BEMAX

WorleyParsons Project Management Contract Executed for Pooncarie Project

Bemax Resources NL (‘Bemax') is pleased to announce that it has executed a Project Management Services Agreement (‘Agreement’) with WorleyParsons Services Pty Ltd (‘WorleyParsons’) for the implementation of the Pooncarie Project.

WorleyParsons has been working closely with Bemax since June 2004 to finalise the scope of the Pooncarie Project, provide updates to the capital cost estimate and develop the Project Execution Plan. Finalisation of the Agreement brings closure to the pre-implementation phase of the Pooncarie Project.

Under the Agreement, WorleyParsons will provide engineering, procurement and construction management services for the Pooncarie Project, including undertaking the role of Superintendent for contracts let for the Pooncarie Project. A bonus/penalty arrangement has been agreed with WorleyParsons.

At the Ginkgo site, mine pit excavation, road construction, and construction camp development work is continuing on schedule.

Bemax is planning to commence production at its Pooncarie Project towards the end of 2005, allowing advantage to be taken of the very strong short-term, and positive medium- to long-term outlook for both titanium feedstock and zircon.

ICON ENERGY

First Quarter Activities & Cashflow Report

United States
Reprocessing of the 3D seismic data was finally completed and the results are in the final stages of interpretation. The salt dome interface, which is critical to the placement of wells near the salt edge, has been improved to the extent that it is now possible to see the edge of the salt that was not clear on the earlier processing done ten years ago when the original data was acquired. As soon as the drilling locations are fine tuned and a drilling contract signed, new deep drilling will commence. This is now expected to be in late June to early July subject to operational constraints of rig mobilization and rig contract negotiations.

Oil production has stabilized at 150 BOPD but several wells are shut in waiting on further treatments such as gravel packing. Some of the workover wells produced too much sand which clogged the pumps and shut them down.

Australia

The drilling plans for Stitch No.1 in ATP 626P are progressing. A drilling rig slot has been acquired and other drilling services and supplies arranged. With drilling equipment and supplies in demand availability has been a problem. A Share Purchase Plan has been offered to shareholders following March 31 2005 and some of the funds raised under this offer will be committed to the drilling of Stitch No.1.

The Right to Negotiate (RTN) process in ATP 589P in Southwest Queensland has now been signed by all parties and is with the Minister for final signature. This agreement is a significant milestone as it is the first RTN agreement to be signed in Queensland for petroleum exploration.
This agreement should serve as a model for further agreements to be reached quickly for similar areas of prospectivity.- Web Site

MACMIN SILVER

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 29% 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.

Mine site construction commenced at the Twin Hills Silver Mine with site works starting on leach ponds and the base for heap leach pads. A new mine access road was completed.

A mobile crushing plant comprising jaw crusher screens and core crusher was purchased from Extec Screens and Crushers Limited (U.K.) and delivered to site.

Test processing of a 30 tonne sample of silver ore is currently in progress. The aim of the test is to produce sufficient silver powder to carry out characterization tests and to provide samples to end users.

NGG reported a 140,000 oz gold inferred mineral resource at the Mt Penck project in PNG.

High grade gold intersected by NGG Corporation in drill holes at Imwauna Prospect, PNG, including 4m at 7.93g/t gold; 2m at 20.3g/t gold; 5m at 5.86g/t gold and 4m at 14.05g/t gold.

BREAKAWAY RESOURCES

Third Quarter Cashflow Report

HIGHLIGHTS
Breakaway Resources Limited, a diversified exploration and development company, has completed a very active quarter.

KAMBALDA WEST
Reverse Circulation drilling completed at the Gardiner, Kemble and Burnam prospects intersected anomalous nickel and gold mineralisation. Down Hole EM surveys have identified new off hole conductors at the Gardiner and Burnam prospects significantly enhancing the potential for new nickel sulphide mineralisation.
Auger soil geochemistry completed over the “Gilbert Option” tenements at Yilmia has outlined a series of significant discrete gold soil anomalies (above 30 ppb) in the same geological setting as the Spargos Reward gold deposit. The gold results also contained five (5) assays in excess of 1 g/t gold with a peak value of 9 g\t gold.

ELOISE
In Queensland, a detailed airborne magnetic survey has been completed over the western portion of the 240 square kilometre Eloise project area. The data is currently being processed by Breakaway’s
consultants in Perth.
Previously recorded DTHEM data from the Altia Pb-Ag prospect, south west of the Eloise Mine, is being reprocessed and interpreted. The re-interpretation will greatly assist Breakaway to target the next round of drilling at Altia where previous drilling has intersected broad zones of lead-silver mineralisation including 39.6 metres grading 8.17% lead and 30.6 g/t silver.

MIRANDA
During the quarter, Breakaway executed a Heads of Agreement with gold group, Gold Fields Limited to restructure the Miranda and Vivien Joint Ventures in the Leinster area of Western Australia.
The restructure will result in Breakaway securing a 100% interest (from 40% previously) in the base metal rights over all Miranda and Vivien Joint Venture tenements, including 100% title to four highly prospective nickel tenements at Miranda North. The Miranda North Project, which covers an area of approximately 27 square kilometres, is located just three kilometres south of Jubilee Mines NL’s emerging Prospero and Anomaly 4 nickel prospects.

BANNOCKBURN NICKEL JOINT VENTURE
Joint Venture manager Jubilee Mines NL reported an active quarter at Bannockburn focussed at Babylon, Antioch, Mt Clifford, Marshall Well and Schimitz Well prospects.- Web Site

Third Quarter Activities & Cashflow Report

SUMMARY

The Board of Directors has decided that at present the Westonia Project in its current form is too marginal to develop and that further investment is warranted in order to realise full value from the resource.
Preparations to implement a new initiative, which comprises a dewatering programme followed by grade control and resource drilling programmes has commenced. The new initiative is aimed at significantly upgrading the overall robustness of the Westonia project and the subsequent development of the Westonia Gold Mine.
In order to implement the new initiative, the Company has appointed a new Managing Director, Company Secretary (and Chief Financial Officer) and Westonia Resident Manager.
A fully underwritten one for two non-renounceable entitlements issue at 10 cents will raise approximately $5 million (net of issue expenses) to fund the new initiative. Major shareholder Lion Selection Group will take up its full 37% entitlement.
In addition to the entitlements issue, investors may also subscribe for shares at 10 cents by participating in the General Offer to raise up to $0.5M. The General Offer is not underwritten.
Selective, targeted exploration will be undertaken to further test already identified anomalies on the substantial tenement position.- Web Site

DOW JONES

Stocks sagged Thursday as the latest GDP reading came in below expectations and raised more questions about the strength of the economy -- in spite of robust earnings and higher forecasts from Procter & Gamble Co. and other companies. The Dow Jones industrial average slid more than 125 points.
High energy prices resulted in consumers and businesses cutting back on other spending in the first quarter, causing the economy to log its slowest growth in two years.

