Sydney Gas Granted Third Production Lease

Sydney Gas Ltd advises that the NSW Minister for Mineral Resources, the Hon Kerry Hickey MP, has granted NSW’s fourth Petroleum Production Lease (“PPL”) under the Petroleum (Onshore) Act to Sydney Gas. Sydney Gas now holds three production leases: PPLs 1, 2 and 4.

PPL 4 covers an area of 55 km2 and has a 21 year term. The granting of PPL 4 confirms that Sydney Gas has met all necessary Government conditions relating to those production wells covered by the Development Consent granted on 16 June 2004 in respect to Stage II of the Camden Gas Project, located 50 km south-west of Sydney.

Sydney Gas’ Chief Executive Officer, Dr Bruce Butcher, said that, “This is the next important step being taken by Sydney Gas towards becoming a major gas producer. With Development Consent and PPL 4 now in hand, and with construction of the Rosalind Park Gas Plant (“RPGP”) at Campbelltown nearing completion, Sydney Gas will soon commence commissioning the first major gas plant in NSW.”

Dr Butcher said that, “Whilst our immediate focus is upon commissioning the RPGP, we are keen to expand Sydney Gas’ drilling activities and accelerate development of each of our three projects: the Camden, Hunter and Wyong Gas Projects.”

“With the granting of PPL 4, the RPGP is one step closer to start-up and Sydney Gas is now within reach of becoming a major gas producer in NSW”, said Dr Butcher. - Web Site

Ellis-1 Well - Oklahoma
Main Points
The fracture stimulation crew is due to arrive on location in the next few days. In the meantime, the lower-most potential gas bearing zone in the Chester Limestone is being perforated and treated with acid in an attempt to stimulate a gas flow. Gas pay has been interpreted from log analysis, however the formation is fairly low permeability. This is not a main or secondary objective in this well, but has been producting in the general region and can respond favourably to an acid treatment.

Spudding of Ellis-2 Well - Oklahoma
Main Points
Ellis-2 is drilling ahead at a depth of 3,355 feet (1,026 metres) after setting and cementing 95/8" casing at a depth of 3,118 feet.
The objective of Ellis-2 is to evaluate the lower Morrow B, Morrow C, D, E and Itoka sands that are interpreted to be gas bearing in Ellis-1. This well will be drilled to a similar total depth of approximately 11,500 feet.

CARNARVON PETROLEUM

First Quarter Activities & Cashflow Report

During the September 2004 quarter the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Strategic Exploration (Asia) Limited (“SEAL”), commenced legal proceedings in Alberta, Canada seeking orders directing Pacific Tiger (Energy) Thailand Limited and Pacific Tiger Energy Inc. (collectively “Pacific Tiger”) to comply with the provisions of the Joint Operating Agreement and Farmin Agreement. These two agreements govern relations between the partners in the Wichian Buri SW1A Concession joint venture in Thailand.

Carnarvon’s concern about the extent of funding of the joint venture by Pacific Tiger caused it to commence these proceedings. Amongst other matters, Carnarvon alleges that:

Pacific Tiger has not fully funded its share of joint venture expenditures;
Pacific Tiger has not remitted to Carnarvon its share of joint venture revenues; and
Pacific Tiger has not provided recent financial and operational information concerning the joint venture, including the final report from Navigator Resource Management Inc. on its review of the Wichian Buri oilfield.

The court has set a date of 24 November 2004 for a hearing of Carnarvon’s legal action. SEAL has also taken separate legal action against Pacific Tiger Energy, Inc. pursuant to a guarantee in the Farmin Agreement for payment of cash receipts owed to SEAL.

The Company has prepared this quarterly report on activities, and accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows, based on available actual financial and operational information and reasonable estimates. SW1A Concession joint venture financial and operational information for the complete quarter ended 30 September 2004 has not been provided by Pacific Tiger.

The Company believes that the reported quarterly financial results, incorporating estimates, is not materially different from actual results.

CASH RESOURCES
Carnarvon has ended the quarter with a strong working capital position. The liquid assets available to the Company, adjusted as at 30 September 2004, is $944,000,- Web Site

Taskforce teams announced

Keith Johnson has announced the first of the names of team members selected to assist the Improving Performance Together (IPT) taskforce team leaders.

The selection of the teams represents the final piece of the management structure put in place to identify leading practices over the next six months and apply these to our mining, processing, asset management and marketing activities. The team leaders have been in place in London since September, a steering committee for the programme has been formed, and each taskforce has its own steering committee drawn from the leaders of Group businesses. Today's announcement names the individuals who will form three of the taskforce teams to work with the team leaders. The marketing team will be announced next week and one or two more names may be added to the other teams in due course.

The roles are effective from 1 November 2004 for a minimum of six months. They will remain in their current location and work as a virtual team. A second group of team members will be appointed after six months to manage the implementation of best practice recommendations. These will include the pilot projects and feasibility studies identified during the initial benchmarking period. - Web Site

Conditional Proposal from Xstrata to Acquire WMC

WMC advises that it recently received a conditional proposal from Xstrata to acquire WMC for $6.35 per share in cash by way of a scheme of arrangement.

The Board of WMC carefully considered the proposal and determined that it fails to recognize the current and prospective value of WMC's assets and the strategic benefits to Xstrata or other potential acquirers. Accordingly the Board declined the proposal to put forward a scheme of arrangement to WMC shareholders.

WMC informed Xstrata that it was willing to have further discussions and that any material improvement in Xstrata's proposal would be given due consideration in the context of alternatives available to WMC to maximize shareholder value.

Xstrata's proposal was initially expressed to be indicative, non-binding and conditional. This morning Xstrata advised WMC that its proposal was no longer indicative and non-binding. However, it is still subject to conditions including funding. Shareholders are advised that it is uncertain as to whether the approach will lead to any proposal being put to WMC's shareholders.

WMC will continue to keep its shareholders fully informed and a further announcement will be made in the event of any material developments.

----------------------

Outlines Nickel Growth Strategy

The introduction of alternate processing technology and a regional program of project development and exploration are at the centre of WMC's nickel growth strategy outlined today.

In an address to the Australian-British Chamber of Commerce in Melbourne today, WMC CEO Andrew Michelmore outlined opportunities to increase nickel production by 25,000 tonnes per annum from 2008/09.

'The extra production will come from the development of a new processing route to treat current and future stockpiles of talc and low grade ores at Mt Keith', Mr Michelmore said. 'A new milling circuit will be combined with the application of Low Pressure Leach technology to treat over 110,000t of nickel already in stockpiles.'

Pilot plant trials for the new nickel leach circuit at Mt Keith are underway in the United States. Product from the leach circuit will be fed directly to expanded capacity at WMC's Kwinana nickel refinery or sold as a high value intermediate product.

The capital cost of the plant is forecast to be a low US$7- 8 per annual pound of nickel production. The testwork and associated engineering studies for the concentrator and leach circuit project will be completed in time for construction in 2006.

'The planned development of the Yakabindie deposit with integrated processing at nearby Mt Keith is set to replace current production from the Kambalda region by the end of this decade,' Mr Michelmore said. 'With the addition of the LPL circuit, we expect to cement our position as a major global producer for the long term.'

In addition to the processing and project development plan, WMC continues to actively explore for new nickel deposits to leverage its substantial Western Australian infrastructure.

'The Leinster to Mt Keith belt is one of the richest nickel sulphide belts in the world.' Mr Michelmore said. 'While we are working toward discovering the next great nickel province, we will also be using new technology to potentially uncover deeper deposits in this region. Development of new in-house electro-magnetic survey technology is allowing us to see deeper and clearer than previously thought possible.'

