Antimony supply really has collapsed

Antimony is a rare, silver-grey metal. Its most common use is as a fire retardant in objects as diverse as toys, clothing and car and plane seat covers. As an alloy it is also used in soldering, in lead batteries and in ball bearings. It is now also finding some use in microelectronics.

It's a tiny market. Worldwide 187,000 tonnes were produced in 2009. To put that in perspective, somewhere near 16 million tonnes of copper was produced in the same time.

But here's the clincher: of those 187,000 tonnes, 170,000 - or 91% - came from China. But China has capped production this year to 100,000 tonnes. With demand unchanged above 150,000 tonnes, this has forced a supply crunch. As a result, the price has tripled, from $4,000 a tonne in 2009 to about $12,000.

Even at these high prices antimony will still be bought. The amount of metal used in, say, a seat cover is so small that a higher antimony price barely affects the overall economic viability of the industrial item in question.

Nobody quite knows why China has capped production. In the central province of Hunan, which produces about 60% of the world's antimony, hundreds of illegal antimony smelters have been closed down. This may be to do with pollution. The area has a high rate of lung cancer and other illnesses. Antimony and many of its compounds are toxic. The effects of antimony poisoning are similar to arsenic poisoning. Some of the smelters have been told they may re-open once they comply with environmental regulations.

In that context, you can understand China's decision. But the challenge now is to build viable antimony mines outside China. And that's a challenge that's being led by - of all people - the Chinese. Last year the Hunan Nonferrous Metals Corp - the biggest antimony producer in China - paid $29.5m in cash for the Canadian Beaver Brook Antimony Mine. This was North America's only producing mine.
It's hard to find pure antimony explorers

Several other countries look to have significant reserves, including Australia, Bolivia, Canada, Thailand and Turkey, among others. The problem for the investor is that it's hard to find pure antimony plays.

Mountain Lake Resources (TSX.V: MOA) - an explorer I like the look of - might be onto something at its Little River Gold property in Newfoundland. But the company is, in its own words, 'focused on gold exploration'. The same goes for Silverado Gold Mines (SLGLF.OB) which seems to have found something at its Noland Creek project.

Listed on Aim in the UK - and regular readers will know I'm not keen on Aim - is about the only pure antimony exploration play I can find, Tri-Star Resources (LSE: TSTR). But the horse has bolted. Since September it's risen from 0.35p to 1.16p. It's not hard to see why given the antimony story, but this stock now has a market cap above 50m.

To me that's excessive. Its main property, the Goynuk mine in Turkey, may well prove to be the real deal. But it is still, in the words of Tri-Star, 'poorly explored'. In other words, until now, it hasn't been properly drilled.

A 17-hole drilling campaign began in October but we still await results. I'm not saying it won't go higher. But it's hard to justify this valuation at this stage in the company's development. I don't own stock in this one.

Drill results due end of month , price brake out this week

Assay Results





The board of directors of Tri-Star (the "Board") is pleased to announce that the Company has now received all the assay results from the drilling programme completed in December 2010. Having considered the results, despite the area subject to survey representing only a very small part of the Company's licence area, and that additional drilling and evaluation are necessary, the Board is satisfied that the mine contains sufficient antimony (Sb) resources to make mining and processing operations commercially viable. As a result, the Board will immediately begin the process of driving Tri-Star towards commercial production.



The Board is particularly encouraged by indications from the 2010 drilling results that the high grade mineralisation may continue at high levels into areas as yet unexplored. In addition, it is pleased to note that the results indicate that there are layers of high grade mineralisation of 4% to 6% Sb, with areas above 20% antimony, which are significantly above the average mineralisation level.



Unlike many other minerals, the mining and processing of antimony is a relatively simple and low cost operation. Accordingly, the Company will focus initially on antimony, however, the Board does not rule out the exploitation of other minerals if found in commercial quantities.



