 12 September 2007 at 3.5p per share strengthened the
Company's balance sheet by raising £585,000 before expenses.

Exploration at Mambare continued, with over 40 drillholes completed by the
hydraulic auger drill and wacker drill, and with samples being sent weekly/
fortnightly to Jakarta for analysis. Even with a hydraulic unit fitted, the
auger drill proved to have very limited penetration, failing even to penetrate
the limonite layer completely and not reaching the saprolite layer. The wacker
drill has proved to provide better penetration..

In November an unexpected and unprecedented event occurred, which seems certain
to delay any prospect of trucking ore for direct shipment from the project area
to Oro Bay. Tropical cyclone Guba hit Oro Province (where the project is
located) hard and on 20 November the Papua New Guinea Government declared a
state of emergency. Other areas were less severely affected, and the project
area itself was, by comparison with lowland and coastal areas, less damaged,
meaning that work was able to restart on site once the cyclone had passed.
However the roads east, which lead to the provincial capital at Popondetta, and
from there on to Oro Bay, were badly affected with most bridges being washed
away.

Following discussions during the year with a number of Chinese mining groups,
the Company announced on 22 November 2007 that it had entered into a 'Memorandum
of Investment and Co-operation' with an Asia-based investment group which could
lead to a substantial investment in the Company and the Mambare project.

The agreement is subject to contract and receipt of regulatory approvals. The
Company envisages that these will be completed within three months.

The Company also announced in November an investment in 9,375,000 new shares in
AIM-quoted Alba Mineral Resources Plc ("Alba"), amounting to 10.65% of Alba's
issued share capital. One of the Company's shareholders, Starvest Plc, made an
equal sized investment to that of the Company. The issue price was 1.6p,
compared with a price in the market of 2.25p, and at the issue price Alba was
valued at only £1m. Alba holds, among other interests, several sulphide nickel
licences in Scotland and Sweden that are of particular interest. Alba had
recently entered into a JV over the Scottish licences with Inco Europe Limited,
a wholly owned subsidiary of the major nickel producer Inco Limited ("Inco").
However, when Inco was taken over by the Brazilian mining company Companhia Vale
do Rio Doce, the JV arrangement was cancelled.

Future prospects

Metals demand will continue to be strong as demand from rapidly developing
economies, such as China and India, continues This provides a favourable
backdrop for all our activities, and our perception of the growing future
importance of China as a commodity buyer and investor makes us ever more
determined to create and develop long-term partnerships in China. We will
continue to devote considerable time and effort to accomplishing this goal.

The Company remains excited by the prospects at Mambare, and will continue
exploration. A man-portable diamond rig is expected on site soon. Samples will
be sent for metallurgical testing in China shortly. In January the Company has
contracted for the much-delayed ground penetrating radar programme to begin, on
prepared lines, in the south-west of the license area.

Regency will review and report on progress in and prospects for repairing the
typhoon damage early in the New Year.

We will work towards an early conclusion of the planned investment in the
Mambare project, which would allow an accelerated and intensive exploration
programme to begin.

Exploration is planned on the Company's nickel sulphide licences in Western
Australia.

Options for further work at Bundarra are being reviewed.

Prices of iron ore and manganese have been strengthening and are expected to
remain strong in 2008. Red Rock's prime exploration assets in these commodities
in regions that are now the focus of strong investment interest make this
strategic investment likely to continue to be the core component of Regency's
investment strategy.

Regency will also attempt to crystallise value for its zinc assets held through
Range Mines Limited and will discuss with Alba Mineral Resources Plc, in which
it is now a substantial shareholder, ways in which the groups can co-operate to
maximise the value of Alba's assets and in particular its nickel portfolio.

Visible gold identified at Bundarra
http://www.minebox.com/story.asp?articleId=10925




Visible gold has been identified in drill holes at both the Wonder North and Bluebush deposits at Terrain Minerals’ Bundarra project in Western Australia.

The Bundarra project is located 65km north of Leonora in Western Australia. Terrain has consolidated ownership of a number of disparate tenements into a substantial gold project with a current JORC-compliant mineral resource containing 195,000oz of gold.

Terrain is currently focused on resource definition drilling at the Wonder North deposit, the Great Western and Black Cat prospects, plus the new Bluebush discovery, announced in October 2007.

At the Wonder North deposit, drilling is in progress to fill in “holes” in the existing drill coverage and test down dip and down plunge extensions of the current resource (1.98mt at 2.13 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (136,500 oz).

Drill intercepts from the ongoing resource development drilling program at this deposit include:
• WNDD 009: 2.8m at 8.31g/t gold;
• WNRCD 235: 16.6m at 3.40g/t gold; and
• WNRCD 250: 16.0m at 6.90g/t gold including 7.0m at 13.44g/t gold.

Visible gold, up to 2mm across, has been identified; associated with quartz veining in the mineralised intervals.

Assay results are pending from a further five holes and drilling is ongoing to test further the projected down dip and down plunge extensions of the known mineralisation.

At the Blubush Prospect, two diamond drill holes (015 & 016) have been drilled to further evaluate the controls on the Bluebush mineralisation; together with an additional five RC holes (017 – 021). Assay results are still pending from holes 019 – 021, Bluebush Prospect.

Drill results from a broad based drilling pattern include:
• BBRC 015 4.3m at 6.13g/t gold; and 9.8m at 2.38g/t gold; and
• BBRC 018: 4.0m at 9.19g/t gold; and 2.0m at 6.21g/t gold.

The length of the Bluebush mineralisation has now been extended to 300m and remains open to the northwest, down dip and down plunge. A review of the mineralised drill samples from holes 015 and 018 and a deeper not yet assayed zone in hole 021 has revealed visible gold associated with narrow quartz veinlets.