An analyst and investor site tour of WMC's nickel and copper operations finishes in Kalgoorlie today with a detailed overview of WMC's nickel strategy provided by Executive General Manager Nickel - Alan Dundas.- Web Site

Third Quarter Activities Report

Santos Limited today reported that production continued to improve in the latest September quarter, following the full recommissioning of the Moomba plant during the period and new production from Bayu-Undan.
Production has increased strongly with third quarter production up by 12%, and revenue up 26% compared with the second quarter to 30 June 2004.
Revenue rose by 9% when compared with the September 2003 quarter, while production declined by 11% as forecast. Production optimisation, acquisitions and new projects continued to slow the rate of decline.
Revenue for the latest quarter was Santos’ highest quarterly revenue since 2001.
The higher average oil price for the quarter more than offset the impact of lower sales volumes and resulted in the Company’s sales revenue increasing to $420.3 million compared with $386.4 million in the September 2003 quarter.
The average oil price for the quarter increased to A$57.36 per barrel – up 34% over the third quarter of 2003.

MACMIN SILVER

First Quarter Cashflow Report

SUMMARY & COMMENTS

Macmin Silver Ltd (Macmin) is a silver focused company whose primary project is the Texas Silver Project, S.E. Queensland, Australia. Macmin has exposure to gold by way of a 35% equity in New Guinea Gold Corporation (NGG) and a 1% NSR royalty on production by NGG. In addition, Macmin maintains equity investments in junior Australian explorers, Malachite Resources NL and TasGold Ltd.

The non renounceable rights issue to shareholders announced in early September successfully raised the $5.2M which was being sought. The funds raised will allow construction to commence at the Twin Hills Silver Mine, which will lead to the commissioning of a silver processing plant and related infrastructure.
Drilling at the Tuliambi Prospect, 5 kms north of the Twin Hills Mine encountered high grade copper/ silver mineralisation with a best intercept of 5m at 6.0% copper, 328g/t silver and 3.46% zinc.
New Guinea Gold reported high grade gold mineralisation in drill holes from its 60% owned Kavola East Prospect, Mt Penck Property, Papua New Guinea. Results included 72m at 1.79g/t gold and 12.9g/t silver, including 43m at 2.35g/t gold,14m at 2.82g/t gold, 2m at 36.7g/t gold, 2m at 15.35g/t gold, 10m at 1.99g/t gold, 6m at 3.67g/t gold, 13m at 3.06g/t gold, and 3m at 4.7g/t gold.
At New Guinea Gold's 100% owned Normanby Property, bulk sampling of 24 excavator trenches over a strike length of 1,240M (4090feet) of a single vein system at the Imwauna Project, gave results as high as 34.17g/t gold with eight trenches returning grades exceeding 20g/t gold. A total of 1254kg (2,760 lbs) of mineralised rock in 26 samples was collected. The arithmetic average of all trenches was 12.9g/t gold which represents a 39% increase on the original channel sample average grade of 9.3g/t gold. The overall grade at surface of the vein is probably higher than 12.9g/t as 11 trenches from a high grade part of the vein which were bulk sampled in late 2002 (a further 611.5 kgs of samples) were excluded from the present program.

If these samples are added to those of the present program the arithmetic average of all trenches/exposures sampled, over the strike length of 1,240m and an average width of one metre, is 26.4g/t gold or almost 1 oz gold/tonne.

HIGHLIGHTS

First successful well drilled in Oklahoma
Amity Oil drilled and cased the first well of a two well programme in Ellis county, Oklahoma
during this quarter. Initial results indicate approximately 64 feet of net gas pay within several
separate Morrow reservoir units. Each zone will be fracture stimulated to maximize the
producing capability. Equipment is on site and the fracture stimulation programme is due to
start in the next few days.
D. Adatepe-2 appraisal well successful
TPAO successfully drilled and tested the D. Adatepe-2 well in the Thrace basin of Western
Turkey. This was the fifth successful development well drilled on the Adatepe field. Currently
TPAO is planning to tie this well into the producing facilities. The well tested at 3.8 MMscf/d
with a 24/64” choke in place.
Increase in sales receipts, production steady
Cash receipts from sales were up significantly (56%) from the previous quarter. This was
primarily due to improved collections from customers, sales timing and an increase in the selling
price from the previous quarter. Average net production (i.e. Amity share) for the month was
steady at 9.25 MMscf/d (18.5 MMscf/d gross).
New gas customers in Turkey
During the quarter, one of our major gas customers elected to reduce the volume of gas
purchased to fulfill its own take-or-pay obligations to BOTAS. This election was not anticipated
and we were given no formal warning. To minimize the disruption to sales, two new customers
have been confirmed and since the end of the quarter one has commenced taking gas at
approximately 5 MMscf/d (gross). This covers a major portion of the earlier sales reduction.
Compressor installed at Gocerler field in Turkey
In July a 10 MMscfd compressor was installed at the Gocerler gas plant. Continuous production
through the compressor commenced in early August and immediately gross production increased
to average over 20 MMscf/d until the abovementioned customer reduction. Gocerler wells 1-5
have been connected to the compressor and Gocerler-6 is being produced separately.
Whicher Range diesel fracture stimulation disappointing
The multi-zone diesel fracture stimulation programme at the Whicher Range-5 well started on
schedule on 17 July. Significant unpredicted equipment failures slowed the progress of the
operation and resulted in higher costs than anticipated. The Whicher Range-5 well is currently
flowing back fracture fluids and gas at a relatively slow rate. It is not anticipated that this
operation will result in a commercial well or future programme for the Whicher Range field.
Further evaluation is required before deciding the fate of this project. - Web Site

NULLA NULLA # 1 Progress Report

Icon Energy wishes to advise that the progress from October 22 to 25 for the Nulla Nulla # 1 well being drilled in ATP 549P (west) in the Queensland portion of the Cooper Basin was 118 metres.

Current Depth		1970 metres
Current Operation		Drilling ahead in the Hutton Sandstone
Forward Operation		Drill ahead to the next potential reservoir
Spud Date		14^th October 2004
Programmed total depth		2420 metres

The top of the Hutton Sandstone was intersected at 1879.5 metres. A total of 9 metres of the unit was penetrated and due to the shows in the overlying 67 metre section and the shows within this 9 metre interval, it was decided to test this uppermost portion of the Hutton Sandstone.

A Drill Stem Test (DST) # 1 was conducted over the interval 1876 metres to 1888 metres. A recovery of 3 metres of drilling mud indicated that this portion of the Hutton Sandstone lacked porosity and permeability.

On recommencement of drilling, intermittent shows, manifested by varying amounts of fluorescence, have continued to the current depth. It is expected that further testing will be conducted.

Drilling of the well will continue to its programmed Total Depth and potential reservoirs are predicted within this remaining 600 metre section, which consists of the lower portion of the Hutton Sandstone, the basal Jurassic and Triassic units.

LAKES OIL

UPDATE WOMBAT 3 DRILLING
PEP 157, ONSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN, VICTORIA

Lakes Oil (“LKO”) advises that at 6:00AM today the Wombat 3 well was at a depth of 2,178 metres and running electric logs to assess the well prior to running casing.

Over the weekend oil fluorescence was encountered at the intervals from 2,097 metres and 2,112 metres and from 2,136 metres to 2,142 metres. We believe this oil fluorescence indicates the presence of oil in a fracture across these intervals. The full significance of these shows will not be known until electric logs have been run and casing set. Subject to the availability of testing equipment and personnel a Drill Stem Test will be conducted over these zones.

We are encouraged by these shows particularly the one encountered from 2,097 metres to 2,112 metres.
This oil fluorescence was accompanied by an increase in gas levels.

To our knowledge these fluorescence shows, which have occurred in fractures in the Strezlecki formation are a "first" and again highlight the "frontier" work that Lakes Oil has been carrying out in the onshore Gippsland basin in Victoria.

The latest shows add to the record onshore gas flows that lakes has already encountered in all three Wombat wells and include the gas flow recorded higher up in Wombat 3 which has estimated to have flowed at an estimated rate of between 3 million and 4 million cubic feet per day before decreasing to 65,000 cubic feet per day.

Lakes Oil continues to be encouraged by the results onshore Gippsland which has been ignored for so long by the exploration industry.

Wombat 3 is located mid way between Wombat 1 and 2, approximately 1 kilometre from each well.

The Wombat Block is located in PEP 157. An overriding royalty of 5% of the wellhead value of any hydrocarbon production is payable to Roma Petroleum N.L. a former holder of the permit.

