WALL STREET

Wall Street capped a week of big gains with modest moves Friday as investors grappled with surging energy prices that overshadowed news of a surprise increase in home construction.

But despite the uneasiness over energy prices, stocks posted strong gains for the week. The broader market, as measured by the Standard & Poor's 500 index, rose 2.7 percent for the week. The S&P 500 index ticked up 1.78, or 0.13 percent, to 1,425.35 on Friday.

The Dow Jones industrial average slipped 5.86, or 0.05 percent, Friday, closing at 12,986.80. For the week, the Dow rose 1.89 percent.

The Nasdaq composite index fell 4.88, or 0.19 percent, to 2,528.85 Friday, but still jumped 3.41 percent for the week. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq remain at five-month highs.

Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by about 8 to 7 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came to 1.31 billion shares compared with 1.20 billion shares Thursday.

Light, sweet crude rose $2.17 to settle at a record close of $126.29 per barrel ahead of the start of the summer driving season and following supply disruptions in China. Oil held to gains even after Saudi Arabia's Oil Minister said the country boosted production by 300,000 barrels a day last week in response to requests from customers.
Goldman boosted its price estimate for the second half of this year to $141 a barrel, from $107, citing supply constraints.
And the US Energy Department said it would stop adding to the nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve for six months starting July 1.

Zinc rose in London, heading for the biggest weekly gain since February, as the biggest earthquake in nearly six decades in China hit output in the world's biggest producer. Aluminum also climbed. Early reports indicate at least one aluminum smelter was disrupted by the earthquake, while analysts anticipate many zinc mines will stay closed while authorities assess damage to underground tunnels.

Gold rose the most in 10 weeks as energy costs surged to a record and the US dollar weakened, boosting the appeal of the precious metal as a hedge against inflation. Silver also gained.

DOIR awards SPA 7/04-5 to Merlin West Pty Ltd

Central Petroleum Limited's (CTP-Central) wholly owned subsidiary, Merlin West Pty Ltd has been awarded Special Prospecting Authority (SPA) 7/04-5 covering 30,000 km2 of the western Amadeus Basin for the purposes of an aerogravity survey. The SPA will have valid tenure until the 15th November 2008. Central has already carried out a sacred site survey of the SPA.

The aerogravity results will be synthesized with existing modern aeromagnetics to enable an assessment by Central as to which parts of the area will be applied for in exploration licences.

A Technical Note on the area to be released shortly will provide an updated assessment of the structures and the geology of the area. Because of the remoteness of the area and early assessments of its prospectivity and geology, Central has modeled 50 km2 as being the minimum size of aerial closure in prospects to be captured by the combined aeromagnetic and aerogravity data.

Halokinetics (movement and structures associated with salt domes) are thought to be features of the geology in this area with important implications for prospectivity. - Web Site

WALL STREET

The stock market notched its second straight daily advance Thursday, with investors assuaged by a steadying in oil prices and some better-than-expected economic data. The Philadelphia Federal Reserve said regional manufacturing activity is contracting in May at a much slower pace than in April, while major companies including General Electric Co. and CBS Corp. were making deals.

In other economic data, the Fed said nationwide industrial output sank for the second straight month in April by 0.7 percent, due to big cutbacks in the automotive and other manufacturing industries. The drop was more than double analysts' average prediction.

Advancing issues led decliners by more than 2 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange. Consolidated volume amounted to 3.73 billion shares, down from 3.86 billion shares traded Wednesday.

Crude oil was little changed after an Energy Department report showed that natural gas supplies rose and the U.S. Congress approved legislation that strengthens oversight of electronic energy trading.

Gold rose for the first time this week on speculation higher energy costs and a weaker US dollar will boost demand for the precious metal as a hedge against inflation. Silver also gained.

ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI TO RETAIN INTERESTS IN MORILA GOLD MINE, MALI

AngloGold Ashanti has terminated the process related to its proposed sale of its interests in Morila Limited. This is due to the fact that no proposals were received which met the company's value criteria for such a sale.

This means that AngloGold Ashanti will remain a joint venture partner in Morila Limited, together with Randgold Resources Limited and consequently, through Morila Limited, a joint venture partner together with the Government of Mali in Morila SA. Randgold Resources will continue as the operator of Morila Gold Mine.

AngloGold Ashanti looks forward to working together with Randgold Resources and the Government of Mali, to further the success of the Morila Gold Mine. - Web Site

Shareholder Update on AWE Merger Proposal

From the Managing Director

As the Chairman has outlined, the Boards of ARC and AWE have recently announced they have unanimously agreed to merge the two companies and to create a new company, Buru Energy Limited, via a demerger.

As you know, ARC has been very active in considering and pursuing opportunities that it believes are in the best interests of shareholders. In this case, we believe the offer AWE is putting to ARC shareholders and the strategic rationale for combining the two companies are compelling.

In creating Australia's leading mid-tier oil and gas company, we are combining high quality portfolios of Australasian offshore and onshore production assets with capacity for signifi cant additional growth.

