From the latest company's drilling update....17 Feb

http://moneyam.uk-wire.com/cgi-bin/articles/200402170700084897V.html

Can anyone with mining knowledge explain these terms....

What does sidetracking mean? Approx how ong will that take?
Approx. how long will it take to correct a deviated section?
Is 'crude oil in shale samples' a good indication that there is oil?
Is 'Gas-bearing porous sands being logged' a good indication that there is gas?
Basically what does logging involve ?

Any views re AEX potential??

Stephen

I was hoping that the lack of current news from DRPK would get some people to profit take.
Purely selfish reasons as I want to get in ;o)
Come on chaps - there must be one or two of you out there who are sitting on fat profits that really ought to be crystallised.
Still waiting and hoping .........

Ianayel, yes fat profits but the fun times are ahead. This is still a good price to get in - may not be coming much further back before a break of 30p. Don't leave it too late!

Ianayel,
I would tend to agree with Greyhound.
Despite there being a lack of news on the North Korea front (probably until talks resume in mid January I think) there is a potential spanner in the works for your hope of getting the shares cheaper than they currently are.................
the newspapers will begin to give their tips for 2006 beginning next week - if I recall correctly the Daily Telegraph is usually first off the mark in the week between Xmas and New Year whilst, this year, the vast majority of the Sunday papers will no doubt be tipping in their 1st January issue.

I am pretty confident that at least one newspaper will mention Aminex as one of their shares of the year for 2006. That will be enough to get it marked up above 30p for starters !!!

So you might just want to reconsider the chances of Aminex drifting much below the current SP.

;o)

Greyhound and supermono13,
Thanks for the advice. I must confess that I had not thought about the new year tips in the papers.
Anyway I took the plunge at 26.55p.
Hopefully we'll all be looking back this time next year at a marvellous investment.

Merry Xmas and a very prosperous New Year.

Shares of the year for 2006
http://www.smallcaptrader.org/mydiary.html

Ok, its not a daily but still I expect it to be mention in one of the daily newspapers for their share of the year tip for 2006.

2006 is going to be very interesting for AEX.

Merry Xmas and a very Happy & prosperous New Year to you all.

AEX on the move today, no news, any comments?

Wow !!!!

There were some talks between China and North Korea over Christmas regarding drilling for oil.

It has been heavily discussed on other BB's and, from what I can see, it looks very promising for Aminex.

Can't get over the fact that I actually got my timing right buying this (makes a very pleasant change).

;0)

N.Korea, China Strike Oil Development Deal

North Korea agreed with China over the weekend to jointly exploit offshore oilfields. The deal was signed after a meeting in Beijing and puts maritime disputes between the two countries to rest. Energy experts in China say the deal comes as no surprise as the two countries have already signed a series of deals for Chinese-funded projects.

Also Aminex is heavily discussed on the TMF board.

Thanks for the link Kaysmart. I think its excellent news. I also had a look at the Motley fool thread on AEX and saw some very interesting comments about Aminex, no wonder everyone is very bullish about Aminex on the TMF board. I think this explains why there has been considerable buying today hardly any weakness in the SP. This is a very bullish sign. I managed to top up at 28.95 and took out the last mm at 29p. The news about the latest deal between China and North Korea has not filtered through yet. I expect with some newspaper comments about the china/north Korea deal to lift up the SP to 35p. Further more any comments about AEX by any of the newspapers on their Shares of the year for 2006 will see SP above 40p.

TMF board ,is it same as advfn,what is link.

The last time I wrote here was in August and said that a friend of my husband who works in the city recommended that we buy some shares in this company, according to him it was going to double in few weeks. On his recommendation we bought some and it did what he stated. Infect it has more than tripled since than. He visited us during Christmas day and told us to buy some more and not to sell them what ever happens to the share price. He mention about some deals being made in Korea and further news will be coming out soon. We increased our holdings yesterday. I can see why our friend told us to buy as soon as the market opened on Wednesday; there has been heavy buying since yesterday. He expect the shares to go up 40/45p short term

I too have held since early August and now we're breaking 30p, think we'll see a rapid move to 35/40p. I have considered taking another tranche but am already heavily overweight. As mentioned by kaysmart before Xmas it already has a mention on smallcaptrader, target 1. Which paper is going to pick this one up in the next 7 days???

Wow !!! (seems to be the only word I can start my messages with at present).

Great to see the share price breaking through the 30p barrier today.

I believe most of the Sunday newspapers will have their 2006 tips in the 1st January issue.

So I'm now contemplating whether to pick up some more shares today or tomorrow morning as any tip at the weekend will result in a ridiculous mark up when business resumes on Tuesday morning.

Absolutely Ianayel - there could be a lot of reading to plough through on 1st Jan with a hangover! But it will keep the mind occupied. I'm considering putting more away under the ISA if this 30p holds, however it goes against my investment strategy to be so overexposed.

Hi Greyhound, Just to add you are not alone in being overexposed. I am heavily overweight too. My target is to hold at least 500,000 in my portfolio; I have not reached that yet. I have been regularly buying every time it dips. But yesterday I had to go against my strategy and bought two lots as it was going up. With the tips for 2006 shares of the year coming out next week and heavy buying this week I am quite confident it will be picked up by tipsters as share of the year for 2006.

I couldn't wait any longer.............
just bought a few more at 30.5p

Good luck to all.

Happy New Year

A fantastic article was posted this evening on a couple of other BB's:

http://ogj.pennnet.com/articles/article_display.cfm?Section=ARCHI&C=Depa&ARTICLE_ID=241784&KEYWORDS=aminex

It gives a very thorough picture of the background work Aminex have done with the North Koreans over the last few years and, indeed, why the Koreans are happy dealing with Aminex rather than a larger, or better known, company.

It gives a wonderful idea of the fantastic potential for Aminex.

Have we been tipped for 2006 then?

Havnt read anything yet.