Palmarejo Gold-Silver Project Resource Upgrade

The Directors are pleased to advise that an updated resource estimate has been completed for the Palmarejo Gold-Silver Project in the Temoris District, Chihuahua, Mexico.

The inferred category resource totals 20.0 million tonnes @ 4.8 g/t AuEq for 3.1 million ounces AuEq (which represents a trebling of the previous resource) as detailed in the table below.

The following points are significant in understanding the resource estimate:

The resource estimate is based on reverse circulation (RC) and diamond drilling results from the commencement of drilling in November 2003 up to hole PMDH110 completed in September 2004, plus a total of 89 underground trenches which were included in the resource estimate.
The resource estimate is based on drilling which covers only 700 metres strike length of the La Prieta structure which is currently known to extend to over 2,000 metres and 800 metres of the La Blanca structure which is currently known to extend to over 1,300 metres.
An additional reverse circulation rig is due on site within the next week. This rig will be used for infill drilling which will enable elements of the resource to move to the indicated category. Certain portions of La Prieta are drilled at required spacing for indicated confidence but this will be detailed in the next quarterly resource update. - Web Site

Investor Site Visit to WMC Operations
From Monday 25 to Thursday 28 October WMC Resources will host a site tour of its copper-uranium and nickel operations for market analysts, fund managers and investors.

The visit co-ordinated by WMC offers participants a chance to tour sites and hear directly from, and ask questions of, senior management on WMC's operations and business plans. The tour begins at Olympic Dam today with an address from WMC CEO, Andrew Michelmore followed by an overview of Olympic Dam Operations and the Development Study. The group will tour the surface plant and underground mine before leaving Olympic Dam for nickel operations at Mt Keith on Tuesday afternoon and Leinster on Wednesday. The tour concludes with a tour of the Kalgoorlie Nickel Smelter on Thursday.

Encouraging results mark next stage of Olympic Dam Development Study
Encouraging drill results, expanding technical options and an improving long term uranium price mark the completion of a successful next stage in WMC Resources Ltd (WMC's) Olympic Dam Development Study.

On 2003 numbers, Olympic Dam hosts the world's eighth largest copper and a third of the world's known uranium resources. The results of drilling to date suggest an expanded resource and more attractive mineralisation in the southern part of the orebody.

Speaking to investors and market analysts at Olympic Dam today, WMC Chief Executive Officer, Andrew Michelmore said, 'the results to date of both our technical work and drilling program suggest that either massive underground mining techniques, or an internationally competitive cost base for open pit operations, are very viable options.'

'The increasingly strong long term outlook for uranium prices, coupled with the indications from early drilling, are having a positive impact on the study. An expanded Olympic Dam would become the world's largest uranium producer', Mr Michelmore said.

The first phase drill results suggest additional mineralisation at a shallower depth. The results indicate the potential for higher grade and higher copper-to-sulphur ratio mineralisation, possibly extending the utilisation of current surface plant operations and allowing an earlier commencement of mining in the southern ore body.

The depth and thickness of mineralisation, along with recent mining technical advancements, opens the way to investigate the lower cost underground option of block caving, with higher production from underground mining than previously thought possible. - Web Site

SYDNEY GAS

Drilling Update - Stage II Camden Gas Project

Sydney Gas Ltd provides the following update upon Stage II of its Camden Gas Project.

As planned, Mt Taurus (“MT”) 8 production well, located less than 5 km from the site of the new gas plant now under construction at Rosalind Park, Campbelltown (“Rosalind Park Gas Plant (‘RPGP’)”), was successfully drilled to a total depth of 630m on 21 October 2004. The Bulli coal seam within the upper Permian Illawarra Coal Measures was intersected at 575m-578m.

As also planned, MT 9 production well, located less than 5 km from the RPGP, was successfully drilled to the planned total depth of 599m on 15 October 2004. The Bulli coal seam within the upper Permian Illawarra Coal Measures was intersected at 545m-548m. MT 9 was then drilled to a final total depth of 1025m on 22 October 2004 to investigate lower sandstone horizons as geological logging indicated the existence of fractured formation below the Bulli prone to gas flows during drilling.

At 1025m, MT 9 is the deepest well that Sydney Gas has drilled. It was drilled successfully. During drilling, estimated gas flow rates and shut-in pressures from the open hole were encouraging and indicative of gas production from the lower intervals. The full suite of logs is currently being run and will be further evaluated.

This concludes the Mt Taurus 10 production well drilling program inside Sydney Gas’ high production fairway within Stage II of the Camden Gas Project. These wells are now being prepared for fracture stimulation which is scheduled to begin before the end of October 2004. Once fracced and dewatered, these 10 wells will be put on a production flow test program. It is planned to then tie them into the gas gathering system that will deliver gas to the RPGP that is entering the final stages of construction for sale to AGL Wholesale Gas Ltd.

Sydney Gas’ next drilling program is planned to commence in the next 2-3 weeks within the Hunter Gas Project.

NULLA NULLA # 1 Progress Report

The operator advises that the 24-hour progress for the Nulla Nulla # 1 well, being drilled in ATP
549P (west) in the Queensland portion of the Cooper Basin, was 45 metres.

Depth		1852 metres
Current Operation		Drilling ahead in the Birkhead Formation
Forward Operation		Drill ahead to the Hutton Sandstone
Spud Date		14^th October 2004
Programmed total depth		2420 metres

Oil shows commenced at 1812 metres and have persisted down to the current depth. These shows are manifested by up to 100% but predominantly 40% to 80% bright yellow to dull orange patchy to pin-point fluorescence with a streaming cut and a thin residue ring. Associated with this fluorescence are elevated gas values of 2 to 4 times the background value with the gas composed of C1 to C5 components.

The interval of shows consists primarily of claystone and siltstone with only minor fine grained sandstone.

Correlation with the MacKillop # 1 well located 16 km to the east indicates that one of the primary targets, the Hutton Sandstone, should be intersected at about 1880 metres.

Icon’s interest on completion will be 33.3%.

Ellis-1 Well - Oklahoma - Ellis-1 is waiting for a fracture stimulation crew which is due to arrive on location October 30th. A multiple zone frac is planned over the three or four best gas zones interpreted from wireline logs. This is a standard frac treatment used by most operators to maximise the flow rate of Morrow gas bearing sandstones. Plans are also underway to connect the well to existing gas pipelines near the location.

Spudding of Ellis-2 Well - Oklahoma -

Main Points
Ellis-2 is expected to spud this evening or tomorrow WST (Friday October 22nd local time). Ellis-2 is the follow up to the discovery drilled at Ellis-1 and is in the adjacent section south of Ellis-1, approximately one mile away.
Drilling Programme
The objective of Ellis-2 is to evaluate the lower Morrow B, Morrow C, D, E and Itoka sands that are interpreted to be gas bearing in Ellis-1. This well will be drilled to a similar total depth of approximately 11,500 feet.
Ellis-2 offsets a previously drilled well which flowed gas at a rate of approximately 2.4 MMscf/d.
Other nearby wells have Morrow gas pay interpreted from the wireline logs, but were either not tested or failed to flow, interpreted to be a consequence of the poor drilling practices employed at the time. - Web Site

PETROLEUM DEVELOPMENT

North West Shelf expansion, Australia (BHP Billiton 16.67%, non operated)
The commissioning period for the fourth liquefaction processing train has been successfully completed with start-up achieved at the end of August 2004 and first significant LNG production having occurred by the end of September 2004. Board approved capital expenditure is US$247 million. This project is now fully operational and will no longer be included in this report.

Mad Dog Development, Gulf of Mexico, USA (BHP Billiton 23.9%, non-operated)
BHP Billiton announced its sanction of the Mad Dog field in February 2002, approving up to US$335 million for the development of this Gulf of Mexico oil and gas field. The sanctioned facility had been designed to a daily capacity of 80,000 barrels of crude oil and 40 million cubic feet of natural gas. Capacity of the facility has been increased to 100,000 barrels of oil per day, and the project's forecast budget has, as a consequence been increased to US$368 million, a 10 per cent increase over the original budget. During the quarter, the topsides were successfully installed on the hull, and offshore hook-up and commissioning commenced. The project remains on schedule for first production by the end of 2004.

