LONDON (AFX) - Chaco Resources PLC said it is proposing the reverse takeover
of two Paraguayan companies -- Amerisur SA and Bohemia SA -- from Candey SA and
Daniel Sztern in exchange for 27,322,404 new ordinary shares in the company.
It also plans to raise up to 750,000 stg before expenses in a placing of
36,585,365 new ordinary shares.
The company's shares were suspended on Sept 3 and it said it expects this to
be lifted today. It has called an EGM for Nov 15 to approve the acquisition and
placing plans.
Amerisur holds two oil and gas prospecting permits in Paraguay and is the
registered applicant for exploration and exploitation concession contracts over
the same permit areas. Bohemia holds registered applications for an oil and gas
prospecting permit in Paraguay and for an exploration and exploitation
concession contract over the same area.
The exploration areas covered by these three applications comprise a total of
approximately 48,000 square kilometres of the Curypayty and Parana Basins.
Chaco said these basins extend respectively into Bolivia and Brazil, where
commercial oil and gas production has been established for many years from
similar geological sections.

Bodeng - I did not think so - nothing new - and certainly no recommendations - see above

tug.i hope you are now in this is a good one.

Anyone know why so many large trades today at around 6.9p?

WDBM apparently bought nearly 2m shares for institutional clients and a further 350000 @ 7.1p for another client. They are probably as puzzled as us as to why CHP doesn't get rated more highly even at this stage. In my view that is only a temporary state of affairs.

Well that in itself is good news - lets hope it is like a volcano - just smouldering and waiting to erupt

Thanks Sharesure-gives some confidence to the rest of us!

CDS oil and gas is up 10% this morning!

By my calculation CDS is within 5 days of reaching its target depth unless its progress has been more rapid. Any oil strike there will be good for CHP. CHP's licence area in Chaco basin is also twice the acreage of that of CDS.

been reading this thread, looks exciting then research the share price and nothing is happening.

Kivver - this stock is so underpinned by assets that any exploration is in for nothing. The market just hasn't woken up to that fact .... yet. It will.

a very small tick up - nevertheless - its in the right direction

.........and now some chunky buys going through

Thats because i have just bought 50,000

Another tick up would be nice today!

Weird trading, some big buys and big sells. What does that mean???

Kivver
Most of the trades that look like sells I believe are buys!

Rise should be much bigger if it was. look at how VEG has gone up on tiny trades.

Suspect some of the better turnover might be because of the strength in the sp of CDS where Chaco Basin drilling result in Paraguay is due very soon. CDS rose today from 7p to 8.75p with one late buy at 10p so there seems to be confidence that they will strike oil. If so, Chaco has a nearby licence area twice as big in acreage as that of CDS so they will have had some of their speculative drilling done for nothing. Should make it easier and less onerous in terms for CHP to tie up a partnership/farm in deal with one of the majors (like Petrobas?)

Were most of the trades buys today-hard to tell from the prices?