The Board is in the process of finalising a placing to raise funds for a further detailed assessment of the antimony deposit within the immediate mine area, to extend the drilling programme into new areas of the Company's mining licence and to commence the planning, design and approval process for the construction of a processing plant.



The Company produced both saleable trioxide and antimony metal in 2008 in a third party contract with a smelter. Taking this and the assay results into consideration, the Board considers the project's metallurgical risks to be low.

Positive assay findings for Tri-Star
Article Date: Jan 31 2011

Positive assay results from antimony explorer Tri-Star Resources (TSTR) confirm that it has a commercially viable operation in Turkey. Having completed a drilling programme last month the AIM quoted concern has only explored an area that represents less than 1% of its prospecting license.

Even with this small sample set Tri-Star has confirmed that the high grade mineralisation it has already encountered may well spread to areas it has yet to explore. Layers of mineralisation have proved very high with some rock showing as much as 20% antimony. There is also the distinct possibility that Tri-Star may find gold and silver in its drilling area.

Volume demand for antimony is increasing at 7% per annum with the price recently surging to a high of $13,500 a tonne. The main market is in China with 91% of world supply however the country has recently taken steps to close down some of its mines to help contol supply.

Tri-Star plans to refine its knowledge in the area under investigation as well as further expanding its search area. To help further its drilling programme the AIM listed concern is finalising a placing that will probably secure in the region of $2m. This will be used to commence the planning, design and approval process - a larger sum to undertake a more comprehensive drilling programme is not necessary at this juncture.

The mining of antimony is a relatively straight forward open cast process so there may well be scope to sell the product through a third party smelter or perhaps even operate its own. Last recommended in Growth Company Investor in December at 1.1p the shares have edged ahead to 1.13p and remain a speculative buy.

Tri-Star extends target area

27/05/2011 Miles Nolan

Antimony focused miner Tri-Star Resources (TSTR) has unveiled a much wider reaching occurence of the rare earth than originally envisaged.

Tri-Star has been actively assessing rock samples across its mining site in the Goynuk region of Turkey, however this has hitherto largely focused on a carefully mapped area. Further investigation towards the bottom of the hill 1.2 km south, but within its license area, has revealed highly anomalous antimony and gold.

The significance of the announcement has been lost on some due to the wording that the assays 'were not economically viable', this is due to the rock sampled being at surface - so further drilling is required to further confirm the resource. A spokesperson describes the news as both 'very positive' and 'highly significant' as it adds sway to the belief that Tri-Star has a potential world class deposit, that could stretch further than first thought.

Tri-Star is undertaking an ongoing drilling programme, and recently raised 2.9 million by way of a placing at 1p a share to help fund this. The shares have recovered lost ground yesterday and currently trade at 0.93p. Samples are being sent to Canada to confirm antimony grades with news of the drilling expected by the end of the summer.

The antimony price has held up well at the current level of $16,250, some way ahead of the $4,500 it was trading at a year ago when Tri-Star was set up to exploit the resource. Significantly, the cost of extraction has changed little over the same time period so making the potential mining economics highly profitable. Though the shares are speculative, they could provide good upside from here.

Result of AGM



Tri-Star Resources (AIM: TSTR) announces that all resolutions put to shareholders at the Company's Annual General Meeting held yesterday, were duly passed.



The Company confirmed that, as announced on 26 April 2011, it expects to commence the extended drilling programme at the Company's mine site in the Goynuk area of Kahya, Turkey (the "Drilling Programme") by the end of this month. The Drilling Programme will comprise both in-fill drilling of known areas of mineralisation and further exploration of the Company's prospecting area that surrounds the mine. The Company anticipates that the results of the Drilling Programme will be known by the time the Company publishes its interim results (to 30 June 2011), due for release by 30 September 2011.