MITHRIL

Third Quarter Activities & Cashflow Report

HIGHLIGHTS

CORPORATE

Cash reserves of $5,748,100 at March 31 2005, taking into consideration joint venture receivables and outstanding creditors.

EXPLORATION

Barrow Creek Joint Venture Northern Territory

Following BHP Billiton's withdrawal, Mithril entered into an Option and Joint Venture Agreement with Falconbridge (Australia) Pty Ltd. The new JV will transfer the remaining expenditure requirement from Mithril, who will be the initial operator, to Falconbridge and allow Mithril to retain 24% equity in the property free carried through to the completion of a Pre-feasibility Study or a decision to proceed with underground development whichever occurs first.
Drilling, scheduled for May, will test an off-hole electromagnetic target located at a depth of 200 metres and 50 west of a mafic intrusive body hosting thin massive nickel sulphide mineralisation (grades up to 2.86% nickel). The conductor is coincident with a gravity high indicating the possibility for sulphide mineralisation hosted in a mafic rock at depth.
Talia Hill Joint Venture South Australia

A ground electromagnetic survey completed in early March 2005 over the supergene nickel anomaly identified a significant bedrock conductive body. This conductor is interpreted to be at least 400 metres in strike extent, sub vertical, and 70 metres below surface with a moderate easterly plunge.
A combined percussion and diamond drilling program comprising 1200 metres will be completed to test the conductive body and its plunge component.
Musgrave Province South Australia

The Company finalised a Joint Venture Agreement with the Pitjantjatjara Mining Company Pty Limited (PMC) and Zeil No 1 Pty Limited (Zeil). The Joint Venture is for the purposes of exploring for nickel sulphide opportunities in South Australia's Musgrave Province. PMC and Zeil currently have twelve exploration licence applications over tenements in the Province which with Mithril's two EL applications will give potential access to over 20,000 km² or 30% of the perspective Musgrave Province in South Australia.

LAKES OIL

Third Quarter Cashflow Report

Following a successful capital raising in the previous quarter Gippsland Offshore Petroleum Limited ("GOP") listed on the Australian Stock Exchange on 10 January 2005, and farmed into three permits in which Lakes Oil N.L. or a wholly owned subsidiary company held an interest. The permit areas are PEP 155 (Marlo Block), Vic/P40 V and Vic/P47 (west) (Gilbert Blocks).

Echidna High - 1 exploration well
(Lakes Oil Group, Operator: 100% interest)

Echidna High - 1 well was spudded on 26 February 2005 and programmed to drill to a depth of 1,500 metres to test a mapped seismic structure located some10 kilometres north-west of the Wombat discovery wells. The primary target was sands in the Strzelecki Group and secondary target in the Latrobe Group. The section intersected was affected by faulting and the top of the Latrobe and Strzelecki Groups were intersected deeper than anticipated. After minor gas shows were recorded in the Strzelecki Group at 1,591 metres, it was decided to case the well to 1,600 metres and test the section in the interval between 1,590 and 1,609 metres. No significant shows were encountered in the testing. The well continued to a total depth of 1,868 metres when electric logs were run to examine the nature of the deeper section penetrated on both sides of the fault forming the structure. Detailed interpretation of the well and seismic data are currently being conducted. The well reached total depth on 22 March 2005.

WOMBAT BLOCK
(Lakes Oil Group, Operator: 92.5% Private interests 7.5%)

Wombat - 2 well test

Wombat - 2 well was re-opened for extended gas flow-testing during drilling of the nearby Echidna High well while personnel were in the area. The well continued to flow gas to the surface for over a week before being shut-in to establish the build-up pressures in the reservoir sands. Results of the testing are currently being evaluated by Halliburton in Denver, Colorado.

TRIFON BLOCK
(Lakes Oil Group, Operator: 50% Jarden Corporation Australia Pty Ltd 50%)

Trifon - 2, North Seaspray - 3

Further evaluation continues on the results of the Trifon and North Seaspray wells and the Wombat Gas Field.

Since the end of this quarter, Lakes Oil N.L. has contracted an experienced hydraulic fracturing expert, Mr. Jim Macadam, to evaluate the economic feasibility of development of the Wombat and Trifon gas reservoirs and to oversee the fracture stimulation program on both the Wombat-3 and Trifon-2 wells. Initial evaluation on the commercial development of these wells is expected to be available in the next quarter.- Web Site

QUARTERLY REPORT FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2005

HIGHLIGHTS
• U.S. Production Commences
Ellis-1 and Ellis-2 in Oklahoma were put into production on 3 March 2005. Initial production
from both wells are from the secondary targets in the Morrow Formation. Fracturing treatment
is underway at Ellis-2 to lift the production rate.
• Ellis-3 spudded
On 25 April Antares spudded the Ellis-3 well in the section adjacent to the producing Ellis-1
well. The well is currently at a depth of 1500 feet and setting casing.
• Wilbeck-1 flows gas
Wilbeck-1 commenced on 19 January and reached total depth on 7 February, 2005. The main
objective of the well was not productive, but a production test of an upper Frio secondary
objective flowed gas and Antares is currently waiting on the operator for final test results and
recommendations for completion.
• Porters Creek reaches objective
The well spudded on 12 April 2005 and reached total depth of 9700 feet on 26 April.
Wireline logs indicate two potential gas zones that tested gas on a wireline testing tool. Plans
are to run casing and production test the lower most zone.
• Yukon wells set to commence
The rig is currently setting up on site and the well is expected to spud shortly. The second well
will be drilled immediately after the first.
• Rig contracted for additional Ellis County wells
The rig currently drilling Ellis-3 is contracted for Ellis-4, with an option to drill an additional two
wells, subject to agreement on terms and conditions with the drilling contractor.
• Sales receipts increase 128%
Cash receipts from gas and condensate sales increased significantly during the quarter, mostly
due to increases in sales volumes and pricing and timing effects.
• 9% increase in Turkish gas production
During the quarter net production from the three gas fields in Turkey was 806 MMscf (1,612
MMscf gross), up 9% on the previous quarter.
• Turkish well planned
Preparations are underway to spud an appraisal/development well in the Adatepe field. The
Adatepe-5 well is due to spud in May. - Web Site

BHP BILLITON

Exploration and Development Report

The industry is currently operating in an environment where the services and supplies necessary to execute its projects are in great demand, and as a result, delivery of projects to budget and schedule is becoming more challenging. A weakening US dollar combined with the demand for raw materials and hence significant levels of project activity are leading to labour shortages and rising input costs (such as steel, heavy machinery, fuel and other commodities). BHP Billiton continues to work with its suppliers, contractors and other stakeholders to mitigate the effect of these cost pressures where possible. We have been successful to date. However, whilst all of our projects are currently tracking in line or ahead of schedule, some will run over original Board approved budgets. - Web Site

Aurox Moves On Vanadium Project

The company has negotiated an option to purchase the Balla Balla vanadium-titanium-iron ore project located less than 10 kilometres from roads, gas and power supplies midway between Karratha and Port Hedland in the North West of Western Australia.