The assay results from holes 015 and 018 and geological logging of holes 019 and 021 indicate the development of multiple zones of mineralisation down dip/down plunge. Further drilling is planned in March after the RC drill rig completes drilling pre-collars for the diamond drilling program at Wonder North

Keith Wells, Terrain’s Managing Director, said that the Board of Terrain is particularly pleased with the identification of visible gold at Bundarra.

“The discovery confirms the potential for high grade shoots within the larger zone of mineralisation being outlined at Wonder North and Bluebush. Further testing of other Bundarra, high grade deposits at Great Western and Black Cat will be undertaken as part of the current drill program. now focused on resource definition drilling at Bundarra,” he said.

Repair Of Local Infrastructure Well In Sight After Impact Of Typhoon Guba

Talks Extended With Asian Investment Group For "Major Investment"

AIM's Regency Mines, the mineral exploration and mining investment company, is to maintain its exploration focus on the company's large Mambare lateritic nickel property in Papua New Guinea, states the company in its half yearly report to 31 December last year.

The programme there, heavily delayed since November through the countrywide effects of severe flooding and infrastructure damage caused by Typhoon Guba, will focus in 2008 on delineating a JORC resource in the targeted areas along the north-south ridges of Mambare that contain the best mineralisation and cross-cut the east-west lines along which the 2007 programme was carried out, states chairman Mr. Andrew Bell. "The speed of recovery from so exceptional an event as Typhoon Guba was encouraging", he added. On the assumption that the Kumusi River crossing is restored soon Mr. Bell sees no further impact from the typhoon beyond the delays already encountered.

Regency believes the Mambare Plateau has the potential to host several hundred million tonnes of nickel ore suitable for export or for processing.

"Following a management visit to Mambare in early 2008 to assess the bottlenecks and the impact of the typhoon, negotiations have begun to bring in an experienced drill crew from another country in the region with additional rigs for a 3,000m plus drill contract to outline a JORC resource, with a possible extension to a larger programme". The drilling will be initially carried out along the traverses of last year and is designed to outline resources of nickeliferous limonite ore for potential direct shipment as well as to begin establishing a profile of limonite and saprolite resources.

Work elsewhere will be to test a geologically similar extension of the plateau that may contain further mineralisation.

Negotiations are underway for leasing a 20 hectare administration site in Kokoda from the government, and a suitable handling area at Oro Port has also been identified and offered.

Regency has extended the timetable of the Memorandum of Investment and Co-operation signed with an Asia-based investment group which could lead to "a substantial investment" in Regency and the Mambare project. "Meanwhile, expressions of interest in co-operation or investment have been received from several other parties", points out Mr. Bell.

The group maintains its substantial interest in AIM-quoted Red Rock Resources with a 39.1p.c. stake and also holds 13p.c. of AIM-quoted Alba Mineral Resources which has sulphide nickel licences in Scotland and Sweden, zinc licenses in Ireland, and a 50p.c. shareholding in Mauritania Ventures.

Mr. Bell concludes: "We have undiminished confidence in the merit and potential of our main assets, and the exploration we have planned for the remaining part of the year, with the management and reporting structures being put in place to control it, are focussed on bringing into public view that unrecognised value".

Regency made a loss of £414,720 (£292,895 adjusted) for the six months' period. Cash at the end of December stood at £160,521 against £188,771 at the start of the period. Investments in associated companies amounted to £2.83m (book value £342,501)

Regency resumes exploration at Mambare

· Mineralisation Sought Closer To infrastructure And Roads

· Programme Of Diamond Drilling Due To Start Shortly

Regency Mines plc, the AIM-quoted mining exploration and mineral investment company with copper and nickel interests in Western Australia, Queensland and Papua New Guinea, says it has resumed exploration on its extensive Mambare nickel-cobalt project in Papua New Guinea, previously delayed by the effects of Typhoon Guba late last year.

An initial programme of ground penetrating radar began last week, extending for 50km along 12 east-west lines drilled in 2007 in the south-west of the company's licence. Drilling with hand-held Wacker equipment has also commenced in the south of the licence on the opposite side of the Arumu River, seeking a possible extension to the mineralised plateau in this area which is located close to existing infrastructure and roads, Regency states.

Diamond drilling at Mambare is also expected to begin shortly, the company adds.

In addition, Regency has shipped a 200kg limonite sample to the General Research Institute for Nonferrous Metals in Beijing for metallurgical testwork.

The overall objective of the drilling programmes at Mambare is to outline a JORC-compliant resource of nickeliferous limonite ore. Regency has previously indicated that the Mambare Plateau has the potential to host up to 200m tonnes of limonite grading 1p.c. nickel and 0.1p.c. cobalt, and that in certain areas of the licence this material is suitable for direct shipping. The limonite is part of a laterite profile up to 15m thick that is developed over large parts of the Plateau and its slopes.

Regency Mines Takes The Kokoda Trail To A Man-Sized Nickel Project

By Alastair Ford

“It’s a real man-sized project”, says Regency Mines chairman Andrew Bell of his company’s Mambare nickel laterite project in Oro province, Papua New Guinea. It’d better be, because it’s located in man-sized country. It was up on the ridges of the Owen Stanley Range, the highest peak of which punches through 4,000 metres, and just a stone’s throw away from Mambare, that the Australian army fought one of its most famous battles of all time, and checked the advancing Japanese at Kokoda. It was a battle famed for the extreme conditions under which it was fought. The days up there are hot, the nights are cold, the rain is torrential, and the potential for disease is almost unlimited. At the battle’s end, one officer of the distinguished 39th Battalion referred to it as the Australian Thermopylae.

The key supply line on the Australian side was the Kokoda Trail, which runs back down from the old mining districts in the hills - opened up in the 1890s - to Port Moresby, the capital. This is also Regency’s key supply line, and although the extremes the company faces are on the mild side compared with those faced by the soldiers who fought Australia’s coming of age battle, it’s not been an easy logistical exercise working up there. Last year a typhoon hit the region, and the road was cut. And not just once, but in thirty places. At one stage Mr Bell had to swim a river in order to continue his journey. He refers to these events, somewhat dryly, as “genuine supply problems”.