If the merger and demerger are approved, ARC shareholders will receive cash, shares in AWE and shares in Buru Energy Limited, a new company that will hold all of ARC's Canning Basin assets. By becoming a shareholder in the enlarged AWE, you will have increased exposure to the Perth Basin and Bass Basin, as well as exposure to New Zealand's Tui oilfi eld - a strongly producing oil asset with unhedged exposure to the current oil price. You will continue to share in the upside of both the ARC and AWE portfolios, as well as benefi ting from increased diversifi cation and scale in an increasingly competitive environment.

The flexible structure of the merger consideration gives ARC shareholders the option to increase the amount of cash they receive if they wish to monetise part of their holding. Additionally, the proposal will enable shareholders to continue to participate in ARC's exploration program in the Canning Basin through Buru Energy. All ARC shareholders will automatically receive shares in Buru Energy when the demerger is completed.

A detailed explanation of the consideration for the merger and demerger is set out in this letter. Further information can be found on our website, www.arcenergy.com.au, which has a separate section containing information relevant to the merger and the demerger and a shareholder question section.

We look forward to receiving your support for the proposal which we believe gives shareholders a compelling consideration for their ARC shares.- Web Site

CENTRAL PETROLEUM

New Leads Southern Amadeus Basin

Results of new seismic shot in the 2008 exploration programme show great encouragement to dramatically expand the Central Petroleum Limited's (CTP-Central) portfolio of prospects and leads in the southern Amadeus Basin.

Central's 2008 drilling programme is poised to start within a fortnight or so as planned with the Blamore 1 well followed by a Coal Bed Methane well (CBM) and the Simpson 1 well in the Pedirka Basin. Drilling on a third water bore for water to complete road access preparation over the final stage of the Blamore track is well advanced. Two additional CBM wells are also planned in the Pedirka. These Pedirka Basin wells are addressing up to 260 Mmbbls of undiscovered oil initially in place (UOIIP) and the CBM well is the first in a series planned to flow test possible CBM recoverable resources of 34-70 TCFG in the Permian and Triassic coals known to be distributed through the Pedirka Basin by previous drilling and regional seismic.

The following technical note however, focuses on the increased potential of the southern Amadeus Basin, where this year, Central plans to drill the Mt Kitty (prospective recoverable resources up to 1.7 TCFG with condensate and Helium credits) and Ooraminna (prospective recoverable resources of up to 0.7 TCFG) wells in Joint Venture with He Nuclear Limited (HEN) and Petroleum Exploration Australia Limited (PXA) respectively. - Web Site

Following the release of encouraging maiden resources containing 6.4Mt of heavy minerals (ASX release 8 May 2008), Image Resources has commissioned a scoping study to identify options for development and mining at its North Perth Basin project. It is anticipated the study will be completed by the end of July.

The resources comprise both shallow higher grade deposits amenable to dry mining and thicker, larger deposits amenable to low cost dredging.

Comparisons with existing dry mining and dredge operations are pertinent to understanding the significance of these initial resources as follows:......... - Web Site

Approach from Xstrata rejected by Indophil

Indophil Resources NL (ASX: IRN) has been informed that Xstrata Copper, the copper focussed commodity business unit of Xstrata plc ("Xstrata") has entered into a pre-bid acceptance agreement at A$1.00 per share with Lion Selection Limited ("Lion"), subject to certain conditions. Indophil understands that the net effect of this agreement is that Xstrata has increased its relevant interest in Indophil to 19.99%.

The Xstrata-Lion pre-bid acceptance agreement is conditional on Lion's shareholders approving the agreement or Indophil varying or withdrawing its takeover bid for Lion.

Subsequently, Xstrata has made an unsolicited and conditional approach to Indophil that may, or may not, lead to Xstrata making a cash offer of A$1.00 per Indophil share, subject to the following pre-conditions:

The Indophil Board considers that the Xstrata approach is unrealistically opportunistic and is at a price that does not reflect the value of Indophil. As a result, the Indophil Board has not agreed to recommend the Xstrata approach and it has not entered into any agreement with Xstrata. - Web Site

WALL STREET

Wall Street moved ahead Wednesday after a better-than-expected report on consumer prices tempered some of the market's concerns about inflation.
The Labor Department's report that consumer prices advanced 0.2 percent in April after rising 0.3 percent in March seemed to alleviate investors' worries that the recent surge in energy costs would force prices throughout the economy to spike higher. The moderation in prices comes despite the largest jump in food prices in 18 years.

Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by more than 3 to 2 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came to 1.19 billion shares.

Crude oil fell more than $1 a barrel after an Energy Department report showed that U.S. supplies of distillate fuels, including diesel, rose more than forecast.

Copper fell to a seven-week low on concern that a slowing global economy may curb demand for the metal used in pipes and wires.

Gold and silver fell as the US dollar rose.

KUTh welcomes $50 million for geothermal drilling in the Federal Budget

KUTh Energy is pleased to see in Tuesday's Federal Budget the announcement of a $50 million allocation to support deep geothermal drilling. This is a solid endorsement of the geothermal industry in Australia and good news for KUTh Energy Limited.