"This is a very advanced project which has the potential to generate significant cash flow for the company within three years," said Aurox Resources Limited Managing Director, Charles Schaus.

The project has identified resources of 75 million tonnes grading around 0.8 per cent vanadium-pentoxide with potential to readily produce 4,000 tonnes of ferro-vanadium (FeV) per annum.

"The price of ferro-vanadium has risen from US$9 per kilogram to around US$85 per kilogram over the last few years because of increased demand from steel-makers, thus Aurox is in an ideal position to develop the Balla Balla project," Mr Schaus said.

The life of the mine is expected to be at least 30 years. The agreement commences with the Option payment of $200,000 to secure an exclusive six to nine month review period prior to deciding to proceed to a Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS).- Web Site

PLACER DOME

Placer Dome Announces First Quarter 2005 Results

Vancouver, Canada: Placer Dome Inc. (NYSE, TSX, ASX: PDG) announces first quarter earnings of $31 million ($0.07 per share). Before the effect of the adoption of a new accounting policy related to accounting for projected post closure personnel termination obligations, earnings were $45 million ($0.10 per share). During the quarter, Placer Dome produced 911,000 ounces of gold at cash costs of $275 per ounce. Mine operating earnings totalled $104 million and cash from operations before changes in non-cash working capital was $99 million for the quarter.

President and CEO Peter Tomsett said Placer Dome's first quarter production was in line with expectations, with the majority of operations meeting targeted output levels. "A number of our operations delivered improvements in production and cost performance from the fourth quarter of 2004," he said. "However, cost pressures remain challenging."

Tomsett said Placer Dome's first quarter financial results showed improvement from the previous quarter, with mine operating earnings up 33% and cash from operations before changes in non-cash working capital up 50%. "We expect performance to continue to trend upwards throughout the remainder of the year." - Web Site

Sydney Gas Signs $50 Million Project Finance Facility

Sydney Gas Ltd is pleased to announce that it has executed a project finance facility of up to $50 million to accelerate production and gas sales from its Camden Gas Project and to provide for ongoing development work in respect to the Hunter and Wyong Gas Projects.

This $50 million facility is subject to conditions precedent typically found within project financing agreements, and involves bonds being listed on the Australian Stock Exchange Ltd’s Bulletin Board for wholesale debt securities. Once listed, the first tranche of $25 million will be available for immediate draw down. Chimaera Capital Ltd, a merchant bank based in Melbourne, and NM Rothschild & Sons (Australia) Ltd, are co-advisers in respect to this facility.

Sydney Gas’ Chief Executive Officer, Dr Bruce Butcher, said that, “This $50 million facility is innovative and flexible. Under it, Sydney Gas issues notes that enable “committed underwritten bonds” to be listed on the ASX and traded. These bonds carry an interest rate that is currently 9.75% per annum.”

Dr Butcher said that, “Most importantly, this facility provides Sydney Gas with significant control over the level of debt involved and the terms of its repayment.
The facility is designed to convert into equity at the sole discretion of Sydney Gas, or be repaid as a typical debt instrument.” - Web Site

Coal & Allied AGM - Chairman's address

The year 2004 saw a strong reversal in financial fortunes for Coal & Allied. The 2004 result reflected the increased demand for seaborne traded coal, greater efficiency in some key operational processes, and delivery of the early benefits from the management agreement with Rio Tinto Coal Australia.

While enjoying the financial rewards of the improvements in the global coal market that affected all coal companies in 2004, our focus was firmly on a "back to basics" approach within the mine gate - not doing different things, but rather doing things differently. Operations successfully concentrated on optimisation of mine plans and efficient use of capital assets within the constraints imposed by rail and port infrastructure. Overhead costs fell as a result of the management agreement. - Web Site

GRAVITY DIAMONDS

EXPLORATION RESUMES AT ABNER RANGE

Initial focus on ABN21 diamondiferous kimberlite discovery
28 other targets Identified nearby will also be sampled
Full follow-up program as ground conditions permit access

Gravity Diamonds Limited today announces that a helicopter-supported field program has commenced on its ABN21 diamondiferous kimberlite discovery in the Abner Range, near McArthur River in the Northern Territory of Australia. A detailed ground gravity survey and geological mapping will be carried out with the initial objective of outlining the potential shape and size of the kimberlite body to enable the company to plan more detailed test drilling and bulk sampling.

A further 28 targets within a 10km radius of the ABN21 discovery will also be mapped and sampled. Some of these were previously identified as being of particularly high priority but could not be accessed in the 2004 field season. Other targets have been identified as a result of a review and consolidation of data following the ABN21 discovery.

Analytical results from this sampling program are expected in June and will be used to prioritise the company's future exploration and guide follow-up drilling.

The ABN21 kimberlite discovery resulted from first-pass drilling of an accessible FALCON® target with 147 microdiamonds and two small macro-diamonds recovered from two shallow RC holes drilled in January. Almost all the diamonds recovered are unresorbed, colourless octahedra with flat faces and sharp edges, which are indicative of gem quality stones.

A full program of follow-up testing at Abner Range is planned for late June once ground conditions are dry enough for the main access track to the site to be re-established. This will permit mobilisation of drilling and bulk sampling equipment together with the necessary support infrastructure.

LAKES OIL

LAKES OIL TO DRILL BELLARINE IN PEP 163 VICTORIA

Lakes Oil ("LKO") advises that it has reached an agreement with Westcoast Mining Limited of Perth to drill a well to be named "Bellarine No. 1" in the onshore Otway Basin, Victoria.

The basis of this Agreement is that Westcoast will earn a 50 percent interest in PEP 163. Westcoast will earn their interest in this permit after they spend $1.2 million to drill the Bellarine No. 1 well. After this, the permit will be held on a 50/50 basis with Lakes Oil who will remain the Operator.

The well will be drilled approximately 20 kilometres from the Victorian regional city of Geelong.

Additionally Lakes Oil will grant Westcoast a six month option to earn a 33 1/3 percent interest in the adjoining permit (PEP 164) on a similar expenditure basis.

A suitable drilling rig has been located and drilling is expected to commence in approximately six to eight weeks. This well is a follow-up to the Hindhaugh Creek well drilled in 1969. That well appears to have been drilled off-structure, however it achieved an unmeasured flow of gas to surface.

The opportunity to drill the Bellarine well in PEP 163 will be an important move forward in our long term plans to approach the Otway Basin, in the same manner in which we are developing the Gippsland Basin.

FURTHER FRESH KIMBERLITIC INDICATOR MINERALS RECOVERED FROM DRILLING -

The Company is pleased to announce that over the weekend, 23-25 April 2005, it received high garnet count results from RAB Drill Holes Nam 673 and Nam 674.

