I am interested to hear what has to be said for/against Zambezi Nickel. Very new company to the market... Nickle is used to make stainless steel, think this could push up price. This link will give you an idear of nickle prices at the mo http://www.kitcometals.com/charts/nickel_historical_large.html#lmestocks_6months
Sorry no charts need to work out how to do that! New to the market, but it has two great mineral deposites (according to Investors Chronical)...
Mitaba Prospect:
The Mitaba Project occupies a total strike length of 11 kilometres, within which occur two main complexes of successive ultramafic (komatiite) lava flows, 3.3 kilometres apart.
Paulwi Prospect:
The pear-shaped Paulwi intrusion has been gravity-differentiated into a gabbroic upper portion of 3,000 metres depth and basal serpentinised dunite portion of 2,000 metres depth... [goes on to say] comparable to the deposit being mined at the 11 million ton per annum operation at Mt Keith, Western Australia.

Spread has widened to 11p - 14p. Even wider! Now it will be difficult to trade... mind you the selling price is still the same. also 3 trades recently, 1 sell 2 unknow.... Why are they unknow?

Hi Tonker,

if you go to trades,change date to yesterday and change sort by to time first then read the disclaimer at bottom of trades....it says there basically guesses. Unkowns are when they dont fall into any of there guess criteria.

Steve

ps shows how bored ive been lately when ive been reading disclaimers!

Have a look at ZRL which has 49% of ZNI. Thus you get ZRL's gold copper and uranium interests with a stake in ZNI too

muppetmaster, if ZRL have 49% of ZNI.... does it not mean that ZRA will benfit from the nickle deposites of ZNI, and not the other way around. correct me if i am wronge, I'm not too sure

Over the last 60 days:
LME warehouse stock levels has fallen to 34254 (-1788)thousand tonnes -5.20%
Price has increased to 6.7680 (+0.6029)$US/lb +8.91%

tonker - yes that is what I meant

Does anyone know what all this means...

2006 Nickel Exploration Drill Season in Zambia



Diamond drill programme contract signed - commencement April 2006

15 high priority targets defined from 2005 helimag results

New prospect identified

Target JORC nickel resource - Q4 2006

Zambezi Nickel Limited ('Zambezi' or the 'Company') (AIM Code: ZNI), the
AIM-quoted African nickel exploration and development company, today announces
that a definitive contract has been signed with Capital Drilling Pty Limited for
the forthcoming diamond-drilling programme at its Mitaba Project in Zambia. The
entire programme is expected to be carried out between April and August 2006.

Helimag results

15 high priority target features were defined following the results of the
high-resolution helicopter-borne magnetometry (helimag) survey flown during
2005. The target features for disseminated nickel sulphides are located on the
two main meta-komatiite lava-flow complexes at the Mitaba Project. The most
intense helimag results define the main lava channels where disseminated
sulphides can occur.

The high priority targets have been selected on the basis that they all satisfy
the following criteria:

Target area has suitable dimensions for possible open pit mining should
economic mineralisation be found

Wide intervals of sampling results that exceed 0.5% nickel in trenches

Confirmation by mapping that the appropriate nickel bearing host-rock type
coincides with the magnetically-indicated targets

The identification by microscopic mineralogy of pentlandite (the main nickel
sulphide mineral) in two specimens of host rock is another positive indication.

The helimag has also revealed a new prospect towards the eastern end of the
Mitaba Hill Complex, which is now referred to as Mitaba Hill East.

Zambezi has committed to a substantial diamond-core drilling programme that is
designed to test eight targets at the Mitaba Hill and Mitaba Hill East
Prospects, and seven at the Mitaba West Prospect. Each of the targets will be
tested initially by one hole, with succeeding holes being contingent upon
positive results. This increases the programme to 28 holes for a total of 4,540
metres, of which 2,540 metres will be required for first-priority holes. The
spacing of the drilling traverses is designed to permit the estimation of
JORC-compliant, inferred-category resources from positive results. Besides
fulfilling the main sampling objective, the drill cores will also provide
metallurgical information regarding processing and recovery characteristics of
any significant mineralisation.

Results have been received from the helicopter-borne time-domain electromagnetic
(VTEM) survey of the Mitaba and Paulwi Project areas, carried out by the
Canadian contractors, Geotech Limited, during 2005. This was designed to detect
conductive massive sulphide bodies, for which there was some theoretical
justification. No late-time responses, which could be generated by such bodies,
were encountered at either of the project areas. However, the theoretical
expectation that a zone of fine, disseminated sulphides could occur at the base
of the gabbroic portion of the Paulwi intrusion still requires mapping and
detailed sampling traverses for platinum group elements.

Commenting on the announcement, Paul Rankine, CEO of Zambezi said, 'Now that we
have processed all the data from last year's field season, we believe Zambezi is
in an excellent position to move forward and drill test the disseminated nickel
sulphide targets at Mitaba. We also believe that there is the potential to
generate a JORC compliant nickel resource on this property by the fourth quarter
in 2006. Shareholders should note that the company is also actively examining
opportunities for possible acquisitions of nickel prospects both in Zambia and
other SADC countries.'

Price has increased to 8.6970 (+1.9346)$US/lb +22.24%

Some good news, has helped lift the share price

Had a good run recently, this could be due to the rising nickel prices, and drilling update

Over the last 60 days:
LME warehouse stock levels has fallen to 18948 (-6912)thousand tonnes -41.52%
Price has increased to 9.2984 (+2.5776)$US/lb +27.72%...
things are looking good for nickle at the mo... sp up again!

Well this stock looks to be coming good, any thoughts?

Any more news on ZNI yet ? The sp holding

Not much news out, hopefully some more news will come though soon... the price of nickle has backed off recently as well, but still historically high

Another U play

someone biting...up 30% so far today....

ONLY up 65% so far....TODAY !!