Greater Angostura Development, Trinidad (BHP Billiton 45%, operated)
In March 2003, BHP Billiton approved US$327 million for the first development phase of the Angostura oil and gas field off the northeast coast of Trinidad. The project has a nameplate capacity of 100,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day. During the quarter, fabrication of onshore facilities continued, including oil storage tanks, pipelines and associated infrastructure. The remaining offshore facilities are being completed and offshore pipeline installation is in progress. The development drilling program in the Angostura field continues, 12 wells have been drilled and another 10 are still to be drilled. The project remains on budget and on schedule for first oil production by the end of 2004.............. - Web Site

MAJOR DRILLING PROGRAMME SCHEDULED FOR WOONGARING GOLD-BASE METALS PROJECT

Image Resources is pleased to announce that following the completion of
aboriginal heritage surveys, drilling of its 100%-owned Woongaring gold-base
metals project situated 140km north west of Southern Cross is now about to start.

Using its aeromagnetic database, Image identified several potential gold targets
in this under-explored area near the margin of the WA wheatbelt. Subsequent
reconnaissance geochemical sampling outlined a 10km-long gold and base
metal corridor which supported the initial target selection. The geochemically
anomalous corridor coincides with an interpreted district-scale shear zone and a
discrete circular aeromagnetic feature interpreted to be a late-stage intrusion.
The prospects are considered to have potential for both shear-hosted and
intrusion-related gold mineralisation. Following this encouragement Image has
applied for additional tenements over other aeromagnetic targets, increasing the
project area to 420sq km.

Subsequent to the discovery of the widespread geochemical anomalism Image
farmed out the project to Troy Resources NL. Under the terms of the Trojan
Joint Venture, which includes three other projects in the Eastern Goldfields
region, Troy may earn a 60% interest by sole funding $2 million of expenditure by
mid-2008.

A 170-hole, nominal 7,000m RAB drilling programme is scheduled to commence
in the next week with the object of carrying out a first-pass investigation of the
extensive geochemical anomalism of this soil and sand covered area. In
addition, a ground magnetic survey will also be carried out to better define a
number of geophysical targets.

Third Quarter Activities Report

Overview

Third quarter production was strong across all the major products. New projects in iron ore (Eastern Range), coking coal (Hail Creek), and diamonds (Diavik) all increased volumes.
There were no significant operational developments in the quarter.
Hamersley produced record volumes of iron ore in what is traditionally the strongest quarter of the year. August shipments through Dampier and Cape Lambert were also at record levels.
The first bauxite was fed into the Comalco Alumina Refinery in the third quarter and continuous alumina production is expected in the fourth quarter of 2004. - Web Site

SEPTEMBER Quarterly Report-

Highlights

Operations
- Record gold production for the quarter
- Higher plant availability as powerhouse generators problem rectified
- Mine production improving
Development
- Diamond drilling programme resumed after short break
- Sample shipment and assaying approximately 60% complete
- Feasibility Study for a 300,000 tpa plant at Amesmessa continued

Summary

GMA Resources Plc, the gold mining company, owns a 52% controlling interest in the promising Tirek Gold mine and exploration project in Algeria. The company's shares are listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange under the code GMA and on the Frankfurt Deutsche Boerse in Germany.
The Board's strategy is to complete a development plan for the substantial Tirek and Amesmessa gold deposits with a view to significantly expanding the existing gold mining operation. A major exploration drilling programme commenced in October 2003 and 20,000 metres of RC drilling and 2,000 metres of diamond drilling have been completed. The contract to complete the bankable feasibility study of a 300,000 tpa plant located at Amesmessa was awarded to GRD Minproc on 31 May 2004. The geology and mining sections will be prepared by RSG Global under contract to GRD Minproc. Included in GRD Minproc's scope of work is the completion of an Engineering Estimate for the possible expansion of the Tirek Plant to nominally 200,000 tpa.

During the quarter the company continued to operate and optimise the existing pilot plant operation at the Tirek minesite. Gold production for the quarter was 7,101 ounces. Gold production was the highest on record this quarter due to high plant availability, plant feed grades and throughput. Plant metal recovery remained high throughout the quarter and averaged 96.6%.

Gold sales for the quarter totaled 6,527 ounces. The average sale price received was US$443.22 per ounce. The spot price for gold traded in a range of approximately US$385 to US$415 per ounce over the September 2004 quarter. The price achieved reflects the unique position and price premium that the Company has for gold sales in Algeria.

First Quarter Activities & Cashflow Report

RESERVES AND RESOURCES
In the June Quarterly Report, the Company announced increases in the
estimates of resources and reserves used in its Bankable Feasibility Study
(“BFS”). Those improvements were due to a recognition that earlier assaying
methods had under-estimated the gold grades.

In consequence of that higher grade, it was announced on August 19 that
Westonia’s independent mining consultants had optimized and designed a
new pit. The Probable Reserve estimate within that pit, using the cost
structures in the BFS, was increased to:

15.6 Mt @ 1.37 g/t for a contained 687,000 ounces.

Compared to BFS estimates of reserves, tonnes were up 22%, grade up 5%
and contained ounces up 30%.

The new pit also contained an Inferred Resource of an additional

1.4 Mt @ 1.42 g/t for 64,000 ounces

The Company will immediately drill out these Inferred Resource positions
when the old open cut is dewatered. The aim will be to upgrade them to
reserves within the new pit design thus increasing recovered gold and
lowering the unit costs of production.

Conversion of Inferred Resources to ore and/or a future gold price rise could
allow design of a larger pit and improvements in project economics.

The Company also has previously announced that it anticipates recovering a
further 42,000 ounces from treatment of existing low grade oxide dumps.- Web Site

Updated Global Reserves & Resources Estimate

BANK FINANCE SECURED TO DEVELOP BEMAX'S POONCARIE PROJECT

The Board of Bemax Resources NL ("Bemax") is pleased to announce the Company has secured a debt facility of up to A$88 million to finance the majority of its world-class mineral sands project in the Murray Basin. Additional facilities, including bank guarantee facilities, have also been secured totalling A$20 million.

Bemax's financial advisors ABN AMRO Australia Limited ("ABN AMRO") arranged the debt facility, to be taken up by ABN AMRO Bank NV (Australian Branch) and Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited.

Mr Erwin Elstermann of ABN AMRO said that "the speed with which the financial institutions responded to the Company with formal offers of finance is testament to the merits of the Pooncarie Project and an endorsement of the recently announced Pooncarie Project Development Plan".

The Development Plan features significant reductions in capital cost and development risk, as a result of the incorporation of established infrastructure from the Company's recently acquired Western Australian operations.

High value minerals, including Zircon, Rutile and Leucoxene, will be mined at the Company's Pooncarie Project, located approximately 240 km south of Broken Hill.

The Pooncarie Project deposits are part of the Murray Basin holding owned and controlled by Bemax and are estimated to contain more than 60 million tonnes of heavy mineral resources. Production from the Pooncarie Project is expected to begin in the 2005 financial year, seeing Bemax tapping into the worldwide Zircon and Titanium pigment markets, estimated to be worth a combined US$9.5 billion a year.

Managing Director of Bemax, Mr Tony Shirfan said Bemax had already secured ‘offtake' agreements for the Pooncarie Project with a number of parties, including the world's largest buyer of titanium feedstock.

"The agreements, which are unprecedented in the market, cover production from the first five years of mine life with further options to extend another 5 years of the mine's 16 year life expectancy," Mr Shirfan said.

The debt facility arranged through ABN AMRO, combined with an equity raising, will provide funding for the Pooncarie Project through its Development Program and initial production of premium grade minerals.