Nam 673 returned 17 kimberlitic pyrope garnets and Nam 674, which was drilled 500 metres to the south east of Nam 673, returned 18 kimberlitic pyrope garnets, 3 of which are very fresh Class 4 pyrope garnets. The freshness of these garnets indicates that they have only travelled a short distance from their kimberlite source

NAM 673 and NAM 674 were drilled some 25 kms to the east of Drill Holes Nam 655, Nam 657 and Nam 669 (the results of which were announced to the market on 31 March, 18 and 21 April 2005 respectively). The distance between these two separate sets of results indicates that they have been sourced from two separate kimberlites.

Drilling is currently being conducted around Nam 669. - Web Site

Stocks made a strong move higher on Monday as a new spate of merger activity and a surprising rise in home sales restored investors' confidence in the economy and eased fears of inflation and higher interest rates.

Disappointing earnings reports spurred widespread profit taking following yesterday's huge rally while a lack of follow through buying interest also failed to close the indices in positive territory. A late-day report that N. Korea may be preparing a nuclear-weapons test sent stocks falling even further before last-minute buying efforts minimized what would have been even larger losses across the board.

Norwest Iniates Indian Plan

Norwest Energy NL has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with one of India’s National Oil Companies, Oil India Limited (OIL).
Norwest and OIL have agreed to jointly study selected exploration areas being offered in a bid round which closes at the end of May 2005.
OIL is one of Asia's oldest oil exploration and production companies. It produces around 65,000 barrels of oil per day, 175 million cubic feet of gas per day and over 50,000 tonnes of LPG annually from its Indian projects. The company historically has focused its activities in the world class basins in the northeastern part of India. In more recent years, OIL has extended its influence to other parts of India and to the world wide exploration arena.
Norwest CEO, Joe Salomon said “The association with OIL is very highly valued. OIL has extensive operating experience in India and has amassed an enormous amount of knowledge and experience in Indian basins. Norwest looks forward to working with OIL. The India Government has set itself a very short time frame in which to evaluate and award bids, with results being promised well before the end of the year.
India has enormous potential both in the short term and long term and this initiative by Norwest to establish a presence in India is the start of the “fourth leg” of our project acquisition strategy.”- Web Site

Stocks staged a strong recovery on Thursday as investors snapped up shares on unexpectedly strong earnings from companies including Nokia Corp. and Motorola Inc., and the surprising news that the New York Stock Exchange plans to merge with electronic trader Archipelago Inc.

BEMAX

Announcement in Accordance with Listing Rule 3.10A

In accordance with the requirements of Listing Rule 3.10A the Company advises that the ASX compulsorily and voluntarily restricted securities held by Sons of Gwalia Limited (Administrators Appointed) will be released from escrow in accordance with the terms of the ASX Restriction Agreement and the Merger Agreement, under which the shares were acquired, on 5 May 2005.

Sons of Gwalia Limited (Administrators Appointed) now hold only 3.31% of the Company’s shares. - Web Site

MOUNT BURGESS

DIAMOND EXPLORATION, NAMIBIA
FURTHER FRESH KIMBERLITIC INDICATOR MINERALS RECOVERED FROM DRILLING - (Listing Rule 3.1)

Further to the announcements of 31 March 2005 and 18 April 2005, which reported the recovery of very fresh kimberlitic indicator minerals from Drill Holes NAM 655 and NAM 657, the Company has received results overnight from Drill Hole NAM 669, which was drilled in the same area and contained 4 very fresh class 4 garnets. The recovery of these fresh garnets from all three RAB drill holes within the same area indicates the probable presence of a local host kimberlite. Previous loam sampling within this area has recovered a number G10 garnets and a diamond.

Drilling is currently being conducted in the area and the Company will extend the ground gravity survey to cover the palaeodrainage catchment of this area.

BASE METALS, NAMIBIA AND BOTSWANA.
GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS

The Company has the results from a regional Induced Polarisation (IP) survey recently conducted over seven known silver, lead, zinc and copper soil geochemical anomalies, on the Company's adjoining tenements in both Namibia and Botswana. The initial surveys consisted of 21 single dipole to dipole lines, followed up with one gradient array survey where a better understanding of the conductor was required.

Six out of seven surveys conducted have returned significant zones of IP response.

Five IP lines were surveyed over the partially drilled out Kihabe silver, lead, zinc, copper and vanadium 2.4 km-long mineralised zone in Botswana. Seven IP lines were surveyed over what is known as the Gossan Area and its possible extensions, in Botswana. The Gossan Area has previously returned rock chip grades of 12.4% lead, 3.9% zinc, 1.6% vanadium and 102 g/t silver.

An intense open-ended 400 metre IP anomaly over a silver, lead, zinc, copper soil geochemical target was delineated in Namibia and has been further defined by a Gradient Array Survey. (See Figure attached.) Mapping indicates this is probably an extension of the Botswana mineralisation. This anomaly is situated to the east of recent drilling.

Mapping and further soil sampling are currently being undertaken to assist in designing proposed drill programmes. Drilling will proceed once this is complete. - Web Site

MITHRIL

Talia Hill Joint Venture; Exploration Licence 2842

The Board of Mithril Resources Ltd (the company) advises that BHP Billiton has agreed to the company's drilling program to test a coincident geophysical and geochemical target at the Talia Hill Project.

The Company is exploring for nickel sulphide mineralisation associated with ultramafic rocks within the Harris Greenstone Belt (Gawler Craton) in South Australia. The Harris Greenstone Belt is similar to the Norseman-Wiluna Belt of Western Australia, which hosts numerous nickel sulphide deposits.

Exploration by Mithril at the Mullina Prospect has revealed elevated levels of nickel and associated pathfinder elements in the top 40 metres of variably weathered Harris Komatiite (ultramafic sequence). Air core drilling, completed in 2004 as part of the South Australia PACE initiative, demonstrated that geochemical enrichment increases in both tenor and thickness near the northern margin of the Harris Komatiite in the vicinity of holes THRC29 and 26 (including 31metres @ 0.4% nickel from 6 metres in THRC029 and 33 metres @ 0.45% nickel from 3 metres in THRC026).

A ground electromagnetic geophysical survey completed in early March 2005 over the anomalous zone identified a significant bedrock conductive body. This conductor is interpreted to be at least 400 metres in strike extent, sub vertical, and 70 metres below surface with a moderate easterly plunge component.

A combined percussion and diamond drilling program comprising 1200 metres will be completed to test the conductive body and its plunge component.

BHP Billiton is earning 52% interest through the expenditure of $2 million, and may elect to earn up to 82% through an additional expenditure of $3 million. - Web Site

ANTARES ENERGY DRILLING UPDATE

PORTER’S CREEK
Porter’s Creek has now reached a total depth of 6,077 feet after five days of incident-free drilling and will soon set intermediate casing.
Gas shows were noted on the mudlog around 5,100 feet, which correlates to the Frio Formation.
The drilling of the well is expected to reach a target depth of approximately 10,000 feet, with testing to follow thereafter.
Porter’s Creek has an estimated reserve potential of 11-22 BCF of gas and 0.8-1.5 million bbls of condensate. Through the drilling of this well, Antares will earn its 25% working interest.
This well has three objectives ranging in depth from 5,100 feet to 9,700 feet and will test the Yegua and Frio Formations. The target is a structural/stratigraphic trap defined by 3D seismic.

