Braemore Resources Uses Cutting Edge Technology (BRR)     

notlob - 25 Apr 2008 14:44 - 599 of 810

noc, its not BRR's own furnace, but one that is leased from Mintek
from the recent results statement:

'Braemore commenced PGM production in October having secured a lease over a 3MW
DC arc furnace at Mintek to establish a demonstration facility for the ConRoast
technology process ("ConRoast Process"). Production to date has run smoothly
demonstrating both the economics and environmental credentials of the ConRoast
Process.'

Not that it really matters because the point is to demonstrate the technology, which they have done.

Not looking to knock the company, noc, as I think it looks a very interesting proposition.

But I would be happier to invest once some details of funding are out in the open.
If the PGM producers are going to put up the cash for the smelter, fine. Lets see the colour of their money. And as there is no such thing as a free lunch, what will they want in return, presumably reduced smelter prices or a share in the project. Nothing at all wrong with that. Point I'm making is the way ahead with these projects is not yet clear and I would prefer claritybefore investing.

You have done a fine job with the header info, btw.

Notlob if the pilot project is as good as we are led to believe furnace funding should not be a problem in South Africa. The position in Australia with BHP/BLT requires clarification by the directors.

sounds good, Halifax, but the money still has to come from somewhere and deal(s) have to be done.
Given the future demand for smelters than can handle high chrome content platinum ore , I think a deal will be done. Its a question of when and on what terms.

N/Lob, yes you are correct regarding the furnace.I was on my way out, so posted in a hurry and it was off the top of my head.

What a nice surprise, just got back from the beach, after a fish and chip lunch and a pint or two of best bitter. Only another 14p and I can afford to go back and pay for them.

HARRYCAT - 29 May 2008 15:04 - 613 of 810

Fish & Chips on credit!!! Best not to sober up! :o)

MM's trying to keep the lid on this one. If BRR can generate $10million from a small pilot project how much will will they earn from a joint venture with BLT?

cynic - 29 May 2008 16:16 - 616 of 810

don't confuse profit with turnover!

halifax - 29 May 2008 16:21 - 617 of 810

cynic your usual caustic remark has merit. Let us wait and see if an agreement is signed with BLT as they dont usually look to make a loss!

Nasty, after hours discounted fund raising, thank you proactive investors.