Key infrastructure has already been secured for the Pooncarie Project, including one of the industry's largest dredges. Worley Limited, has been appointed to provide engineering and project management services to the Pooncarie Project.
Mr Shirfan said, "Demand for Zircon in recent years has risen dramatically, with the world market currently experiencing severe shortages with ever increasing demand, particularly from China - now one of the world's largest consumers of these products. In addition, demand for titanium feedstock (rutile, leucoxene, and ilmenite) used in the pigment industry, is expected to continue to rise steadily."

Pigment is used in a vast array of products including paint, plastics, paper, cosmetics and many other items used in our daily lives. Zircon is used in the production of ceramics, glazes, metal castings and TV glass used in the faceplates of computer screens and TV monitors.

Mr Shirfan concluded, "We expect development and construction to commence before the end of 2004, with production to commence next year and sales revenue generated during the 2006 financial year".

LAKES OIL

UPDATE WOMBAT 3 DRILLING
PEP 157, ONSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN, VICTORIA

Lakes Oil (“LKO”) advises that early this morning we finally re-tested the gas sand encountered between 1408 metres -- 1448 metres. Gas flowed to surface at an estimated rate of 1.25 million cubic feet per day on opening the tool. However, it again declined to an estimated rate of 65,000 cubic feet per day. This decline may have occurred for a number of reasons and we will not know until test tools have been recovered to surface later today, what has caused the decline.

Itt is possible, but unlikely, that we have again caused the formation above to "slump" into the well causing partial blockage. Alternatively, the effect of sitting for the past week waiting for last nights test to occur, may have caused swelling clays within the formation to react with drilling fluid and close off pore throats within the formation.

The most likely reason is that we are dealing with a classical "Tight Gas Reservoir" which will require fracture stimulation or horizontal drilling.

We continue to be encouraged by the amount of gas we are encountering in the Wombat Wells and point out that the estimated flow reported earlier in the week of 3-4 million cubic feet per day when we first entered this formation is significantly higher than any recorded gas flow on-shore Gippsland Basin.

Lakes firmly believes it will overcome with the help of our advisors Halliburton, the problems of Tight Gas Reservoirs and produce gas commercially in the region.

Wombat 3 will now be deepenedd to 2500 metres. Drilling will recommence over the weekend to evaluate the numerous gas shows encountered at deeper horizons in Wombat 1 and 2.

Minotaur Resources Ltd 100%, Oxiana Limited earning up to 65%.

Resource drilling continues at Prominent Hill, with the current results focussed on the western and eastern extensions to the mineralisation. The resource announcement of August 26 did not include areas of gold-only mineralisation in these areas.

The drilling confirms the presence of significant gold-only mineralisation in the west and suggests a significant increase to the gold inventory at Prominent Hill will be achieved.

WESTERN AREA

Extensions to the gold-only mineralisation outside of the Prominent Hill Resource have been discovered in the western portion of the deposit. This is highlighted by the results from hole PHO4 D079, drilled on the western edge of the currently outlined mineralised system to intersect the entire mineralised system from north to south. As anticipated, this hole intersected the copper-gold breccia, returning intercepts such as:

69.0 metres at 2.34% copper and 0.23 g/t gold from 435.0 metres down hole;
25.0 metres at 1.87% copper and 0.72 g/t gold from 666.0 metres; and
31.0 metres at 1.74% copper and 0.94 g/t gold from 763.0 metres.

Potentially of greater significance however, is that the hole, on the southern footwall of the copper-gold mineralization, entered steely haematite with gold-only mineralisation immediately after intersecting the copper-gold mineralisation reported above. The hole intersected:

28.0 metres at 3.72 g/t gold from 794 metres

and ended in high-grade mineralisation with the last six metres returning an uncut average of 10.4 g/t gold. The final metre returned 27 g/t gold. The intersection is open at depth and in section (Figure 2) indicates a complex transition from copper-gold breccias to gold-only mineralisation associated with the western steely haematite.

EASTERN AREA

Drill hole PH04D086 was drilled towards the east-south-east to intersect the interpreted northern extremity of the eastern steely haematite that had previously reported broad gold grades such as 80m at 3.31 g/t gold from PH04R080. The drill hole successfully intersected the northwestern extremity of the steely haematite body and penetrated 20 metres into the body before being terminated. The 20 metre zone of steely haematite returned an average grade of 1.01 g/t gold and mineralisation remains open at depth.

A fence of three, overlapping holes was completed on line 6300E, 200 metres east of the eastern gold-only steely haematite intercepts previously reported. Earlier drilling on this line returned sporadic gold intercepts only.

The current results confirm the presence of numerous low-grade gold intercepts within crackle-veined sediments with the best interval being 20.0 metres at 1.43 g/t gold. The drill holes confirm the presence of gold in what is potentially the far eastern portion of any open pit development, with the suggestion that the main mineralised breccia may be plunging to the east beneath this drill section.

FIELD PROGRAM TO COMMENCE AT ALLEMATA PROPERTY,
PAPUA NEW GUINEA

Recent field work at the Allemata Property (EL 1323) resulted in the definition of high grade gold in trench such as (a 4m width of 100g/t gold) and wide zones of anomalous gold in soils (200m wide zone of 1.24g/t gold including a 50m wide zone of 4.54g/t gold). The Allemata Property is located at the eastern end of the New Guinea mainland ~ 20 km southwest of Alotau.

The results were described in detail in a recent press release dated 10th June 2004.

The Allemata Property is held by Kanon Resources Ltd, a Papua New Guinea company, owned 50% by New Guinea Gold Corporation and 50% by Vangold Resources Ltd.

The partners regard the results from the Allemata Property as very exciting and the property is a high priority for drill testing. The surface field work to date has covered only parts of the Uloulo and Mt Haluba prospects. The present program will complete the soil sampling programs and will test gold anomalous areas with excavator trenching. Drilling will be planned on receipt of these results (expected in December/January), and subject to drill availability, will commence in February 2005.

To reduce capital costs at Lumwana with Simplified Development Plan

Due to continuing improvement of the base metal and equity markets, Equinox has been able to modify its development plan and achieve a simplified process design for the Lumwana Copper Project.

The simplification involves changing the process design from a two stage process to a single stage process involving the on-site processing of ore to concentrate for treatment at a third party smelter, as defined in the bankable feasibility study (“BFS”). The key benefit of the revised development plan is that there is no requirement for the stage two capital and an attractive return on investment is maintained, defining Lumwana as an economically robust project. The capital required for development as defined in the BFS for the single stage process design will be US$296 million, plus US$37 million for the initial capital for the mining fleet.

The BFS also defined a second stage of development that involved the construction of a roast-leach-electrowin (“RLE”) facility for on-site processing of concentrate to copper cathode. This RLE facility is now not considered an integral part of the development plan, but represents a potential project enhancement, if justified. - Web Site

Third Quarter Activities Report- September 2004

Strong production across our operations in the September quarter places us on track to achieve full year targets.

Reliability improvements, consistent performance and the draw down of surface stocks resulted in record copper production for the three months to September 2004 - with mine performance improving to plan.

Nickel-in-concentrate production increased 20% reflecting record throughput and recovery at Leinster. Production at the Kalgoorlie smelter increased 34% following completion of maintenance activities in June. Nickel metal production remains on track for 2004 targets.

The fertilizer operation returned to capacity production during the quarter with improved performance from the Mt Isa acid plant.

The drilling program to support the Olympic Dam Development Study continued with encouraging early results.

The outlook for 2005 is for increased nickel and fertilizer production, and copper production in line with the current year. Our focus remains on safe, consistent performance and improving returns in a continuing strong market for our commodities. - Web Site

LETTERS OF OFFER FOR FINANCE TO DEVELOP POONCARIE PROJECT RECEIVED

The Board of Bemax Resources NL ("Bemax"), is pleased to announce the receipt of formal letters of offer for the full debt funding required for the Pooncarie Project.

A Bank Debt Information Memorandum was released to selected banks in early September by the Company's financial advisors ABN AMRO. Mr Erwin Elstermann of ABN AMRO said that "the speed with which the financial institutions have responded with formal offers of finance is testament to the merits of the Pooncarie Project and an endorsement of the recently announced Pooncarie Project Development Plan".