While the structure of the Geothermal Drilling Programme is yet to be finalised, the Australian Geothermal Energy Association (AGEA), of which KUTh is a key participant, has been in discussion with the relevant Ministry, as has KUTh directly. Amongst other things, both AGEA and KUTh suggested that the proposed Programme funds be spread geographically to test multiple geological provinces.

KUTh's first heat flow results show that its Tasmanian tenement contains a large geothermal target, which the Company continues to explore through our on-schedule shallow drilling program, designed to delineate individual targets for deep drilling. We look forward to the next round of discussions with the government to finalise the specifications of the deep drilling funding programme. - Web Site

WOODSIDE

IMPOSITION OF EXCISE ON NORTH WEST SHELF CONDENSATE

Woodside is considering its position following a decision by the Commonwealth Government to impose an excise on condensate produced from the Woodside-operated North West Shelf Venture.

Woodside Chief Executive Don Voelte said the decision to introduce a condensate excise was made without any consultation with the company.

Mr Voelte said the relief from condensate excise was among a range of measures between the North West Shelf participants and the Commonwealth and Western Australian governments that underpinned the economic viability of the project, while guaranteeing early financial returns to government.

"This is not a loophole which is being closed, or a free ride which has come to an end. This is a negotiated fiscal arrangement which formed the basis of Australia's largest resource development," Mr Voelte said.

"We have lived up to our commitments under this arrangement.

"Governments have a responsibility to consult with industry on major issues such as this. On this occasion there was no consultation on changes to arrangements which we considered to be binding."

Mr Voelte said the existing taxation arrangements had underpinned more than $25 billion in investment in the North West Shelf Venture, providing billions of dollars in revenues to the Western Australian and Commonwealth governments over the past 24 years.

The treatment for condensate was part of a larger fiscal package to facilitate the development of the North West Shelf in which the participants agreed to pay both royalty and excise from first production, despite incurring large capital costs which would take years to recover.

The arrangements resulted in revenues to government flowing from first production, many years before the project had recouped its costs. This contrasts with the current petroleum resource rent tax regime, in which tax is only paid once a project has recouped its costs.

"The North West Shelf Venture is a major contributor to the nation's gross domestic product, and any changes to the fiscal regimes under which existing major projects such as this operate should be considered extremely carefully," he said - Web Site


WOODSIDE

ACQUISITION OF SHELL NWS OIL ASSETS COMPLETED

Further to our announcement on 11 February 2008 Woodside advises that, in accordance with the relevant agreement, it has completed the purchase of Shell Development (Australia) Proprietary Limited's North West Shelf oil interests.

The final adjusted purchase price as at completion was US$277.7 million and Woodside will treat production attributable to the acquired Shell NWSV oil interests as accruing to the company from 1 May 2008.

Prior to this transaction, as at 31 December 2007, Woodside's 16.67% interest in the Cossack, Wanaea, Lambert and Hermes oil fields covered proved plus probable reserves of 19.6 million barrels of oil equivalent and an additional 7.2 million barrels of contingent resources. Woodside's 33.33% interest in Egret covered contingent resources of 4.1 million barrels of oil equivalent.

The sale doubles Woodside's participating interest in the Cossack, Wanaea, Lambert and Hermes fields to 33.33%. The company's interests in the Egret oil discovery area and remaining active oil exploration portfolio within a tieback distance to the Cossack Pioneer increases to 50%.

At this point in time Woodside maintains its recent 2008 production guidance and will provide an update when the company announces its half year results in August. - Web Site

COMMENTS ON WORLD HERITAGE PROPOSAL AND KODU DEPOSIT TO MEMBERS BY PNG CHAMBER OF MINES AND PETROLEUM

Frontier Resources is pleased to announce that the PNG Chamber Of Mines and Petroleum have issued a letter and other related documents (attached as Appendix 1) to all Member Companies regarding the proposed Owen Stanley World Heritage area being advocated by the Australian and PNG governments.

The Chamber's Executive Director encouraged Members to write to the PNG Deputy PM (Minister for Mines) and the Environment Minister expressing their concerns over the issues raised.

Highlights of the letter are:

  1. The Chamber's view is that the Track can be protected while at the same time allowing other land use in the general area i.e. coexistence of exploration/mining and tourism. The country and the communities are both winners in this scenario.
  2. The proposed declaration of a World Heritage Area and the refusal to renew an Exploration Licence for reasons not related to conditions of the licence and compliance with the Mining Act raises serious issues for the future of the mining industry.
  3. The Chamber believes that a World Heritage Area (WHA) is not sustainable in the long term and will likely fail.
  4. The DEC also proposes to commission a feasibility study to support the Brown River Catchment Management Plan……The attached map indicates that apart from EL 1348, six applications for Exploration Licences would be affected by the Catchment Plan if it relates to all the tributaries of the Brown River (about 3,000km2).
  5. The most worrying and significant impact on the industry is the impact these decisions have on security of title and the losses suffered by Frontier in particular …… The Chamber has argued that Frontier should be compensated for its loss however, Australia is apparently not willing to address this issue.
  6. We are greatly concerned with the lack of consultation over such major issues affecting basic security of tenure. The industry has been sidelined for political expediency.
  7. One of the problems is that the World Heritage nomination is not solely a PNG initiative; Australia is driving this issue very hard (despite denials) and devoting significant resources to it. They appear hell bent on doing it "their way".
  8. The decisions outlined above will have a long lasting impact on the future of our industry and PNG. The precedents created during this process will not be restricted to the Brown River - Kokoda area but will have ramifications for explorers and miners countrywide. I urge you to take an active interest in this process. - Web Site

Frontier Resources is pleased to announce that evaluation of mine tailings disposal options, for the Kodu copper-gold-molybdenum Deposit, is underway to determine and document the best possible disposal method and its environmental footprint.

The immediate priority is the application of cost effective geo polymers to stabilise mine tailings and produce a solid, impermeable material. The solid material has the advantage that if any drainage of residual chemicals did occur, flow rate would be minimal and could be neutralised at the mine tailings disposal area. It is possible that the tailings may be amenable to being made into blocks that could have a commercial market (see photo of an example of the possible product)...... - Web Site

DRILLING REPORT - 15 May 2008

WELL NAME: NW Paua 1 ST3, PNG
Oil Search reports that as at 0600 hrs on 15 May, the NW Paua 1 ST3 well was at a depth of 3,226 metres and running in hole to drill ahead. Progress for the week was 141m. The top of the Toro Formation has been drilled. Elevated gas readings and oil shows were recorded. A full log evaluation will be carried out once the rest of the Toro and the deeper Digimu Sandstone have been drilled.
NW Paua 1 is located in PDL 5, five kilometres northeast of the Moran oil field and six kilometres northwest of Paua 1x. The well is being drilled by the PPL 233 Joint Venture. Paua 1x was drilled on the steeply dipping and faulted forelimb of the Paua anticline in the mid 1990s and encountered oil shows in the Toro Sandstone and recovered oil from the Iagifu Sandstone. NW Paua 1 is targeting the Toro and Digimu sandstones in a more optimal location on the known hanging-wall structure. The planned total depth of the sidetrack is approximately 3,600 metres.

WELL NAME: Cobra 1A, PNG
Oil Search reports that as at 0600 hrs on 15 May, the Cobra 1A well was drilling ahead at a depth of 2,081 metres. Progress for the week was 380 metres.
Cobra 1 is located in PPL 190 and lies 13 kilometres east of the SE Gobe oil field and 7 kilometres east of the Bilip oil discovery. The well is targeting the Iagifu Sandstone, which is the principal reservoir in the Gobe and SE Gobe fields, in a seismically-defined sub-thrust prospect. Cobra 1 is the first in PNG to target a sub-thrust play as the primary target. The planned total depth of the well is 3,100 metres. - Web Site

NEW MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE DOUBLES PGM OUNCES IN CRUX DEPOSIT AT KALPLATS

Platinum Australia Limited (ASX: PLA) (AIM:PLAA) is pleased to announce that updated Mineral Resource estimates for the Crux, Orion and Crater Deposits in the Kalplats Project have been completed, with significant increases in both the Crux and the Crater Deposits.

The updated Crux resource estimate has increased the total contained ounces ("ozs") of Platinum Group Metals ("PGM's") by over 100% to 1.24 Moz 3E PGM (platinum + palladium + gold) and the updated Crater resource estimate has increased the total contained ozs by a further 13% to 680,000 ozs 3E PGM. The Orion resource estimate has decreased by 9% to 602,000 ozs 3E PGM. Both the Crux and the Orion resources are interim and will be updated again when further drill results are received.

Updated Mineral Resource estimates are outstanding for a further 4 deposits, Serpens North & South, Sirius and Vela which will be completed as the drilling on these is completed over the next few months.

The Mineral Resource estimates were completed by Snowden Mining Industry Consultants ("Snowden") and are based on a 0.5 g/t 3E PGM cut off and extend to a maximum depth of approximately 200 metres below soil cover.

The new combined Mineral Resource estimate for the three deposits may be summarised as follows:

PETSEC ENERGY

Petsec Energy's Main Pass 270 Field
Temporarily Shut-In Due to Pipeline Maintenance

Petsec Energy Ltd (ASX: PSA; ADRs: PSJEY.PK)

Petsec Energy today announced that its Main Pass 270 field has been shut in since 19 April 2008 due to a "pig" stuck in a production pipeline owned and operated by a third party. A pig is an oval, football shaped object which is run through pipelines as part of normal maintenance to clear pipelines of paraffin and other impurities that clog the flow of oil and condensate.