WILBECK-1
The testing of Wilbeck-1 continues in the pursuit of a commercial outcome. Studies are being conducted to evaluate producing from this well.
We are awaiting the results of these studies and a recommendation from the operator.
Wilbeck-1 is an exploration well in Wharton County, Texas in which Antares has a 30% interest. The well is operated by Crawford Energy of Houston, Texas.

ELLIS-3
The drilling rig is currently being set up on the prepared site, with the expectation of spudding next week. - Web Site

First quarter 2005 operations review

Production of most principal commodities was significantly above the comparative period of 2004.

• Operations performed well in the first quarter, generally operating at, or near, capacity in order to take advantage of strong markets.

• Record first quarter iron ore production at Hamersley Iron was 18 per cent above the weather affected first quarter of 2004. Production of both copper and gold from Grasberg was also significantly higher than the comparative period of 2004 when resources were focused on recovery from the 2003 material slippage.

• New projects contributed to volume growth. Production of coking coal from Hail Creek was higher than the first and fourth quarters of 2004. Production from the new Comalco Alumina Refinery continued to grow following start up in the fourth quarter of 2004.

• Strong markets continued to provide opportunities for disposal of non core assets. The sale of Rio Tinto's interest in the Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Income Fund realised $130 million. The transaction has no effect on Rio Tinto's 59 per cent interest in IOC.

• Strong demand led to increased vessel queues at Australian ports, and some higher input costs. - Web Site

MACMIN SILVER

Press Release & Mailout to Shareholders

MACMIN TO OPEN AUSTRALIAN DEDICATED SILVER MINE THIS YEAR

Highly leveraged to silver price

Macmin Silver Ltd plans to bring a new silver mine into production in southern Queensland within six months.

The new mine, Macmin's first, is being developed at Twin Hills near the town of Texas, approximately 250kms south-west of Brisbane.

In a Project Update issued today, Macmin Executive Chairman Bob McNeil said that the mine start-up would coincide with an expected further increase in the world silver price.

Bob McNeil also commented: "While production costs are expected to make the operation consistently profitable at today's silver price, the mine is highly leveraged to the price.

Many analysts are forecasting a substantial rise in the price of silver within the next year. As a dedicated, single metal silver mine, Twin Hills has exceptional leverage to rising prices.

mine construction is 40% complete
production of silver powder (98.5% silver) by a leaching and electrowinning process will commence in late 2005 at the rate of 2.5 million ounces (Moz) of contained silver a year
processing plant capacity of 3.5 Moz will allow for rapid expansion in a rising silver market
Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources total 55 Moz silver equivalent
unit production costs are estimated to average A$5.80 oz for the first three years
while revenue would total some $40 million in the first three years at the current silver price of approximately A$10, revenues and margins are expected to increase significantly with the forecast price rise. Every one dollar increase in the silver price will add $2.5M to $3M to Macmin's bottom line. The silver price could easily spike to A$15 to A$25 or higher in the near future.
simple, relatively easy and low cost mining/processing (open pit and heap leach)
close to transport, sealed roads and infrastructure at the town of Texas.

Within six months, Twin Hills will lift Macmin from explorer into the ranks of substantial silver producer that is highly leveraged to the expected rise in the silver price.

We have excellent potential to extend and expand production based on the Project's resources and the prospectivity of the exploration permits we hold covering 300 square kilometres in the Texas district.

Drilling at Macmin's nearby Tuliambi copper-silver Prospect has produced intersections such as 5m @ 6% copper, 328g/t silver and 3.4% zinc. This could develop with further drilling into a silver/copper resource that could be developed at a later date. Drilling at Mt Gunyan has also given intersections to 33m @ 339g/t silver."

Mr McNeil will make a series of presentations around Australia on the outlook for silver and Macmin's Twin Hills Project - Gold Coast 27 April, Brisbane 27 April, Sydney 3 May, Melbourne 10 May, Adelaide 17 May and Perth 18 May. Those wishing to obtain more information or attend should register by telephoning Judy Bogie on (07) 5592 2274 or email to jbogie@macmin.com.au

MOUNT BURGESS

High Garnet Count from Drill Hole NAM 657
Tsumkwe Diamond Exploration Project, Namibia

Last Friday, 15^th April 2005, the Company reported that two discrete gravity anomalies had been delineated from a recently completed ground gravity programme conducted to search for the kimberlite source to some very fresh kimberlite indicator minerals obtained from Drill Hole NAM 655.

Over the weekend, 15-17 April a high count of 35 kimberlitic pyrope garnets was recovered from Drill Hole NAM 657; of these 8 have been classified as very fresh Class 4 garnets, further indicating the presence of a kimberlite source within close proximity.

NAM 657 is located 2.5 kms south of the eastern gravity anomaly that was reported on last Friday (refer to Stock Exchange Announcement 15 April 2005), 4km SSE of NAM 655 and was drilled in an area where previous loam sampling has recovered a number of G10 garnets and a diamond.

A drill-rig is currently being mobilised to this area.

PLATINUM AUSTRALIA

PLATINUM AUSTRALIA AND AFRICAN RAINBOW MINERALS PLATINUM SIGN FORMAL
KALAHARI PLATINUM PROJECT JOINT VENTURE AGREEMENT

KEY POINTS

Platinum Australia Limited (ASX: PLA) is pleased to announce that it has signed the formal Joint Venture Agreement with African Rainbow Minerals Platinum (Proprietary) Limited (“ARMplatinum”) to acquire up to 49% of the Kalahari Platinum (“Kalplats”) Platinum Group Metals (“PGM”) Project located 300 km west of Johannesburg in South Africa, see Figure 1. The detailed formal agreement replaces the Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) signed with ARMplatinum in August 2004 and covers all commercial and technical aspects of the project.

Kalplats is an advanced exploration project where drilling to date has defined a resource of 3.4 million ounces of 3E PGM (platinum + palladium + gold), including a high grade resource of 1.4 million ounces 3E PGM at a grade of 3.6 g/t 3E PGM.

The Joint Venture Agreement provides for PLA to earn its interest in the project by completing a Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”) including further drilling and providing the right for the project to use the Panton metallurgical process (“Panton Process”). PLA intends to commence on ground activities as soon as the new order Prospecting Right is issued, and has recently completed a detailed aerial geophysical survey over the project area.