The Development Plan features significant reductions in capital cost and development risk, as a result of the incorporation of established infrastructure from the Company's recently acquired Western Australian operations.
Bemax's Managing Director, Mr Tony Shirfan, said "the Company is now in a position to progress acceptance of the offers of finance thereby ensuring that the timetable set on 23 August 2004 continues to be met. This timetable provides for the capital raising required to fund the development of the Pooncarie Project, both debt and equity components, to be completed prior to Christmas and production at the Ginkgo mine to commence in the fourth quarter of 2005, for sales in first quarter 2006".

Whilst the capital raising is being finalised, work under the Development Plan, including engineering design and transport of plant and equipment to Broken Hill, is continuing.

Ord Minnett Limited have been appointed to advise the Company in regard to the equity capital raising.

Musgrave joint venture - Update on geochemical sampling

Independence Group NL as manager of our Musgrave Joint Venture has advised that encouraging results have been received from the recent wide-spaced reconnaissance geochemical sampling program over targeted portions of EL5701 and EL5703 in the Northern Territory.

Laboratory results have now been received for a total of 1,464 samples that were collected from 732 separate sample sites on a grid spacing ranging from 1km x 0.5km to 4km x 0.5km. The survey covered an area of approximately 1,000km² over the prospective late Proterozoic rift sequence of bimodal volcanics, sediments and granitic intrusions.

The sampling consisted of a fine -75 micron soil sample and ironstone concentrate sample from each sample site and were analysed for a range of elements.

A number of encouraging trends of low level gold (Au) anomalism ranging from 6ppb up to 15ppb gold (background <2ppb gold) in iron stone samples have been identified up to 8km in length. These trends are in several cases in part coincident with a number of other elevated elements in both ironstone and fine fraction soil sampling.

Despite being relatively low level the wide spread gold anomalism is encouraging given the considerable wind blown aeolian sand component of the regolith in this region.

The well has multiple sandstone objectives in the Jurassic, Triassic and Permian sections. The structure is one of the few remaining large features with estimated potential of 27.5 million barrels of oil.

Icon is carried through the well and will retain a 33 1/3% working interest at the conclusion of the farmin programme.

USA

In the Bayou Choctaw field in Louisiana the first of the development wells is undergoing initial testing and it will be sometime before stabilised production rates are obtained. The seismic data cube has been reprocessed with very encouraging results and the original programme of drilling the first development well prior to the end of the year is still planned.

UPDATE WOMBAT 3 DRILLING
PEP 157, ONSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN, VICTORIA

Further to Friday’s report advising gas flowing to the surface, we advise the flow rate increased rapidly to an estimated 3-4 million cubic feet a day. This estimated rate was sustained for about 30 minutes before the rate began to rapidly decline to a stabilised flow of about 60,000 cubic feet a day indicating that bridging has occurred in the well which has the effect of blocking flow. Currently we are assembling equipment on site to allow us to re-test this zone which is expected to take place late tomorrow.

Wombat 1 is currently scheduled to a total depth of 2500 metres to evaluate the numerous gas shows encountered in Wombat 1 and 2.

Wombat 3 is located mid way between Wombat 1 and 2, approximately 1 kilometre from each well.

The Wombat Block is located in PEP 157. An overriding royalty of 5% of the wellhead value of any hydrocarbon production is payable to Roma Petroleum N.L. a former holder of the permit.

New Drilling Results - Kalkaroo Prospect (EL 2720 - Havilah 100%)

Havilah is pleased to release further encouraging assay results for an additional eleven holes from its ongoing drilling programme at the Kalkaroo copper - gold prospect. The holes were drilled on four sections lines 100 metres apart through the interpreted copper - gold resource envelope and encountered strong ore grade intercepts on each section line as follows:

39 metres of 0.97 % Cu and 1.3 g/t Au in KKRC014
78 metres of 0.81 % Cu and 0.77 g/t Au in KKRC016
52 metres of 0.80 % Cu and 0.85 g/t Au and 570 ppm Mo in KKRC018
42 metres of 1.37% Cu and 1.66 g/t Au and 166 ppm Mo in KKRC022

Most holes contain significant associated molybdenum, which often extends beyond the best copper –gold intervals as in KKRC018 which returned 119 metres of 402 ppm Mo. Native copper continues to be observed in the upper part of many holes. For comparative purposes 1% Cu equates to roughly 2.35 g/t Au and 500 ppm Mo equates to 2.75 g/t Au at current metal prices. - Web Site

WOMBAT 3 DRILLING UPDATE
PEP 157, ONSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN, VICTORIA

Further to today’s earlier report issued at 9:45 AM, Lakes Oil (“LKO”) advises that Wombat 3 which is being drilled underbalanced has produced gas to surface. During recovery of “Drill String” - gas has begun flowing to the surface at increasing rates. At this stage it is too early to measure, however, Lakes will advise the market as soon as possible when more information is available.

Wombat 1 is currently scheduled to a total depth of 2500 metres to evaluate the numÅ|erous gas shows encountered in Wombat 1 and 2.

Wombat 3 is located mid way between Wombat 1 and 2, approximately 1 kilometre from each well.

The Wombat Block is located in PEP 157. An overriding royalty of 5% of the wellhead value of any hydrocarbon production is payable to Roma Petroleum N.L. a former holder of the permit.

Rock Chip Sampling Results - Mount Elvire, Western Australia
(Mount Burgess Mining N.L. 100%)

The Company is pleased to announce the following results from a rock chip sampling programme carried out over various locations within the Company's Mount Elvire Project tenements, west of Menzies :

Rock chip of a sediment hosted sulphidic gossan returned 3.6 g/t Au, with associated 313 ppm Cu and 286 ppm Zn. Initial mapping suggests a broad zone of alteration; future work will define the extent of gold mineralisation.
Rock chip of an ultrabasic rock from a layered intrusive returned .23 g/t Platinum Group Elements with a Platinum:Palladium ratio of 0.65, with co-incident Cu and Ni values of 114 and 95 ppm respectively. Outcrop mapping and sampling will be undertaken to determine whether an economic PGE horizon is present.
Within the same tenement as (2) above, a rock chip from a gossan (previously tested in 1970) returned 13% Cu, 261 ppm Ni and minor Au. A gossan search and sampling programme will be undertaken shortly to extend this mineralisation

Equinox Commences Exploration Drilling Program at Lumwana

Equinox Minerals Limited (TSX and ASX symbol: “EQN”) has commenced a substantial exploration drilling program at Lumwana in Zambia. Equinox is currently engaged in a US$300 million financing of the development of a major copper resource at Lumwana. According to an independent feasibility study, Lumwana is set to become one of Africa’s largest copper mines, initially producing about 140,000 tonnes of copper per year, and with an anticipated mine life in excess of 17 years.

The Company has commenced the first systematic exploration of the Lumwana region since the mid 1970s. Equinox has flown high resolution airborne magnetics and radiometrics, conducted geological mapping and Induced Polarization (“IP”) geophysical surveys, and compiled a comprehensive GIS database of all previous data.

A reverse circulation (“RC”) drilling program has commenced to test a number of high priority targets within a 15 km radius of the proposed Lumwana processing plant. A series of 27 targets have been defined for evaluation, of which three high priority targets will be tested in the current drilling program. - Web Site

Wireline Log Results for Mauritania Wells

Tevét-1 Exploration Well – PSC B - Progress and Current Status:

Since the last report (5 October 2004) wireline logs have been run. Evaluation of the wireline data, including reservoir pressures and oil and gas samples indicate that Tevét-1 has intersected a gross hydrocarbon column of 114 metres, comprising at least a 70 metre gas leg and a 44 metre oil leg. An oil water contact is inferred to have been intersected on the basis of pressure data. The well was not drilled in a crestal location but was located to intersect predicted fluid contacts. Note: The pre-drill prediction of contacts and fluid types has been confirmed by the well.

Upon completion of the wireline logging programme the well will be plugged and abandoned as planned and the Stena Tay will move to drill the bottom hole section of Dorade-1 well (PSC 2), containing the target interval.