The production pipeline affected is used by Petsec Energy and other producers to transport condensate produced from various leases in this area. Without a pipeline to transport the condensate produced at Main Pass 270, Petsec Energy is also not able to flow the gas from the field. Daily production from the Main Pass 270 field net to Petsec Energy was approximately 4,700 MCF and 120 barrels of oil prior to the pipeline being blocked.

The operator of the pipeline has been working diligently to resolve the problem and it was initially expected that the blockage would be removed fairly quickly thereby returning the pipeline to service. Currently, the operator is injecting acid into the pipeline through hot taps in an attempt to dissolve the stuck pig. Petsec Energy will advise when the field returns to production.

Petsec owns a 25% working interest (20.83% net revenue interest) in the Main Pass 270 Field. - Web Site

Mount Remarkable Project Continues to Return Promising Results: Broad widths of low-grade copper mineralization intercepted at Mount Hutchinson prospect

Syndicated Metals Limited (ASX:SMD) is pleased to announce that outstanding assay results for the four RC holes drilled at Mount Hutchinson as part of the Company's maiden drilling program at its 100% owned Mount Remarkable Project near Mt Isa in Queensland have now been received. (Results for the drilling at the Barbara and Mount Margaret prospects were reported in an announcement to the ASX dated May 6th 2008.)

The drill holes at Mount Hutchinson were completed along a strike length of about 600 metres of a gossanous shear zone with copper anomalous rock chip geochemistry that has been mapped over a length of 1500 metres. Refer to Figure 2 for the hole locations.

Each drill hole intercepted broad intersections of low grade copper mineralization in strongly oxidized and ferruginous meta-sediments. Only one hole (MHRC004) reached partially oxidized bedrock at a depth of 120 metres with the other holes all finishing in strongly oxidized rock. Refer to Figure 3 for a cross-section through MHRC001 and MHRC002 which suggests a steeply west dipping zone of mineralization about 50 metres in width........- Web Site

BHP BILLITON

BHP Billiton Provides Further Details On Its Future Growth Profile

Marius Kloppers, Chief Executive Officer of BHP Billiton, spoke at the Merrill Lynch Global Mining conference in Florida on Tuesday, 13 May 2008. During his presentation, he reviewed BHP Billiton's strategy of focussing on tier 1, low-cost and long-life assets. He also highlighted the Group's scale and diversification as well as its focus on high margin commodities both in its current production profile and future development pipeline.

As part of his speech, he went on to outline BHP Billiton's superior potential for growth relative to Rio Tinto. Over the period between 2007 and 2012, BHP Billiton's compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is expected to be 6.9 per cent on a copper equivalent volume basis. On a comparable basis, Rio Tinto is expected to deliver a CAGR of around 6 per cent. More importantly BHP Billiton's growth is driven by higher margin commodities such as petroleum and iron ore.

WALL STREET

Wall Street turned in a mixed performance Tuesday after a fresh report on retail sales (fell by 0.2 percent in April) and a new oil price record told investors the same old story: the economy is hurting and costs are rising, but things could be worse.

Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by about 8 to 7 on the New York Stock Exchange. Consolidated volume came to 3.86 billion shares, up from 3.27 billion shares Monday.

Oil prices spiked to a trading record of US $126.98 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange after Iranian news services reported Iran is considering a cut to output.

Zinc prices jumped more than 7 per cent on Tuesday, boosted by a potential fall in supply from China after Monday's massive earthquake, while tin hit a record high.

Gold dropped the most in two weeks as the US dollar rebounded against the euro, curbing demand for the metal as an alternative investment. Silver also fell.

Petroleum Exploration Australia - Merlin Energy - Rawson Resources Farmin Agreement Formalised EP 97 Prospect Blocks Pedirka Basin

Central Petroleum Limited's (CTP-Central) wholly owned subsidiary, Merlin Energy Pty Ltd, (Merlin) has formalized an agreement with Petroleum Exploration Australia Limited (PXA) to farmin to Merlin Energy Pty Ltd's (Merlin) Simpson, Bejah and Dune prospect blocks which are the subject of a farmin by Merlin to Rawson Resources Limited (RAW) in EP 97 in the Pedirka Basin.

The farmin deal will see PXA fund 22.5% of the costs of the Madigan seismic survey (which was recently completed by Central) and 22.5% of the costs of drilling of one well in each of the prospect blocks (three) for PXA to retain a 15% interest in each of the prospect blocks. PXA are already funding 40% of exploration in Merlin's EP 93 for a 20% stake in discoveries and the permit subject to various conditions previously announced. The Madigan seismic contribution and the first well (Simpson 1) are mandatory for PXA but PXA and Merlin have the option to cease expenditure at any time after that.

The Pedirka Basin is a recognised prospective province for oil exploration with many similarities to the Cooper Basin but with more oil prone source rocks. Previous drilling has underscored the presence of three distinct petroleum systems in the Permian, Triassic and Jurassic as well as highlighting the potential for Coal Bed Methane prospective recoverable resources.

