Exploration update 3rd August 2006 - Red Rock Resources PLC said a significant new iron discovery has been made at its Central Yilgarn Iron Project in Australia. Jupiter is targeting extra iron ore tonnage of over 20 mln tonnes from the discovery. Production from the Central Yilgarn Iron Project is planned to be crushed on site, trucked to Menzies, 90 kilometres away, and then railed to the Port of Esperance

Exploration Update 9th August 2006 - Manganese Resource defined at Mkushi, Zambia gives an indicated tonnage of 2,365,000 million tonnes of manganese ore


Red River (RVR), which is a stock we rarely hear from, performed a similar trick, announcing the recovery of high-grade iron ore samples from a project in the Pilbara region of WA, and receiving a share price boost of A3 cents (20 per cent) to close the week at A18 cents. (courtesy of Minesite)

Red Rock Resources plc said it has signed a
deal with Zambian firm Chiman Manufacturing Ltd for the processing of manganese
to produce ferromanganese.
The mineral exploration and development company said Chiman will provide
crushing, preparation, and processing of ore supplied by Red Rock's Zambian unit
from stockpiles and surface material at its Chiwefwe mining license.
The company added it expects to make first deliveries shortly.

Harrycat,

EK has been short since 12p.

Doubt he will still have the short in place with production figures from columbia about to come out this month, unless of course he likes throwing his money away!

Good post from the other side.

Today, Jupiter Mines (ASX:JMS) announced a maiden inferred resource at Mt Ida (RRR own 5.3% of Jupiter and 1.5% Gross production royalty on ore produced at Mt Ida)

The expectation had been for 400 million tonnes of iron at this level but the tests have shown 530 million tonnes, at a grade of 32% Fe. Iron ore is currently priced at around $180 per tonne of 62% iron ore. Jupiter have 530 million tonnes at 32% so after refining will be able to have a little over 265 million tonnes at 62%. Which is worth $47,700 million or 31,800 million.

Yes it will cost money to mine it and refine it, but Red Rocks GROSS royalty is on the sale price, so Red Rocks royalty alone is worth 1.5% of 31.8 billion = 477 million.

Red Rocks market cap is still only circa 100 million. So whilst it will still probably be a year or more until Jupiter start producing and selling the iron, and whilst the production royalty will come in dribs and drabs as Jupiter gradually mine and sell the ore, this maiden inferred resource massively underpins Red Rocks current share price.

Bearing in mind that they also own roughly 45 million of shares in Jupiter, around 7 million in RGM, around 6 million in Ascot (plus options to buy 7.5 million more shares at 20p, with Ascot currently priced at 47.5p equaling an inferred current value of 27.5p x 7.5 million shares ie 2 million), Migori, El Limon, Kansai and more, current market cap of under 100 million looks exceedingly cheap. And with the confirmed maiden resource at Mt Ida I struggle to see any real downside from here (100 million market cap for RRR underpinned by 477 million production royalty at Mt Ida) and yet astronomical upside potential. Even if Red Rocks only assets were the shares in Jupiter and the production royalty, it would still look good value to me at current prices.

Correction to the above. RRR owned 3.35% of RGM 17,900,000 shares. Not 7m

good succint posts driver - you have posted some of the main reasons i am in long rrr and happy to wait - once gkp was my biggest holding - now i have exited gkp - but still keep an eye on them of course - rrr is now my biggest single holding - only slightly annoying thing is every point on a dip notices! but equally on the rise kerrrchinnnnnggg! have a good evening

About time we had news on Colombia?

yea!

Been fairly lacklustre recently, despite all the positives.

The market is waiting for news on Colombia now.

Back where we started after a dippy day.

yrp sure are - we just need some news and it shouldnt be that far away - ab likes to keep a steady stream of news and often when you least expect - i wouldnt wanna be outta rrr right now!! lol

There is so much going on with RRR punters cant take it all in, the company can only go one way as I see it and that is to a 500+m M/Cap 70p 80p sp and more to come in the years after. The M/Cap also affects the sp of RGM who have 23% of RRR. RGMs sp is being held down by DNi selling, this is a great opportunity to pick up these shares at bargain basement prices IMO.