However, there may not be a repeat of those supply problems for years to come, because American multinational Cargill has moved into the region in a big way, and is anxious to keep the road open to ensure product supply. This company isn’t in mining, it’s in one of the world’s few other booming sectors, agriculture. The product Cargill wants to ship along the Kokoda Trail is palm oil, which has risen in price dramatically over the past few years. And, with annualised profits of over US$4 billion per year, Cargill certainly has the economic clout to ensure that if the bridges go down, they rapidly go up again.

This is good news for Regency, which ought to benefit directly from improvements in infrastructure, and indirectly from the region’s overall economic growth. The fame of Kokoda is more of a mixed blessing. For a while there was an internal debate inside the company about whether to call Mambare “Kokoda” instead, but it was thought that this might trample somewhat on Australian sensibilities. As it is, another mining company has a license that cuts right across the Kokoda Trail. Nice to have the mineralization, shame the Australian government, which is rather proud of its army’s victory in the hills up there, is lobbying the Papua government against allowing development. And Papuan soldiers died in that campaign too. Luckily for Regency, its tenements sit well to the side of the actual Trail, so perhaps a choice donation to a memorial fund somewhere will be enough to placate any objections.

There are two other major nickel developments in the wider area: Highlands Pacific’s Ramu project, some distance to the north west, and Resource Mining’s Wowo Gap project, situated some 200 kilometres to the east of Port Moresby. According to Andrew Bell, Mambare just might be bigger than both of them. If he’s right, that’s really saying something. But it’s early days yet. Regency knows it’s got good mineralization at Mambare. It also has a fairly good understanding of the geology, so far as it goes. The structure is fairly straightforward, comprising a three to five metre layer of ash, then seven metres of limonite grading around one per cent nickel, 0.1 to 0.2% cobalt, and between 40% and 50% iron. Underneath that there’s a seven to eight metre layer of saprolite grading between 1.25% and 1.6% nickel, and between 12% and 15% iron. The big question is how far the mineralization goes. “It’s potentially one of the biggest nickel projects in the world”, enthuses Andrew Bell, although the market won’t know if he’s on the money with that statement until later in the year, when an inferred resource calculation will be announced. But yes, Regency has finally managed to get drill rigs up those broken roads and on to site.

But it’s intriguing to hear Andrew Bell musing that the numbers he’s likely to present under the Australian JORC reporting code might not be the ones that really matter. They may drive the market in London, but we all know the balance of power is shifting elsewhere. “Several Chinese companies are interested”, he says, “but they’re not a bit concerned with JORC”. What they are interested in, is consistency of grade across the whole plateau that Regency has under license. So all Regency needs to do make sure that drilling takes place right across the plateau, and report the core results to the Chinese. The Chinese will then do their own inferring, without recourse to the Joint Ore Reserves Committee.

Andrew Bell also notes that not a million miles away, across what was known in the old days as the South Seas, Toledo started direct shipping nickel ore from its project in the Philippines before it had proved up a resource. This is mining the old fashioned way, mining before the world was turned upside down by Bre-X, mining when you know the ore is there, and don’t have to prove it to anyone except your buyers. But in these fragile markets the only people with the confidence to approach things that way are at very different ends of the spectrum – the world’s sizeable community of artisanal miners, who mine what they see and worry about tomorrow when it comes, and the Chinese, who have the financial muscle and the overwhelming economic need to buy first and ask questions later.

Glänzende Zukunft für Kupfer ...

OPTIMISM REIGNS: Chile copper conference speakers predict a very bright future
International copper producers and investors at last week’s CRU/CESCO Copper Conference in Chile say they envision a very bright future for copper.

Author: Dorothy Kosich - Thursday , 17 Apr 2008

With near-record copper prices, boundless optimism surrounding China and supply concerns serving as a backdrop, international copper producers and investors think "that robust internal Chinese consumption and aggressive infrastructure spending should keep demand very strong in 2008 and 2009."

BMO Capital Markets Global Commodity Strategist Bart Melek said Wednesday that attendees at the recent CRU/Cesco 7th World Copper Conference week in Santiago feel that the U.S. recession is only expected to have a limited negative impact on global copper demand growth and prices. However, high costs are squeezing copper margins.

"What was somewhat surprising, however, is the extent of optimism flowing through the industry at a time when the U.S. may be entering a prolonged period of below-potential growth," Melek noted. "Even an IMF prediction that the credit crisis could generate $1 trillion worth of losses and a global growth downgrade did not dampen the upbeat mood in Santiago."

The conference's other major theme was mining industry mergers, according to Melek. "M&A activity will most likely be driven by the astronomical costs associated with developing reserves into producing concerns and very tight credit markets. Only well-capitalized players with a proven track record are likely to convince banks and investors to risk billions of dollars on a mining venture."

Although small to medium-sized miners and explorers are the easiest targets for larger company companies, Melek suggests that "the acquisition wave likely won't stop there. Large players will likely use acquisitions of other majors to build capacity, as buying existing reserves is the easier way to go. In addition, many producers believe that markets are under-pricing mining equities, making mergers attractive."

Melek also noted that China optimism, supply concerns and a weak U.S. dollar dominated the conference agenda. "Supply issues ranging from sulphuric acid to labor shortages, and investment flows into commodities were all cited as reasons for company's stellar performance."

China and the developing world "are seen to be driving short- and long-term demand growth, sky-high labour, energy, sulfuric acid and surging capex costs and geopolitical risk were cited as reasons for modest long- and short-term supply increases. The high cost inputs was also repeatedly mentioned as very supportive of copper prices," Melek said.