Drilling in the Pedirka Basin is expected to kick off by the end of May with the Blamore 1 oil well to be followed by one or two CBM exploration wells prior to drilling the Simpson 1 well. - Web Site

First gold from Frog's Leg underground mine poured today

Australian gold producer Dioro Exploration NL (ASX/TSX: DIO) and its Canadian joint venture partner La Mancha Resources Inc. today poured the first gold from ore mined underground at its Frog's Leg project near Kalgoorlie in Western Australia.

The gold pour marked the return to production of the Frog's Leg mine (49% owned by Dioro) which produced 112,000 oz from the open pit in 2004/05.

The ore is part of a 100,000 tonne parcel of mainly development ore from Frog's Leg which is being processed at Dioro's 100%-owned Jubilee mill over the next two months.

In addition to the gold pour there have been other significant developments at the Frog's Leg mine:

The Frog's Leg mine is forecast to produce an average of 83,000 oz of gold per annum from its underground operations over the next seven years, based on reserves of 3.65 million tonnes at 5.29 g/t Au (JORC Compliant Ore Reserve of 622,000 oz.)

This reserve does not take into account additional resources calculated in the March 2008 upgrade. The March resource estimates added 267,000 (37% increase) to the measured and indicated category increasing the total measured and indicated resources to 990,000 oz. - Web Site

POSITIVE INDEPENDENT INITIAL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT ON THE KODU DEPOSIT RECEIVED, CONFIRMING NO WATER, POWER OR ABNORMAL ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

Frontier Resources is very pleased to announce that a positive ‘Initial Environmental Assessment' (IEA) Report has been produced by Independent John Douglas of Douglas Environmental Consultants, based in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea.

The IEA conclusions support all Frontier's previous comments relating to this issue confirming there is no valid reason under the Mining Act or even in the National Interest to not renew the Exploration License (EL 1348).

The IEA report notes: …there are only minimal risks to the Kokoda Track, and if the original 1942 track is found to be away from the mine then those risks are much reduced. The threats to the future Port Moresby Water Supply are minimal, and extra water will not become a need until some 15 years after the mine closes. Several options for water supply at that time exist. The mine is most unlikely to impact significantly on the Goldie River, if sound mine environmental management is practiced. - Web Site

VICTORIA - MARKET UPDATE

Kagara Ltd is pleased to update the market on the progress of drilling at the Victoria prospect, located four kilometres to the east of the Mungana mine site in north Queensland. Drilling has outlined continuous base metal mineralisation over a strike extent of 500 metres and down dip to a depth of 400 metres. The bulk of the mineralisation is located on the Victoria thrust, a faulted contact between siltstones and carbonate rock units which have been strongly skarn altered. The thrust hosts zinc-copper-silver-gold mineralisation becoming more copper, gold and molybdenum rich with depth. This zonation is similar to what occurs at Mungana and Red Dome and may be indicative of a larger porphyry system at depth. The alteration zone also contains high levels of tin, bismuth, tungsten and tellurium which is characteristic of the Red Dome and Mungana systems.

Assays from recently drilled holes are attached and confirm the internal continuity of the mineralisation and some of the higher grade intersections are:

HOLE

- 963 4.33 metres @ 2.6% copper, 31 grams per tonne silver, 1.66 grams per tonne gold

- 964 4.40 metres @ 0.1% copper, 21.5% zinc *

- 965 5.50 metres @ 2.2% copper, 15.5% zinc, 29 grams per tonne silver *

and 5.05 metres @ 3.1% copper, 10.9% zinc, 47 grams per tonne silver *

- 966 3.98 metres @ 1.3% copper, 12.4% zinc, 38 grams per tonne silver *

PERSEUS MINING

African Gold Hunt Gives Perseus New Goals

On the back of two major resource upgrades at its world-class Ayanfuri gold project in Ghana, Perseus Mining has been prominent in the media.

An article from respected business journalist Barry Fitzgerald which appeared in today's Melbourne-based newspaper The Age drew comparisons with fellow African gold companies Equigold and Lihir.

"As it is, on its current resource base, Perseus is trading at less than $50 an ounce. That is at least half the going rate for ASX/TSX-listed gold explorers/developers that have their main focus on West Africa.".....

Perseus now has more than 4.7 million ounces in Ghana, an increase of 2.6 million ounces in 12 months.

However, the Company is targeting an increased resource to 8 million ounces with reserves potential to 4 million ounces by the end of 2009.

A Detailed Feasibility Study is underway at Ayanfuri and is expected to be completed by November this year while plans to start production in late 2010 remain on track.

Perseus is in the final stages of listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) with the Company planning to be listed in North American by the end of June. - Web Site

ARX EXECUTES A HEADS OF AGREEMENT FOR A FARM-OUT OF THE CIBALIUNG GOLD PROJECT

Austindo Resources Corporation NL ("Austindo" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding Heads of Agreement with East Asia Minerals Corporation ("EAS") for a farm-out of the Cibaliung Gold Project in Indonesia ("Cibaliung" or the "Project").