Platinum Australia Limited to Acquire Second Advanced PGM Project in South Africa

Key Points

Platinum Australia Limited (ASX: PLA) is pleased to announce that it has signed a Heads of Agreement to acquire a majority interest in the Smokey Hills PGM Project in the eastern limb of South Africa’s Bushveld Complex. The project is up dip and immediately adjacent to the ARM Platinum operated Modikwa platinum mine (Figures 1 & 2).
The project area has well exposed outcrops of the platinum bearing UG2 reef on two adjacent hills.
Sampling of the reef outcrops by PLA gave an average assay of 8.8 g/t 4E PGM (platinum + palladium + rhodium + gold) (Table 1). The shallow dip of the reef and the favourable topography would allow a significant portion of the reef to be mined in a shallow open cut (Figures 3 & 4)
Based on mapping of the six (6) kilometres of outcropping UG2 reef channel sampling by PLA over three and half (3.5) kilometres (Figure 3 and Table 1) and assuming reef continuity under cover, PLA believes there is a target of up to 1 million ounces of 4E PGM in the Smokey Hills project area. Systematic shallow drilling will be required to test this target.
Subject to a Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”), PLA believes that a target of this size has the potential to produce approximately 75,000 ounces 4E PGM per year. - Web Site

Tsumkwe Diamond Exploration Project, Namibia

Following the announcement to the Australian Stock Exchange on 31st March 2005, in which the Company reported the recovery of three very fresh (Class 4) pyrope garnets from Drill Hole Nam 655, a nine square kilometre ground gravity programme has now been completed in this area, in the search for a kimberlite source.

Two discrete gravity low anomalies, coincident with magnetic high anomalies, have been delineated; one 1.6 km SW of Drill Hole Nam 655 and the other 1 km SSE of Drill Hole Nam 655. (See Attachment)

Previous loam sampling within a radius of 2.5 km east of the area covered by this gravity programme has produced a number of G10 garnets and a diamond.

Drilling is currently being conducted for base metals on an anomaly about 60 km SE of this area generated from an Inverse Polarisation (I.P.) programme. When this drilling has been completed the rig will be mobilised to the above two targets.... - Web Site

5.63 g/t Gold + 117 g/t Silver + 19.0% Zinc + 8.9% Lead + 0.9% Copper Drilled in Hole WD 009, Wart Hill Prospect, Tasmania

Assays for diamond core drill holes WD 008 and 009 have been returned and are tabulated below. The significantly mineralised interval in hole WD009 is 7m wide and contains 1.81 g/t gold + 55.6 g/t Ag + 6.16% Zn + 3.33% Pb + 0.22% Cu from 197m downhole. The interval also contains a very high grade internal zone of 1m of 5.63 g/t gold + 117 g/t silver + 19.0 % zinc + 8.9 % lead + 0.88% copper.

Hole ID	Interval (m)	Au g/t	Ag g/t	Zn %	Pb %	Cu %	From (m)

Managing Director Peter McNeil noted: "WD 009 is an excellent result and we will probably target the vicinity further with the next drill hole, attempting to vector towards the stronger mineralisation. The continuity of the base/ precious metal horizon has been documented to +270m down plunge and this intercept shows the mineralisation potential we hope to further document".........

RIO TINTO

Annual General Meeting

Rio Tinto chairman Paul Skinner told shareholders today that 2004 had been a record year for the company.

"Adjusted earnings in 2004 were a record US$2.2 billion underlining the quality of our asset portfolio which has been developed over many years on the basis of a long term commitment to shareholder value."

The company has increased its dividend by 20 per cent to 77 US cents per share, reflecting the Board's confidence in the company's future growth prospects.

Mr Skinner commented that continuing underlying growth in demand is expected in 2005 in Rio Tinto's markets and the company has a substantial investment programme under way.

The chairman said during 2004 he had visited many of the Group's operating locations.

"I have been impressed not only with the scale and complexity of the operations themselves but also with the skill and commitment of our management and people."

Chief executi ve Leigh Clifford said Rio Tinto was benefiting from a very strong business environment as developing countries, especially China, increased demand for metals and minerals, and mature economies, including the US, enjoyed relatively solid economic growth.

"While we operate in a rapidly changing environment, I believe we are alert to the challenges and have the team capable of responding to them all. We have many options for investing in our future growth," he declared. - Web Site

Nickel production is on track to meet 2005 forecasts although scheduled lower grades at Mt Keith and Leinster reduced nickel-in-concentrate output. Metal production was also slightly lower as a result of statutory maintenance and external gas supply interruptions at the Kwinana refinery.

Fertilizer production was up again in the March quarter continuing a steady increase in the proportion of mono-ammonium phosphate (MAP) produced.

Excellent progress was made in our business development activities.

Growing confidence in the viability of an expanded operation at Olympic Dam led to the commitment of a further $90 million towards the feasibility study. The total estimated resource was also further increased to 3.98 billion tonnes. Open pit was selected as the preferred option for further assessment in the study which remains on track for early 2006 completion.

High-grade gold mineralisation was intersected at our Karlawinda Bore project in WA. This represents a new discovery of concealed gold mineralisation in the region.

After a good start to the year we are on track to achieve the 2005 forecasts. .... - Web Site

Potential Major Extension to Harrods Gold Zone at Wilthorpe

As foreshadowed in Meteoric’s 28 February 2005 release, a 1,300m, 11-hole RC and diamond drilling programme has been completed at the Harrods prospect. The first two core holes were drilled east-west and confirmed that the quartz veins at Harrods strike 060°-070° and dip vertically. The subsequent holes were drilled north-south and confirmed the presence of numerous narrow quartz veins, some with visible gold, in a sheeted vein array. Whilst the mineralised envelope trends in a northerly direction, the veins within the envelope trend ENE which was previously unrecognised. Diamond core from the drill programme is currently being cut and 4m composites from the RC drilling have been forwarded for assay with results awaited. The results of the recent northsouth drilling are anticipated to significantly increase the understanding of the mineralisation controls at Harrods.

The recognition of the ENE geometry of the sheeted vein mineralisation led to a reinterpretation of the early geochemical sampling results over Harrods. This review identified a major and previously unrecognized extension to the Harrods geochemical anomaly to the south east as shown in the map below. The geochemical extension is particularly significant when viewed in relation to the ENE trending veins at Harrods. - Web Site

Norwest Adds Early Drilling Project to Appalachian Basin Portfolio

Norwest Energy NL has reached agreement with Tennessee based gas producer Miller Petroleum Inc (Miller) to jointly develop an approximate 10,400 acre area located in Campbell County, in the heart of Tennessee's prolific and hydrocarbon-rich Appalachian Basin.

The leased areas, referred to as the Koppers North and Cardin leases, form a contiguous block located directly south of the leading edge of the Pine Mountain Thrust. This trend was identified by Norwest and its partner Golden Triangle Energy (GTE) as one of the most highly prospective in the Basin, and the agreement places Norwest firmly within one of its preferred areas. The thrusting has produced concentrated fracturing and a substantially thickened Devonian Shale target zone, thus increasing the capability of the reservoir to flow gas.