Note: There are no plans to drill-stem test any exploration well in the current drilling campaign. - Web Site

WOMBAT 3 DRILLING UPDATE
PEP 157, ONSHORE GIPPSLAND BASIN, VICTORIA

Lakes Oil (“LKO”) advises that due to a mechanical fault, believed to be blocked jets in the bit, re-entry and drilling has been delayed. Currently we expect to recommence drilling late this afternoon.

This well has been designed to test the gas sands occurring within the Strzelecki formation, which occurred in Wombat 1 and 2.

Wombat 3 is located mid way between Wombat 1 and 2, approximately 1 kilometre from each well.

The Wombat Block is located in PEP 157. An overriding royalty of 5% of the wellhead value of any hydrocarbon production is payable to Roma Petroleum N.L. a former holder of the permit.

MOTO GOLDMINES

MOTO TO LIST ON TORONTO EXCHANGE

Perth-based Moto Goldmines (ASX:MTO) plans to list on the Toronto Stock
Exchange.

Subject to regulatory approvals, trading in the securities should begin by
early 2005.

"The listing will allow us greater access to the North American market and
its significant funding base," said Klaus Eckhof, Moto Goldmines Executive
Director.

The company is conducting an extensive exploration programme in the
Haut-Congo province in the north east of the Democratic Republic of Congo.

"North American investors are more comfortable investing in Africa than
Australian investors at present and those that we have spoken to are excited
by the world-class potential of our project," Mr Eckhof said.

The Democratic Republic of Congo has a long history of gold mining and was
the world's fifth largest gold producer in the 1960's.

The Moto and Kilo region, which has been the site of significant gold
production since 1906 are typically spectacular high grade large tonnage
gold deposits which have essentially not been explored since the 1960's.

"The Toronto listing will assist secure significant ongoing funding for
development of our Moto project," Mr Eckhof said.

Moto also plans to raise $6 million to continue its exploration and provide
working capital by issuing 24 million new shares at an issue price of 25
cents, together with 12 million attaching options on the basis of one option
for every two shares issued. - Web Site

TAWANA ALLUVIAL BULK SAMPLE BEGINS

Limeacre District, Kimberley Region, South Africa.

The Directors of Tawana Resources NL (“the Company”) advise that processing of the 20,000 tonne bulk sample of Northern Feeder Channel (“NFC”) gravels has commenced. The NFC constitutes the major portion of the “Feeder Channel” (please refer Diagram 2).

Processing of the NFC bulk sample is expected to take 6 months to complete. Shareholders will be informed of meaningful results as and when they occur. Progress reports will be released to shareholders over the period.

Tawana Alluvials Drill Program
The Bauer wide-diameter drill program started in August 2004. Thirty six holes have been drilled. This has provided an initial supply for the Dense Media Separation Plant of 6000 tonnes of gravels. The full 20,000 tonne drilling program for the NFC is scheduled for completion by the end of December 2004. Processing of the NFC bulk sample is due for completion by March 2005. The Bauer drilling has provided important information about the NFC. Gravel thickness ranges from 30m in the central channel to 18m on the western flank with gradual shallowing toward the east. It is estimated, based on percussion and Bauer drilling and magnetic surveys, that the tonnage of gravels contained within the Feeder Channel as a whole is in the range of 125 - 150 million tonnes*
*Note; The Company considers that this tonnage estimate does not satisfy the definition of a Mineral Resource as set out in the JORC Code as insufficient work has been conducted to be able to determine the grade of the deposit and to determine the tonnage with greater accuracy. Further work may or may not establish a Mineral Resource on the property. Accordingly, the estimate of tonnes is released as provided by the guideline to paragraph 17 of the JORC Code (1999) and paragraph 18 of the Draft JORC Code of 2004 in relation to an exploration target or exploration potential.- Web Site

Progress and Current Status:
Since the last report (28 September 2004) the Stena Tay rig arrived on location on 30 September and the well was drilled from the 13 3/8 inch casing (1,377 metres) to total depth of 2,715 metres. The current operation is running wireline logs.
MWD (Measurement While Drilling) logs (see below) and initial wireline logs indicate the presence of oil and gas bearing zones. Logging and evaluation, including pressure and sample collection, is continuing and results will be reported once that programme is completed and evaluated.

Tiof-3 Appraisal Well – PSC B
Progress and Current Status:
Since the last report (28 September 2004) operations continued with the West Navigator rig and the 13 3/8 inch casing was run and cemented at 2,145 metres depth. The well was then drilled to a total depth of 2,960 metres.

A preliminary assessment of the MWD logs (see below) indicates the presence of oil in the target interval. The current operation is preparing to run logs after which a sidetrack hole will be drilled to obtain core samples and test the reservoir as planned. The results of the wireline logging will be reported once that programme is completed and evaluated.

NIDO PETROLEUM

100 Day Plan : Day 35 Status Report

The 100 Day Plan

Nido has adopted a 100 Day Plan to move the company through the first stages of the process with a strong sense of urgency. Day 1 was 24 Aug 2004 with Day 100 being 01 Dec 2004. During this period we will thoroughly evaluate the strengths and weakness of our asset base, gain a viewpoint on the value we can deliver and adopt the strategy and tactics to deliver that value.

Since Day 1 we have focused on understanding the asset base at Nido. Our board held an Asset Review Workshop on Days 9 & 10 which was a valuable opportunity to focus the collective experience and wisdom of the new team towards adding value to Nido. Personally, I had my eyes opened to the hidden value in the Palawan Basin, particularly in terms of near-term production optimisation opportunities. As relationships are so important to our success in the Philippines, Nido team members have been in Manila twice, to meet with the operating team and the management committee of the Joint Venture. They were gracious in accepting us and recognised the expertise of the new team

Day 23 was a defining moment for Nido as we were awarded the rights to two blocks in the North Sea. The change in the lease tenure guidelines in the North Sea created an opportunity for small, aggressive companies to establish a position in the open acreage in the basin with very little capital exposure. Both

Nido blocks have existing gas discoveries and are close to under – utilised pipeline infrastructure which reduces the normal transportation and market risk associated with gas development projects. The Nido team has the North Sea experience as well as gas development experience to monetize the asset should the geological work produce satisfactory results.

I have been actively talking to all shareholders and brokers who have shown an interest or have questions about the Company. I will commit to continue this on-going dialogue to ensure that all stakeholders are aware of key facts about the Company in order to make an informed investment decision. Our next task ahead of the team is to generate the funds for the company to carry us through the technical work we have planned. You will be informed of the progress on this item as we make progress.

Value Proposition at Nido

Over the years, I have found that defining value, formulating an action plan to deliver the value and assessing the risks associated with the plan is a complex task. At Nido we will adopt a “three legs in the stool” approach to simplify the issue.

The first leg is Value Optimisation which identifies assets we have that can be optimised, in the near-term, by either increasing production or reducing operating costs. In working with the operator we have identified opportunities to both increase production and reduce operating costs in the Nido and Matinloc fields in the Philippines.

The second leg is Value Realisation where we have assets that have resources discovered, perhaps delineated, where reserves can be certified and development plans executed. The Galoc field in the Philippines is our key Value Realization asset and on 23 Sept 2004, (Day 31) Nido, along with the other participants in the SC14 Contract executed the farm-in to a consortium to develop the Galoc field and to carry the costs of the Philippine JV participants. This is a first step to realizing the value we see in the Galoc field.

The third, and perhaps the most important leg, is Value Creation. The Nido team is success-oriented, experienced and nimble to identify and capture value creation opportunities. At present, in the Philippines, we have license over 2200 sq km of 3-D seismic over our acreage in the Palawan Basin which has been evaluated in the past and we have initiated an action plan to continue this work in order to generate a prospect and lead inventory for the Philippines The North Sea blocks give us a new opportunity for value creation and a balance to the Philippines assets. We will target completing the geophysical work on both assets, and as far as the North Sea is concerned, will continue to look for more opportunities to give Nido the critical mass in the region to form a second core area.

