Its moe or less time we heard something about the Copper Study, but just to help you see how much it could be worth, heres a report on copper prices and inventories..........................
Copper and Nickel....
Thursday September 30, 2004
The Guardian
Oil has been hogging the limelight, breaking through the $50 level this week, but it would be wrong to ignore all the other commodity markets that are going gangbusters.
Copper yesterday hit a six-month high of $2,970 per tonne - more than double the price seen in the dark days of 2001, after the tech bubble burst.
Other base metals have also shot up in price over the past 24 months, with nickel rising from $5,000 per tonne to $14,000. Tin has moved from $3,800 to $9,000 and even lead - for so long an unfashionable commodity - has more than doubled to $900 per tonne.
As with the upward pressure on crude prices, voracious demand from China has been the driving force behind the rises across the commodity range.
Persistently depressed commodity prices during the 90s meant there was little investment during the decade in new mines and facilities: the result is a classic squeeze from limited supply and pulsating demand.
In the first four months of the year demand for copper rose by nearly 30% in China, 15% in America, and was also up in Europe and Japan. While the market cooled a little during the summer, demand is said to have picked up once more over recent weeks.
As usual, speculators are being blamed for the more extreme price moves, but the fact is the underlying physical market remains very tight.
While 800,000 tonnes of copper lay in warehouses attached to the London Metal Exchange, Comex bourse and Shanghai Futures Exchange at the end of 2003, those reserves have now fallen to 164,000 tonnes. Kate Barker, monetary policy committee member at the Bank of England, warned yesterday that higher commodity prices were feeding inflation. That is not news to UK companies.
Those supplying the construction industry, car manufacturers and consumer durable makers all rely on copper wiring, cabling and tubing for a range of electrical and other applications. They are already struggling with rising energy costs - at a time when fierce competition makes it impossible to pass on extra costs to customers.
And where's that competition coming from? China, more often than not.
cheers GF.

have a mate in the city that doesn't rate these, feels there's something not quite right, and they don't trust Atlas at all!!!
quite right to put the buyer beware posts up, Phillipines is a hell of a risky place to do business!!!!
good luck all, you may need it!!!

There's always be profit taking Aldwickk. Most important aspect, IMHO, is will there be sufficient news / interest until possible production next year to keep the SP ticking along? Without steady news flow, the SP will drift and be the main reason for a possible decline rather than profit taking.

ptholden,
I believe there may still be many in from the original float, and if the price increases much more, they may well seek an exit point. It will be interesting to see what happens.
I have first hand knowledge that the Philippines is not a strightforward place to do business, which may explain some of the delays to the original timeframe.

I do agree with your assessment, but if the stock continues to rise as is currently the case, (up a further 9% today), I would hazard a guess that the profit takers may well stick it out for a bit longer. Judging by the buys going through at the moment, no-one is selling just yet and if they do I imagine they will be mopped up fairly quickly. Hopefully when the heat goes out of the stock TMC may be placed to announce further progress, an update which I understand to be released fairly soon. In any event, I think I will hang onto these for a while. I sold some a while ago, which netted a small loss, so my adjusted break even figure is just about round the corner.
Regards

ptholden,
We will see, but good luck to you, there is certainly a good deal of potential in this share, but with higher potential goes higher risk!

Whats that then 27% in two days, not bad. Im sticking with them no matter what happens to price short term.
Dont think Cambria would have taken a stake before checking out a few things.
Mines are always top risk.
cheers GF.

Perhaps this is being rather simplistic. I accept Mine Exploration is high risk, but in this case the stuff is known to be there, so surely it is just a matter of producing profitably?