The target depth is around 3,000 feet and the drilling success rate is expected to be close to 100%. NASDAQ listed Miller has secured drilling rigs and plan to commence drilling within the next few weeks.

Under the agreement Norwest and GTE will together fund the initial five wells. Once the production results from these wells are known, Norwest and GTE can elect to fund a second batch of five wells, followed by another 10 wells. At the end of this 20 well program Norwest will have earned a 37.5% interest in the production from each well and the 40 acre area surrounding each well, along with an option to drill additional wells. - Web Site

TASGOLD

ZINC / LEAD / SILVER MASSIVE SULPHIDES DRILLED AT WART HILL TO +270 METRES KNOWN EXTENT DOWN PLUNGE

SUMMARY

TasGold's summer drilling program at the Wart Hill Prospect, SMRV Project, SW Tasmania, Australia, has now completed a total of 13 holes for 1,883.8m.

Managing Director Peter McNeil noted: "TasGold is very pleased to report that it's 2005 drilling program has defined an extensive base/precious metal mineralised horizon with sporadic high-grades, that shows the prospect has excellent potential for a major deposit to be discovered. The continuity of base/precious metal mineralisation has now been documented by drilling over a +270m distance down the plunge of the host horizon, effectively from surface".

"High-grade massive sulphides have been intersected in 6 of the 13 holes drilled this year, normally in relatively narrow intervals. In addition, moderate and lower grade semi-massive and disseminated sulphides have been noted in a total of 10 of the 13 holes, with intersection widths up to 13.4m. The best assays (excluding WD001 and WD002, which was reported in a release to the ASX on 3/2/2005) include composited 1m interval results to 108 g/t silver, 4.6% zinc, 3.3% lead and 0.3g/t gold." Results are still awaited for the last 4 of significant sulphide intervals and these will be reported in the future as they are received................

NEW ORE BLOCKS IDENTIFIED at CINABRIO

A recently completed 2,262 metre reverse circulation drilling programme at SMC’s Cinabrio mine in Chile has produced a number of wide economic-grade intersections in 3 new blocks.

One block was found immediately adjacent to the current mining block, Block 1.
Significantly, two other separate and previously undeveloped blocks were also discovered.
The positive drilling results confirm the company’s geological model that predicted the Cinabrio lease contains a number of other ore blocks. The new discoveries will result in a significant upgrade to the company’s resource inventory in Chile. Until the JORC resource statement is completed the company cannot specify the quantum of the increase.
SMC is currently upgrading its flotation plant at Punitaqui to 1500 tonnes per day from its current capacity of 1000 tonnes per day.

The company’s current mining operations are based solely on JORC resources calculated on Block 1 between surface and the 400 RL. Detailed surface mapping of the Cinabrio property by the company’s geologists indicated that faulting has broken up the potential ore zone into eight blocks (blocks 0 through 7)...........

BEMAX

New Resource Discovery in the Murray Basin

Bemax is pleased to announce discovery of the Campaspe deposit in the Northern Murray Basin. An Inferred resource has been estimated at 110Mt 4.26% HM translating into 4.7 Mt of HM.

This largely unexplored area, located just 45km to the north of Bemax's 7.6 Mt HM Prungle Project, is now considered highly prospective by the Company. The geology of the area is favourable for development, with the Campaspe deposit displaying the same characteristics of the Pooncarie Project such as low slimes and induration and thick intercepts of mineralisation.

Managing Director Mr Tony Shirfan said ‘in addition to development and construction of the Pooncarie Project, we have continued to run a focused and well funded exploration program in the Murray Basin to add to Bemax's present 61.9 Mt HM inventory in that region. The discovery of the Campaspe deposit is a rewarding result of this program'.

A total of five drill lines have been drilled across Campaspe at a drilling density of 40m across high grade beach style mineralisation and 80m across lower grade dunal style mineralisation. Drill lines are spaced between 1.5 and 3 kilometres apart. Current drilling indicates the deposit is over 9km long and over 400m wide.

Initial mineralogy of Campaspe shows Rutile 12%, Zircon 18% and Ilmenite 62%. Further mineralogical analysis is currently in progress. ....... - Web Site

Third Quarter Activities Report

highlights of the quarter

Marengo to focus attention on Pacific Rim mineral systems by securing exciting new copper and gold projects in Papua New Guinea (“PNG”).
Marengo has farmed into a joint venture in PNG over a granted exploration licence (1,163km2) which includes the high profile Yandera Porphyry Copper Project, where previous diamond drilling has intersected significant copper values with molybdenum and gold credits, such as:
- 468 metres @ 0.65% Cu, 206 ppm Mo, 0.19 g/t Au
- 294 metres @ 0.49% Cu, 40 ppm Mo, 0.45 g/t Au
- 150 metres @ 0.87% Cu, 289 ppm Mo, 0.21 g/t Au
  
  In addition, the licence area contains a number of other prospects where limited exploration has identified copper, gold and molybdenum mineralisation.
Marengo has lodged an application for an exploration licence covering some 157km2 on Goodenough Island, PNG (Bolubolu Project) where previous exploration produced trench sample results including;
- 39 metres @ 2.1g/t Au (incl. 6 metres @ 11.9g/t Au)
- 8 metres @ 4.9g/t Au (incl. 4 metres @ 6.1 g/t Au)
  
  This project has not been drill tested.
Massive high grade magnetite (iron) mineralisation with associated ilmenite (titanium) discovered in drilling at the 100% owned Minigwal Project (Western Australia).
Plans to drill test the highly prospective 100% owned Bowgan Project (Northern Territory) for uranium–gold mineralisation and to seek a farm-in partner to further explore the project’s demonstrated diamond potential.
New subsidiary, Marengo Mining (PNG) Limited formed to operate PNG assets.
Cash balance of A$1.8M at quarter end, with 33.25M shares on issue. - Web Site

Essential Petroleum Farms into PEL 27 and Onshore Otway Basin Penola Trough Play

Essential Petroleum Resources is pleased to announce that it has agreed to acquire a 20% interest
in petroleum exploration licence PEL 27 in the Otway Basin from Beach Petroleum Limited.

PEL 27 covers 240 square kilometres of the north western flank of the Penola Trough, a proven
petroleum system. PEL 27 is north west and updip of the adjacent Katnook, Haselgrove and
Ladbroke Grove gas fields and is ideally positioned to trap oil and gas migrating northwards out of
the trough. The permit is particularly prospective for oil as prospects within the permit Sawpit 1
recovered oil and Killanoola DW 1 flowed oil to the surface.

Exploration in PEL 27 will commence with the drilling of the Cowrie prospect. Cowrie is a robust
structure similar in style to the Killanoola oil discovery; it offers improved reservoir and oil quality, and an excellent seal. Cowrie 1 is expected to be drilled between May and September this year as part of a forthcoming multi-operator drilling program in the Otway Basin.