"According to industry experts, supply of sulphuric acid, a key ingredient in SX/EW copper production, will remain scarce and very expensive for years to come," Melek noted. "Latin America in particular will suffer from the shortfall because of strong regional demand for copper and fertilizers. At the same time, skilled labour is hard to secure and it is getting increasingly expensive. Salaries for geology undergraduates in Canada, for example, jumped to an average of about Cdn$90,000 from just over Cdn$60,000 in 2004."

Melek estimated it now costs an average of $10,600 ($4.81/lb) to develop a tonne of annual copper production. The capex is significantly higher for the upper end of cost distribution, which implies a higher copper price for the upcoming decade, according to the CRU.

Meanwhile, "the rise of resource nationalism and the associated increases in government revenue streams, more stringent environmental regulatory regimes and the credit crunch were all touted as factors set to keep supply growing slowly. The view that robust demand may accompany slow supply growth due to the rising costs given above lends solid support to the argument that copper prices will trend at very high historic levels for the foreseeable future," Melek advised.

Regency Mines signs nickel drilling contract with JCP in Papua New Guinea

LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Regency Mines Plc. said it has signed a
10,000-metre rotary drilling contract, extendable to 20,000 metres, with JCP
Geo-Ex Services Inc at its Mambare lateritic nickel-cobalt project in Oro
Province, Papua New Guinea.
The copper and nickel mining company active in Australia and PNG said the
programme will begin as soon as possible, and last an estimated 120 days for the
initial 10,000 metres. Seven rigs will be operating, it said.
JCP has extensive experience of drilling similar prospects in the
Philippines, Regency said.
Regency said the programme is aimed at establishing the potential scale and
grade of the resources within the entire license area, using the results of this
programme combined with earlier data from a ground-penetrating radar survey.

10:36A - Exploration Update - Mambare

http://www.investegate.co.uk/Article.aspx?id=200807251036358…

Regency Mines plc ('the Company') the mining exploration and mineral investment company with interests in copper and nickel in Western Australia, Queensland, and Papua New Guinea, announces recent developments at its Mambare lateritic nickel-cobalt project in Oro Province, Papua New Guinea ('Mambare').


The ground-penetrating radar ('GPR') programme was concluded during early April and early to mid-May 2008. The work was carried out by Jan C. Francké, and given the anticipated depth of penetration requirements an advanced radar system known as UltraGPR available for application testing since early 2008 was utilised. Jan. Francké has surveyed over 60 nickel laterite sites with GPR technology over the last 17 years.


A total of 51.2 km of UltraGPR data were acquired over eleven profiles, ranging in length from 2.2 km to over 10 km:

The Mambare Plateau is an elevated 20 by 7 km paleo-plateau west of the Ajule-Kajale Range, developed in ultramafics. To the east, these ultramafics are overlain by gabbroic rocks and submarine basaltic volcanics. The plateau has previously been explored since the 1960s by various groups, including the Homestake-Hanna Syndicate, Amax Mining Inc, Southern Mining & Development Co. Ltd and PNG Nickel Ltd. Between 1960 and 1971, 240 Auger holes were drilled, and 56 pits and one costean dug. In 1999 Anaconda Nickel Ltd reviewed the data over a 158 sq km area of the Mambare Plateau and estimated two limonite resource potentials: 630 Mt at 0.78% nickel with a 0.5% cut-off and 200 Mt at 1.01% nickel with a 0.8% cut-off.


Much of the previous auger drilling and pitting, and most of the Company's 2007 drilling, were too shallow to test adequately the limonite ore, and in many cases failed to encounter the saprolite ore or ended in mineralisation.


With the exception of a cover of recent volcanic ash, the deposit is typical of other laterite deposits in eastern Indonesia and Papua New Guinea, with a weathering sequence consisting of limonite, saprolite, and rock saprolite overlying a parent bedrock.


The lateritisation process of the parent rocks at Mambare involves the dissolution of the original rock mineralogy, the leaching of certain elements, and the eventual deposition of those elements elsewhere. The most soluble of the compounds, such as magnesium oxides, are thus removed, increasing the relative concentration of the remaining minerals, which include iron oxides and any contained nickel and cobalt. Over time, generalised layers appear which coincide with the degree of weathering. A typical weathering profile in the survey area includes a near-surface earthy limonite layer of several metres thickness, grading downwards into a thicker saprolite zone. The final weathering layer above the bedrock of closefitting boulders and corestones resembles jointed rock near the interface with the fresh peridotite below.


The depth of the weathering sequence as measured by the UltraGPR programme was highly variable, ranging up to depths of 35m to bedrock. The thinnest region of remnant laterite remains on the steepest slopes, where the laterisation process has been outpaced by erosion. However at Mambare the ash accumulations seem to have acted as a protective cap, inhibiting significant erosion on all but the steepest slopes. Even on moderate slopes, the UltraGPR has detected significant accumulations of laterite.

http://www.rns-pdf.londonstockexchange.com/rns/8831Z_-2008-7…

With lateral variations in the lateritic sequence of more than ±10 m vertically over a few metres, an attempt to map trends between profiles spaced 400 m apart is statistically impossible. Nevertheless, a very crude estimate of volumes may be made based on a simple gridding of the UltraGPR interpretations. These would be over 211,000,000 m³ of limonitic and ash material and 151,000,000 m³ of saprolite material over an area of approximately 22 km².


The survey covered less than 20% of the 20km by 7km Mambare plateau. The dataset suggests that the deposit continues to the north and possibly west.


A 7 rig drill programme to drill 10,000 m (extendable to 20,000 m) is due to begin shortly


Glossary:


Gabbroic (Gabbro): a group of crystalline intrusive rocks composed chiefly of plagioclase and pyroxene, commonly with small amounts of other ferromagnesian minerals, especially olivine. It is the approximate intrusive equivalent of basalt.