In addition, the Company has progressed its preliminary engineering of production facilities. The engineering programme comprises several phased increments of production, from small-scale early production of antimony sulphide concentrates to the building of a full-scale concentrator and roasting plant for the production of antimony oxides. The Company intends, subject to the availability of sufficient working capital, to implement such production phases at the point in time at which the directors of the Company (the "Board") considers it to be commercially viable and when necessary permitting processes are complete. The Board intend that the Company will be in a position to commence commercial production of antimony oxides by the end of 2012. Further updates will be made in due course.

Interim assay results for 2011 drilling programme

Tri-Star Resources (AIM: TSTR) is pleased to provide details of the first tranche of assay results provided by its drilling contractor, Spektrajeotek AS, in respect of its diamond drilling programme being undertaken at the Company's antimony Goynuk property in western Turkey.

Highlights

The drilling performed to date has returned confirmation that the antimony (Sb) mineralisation discovered at Goynuk in 2010 is persistent and extends to the South-East of the property.

The drilling programme is ongoing and further announcements will be made as more assay results are received and when results are fully analysed and independently verified.


Brian Spratley, Chief Executive Officer of Tri-Star Resources, commented:

"I am delighted to announce that the drilling programme at Goynuk is advancing and the initial assay results have shown positive results.

"These assay results are a good indication of the high grades associated with the mineralisation at Goynuk and we are pleased that the silicification and alteration hosting the mineralisation appears to be contiguous between most of the holes. We are all looking forward to extending the drilling programme and the areas of demonstrated mineralisation."


Drilling assay results

A programme of diamond drilling was commenced on 15th July 2011 by the Company's contractor to test for the continuation, or repetitions of, the known antimony (Sb) mineralisation discovered in boreholes GOY10001, GOY10002 and GOY10004 drilled in 2010 at the old Goynuk mine.

The 2011 drilling programme has been concentrated on the South-East extension area, which is a new mineralised zone lying sub horizontal and down dip of the old Goynuk mine workings. The drill programme commenced with diamond drill hole GOY11021, which was drilled to test basement sediments but which was not sampled.

A total of 27 holes have been drilled to date, of which the first 11 drilled in the South-East zone were sampled and are reflected in these results, with the [selected] assays shown in Table 1 below indicating the high grades encountered, notably at the following drill holes:

Hole 22 - 10.00 metres of 1.92% Sb with a high value of 7.07% Sb
Hole 24 - 5.30 metres of 8.02% Sb with a high value of 18.25% Sb
Hole 28 - 6.30 metres of 4.04% Sb with a high value of 13,.80% Sb
Hole 29 - 2.00 metres of 4.82% Sb with a high value of 7.58% Sb
Hole 32 - 2.00 metres of 2.29% Sb with a high value of 4.12% Sb

Tri-Star Resources (LON:TSTR) moved 8% better around midday to trade as high as 0.89p on
almost 5 times the average daily volume. I had a little sift through the recent announcements, and
discovered this “Samples have been submitted to the Activation Laboratories Inc. sample
preparation facility in Fredericton for INAA (Neutron Activation) assay for Au, As, Sb, Ba, Hg, W and
aqua regia assay for Ag, Cd, Cu, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, S, Zn). The Company awaits the results of the new
set of assays and will make further announcements in due course.” The market is awaiting the
assay results, so it is no surprise to see volumes picking up as investors speculate on the outcome.
From the trading floor

Tri-Star Resources confirms further drilling in Turkey

StockMarketWire.com

Tri-Star Resources reports that the antimony mineralization at Goynuk, Turkey, associated with the major east-west fault, provides a significant target strike length for further drilling in 2012.

A new area discovered by late stage holes with significant mineralization including hole GOY 11065 which returned an intercept of 7.10% antimony over 4.70 million

Drilling and modelling have demonstrated the mineralization trend observed over 300 meters across the project site is associated with a regional fault structure that extends across the prospecting license for about 4 kilometers

The mineralization is open east and west from the areas drilled to date

Metallurgical testwork results received from Wardell Armstrong give recoveries of 93% into concentrates of 61% Sb using both gravity and froth flotation methods.

