Range and Red Emperor lower despite "monumental" spudding

broker Panmure Gordon said the longer-term exploration upside of Range’s portfolio is illustrated by the un-risked NAV of 92p/share attributed to its interests in the Herrera Formation in Caribbean and the wider Georgian and Puntland acreage.

Tuesday, January 17, 2012
We have been highlighting Range Resources and Red Emperor Resources over the last few trading sessions, as traders rallied both stocks aggressively ahead of the spudding of Puntland in Somalia. Both stocks have enjoyed a near 100% rally over the last few months ahead of this anticipated news, and today the news investors have been eagerly awaiting hit the wires. The announcement highlighted the Spudding of the Shabeel-1 well, the first of two planned landmark exploration wells, in the Dharoor Valley, Puntland, Somalia, The first oil exploration well to be drilled in over 20 years in Puntland targeting Prospective Resources of over 300 million barrels of oil (mean 100% basis) Initial operations also commenced on the Shabeel North-1 well (second exploration well) Drilling is expected to take approximately 90 days. Both stocks retraced approximately 15% in trading, as investors took the news as a chance to take profits from a fantastic run. Even after this short spell of profit taking, both stocks are still up approximately 65% from the lows seen in mid-December.

wonder how the asx will end?

Before opening tonight, on the ASX they are sitting at 0.190 = 13 pence

Without news could be a large fall, like us

With news , a rise and we play catch up in the morning.

RRL's home page still shows the 17th Jan end of trade price at 0.190, no change.
I thought the suspension of trade had been lifted, oh well.

indeed - i guess it was the fund raising announcement at 10.75 that did most damage yesterday then - it will recover gl

Hotting up again added some more this morning. Accumulating them as brokers say.

In auction.

good stuff gf - me too - buy on any weakness - what a day :-))

I thought that gibby about the fund raising annoucement, could of been a blue day without that. Had a look 18% odd down in Oz last night.

it probably was dc - good to see the recovery from the lows here - thought that was a tad over done

Caught a lot of traders out. I thought we would rise on waiting for the last rns.

News of a deeply discounted share placing dragged Range Resources down 2.5p to 10.75p. The company placed 18.3m shares at 11.5p. Drilling has started on the first well in its oil exploration project in the Dharoor Valley in Somalia. Apparently it is the first drilling in the country for 20 years. Broker Fox Davies Capital’s target price is 27p.