Ultramafic: Ultramafic rocks are igneous and meta-igneous rocks with very low silica content (less than 45%), and composed of usually greater than 90% mafic minerals (dark colored, high magnesium and iron content). The Earth's mantle is considered to be composed of ultramafic rocks.

Basaltic (Basalt): a common mafic extrusive volcanic rock. It is usually gray to black and fine-grained due to rapid cooling of lava at the surface of a planet.

Laterite: a surface formation in hot and wet tropical areas which is enriched in iron and aluminium and develops by intensive and long lasting weathering of the underlying parent rock. Nearly all kinds of rocks can be deeply decomposed by the action of high rainfall and elevated temperatures. The percolating rain water causes dissolution of primary rock minerals and decrease of easily soluble elements as sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium and silicon. This gives rise to a residual concentration of more insoluble elements predominantly iron and aluminium. The iron oxides goethite and haematite cause the red-brown color of laterites.

Limonite: called “brown haematite”; a hydrated ore mineral of iron with a variable composition (iron2oxygen3hydroxyl) that causes a range of color (brown/yellow/orange)

Saprolite: the name for a chemically weathered rock. Saprolites are mostly soft or friable and retain the structure of the parent rock since they are not transported, but formed in place. Besides resistant relic minerals of the parent rock, saprolites contain predominantly quartz and a high percentage of kaolinite with other clay minerals which are formed by chemical decomposition of primary minerals, mainly feldspars. More intense weathering conditions, exceeding the saprolite stage, give rise to a continuous transition to laterite soils.

Peridotite: a dense, coarse-grained igneous rock, consisting mostly of the minerals olivine and pyroxene. Peridotite is ultramafic and ultrabasic, as the rock contains less than 45% silica. It is high in magnesium, reflecting the high proportions of magnesium-rich olivine, and iron. Peridotite is derived from the Earth's mantle, either as solid blocks and fragments, or as crystals accumulated from magmas that formed in the mantle.

Regency's releases positive ground radar results

Laterite Erosion Reduced By Protective Ash Cap On All But Steepest Slopes At Mambare

First Attempt To Estimate Volumes Based On Simple Gridding By Company

Guesstimate Of 211m Cubic Metres Of Limonitic And Ash Material And 151m Cubic Metres Of Saprolite Material Over 22km2 Area

AIM-listed Regency Mines has released results from its ground-penetrating radar survey prior to the imminent start of a seven-rig drill programme over the 100p.c. owned Mambare lateritic nickel-cobalt project in the Oro Province of Papua New Guinea.

With the exception of recent volcanic ash, the deposit is typical of other laterite deposits in eastern Indonesia and PNG, says the company, with a weathering sequence consisting of limonite, saprolite, and rock saprolite overlying a parent bedrock.

The ultra ground-penetrating (UltraGPR) programme showed the depth of the weathering sequence to be highly variable, ranging up to 35m to bedrock. The programme was carried out under the supervision of Jan Francke, a leading expert who has carried out GPR surveys on over 60 lateritic nickel projects world-wide. "He has said he thinks this project to be one of the most potentially exciting he has worked on, which encourages us hugely", says Regency Chairman Andrew Bell.

At Mambare, states the company, the ash accumulations seem to have acted as a protective cap inhibiting significant erosion on all but the steepest slopes where the laterisation process has been outpaced by erosion. "Even on moderate slopes, the UltraGPR has detected significant accumulations of laterite", says Mr Bell.

Because the thickness of the laterite sequence can vary by up to 10m over short distances laterally, any attempt to map trends between profiles spaced 400m apart is statistically impossible, Regency comments. However, the company has prepared "a very crude estimate" of volumes based on simple gridding of the UltraGPR interpretations.

This suggests there could be more than 211m cubic metres of limonitic and ash material and 151m cubic metres of saprolite material over an area of approximately 22km2, or one-fifth of the Mambare plateau.

Regency's 10,000m rotary drilling programme (extendable to 20,000m) at Mambare should begin in mid-August. The company's objective is to combine the results of drilling the entire laterite profile in the south-west of the licence area with the data gathered from ground-penetrating radar in order to develop a JORC resource for this part of the licence. Regency may also test the depth and characteristics of the laterite profile on other parts of the plateau to establish scale and grade of the resources within the total licence area.

Regency gives Mambare drilling update
Thursday , 04 Sep 2008

· Over 900m Of Drilling Completed To Date On Southern Area Of Licence

· Samples Being Prepared Prior To Dispatch For Analysis In Jakarta

Regency Mines plc, the AIM-quoted mining exploration and mineral investment company, in a progress report on its Mambare lateritic nickel-cobalt project, says three rotary drill rigs are currently in operation on the property located in the Oro Province of Papua New Guinea. The company hopes to commission a fourth rig within the next few days and expects to have seven rigs operating by early October.

To date, over 900m of drilling has been completed in the southern area of the license covered by the ground-penetrating radar programme earlier in the year. Samples have been collected and are now being prepared prior to being sent to Jakarta for testing.

Initially, Regency plans to complete approximately 10,000m of drilling, but this may be increased to 20,000m if justified. As information from the drilling results is received, it will be combined with data from the ground-penetrating radar programme with the objective of establishing a JORC-compliant resource on part of the extensive Mambare licence.

Update on Mambare nickel laterite project
http://steelguru.com/news/index/2008/10/13/NjYzMDg%3D/Update…

October 13, 2008

The Mambare nickel laterite project area has been explored, intermittently, over the last forty years. About 9 years ago, Minara Resources reviewed the available data on 158 square kilometers of the project, and concluded that the laterite layer nearest the surface contained over 200 million tonnes of ore with 1% nickel, 50% iron ore and 0.1% cobalt. The lower saprolite laterite layer has not been drilled comprehensively, but Regency Mines believes that it could contain another 200 million tonnes of ore grading between 1.25% and 1.5% nickel.