Antimony Technical Collaboration in Myanmar

Tri-Star (AIM: TSTR), the integrated antimony exploration and development company, has entered into an agreement with RDP Singapore Limited ("RDPS") (the "Collaboration Agreement") under which, Tri-Star will provide technical collaboration and advice to RDPS in relation to its Myanmar antimony projects, which include exploration rights surrounding two existing producing deposits and any additional antimony projects identified in Myanmar by either Tri-Star or RDPS (the "Antimony Projects"). RDPS is a subsidiary of Resource Development Partners Limited ("RDP"), the London based mining finance house specializing in natural resource investments.

The first stage of the Collaboration Agreement will involve Tri-Star providing technical expertise to RDPS and performing a series of geological and metallurgical assessments at the Antimony Projects. Following the completion of the initial assessment work, the board of directors of Tri-Star (the "Board") will make a decision regarding any further collaboration with RDPS. The Board expects this initial work to be completed within 6 to 12 months and subject to the results of the assessments the Board will consider further investment in the Antimony Projects and seek to negotiate an exclusive off-take arrangement with RDPS.

RDPS is a private holding company incorporated in Singapore, which invests in the Myanmar mining industry, in addition to other sectors. The principals, James Hyndes and Christian West, have regional investment and mining experience, and are supported by a strong board with members based both in South East Asia and Myanmar. RDPS has identified two operating antimony mines in Myanmar and will focus on expanding the surrounding prospective areas over which it owns the exploration rights. RDPS is engaged in seeking other projects of merit and its strategy is to develop strong local relationships in key commodity sectors.

Commenting on the Collaboration Agreement, Emin Eyi, Managing Director of Tri-Star Resources, said:

"The experience RDPS has, together with the strength of its relationships locally, means the company is very well positioned to develop opportunities in Myanmar and we look forward to utilising our geological and metallurgical skills in assisting them, and in turn the Myanmar resource industry, to improve standards and enhance exploration and production potential. Importantly, we are encouraged by the possible sourcing of raw materials which can potentially be processed at Tri-Star's proposed UAE roaster facilities in the future."

Myanmar opportunity

Myanmar has a very rich mineral record but is relatively underexplored. The geology of the region has the potential to host world class metal deposits. Located between the Cathy (Asian) and Indian plates the large continental sutures and faults such as the Shan Boundary Fault control a large number of mineral formations. Metal deposits in Myanmar include antimony, tin, lead, zinc, copper, precious metals and industrial minerals. There are over 30 known antimony occurrences recorded in the Country. Many of the antimony deposits are associated with tungsten and gold.

Myanmar is estimated to have produced over 14,000 tonnes of antimony in ore form in 2011, sold almost entirely overseas. It is one of the largest single country sources of antimony raw material for Chinese facilities.

Leni Gas & Oil



Leni Gas and Oil Plc (LGO) is an oil and gas production company that delivers growth through the selective acquisition of underdeveloped reserves and their enhancement. The Company identifies projects which can be enhanced through the application of commercial and technical expertise.

LGO invests in a relatively small number of assets, generally with a high working interest and operatorship, where it can apply its resources most effectively.
Since incorporation in 2006, LGO has invested in production in Trinidad, Gulf of Mexico and Spain. The Company has invested in areas with proven production and where there is significant further opportunity for development. Recently LGO has divested its minority interests in the USA to focus on its growing oil production interests onshore in Trinidad.

In 2011 LGO spent over €3 million on work to establish a higher production rate in Spain. Though production was significantly increased, the cost per barrel was seen to be prohibitive since access to capital was limited. LGO then embarked on a turnaround aimed at moving the business focus from high cost operations in Spain to lower cost operations onshore in Trinidad.

This process was started in late October 2011 and progress has been steadily achieved, but at a cost to shareholder confidence and resulting in a share price fall. The presentation will report on the process, on the issues encountered, the achievements to date and the way ahead. Significant sources of future value will be demonstrated.

Speaker: Neil Ritson, Chief Executive Officer