It is my hope that you view this strategy as a positive first step for Nido. I will roll out more detailed information on these opportunities as the segments of the work are concluded. I will give you the next 100 Day Status report in December. I look forward to a continuous dialogue with all stakeholders so we can all realise the value I believe our asset base and team can deliver.

SUB-SAHARA RESOURCES

Farms out Gold Projects in Tanzania

Sub-Sahara is pleased to announce the signing of a letter of intent dated October 1st, 2004 with Currie Rose Resources Inc. (CUI) of Ontario, Canada whereby CUI has been granted an exclusive option to earn up to a 70% interest in 3 project areas known as Jubilee Reef, Mabale Hills and Nyamirembe that cover a total of 679.84km2 of highly prospective Archaean age greenstone in the Lake Victoria gold field in Tanzania. The basic terms of the agreement are as follows:

CUI can earn an initial 10% interest by issuing 4,000,000 shares in its capital to Sub- Sahara and a further 10% by conducting exploration to the minimum value of US$300,000 within twelve months of the date of this Letter of Intent.
CUI may acquire an additional 20% interest (for a total of a 40% interest in the Mineral Properties) by conducting further exploration to the minimum value US$870,000 on the Mineral Properties within three years bringing total expenditure to a minimum of US$1,170,000.
CUI may acquire an additional 30% interest for a total of a 70% interest in the Mineral Properties by funding one of the Mineral Properties through to a bankable feasibility study within four years of earning a 40% interest, at which point the parties will contribute to ongoing costs on a pro-rata basis.
In the event that CUI elects not to earn an additional 30% then the parties will form a joint venture with the equities being 40% CUI and 60% Sub-Sahara, and the parties will contribute to ongoing costs on a pro-rata basis and Sub-Sahara will be the manager of the joint venture.
Sub-Sahara will be the manager of the project until Currie Rose earns a 40% interest.

The option is subject to the following conditions:
1. CUI completing a private placement financing of $500,000;
2. CUI appointing one representative of Sub-Sahara to its board of directors;
3. CUI completing its due diligence of the properties; and
4. CUI obtaining the required regulatory approvals from the TSX Venture Exchange.

The management of Sub-Sahara believe that this will add considerable value to the projects and the ability of Sub-Sahara to manage these projects during the initial stages is a benefit to both companies given Sub-Sahara’s experience in the country and on the projects. - Web Site

MACMIN SILVER

MACMIN SILVER INTERSECTS HIGH-GRADE COPPER-SILVER MINERALISATION
AT ITS TEXAS SILVER PROJECT
INCLUDING 1 METRE AT 10.0% COPPER, 508G/T SILVER AND 6.5% ZINC

SUMMARY

A two-hole diamond drilling programme at the Tuliambi copper-silver prospect has encountered significant copper-silver-zinc mineralisation at shallow depth.

Diamond hole TUD1 intersected 9m at 2.5% copper, 98g/t silver and 0.4% zinc between 40m and 49m downhole. Diamond hole TUD2, drilled more steeply beneath TUD1, intersected 5m at 6.0% copper, 328g/t silver, 3.4% zinc and 0.5% lead between 93m and 98m downhole; the intersection is equivalent to approx. 1,200g/t silver [a metal value of approx. $360/tonne].

The Company considers these high metal value intersections to be very encouraging, particularly in light of the early stage of exploration in the Tuliambi area.

The massive sulphide copper mineralisation at Tuliambi appears to occur in a sub-vertical structural zone and is of a different style to the disseminated silver ore at the Twin Hills Silver Mine, where silver production is planned to commence in 2005.

TULIAMBI COPPER-SILVER PROJECT

Previous Work

The Tuliambi Prospect is situated 5 km north-east of the mining lease that surrounds the Twin Hills Silver Mine within the central area of the Texas Silver Project.

15 old pits and collapsed shafts occur along a north trending line in excess of 500m in length, which historic records indicate was mined between 1920 and 1922. The main shaft reached about 40m depth but was stopped by waterflows. The majority of shafts were vertical and reached less than 15m.

Government records show a production history of 81t of ore grading 11% copper and 1,273g/t silver.

In early 2004, Macmin carried out a RAB (rotary air blast) drilling programme with holes located every 25m along an established track between Tuliambi and Twin Hills. Low level (max. value 162ppm copper) and barely detectible silver values (0.7ppm) were found near the Tuliambi workings during this programme.

In July, the Company announced that one percussion hole TUP7 (part of a 12 hole percussion programme drilled in the area) had intersected 9m at 110g/t silver and 2.29% copper between 32m and 41m downhole and was stopped due to water. The termination of the percussion drilling by water necessitated a change to the drilling technique and the use of diamond drilling to allow deeper testing of the zone.

Current Work

A programme of two diamond drill holes and five percussion holes was carried out in August. The two diamond drill holes (Table 1) tested the aforementioned copper-silver zone encountered in TUP7 and the five percussion holes tested some of the old pits along the line of workings.

Diamond hole TUD1 intersected 9m at 2.5% copper, 98g/t silver and 0.4% zinc between 40m and 49m downhole. Diamond hole TUD2, drilled more steeply beneath TUD1, encountered 5m at 6.0% copper, 328g/t silver, 3.4% zinc and 0.5% lead between 93m and 98m downhole; this included a 1m interval of 10.0% copper, 508g/t silver and 6.5% zinc between 94m and 95m downhole. The drill core was split into 1m sample lengths and assayed by ALS-Chemex in Brisbane.

The massive sulphide copper mineralisation at Tuliambi appears to occur as a sub-vertical structural zone and is of a different style to the disseminated silver ore at the Twin Hills Silver Mine. Downhole geophysical surveys (EM) will be undertaken to define targets for further drill testing.

Table 1 (0.5% copper cut-off)

*Hole No.*	*Co-ords*	*From*	To	*Interval*	*Copper(%)*	*Silver g/t*	*Zinc (%)*
TUD1	6812038N 333240E	40m	49m	9m	2.5	98	0.4
TUD2	6812038N 333240E	93m Incl. 94m 129m	98m 95m 130m	5m 1m 1m	6.0 10.0 2.6	328 508 123	3.4 6.5 1.3

Five percussion holes were drilled to shallow depths (less than 40m) to test beneath several of the old pits along the line of workings. Anomalous silver and copper values were encountered in most holes with a best intercept of 2m at 224g/t silver and 0.5% lead between 16m and 18m downhole in TUP15.

The early stage of exploration in the Tuliambi area has shown some very encouraging results and further work in the coming quarter will be aimed at defining the lateral and vertical extent of the copper-silver mineralisation.

Carnarvon Petroleum (ASX: CVN), today filed with the ASX its Financial Report for the year ended 30 June 2004. The group reported a slight improvement in its overall result, with a consolidated loss for the year of $1,417,000, compared to a loss of $1,508,000 in 2003.

The operating result from its 40% interest in the SW1A joint venture was weaker due to reduced production, decreased sales and the appreciation of the A$ during 2004. Carnarvon’s share of revenue for the year from the SW1A joint venture was $975,000 compared to $1,366,000 in the previous corresponding period. The reduction in barrels sold during the year was due to limited contribution from the Phase III wells N7 and N8 due to completion problems, which did not offset the normal decline from the existing wells.

The joint venture is operationally cash flow positive and currently Carnarvon does not have any expenditure commitments to the joint venture. The operating costs of the joint venture are largely fixed, therefore it is anticipated that increased oil production and sales volume would contribute to improved margins and returns.

Corporate administration costs were reduced by $193,000 to $1,328,000 for the year compared to $1,521,000 in 2003. After excluding the remuneration paid during the year to the former managing director, corporate administration costs were reduced by $335,000 to $1,186,000. Carnarvon continues to focus on its corporate administration costs and further reductions are anticipated in the current financial year.

The group has reported a strong working capital position at 30 June 2004 of approximately $1 million, including cash reserves of $528,000, a receivable of $100,000 from the SW1A joint venture, and a current investment in Ausam Energy Corporation, recorded at cost, of $283,000. This investment is currently valued at $460,000, based on recent trades of Ausam shares on the TSX Venture Exchange. - Web Site