Mr Andrew Bell chairman of Regency Mines indicated that these two layers could be worth GBP 25 billion. Nickel prices have retreated considerably over the last year, however, even if we assume a savage decline of 80%. He added that "We are still talking about a potentially large project. This may explain why Regency Mines, which currently has a market capitalization of under GBP 4 million, has just acquired the remaining 25% of Mambare, taking its ownership of the 584 square kilometer project to 100%."

In April 2007, Regency and two major Chinese companies signed confidentiality agreements concerning the possible supply of untreated limonite from Mambare, as possible feedstock for blast furnaces. This relationship had the allure of early cash flow and low capital investment, and Regency’s shares, and the price of nickel, peaked over the next couple of months.

Apart from having a shallow covering of volcanic ash, the Mambare deposit is analogous to other laterite deposits in eastern Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. Typically, the deposit at Mambare includes a near-surface, earthy limonite layer of several meters thickness, which transitions into a thicker saprolite zone with rocky saprolite sitting on the bedrock below. Nickel laterite ore deposits are all near-surface deposits that have been weathered the layers nearer the surface being the most weathered and easiest to extract. Nickel laterite ore deposits are important because, as nickel sulphide deposits are depleted, nickel laterites will become the predominant source of new nickel metal.

REGENCY MINES PLC
Memorandum Of Understanding
Dated: 19 August 2009
Regency Mines plc ("Regency" or the "Company"), the mining exploration and mineral investment company with interests in copper and nickel in Western Australia, Queensland, and Papua New Guinea, announces the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding on 19 August 2009 (the "MOU") in relation to the Company's interest in the Mambare nickel-cobalt project in Papua New Guinea ("Mambare").
Under the terms of the MOU, the Company and Direct Nickel Pty td ("DNi") have agreed to work together towards a proposed transaction which will pool Regency's interest in Mambare with DNi's lateritic nickel/cobalt treatment technology (the "DNi Process") in a new company in which both parties will have shares, which will have non-exclusive licensing arrangements for the DNi Process, and which will raise funding for the further development of Mambare, including a pilot plant. DNi would assume the role as project operator in the new company, and both parties would be represented on the board and in the management of the new company.
In consideration of the time and resources both the Company and DNi will be required to devote to the planning and implementation of the proposed transaction, they have mutually agreed to grant each other a period of exclusivity up to October 1, 2009, in which they will not negotiate with or furnish information to any third parties on Mambare or the MOU, and in which Regency will not vary or enter into any material contracts in relation to its operations at Mambare.
It is emphasized that with the exception of the exclusivity agreement, and certain procedural matters, the MOU is non-binding and only expresses the intention of the parties.
The parties have entered into the MOU because they recognize the significant potential of both the Mambare project and of the DNi Process, and that putting the two together can maximize the value of each.
Regency has over the past year reviewed the various technology solutions under development that might or might not be applicable to tropical laterites, and that would reduce capital and operating costs of production. It has held discussions or had other dealings with various parties. It has concluded that the technologically advanced DNi tank leaching process appears likely to be applicable to the Mambare deposit, that it wishes to assist DNi in advancing this technology, and that if it were to do so successfully, this would be the outcome most likely to maximize Regency shareholder value.

Hier ist auch der Text von Regency's E-Mail an die Aktionäre heute:


Dear Shareholders and Colleagues,

Please find details of our deal with Direct Nickel.

We believe they have a world-beating technology, superior to any competition, and that the opportunity to be their flagship project is a wonderful one.

They know PNG – through their earlier creation, Nautilus – and have a record in developing and raising funds for important new technologies – again, Nautilus.

And we like them.

Before anyone asks, no, we do not think heap leaching is likely to be viable or competitive when dealing with tropical laterites in high rainfall countries.

These are our judgement calls – and just under half of all the judgements made in the world are necessarily wrong.

If we can succeed in structuring this deal as we all intend, Regency ends up with shares in public company X instead of 100% of our private company Y in PNG. We will however have funded development – without diluting our valuable Regency stock – and we will have brought in a technical partner with a track record and with country expertise. We think that this would be the best of the outcomes available to us, from a shareholder value perspective. It leaves us with virtually limitless upside.

Bei RRR beruhigt mich , die Namen Posco und Pallinghurst dahinter zu wissen, und für RGM entwickelt sich ja auch endlich mal eine Konstellation mit Dritten, welche weitere Erwartungen weckt.

Commenting today, Regency chairman Mr Andrew Bell said:
http://www.mineweb.co.za/mineweb/view/mineweb/en/page674?oid…

"The signing of this joint venture is confirmation that the two companies recognise the potential of both the Botue-Mambare project and the DNi process and re-affirms their belief that putting the two together can maximise the value of each. The agreed structure will bring specialist capabilities to Regency, give us listed stock and remove the requirement for the company to fund future development.

London has heard a lot - from at least three companies - about heap leaching, including heap leaching of tropical laterites. Undoubtedly heap leaching will have its place in certain circumstances. But this is something different, with the potential to change the whole industry, as the Bessemer process changed steelmaking in the nineteenth century. The very high yields and very low leachate consumption seem to offer the prospect of dramatically lower operating cost, and the ability to treat limonite and saprolite ores the same way means that this can be applied to all deposit types".

Heap Leaching Is Not The Only Game In Town For Nickel Laterites, Says Regency, As It Plans A New Aim-Listed Spin-Off
http://www.minesite.com/nc/minews/singlenews/article/heap-le…

The key to profitability lies in the Direct Nickel’s ability to recycle roughly 98 per cent of the required reagent. That means, according to Andrew Bell, that at Mambare total costs for the production of a pound of nickel could come in at “lower than US$1.00”, including a cobalt credit. Nickel prices may not be that strong right now, and indeed most analysts expect them to weaken in the mid-term, but even at some way short of the current US$8.00 per pound there’s a fat margin available if Regency and Direct Nickel can deliver on their own aspirations. Nickel has not traded below US$1.00 per pound in the last 15 years.

uncle john - 31 Dec'09 - 15:19 - 1590 of 1601

Hi all.
Another (rightly) optimistic AGM from Andrew Bell and our directors.
The next event is the drilling in the Lake licence areas, Helen Salmon our geologist goes out to Western Australia after the holiday and applies for permission tostart drilling ASAP, probably February.Drilling contractor is lined up. T

here have been seismiic and ground penetrating radar surveys that have strongly indicated the presence of metals. Au(one), and most strongly af all Ni(3 targets). This is deduced from the geology of the greensand, the achaean, and the Jerdacuttup fault which crosses the tenements, more ground has been applied for to follow this fault.