Essential Petroleum believes Cowrie may contain up to 4 million barrels of recoverable oil.
Furthermore, a discovery at Cowrie will confirm the Sawpit Sandstone as an exciting new target and
provide Essential Petroleum with immediate other opportunities along the northern flank of the
Penola Trough. - Web Site

GEODYNAMICS

Habanero #2 – Geothermal Flow Commenced!

Geodynamics announces that clean-up flow operations commenced on 31 March, 2005. Habanero #2 intermittently flowed vigorously through a 0.3 inch choke. Flow had to be shut-in from time to time, to ensure that the well casing and well head would heat up slowly. Intermittent flow between 31 March and 3 April 2005 increased the temperature of the well head to 95°C. Pressure data for Habanero #1 show that each intermittent flow coincided with a temporary pressure drop in Habanero #1, a clear indication of hydraulic connection between the two deep wells.

A total of 500 barrels (80,000 litres, approximately equivalent to one well bore volume), has been produced to date. The maximum flow rate through the 0.3 inch choke was in excess of 6 litres/sec. After most of the heavy brine was cleaned from the well, well head pressures returned to 5000psi (360 bar).

Further well clean-up flow will increase the temperature of the well head to over 200°C. To manage this, the full production system (automatic choke, and steam separator), are to be rigged up to manage steam flow. It is expected that clean-up flow operations will be completed by Saturday 9 April, 2005.

The slick line unit operations to determine the actual depth of the sunk plug are scheduled to commence on Sunday 10 April 2005.- Web Site

Marloo-1, Timor Sea Australia - Weekly Drilling Report

Current Operation:
Marloo-1 is currently at 1,259 metres and, after setting the 9 5/8” casing at 1,247 metres, is preparing to drill ahead in the 8.5” hole section.

Talbot-1 and Talbot-2 Abandonments
As previously announced Hardman elected to plug and abandon Talbot-1 and Talbot-2 as a
commitment to the Joint Authority (Northern Territory and Federal Government) in
Retention Licence AC/RL1 (Hardman 100%). Hardman’s studies of development options for
the Talbot field have shown that these old wells would not be optimally located for
production and any future development would require completely new wells. It is therefore
in line with responsible environmental management that the well-heads should be removed
and the site left clean.
The Talbot-1 and Talbot-2 abandonments were successfully completed at 22.00 hrs CST on
31 March.- Web Site

PEPINNINI MINERALS

SUCCESSFUL IPO CLOSES ON SCHEDULE

PepinNini Minerals Limited has closed its IPO on schedule raising more than $4 million. The Company’s Listing Application is currently being processed and it is anticipated that PepinNini shares will list on the ASX for the first time within the next two weeks with the ASX code of PNN.

The Managing Director of PepinNini Minerals, Mr Norman Kennedy, said today “The strong interest from investors in regard to our IPO is encouraging and we are pleased that the exciting potential of our exploration targets has been recognised. Over the coming months PepinNini will investigate a number of priority drilling targets with the potential to produce discoveries of world class mineral deposits similar in style to the giant Voisey’s Bay nickel deposit in Canada and the Olympic Dam copper/gold/uranium deposit in South Australia”.

With the recent increase in the price of uranium, the apparent imbalance between supply and demand and the improving sentiment towards this alternate greenhouse friendly source of energy, it is the Company’s intention to commission an independent study to assess the economic significance of the Crocker Well Uranium Field and other uranium prospects located in it’s Curnamona Province tenements.

A large amount of data was produced from exploration conducted by the SA Mines Department and private company exploration between 1951 and 1978 with a resource of >10 million tonnes grading 0.5 kg/t U3O8 being reported to a depth of 100 metres. Approximately 1,000 boreholes were drilled to assess the uranium prospect and seven shafts were sunk to obtain bulk samples. Copper and gold has also been mined from the area. A resource of 67,000 tonnes grading 3.7kg/t U3O8 has been estimated for the Mt Victoria mine located approximately 4 kilometres to the north of the Crocker Well Uranium Field.

PepinNini is also pleased to announce that Primary Industries and Resources South Australia (PIRSA) have advertised that they propose to grant an exploration licence to PepinNini for application area 116/96 in the Musgrave Province of South Australia. Following the completion of statutory requirements the Company will immediately embark on a drilling program to investigate two high priority drilling targets with potential for large Voisey’s Bay style nickel mineralisation. Funding of up to $158,125 has been awarded for the proposed drilling program under the South Australian Government’s PACE Initiative.

The Company also intends to commence drilling at its Curnamona Province tenements targeting copper/gold prospects similar to that currently being investigated by Havilah Resources NL at Kalkaroo.
A major gravity feature of size and amplitude similar to the world class Olympic Dam copper/gold/uranium deposit will also be investigated by drilling. Complex magnetic anomalies (coincident and peripheral to the gravity feature) as well as major structural features, favourable lithologies, surface geochemical results (up to 5.65% Cu) and the occurrence of Hiltaba Suite equivalent granites support the potential of this target to contain mineralisation similar to that found at Olympic Dam.- Web Site

SUMMARY - US MARKET:

Strong growth in the service sector and record high oil prices sent stocks sharply lower Friday on renewed inflation fears. A weaker-than-expected job creation report, which initially gave investors hope that economic growth would remain manageable, was ultimately ignored, and stocks finished mostly lower for the fourth straight week.

Recovery of Very Fresh Kimberlite Indicator Minerals
Tsumkwe Diamond Project - Namibia

Further to our announcement of 1 March 2005 in which the Company reported the recovery of 22 fresh garnets from Drill Hole Nam 665, drill samples from another hole, within the same area have also returned very encouraging results.

Nam 655 contained 3 very fresh (Class 4) pyrope garnets together with 2 x Class 5 and 1 x Class 6 pyrope garnets. The 3 Class 4 pyrope garnets suggest that there is a kimberlite source within very close proximity.

This result is from the western portion of the Company's project area, within 2.5 km of a previously recovered diamond and also in an area where a significant number of G10 garnets have been recovered from loam sampling.

A gravity survey is currently being conducted in this area and the drill rig will be mobilised to the area once it has completed an initial drilling programme on an Inverse Polarisation (IP) anomaly at the Company's base metals prospect further to the east.

Latest drilling results from the company’s Lucky Break nickel project.

The 51 holes drilled provided assay results showing excellent nickel intercepts of up to 25m ( 0m to 25m) @ 2.47 % nickel, with a measured and indicated resource calculation planned to be completed by mid-late April. The Lucky Break nickel project has the potential to generate sales to the nearby Yabulu Nickel Refinery (which imports laterite ores) at Townsville – only 140km away via sealed road.

These results are a further indication of the quality of projects in the Metallica stable, which includes the company flagship, North Queensland Nickel Cobalt (NORNICO)- Heap Leach Nickel project & BHP Billiton exploration JV, and key projects in bauxite, coal, along with precious metals, scandium and industrial mineral exploration projects. - Web Site