Dear shareholders and colleagues,



You may have seen a couple of announcements this morning.



One, a general update, http://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-detail.html?announcementId=10773973 , which has a little detail on Tasmania, but otherwise just reports steady progress.



Tasmania may have the potential to be a significant iron ore discovery. We shall know in a few days. At any rate, if it is not, then there is or should be no downside. Only upside. Most shareholders until a month ago were hardly if at all aware of this prospects existence in our portfolio. Full credit to Helen Salmon, our geologist looking after Tasmania, and our invaluable geophysics adviser (and director of a local associated company) Grant Donnes for persevering and coming up by some lateral thinking with the reinterpretation that led to this discovery.



We put out an update without much news so that nobody got too worried things were going wrong. The markets are nervous, and our shareholders, or some of them, understandably share that feeling.



But our people on the ground, who are based in England or elsewhere overseas, and are on assignment for the exploration, tend to like to get back to their families over Christmas and the New Year, and perhaps to take a short holiday. It is a sensible time to do this, as everyone else local staff, drillers, even the staff of the sampling laboratories is taking time off. Then each team meets or has discussions here in January to review progress before moving back on site.



Then when they get back, there are still some of the people they work with who are not back until late in the second or into the third week of January. So the news flow slows for a while.



In Colombia, my colleague is out there for 3 weeks, and is currently on site. Communications are not perfect in terms of bandwidth, and we will get a fuller briefing next week. But, as indicated in the announcement, there is progress, and objectives are unchanged. And we are working already on fresh initiatives to drive progress faster.



The other announcement is on Resource Star Ltd, our Australian associate. Here the news is clearly good. The ground is the southern part of a trend which goes up through a license held by Paladin, who are starting exploration. They are good neighbours, who carried out our down-hole probing for us, and we are sharing our data. Of course we want to encourage them to take an interest in our area.

The news on Jupiter Mines Ltds JORC Resource at Mt Ida came out as expected, and was better than expected. This of course is good news for us, because besides our Jupiter holding we have a royalty. Jupiter will continue to produce news flow, and we expect to see a push on Mt Ida in coming months.



It occurred to us that it would be helpful to have one of our shareholder dial-ins. We propose SATURDAY at 10 a.m.

Cheers m2 was just about to post that.

ditto that dudes!!

Snippets from the other side on the conference call this morning. Onward and upwards on Monday by the looks of it.



Jupiter fund raising to complete by Monday.

Tasmania discovery possibly half the size of Savage River

Increase in admin etc to support increase to 500 mil ocompany,


Divi would show to shareholders that RRR is a good place to invest. I think the share price has already done that.


Regular dividends:

"We want to send the message that we are a company that is very focussed on providing profits every year."

Wants to widen the appeal of the company to a different group of investors, more 'traditional' investors who are attracted to Dividends. Also wants RRR to appear to be functioning like a 'large company'.

Royalty listing. My understanding is they list the royalty as a separate company and own 95% of it. The listing will then give the royalty a value which can reflect a value in the RRR sp - as currently very hard to value this.

good stuff - i remember ab saying he would be disappointed if rrr did not end the year a 500M co.

I read on another BB that jms suspension was nothing to do with fundraising according to AB yesterday! Can someone confirm that either way.

Jupiter's announcement on 25 January was pretty clear as far as I'm concerned:-

Pursuant to listing Rule 17.1, Jupiter Mines Limited ('The Company') requests an immediate halt in the trading of the Company's securities pending the release of an announcement regarding a capital raising.

The Company requests that the trading halt end on the earlier of the commencement of normal trading on Monday, 31st January 2011, or when the anticipated announcement referred to above is released to the market.

The Company is not aware of any reason why the trading halt should not be granted.