Nickel is being produced currently from several mines to the west around Kambala.
Helen Salmon has been working with a geologist who has huge experience of that geological system.
Optimism reigns, the metal bearing layers are covered with transported material.
It has been hidden, the driilling will firstly determine the depth of cover.
In the beginning it will not be core drilling so it will be comparitively cheap and fast. There will be a map of the area to be drilled and will show our licences on the website soon.

PNG. nothing new to be reported until the new company is near to being formed in 2010. This will be capitalised at about $150million. TeckCominco and other big companies are very interested in the process and are supportive. [this is not formal and was not specified].
Direct Nickel have a target cost of $1.00 per lb of Ni produced and are intending to reduce it to 85cents, the mining costs are not expected to be high in that terrain. The key will be the recycling of the acids in the leaching, affecting both the efficiency of metal recovered from the ore and the minimising the cost of reagents.

It may be that we have to produce our own electricity from a small hydro plant. Many details have to be considered but overall the priniciples look sound even with Nickel around this price.

Andrew does run a good AGM, he introduced every one there, directors, employees like Ms Salmon, The Broker, the Auditor and even the private investors there.

A peaceful, stable and prosperous 2010 to all involved. John

zu erinnerung vom RRR thread:

beim kursverhaeltnis RRR zu RGM hoeher als 2.83 schenkt die boerse einem RGM investor die mambare anteile von RGM und beschert ihn dafuer noch mit einer zuzahlung. jetzt, bei 2.76, kriegt man diese anteile immer noch fast umsonst.

Andrew Bell wird in sechs wochen demonstrieren, wie schnell und effektiv er die au-produktion in kolumbien vorantreibt. beim kuenftigen ni-co produktionsstart in mambare ist mindestens eine verzehnfachung vom rgm kurs drin.

andrew gibt sich mit schlappen paar millíonen tonnen nickel in mambare nicht zufrieden

nun hat er sich 150 mln t kohle dazugekauft. die kohle liegt 150 km entfernt von einer asiatischen grossstadt mit 13 millionen einwohnern... die seite und AR2009 des in lse nicht handelbaren unternehmens ist wirklich empfehlenswert.

hier die meldung:

Oracle Coalfields (PLUS : ORCP) will receive just over £1 million after acquiring a new cornerstone investor who is taking a 10.04 per cent stake in the company.

Regency Mines (LON : RGM), led by Andrew Bell, is buying 18.5 million shares for 5.5 pence each, a premium to the current market price of 5.125p.

Oracle, which is developing a 1.4 billion tonne JORC measured lignite coal project in Pakistan's Sindh Province, also unveiled plans to list on AIM in the first half of 2011.

andrew bell kommmentiert das letzte deal, rgm potential und kurz bevorstehende (imminent) updates.

MM: Recognising the company’s operations and interests do you feel, particularly with this new deal, that the share price reflects the value and potential of Regency Mines?
AB: Of course not.

MM: What updates can investors expect over the next six months?
AB: Updates on Queensland, updates on WA, updates on Mambare, and updates on Oracle. Some updates have been promised as imminent, and that is because they are! I can’t, as you know, say more than that.

With The Bankable Study On Its Pakistani Coal Project Now Fully Funded, Oracle Coalfields Gets Set For An Aim Listng
By Alastair Ford

It’s somewhat ironic that after all the trouble Shahrukh Khan had in convincing the international investment community that Pakistan was a safe place to do business, it was actually trouble in the West’s own back yard that stymied Oracle’s plans to move from London’s PLUS market to Aim last year. “2009 was mixed, actually, very slow”, says Shahrukh. “Funding was a struggle.” But it wasn’t floods or terrorism that made it so, it was the Western World’s very own new best friends, the bankers and governments.

Guten Morgen! Julian Malnic von Direct Nickel hat heute einen Interview gegeben. Englischsprachig (australisch) und sehr interessant. Kurzfassung: er möchte Direct Nickel zum weltgrößten Nickelhersteller machen, ist sehr überzeugt von dem Prozess und heute sollte es News zum Regency/DNi geben.

Loan Agreement

Mambare and Direct Nickel

Movement to SETS

Regency Mines plc ("Regency" or the "Company") announces that it has entered into a loan agreement with YA Global Master SPV Limited ('YA Global'), which is advised by Yorkville Advisors LLC.



Under the agreement Regency has borrowed $2,000,000 from YA Global. The loan carries interest at 12% p.a. and is repayable in eight instalments with the last instalment due on 26 November 2011. The loan is secured under a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement ('SEDA') between Red Rock and YA Global entered into on 9 September 2009 and by security over certain liquid assets of Regency, including 30,000,000 ordinary shares in Regency's associate company, Red Rock Resources plc.



The loan will be used to finance Regency's investment in Oracle Coalfields announced on 12 November 2010.



Further to its announcement of 19 November, the Company now expects to make a further and fuller announcement on Mambare and its investment in Direct Nickel Pty Ltd later today.



The Company is also pleased to announce that with effect from today its ordinary shares are now traded on SETS (the Stock Exchange Trading System), the London Stock Exchange's Flagship electronic order book.

Diese News von Direct Nickel ist gerade in meinem Posteingang erschienen:

Media Release: 29 November 2010
Direct Nickel Limited Announces $6m investment by JV partner Regency
Mines plc and acceleration of its exploration program on Mambare Nickel
Project in PNG
 Regency Mines plc invests $6m in Direct Nickel Limited placement
 Direct Nickel and Regency Mines to each spend $1.6m in laterite
nickel exploration on PNG project
 Direct Nickel building Demonstration plant in Perth, WA
Today Direct Nickel Limited (“DNi”) announced it will receive $6m in
investment from its PNG joint venture partner Regency Mines (“Regency”)
with the transaction being completed in two tranches over the coming weeks.
The investment substantially fills DNi’s $10m open offering.
Direct Nickel is a privately-owned, Sydney-based nickel company currently
demonstrating a potentially revolutionary process with attractive economics
for treating laterite nickel ores. The placement sets the Company’s value at
$75m, and reaffirms the June 2010 transaction where CSIRO committed to
~$2m equity investment at the same valuation. The CSIRO is Australia’s
premier scientific organisation.
Regency and DNi are 50:50 joint venture partners in the Mambare Nickel
Project where pitting and drilling has previously been estimated to contain 5-
7 million tonnes of nickel. The project is located 85km West of the port of Oro
Bay, Oro Province with unusually good access facilities by PNG standards. It
lies 100km Northeast of PNG’s national capital, Port Moresby.
Both parties will now each spend ~$1.6m to immediately advance the drilling
and definition of the resource. Work will be managed by a joint Operating
Committee with DNi taking on the role of Operator. DNi management is
familiar with the PNG working environment through their building of
Nautilus Minerals Inc (TSX:NUS) which has been PNG’s leading mineral
explorer for a number of years.
Recently released airborne geophysical data covering the Mambare area was
collected for the Papua New Guinea Government and has guided a revision
of the exploration and drill programme.
The partners first announced a joint venture co-operation on 6 November
2009 with a commitment to pilot and apply DNi's advanced nickel-cobalt
extraction technology. With the demonstration of the Direct Nickel Process
reagent recycling circuit completed in August at its facility in Charlotte, North
Carolina, DNi is now in the final design phase for the building of a
Demonstration Plant at Waterford, Perth.
A joint technical team of the DNi and the CSIRO will build a Direct Nickel
prototype facility to process one to five tonnes a day of ore from various
deposits in which DNi has equity participation. DNi has engaged respected
Perth engineering firm GR Engineering Services to support the final design
phase for building a Demonstration Plant at Waterford, Perth.
Regency's investment of $6m will be in two equal tranches of $3m with the
first for payment on 26 November 2010 and the second for payment by 19
December. The consideration will be settled by the issue of new shares in
Regency, at a price equivalent to the volume-weighted average share price of
Regency for the five trading days up to and the five trading days after 18
November 2010.
The existing agreements and understandings between the parties in relation
to the joint venture are not superseded and continue to guide the parties in
their conduct, and over the next weeks the parties will consider, revise, and
adapt the detailed documentation laying out the next stages. Regency made
an announcement to the London Stock Exchange on 19 November 2010
following movement in is share price, and further announcements are
expected from Regency shortly.
Regency’s investment substantially fills the total $10m placement on offer in
Direct Nickel. The Company is now resolved to fill the remaining $4m and to
bring forward its exploration programs.

Regency Mines PLC
10 August 2011



Regency Mines PLC

('Regency' or the 'Company')

Update - Mambare and Direct Nickel Ltd



10 August 2011



Regency Mines, the mining exploration and mineral investment company with interests in nickel and other minerals in Western Australia, Queensland, Papua New Guinea and Pakistan, reports on activities.

Mambare Joint Venture, Papua New Guinea

Drilling continues at Mambare, the Joint Venture nickel-cobalt project between Direct Nickel Pty Ltd ("DNi") and Regency in Papua New Guinea. Visa delays continue due in part to recent political uncertainty surrounding the appointment of a new Government, and may continue to restrict the scale of drilling operations.

Full results from the ground penetrating radar programme are awaited.

Positive visual results and good depths of ore-bearing material from the drilling have been recorded, but no results will be announced until sample analysis results have been received from the laboratory.

A hearing was held on the application for ELA 1953 (geothermal application), with no objections made.

Direct Nickel Pty Ltd

Wintech Group Ltd (ASX:WTG), a company admitted to the official list of the Australian Stock Exchange whose Ordinary Shares are currently suspended from trading, has issued a Notice of Meeting for a general meeting to be held on 2 September 2011, at which proposals for the acquisition of at least 80% of DNi and a change of name to Direct Nickel Ltd will be proposed. Upon passage of the resolutions, Regency expects that it would in due course be offered shares equivalent to approximately 7% of the issued capital of Wintech Group Ltd. and that WTG would apply for re-quotation of its shares on the ASX.

das wird sie schon bzw. ist sie schon gerade dabei.

sehr gute drilling results vom mambare heute, teilw. ueber 3 proc nickel. jorc in sicht - das plateau hat das zeug sich zu einem weltklasse-deposit zu entwickeln. wenn das noch mit dem plant von DNi zusammen kommen sollte, dann sehe ich einem top end scenario eine vierstellige kursexplosion.

systematische drillings (endlich) beweisen hohe Ni und Co konzentrationen und vor allem eine kontinuitaet in der ausdehnung des deposits. alles deutet auf eine durchgehende mineralisierung in einer mit einem bagger erreichbaren tiefe.

die am threadsanfang (vor jahren) erhofften 5Mt Ni werden wahrscheinlich uebertroffen.

und die heutigen auslaugen - resultate mit der DNi technik sind gut.

DNi demo plant, boersengang von DNi, JORC von mambare und eine gute chance, das was noch von beteiligungen kommt (rrr , orcp...) stimmen mich sehr positiv fuer dieses jahr.