The farm-out is conditional upon entering into a definitive Acquisition and Farm-In Agreement on or about 28 May 2008 as well as various approvals including, if necessary, Austindo shareholder approval. The key terms of the farm-out are summarised as follows:

This result is the culmination of an extensive process that was announced in early March 2008 to secure a farm-in partner for the Project. Importantly, it provides Cibaliung with much needed funds to complete development and in due course capitalise on significant exploration potential near mine, with the intention to possibly increase mine life or throughput or both.

BEACH PETROLEUM

BEACH MOVING TO EXPLORE IN TANZANIA

Beach Petroleum Limited advises it has been granted exclusive rights following a contested tender process to negotiate with the Tanzanian Government to explore onshore and the waters of the southern half of Lake Tanganyika, in western Tanzania.

The Company will have to negotiate the terms of a Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) before any work can commence.

Oil seeps and surface slicks are well known on the surface of Lake Tanganyika whose South Block covers approximately 5,400 square kilometres. It forms part of the western arm of the 6,400-kilometre long East African Rift system as does Lake Albert.

This includes Lakes Albert and Edward to the north of Lake Tanganyika and Lake Malawi in the south.

Exploration in the Ugandan portion of the Albert Basin by Hardman Resources Limited (taken over by Tullow Oil plc in 2007) and Heritage Oil Corporation has produced significant oil discoveries with prospective reserves in the 100 -1000 million barrels (mmbbl) range. - Web Site

Exploration Drilling Seeks to Enlarge Gold Resource

Citigold Corporation Limited (Citigold) (ASX:CTO, DIFX:CTO, FSE:CHP) is pleased to announce an update on its Charters Towers gold project.

Now that a cash flow base has been established with continuous gold production from the Charters Towers South (Warrior) mine, Citigold is seeking to expand it's existing 10 million ounce resource by drilling additional targets in the goldfield.

One initiative is the planned drilling of a 2,000 metre deep hole, to test for a possible source of the high grade Charters Towers mineralisation. The program, the Charters Towers Deeps project, qualified for funding from the government under round one of the Collaborative Drilling Initiative of the Smart Mining - Future Prosperity Program.

The hole, if it hits one or more ore grade gold intersections, has the potential to substantially increase the current resource.

Most of the known vein systems dip towards the same location, an area to the northeast of Charters Towers lying within Citigold's tenement boundaries. The structures are predictable geometrically and good intersections are anticipated on the known veins. Defining the source will allow better prediction of the high grade areas for mining, as mineralisation moved away from its source.

At this stage it is expected that mobilisation of the drill rig will commence in late May and that actual drilling will be underway by the end June.- Web Site

OIL SEARCH SIGNS PSC IN HIGHLY PROSPECTIVE BLOCK IN KURDISTAN, IRAQ

Oil Search Limited is pleased to announce that it has signed a Production Sharing Contract (PSC) for the 632 square kilometre Shakal Block with the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) in Iraq.

The Shakal Block lies in the southeastern fairway of the prolific Zagros Fold belt of Kurdistan and lies immediately south east and on trend with the Pulkhana Field, which has reported proven reserves of around 300 million barrels of oil. Surface geology, digital terrain models and topography indicate that the Pulkhana structure could extend into the Shakal block. Oil Search estimates that the block has the potential to contain mean unrisked recoverable reserves of some 250 million barrels, either in a separate structure or as a continuation of the Pulkhana field.

200 kilometres of 2D seismic has recently been acquired over the structure and two exploration/appraisal wells are planned to test the Shakal structure in mid/late 2008.

The Shakal PSC fully conforms to the Model PSC required under new Iraqi oil and gas laws and has a seven year exploration period and a 20 year extendable production period...... - Web Site

TAP OIL

WOOLLYBUTT FPSO FACILITY AND COMMENCEMENT OF WOOLLYBUTT SOUTH DEVELOPMENT INSTALLATION

Tap Oil Limited ("Tap") advises that oil production from the Woollybutt field remains shut-in pending ongoing reviews and repairs.

Location
The Woollybutt field is located in permit WA-25-L off the coast of Western Australia, approximately 40km west of Barrow Island.

Progress
Subsequent to the initial event on 9th April, the Operator of the facility (AFM/Premuda) and the permit Operator (Eni), and NOPSA have conducted investigations as to the causes of the recent problems being experienced on the facility and remedial actions are being undertaken.

Tap Comment
Tap is working closely with the permit Operator (Eni) to rectify the deficiencies that have been identified in the recent investigations. Every effort is being made to return the facility to production as rapidly as possible but only when we are confident of its safety.

This event has not impacted the reserves of the Woollybutt field, with production deferred for the period of the shutdown.

Progress of the Woollybutt South development has not been affected by the FPSO shutdown. The installation vessel is due to arrive on site this week to commence the Woollybutt South hookup which is scheduled to take approximately 25 days. Production is due to commence immediately following commissioning of the newly installed facilities at a total field rate of approximately 12,000 bopd. - Web Site

WALL STREET

Wall Street rallied Monday as oil prices eased back and alleviated some of investors' concerns about accelerating inflation. Crude briefly reached a new trading high of $126.40, but investors seemed shy to add to oil's huge gain of nearly $10 last week.
The Dow Jones industrials gained 130 points.

Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by more than 2 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume fell to 3.27 billion shares from 3.40 billion late Friday.

Monday's advance follows a week in which the major indexes all fell as worries about the impact of inflation weighed on investors.

Crude oil declined after touching a record US$126.40 a barrel in New York amid signs that rising prices may curb demand in emerging markets.
China's oil imports declined in April as crude costs prompted refiners to cut demand, and India's industrial production grew at the slowest pace since 2002, reports today showed.

Copper rebounded after the US dollar eased, renewing speculation that investors will buy the metal as a hedge against inflation.

Gold was little changed.

Outstanding uranium intersections at Rossing South from downhole spectral logging

Extract Resources ("the Company"), (TSX:EXT;ASX:EXT), a Uranium exploration company with projects in Namibia, Africa, today announced that down hole spectral logging of recently completed deep Reverse Circulation drill holes at Rossing South has produced a number of significant uranium intersections.

These intersections support the Company's view that a large high grade alaskite dyke swarm is present under alluvial cover at Rossing South, just 1 kilometre from the common boundary with the Rossing Mining Grant.

Deep RC drilling to date covers 3.6 kilometres of strike length on a line spacing varying from 1.6 kilometres to 400 metres. Angled holes are sited at 80 metre intervals along drill lines. Potentially economic uranium mineralisation has been returned from every drill traverse tested to date. The mineralisation remains open to the north and south, shows an apparent thickness of up to 180 metres, and has been encountered to a depth of approximately 190 metres below surface.

Standout intersections returned to date include:

MINEMAKERS

CONCERNS ABOUT TRADING PRACTICES IN MINEMAKERS, AND WONARAH PROGRESS UPDATE

At the start of May, Minemakers and several of its shareholders noted a new type of trading in Minemakers' shares, namely a multitude of trades at single digit levels.

This caused concern to numerous of our shareholders, several of whom registered their concern with Minemakers and with the ASX, and they queried whether the practice could be influencing the share price. The Company also raised the issue with ASX when it was initially noted and when the trading party was able to be identified.

ASX has advised Minemakers that it has reviewed the situation and understands that the trading is of a form known as Direct Market Access (DMA) or Algorithmic. It advised that it monitors DMA trading and expects brokers to have in place appropriate mechanisms to ensure that such trading is not manipulative.

WONARAH UPDATE

The opportunity is taken for a brief update on activities at Wonarah as follows:

  1. Diamond drilling: this drilling for geotechnical and metallurgical investigations is proceeding.
  2. RC drilling: the drilling resumes this week for resources and for pre-collars to allow acceleration of the diamond drilling programme.
  3. Environmental Studies: field investigations begin this week.
  4. Project Manager: advertising for this position has been successful and interviewing of candidates has been initiated.
  5. Infrastructure and transport: introductory meetings have been held concerning road freight contracts. Meetings are scheduled in Darwin at month's end concerning rail freight and ship loading.
  6. Development and permitting expediting: meetings are scheduled in the last week of May with the responsible NT Government Ministers, officers of the Department of Business, Industry and Resource Development, and officers of the Northern and Central Lands Councils. - Web Site

Progress Report

Woodline Gold Project

Results are now to hand for an initial drilling programme conducted in March and April at Woodline, being just the first of several drilling programmes planned throughout the year as part of the $3.8 million budget proposed by Newmont. The next drilling is planned to commence mid May.

As reported in Sipa's ASX Quarterly Report on 29 April 2008, six Reverse Circulation (RC) holes were drilled at three prospects and 138 Rotary Air Blast (RAB) holes were drilled at two prospects.

One, 200 metre long RC hole (WLRC1) was drilled at Socrates to follow-up 22 metres grading 3.1g/t gold in hole WLRB17, reported to the ASX on 29 November 2007. WLRC1 intersected the same mineralised structure, in two intervals over a total of 32 m down-hole, recording very similar alteration and pyritic mineralisation to WLRB17. Gold values were anomalous, though subdued compared with WLRB17, with a maximum 1 metre interval assay of 1.3 g/t gold. The closest drilling along strike from WLRC1 and WLRB17 is 200 metres north and south where RAB hole spacing is 100 metres. This drilling will be ‘closed-up' in the next RAB programme. It is anticipated that the recently completed Induced Polarisation geophysical survey centred on Socrates will assist in better interpreting the trend of the mineralised structures and will be used in part to guide more drilling.

Three RC holes drilled at the Heraclitus Prospect followed-up an encouraging intersection of 17 metres grading 0.2g/t gold, also reported 29 November 2007. Each of the three 75 metre spaced recent holes intersected anomalous mineralisation (ranging from 12 metres grading 0.5 g/t gold from 64 metres to 12 metres grading 0.2 g/t gold from 40metres) in a near horizontal to gently east dipping zone of garnetbiotite gneiss. The closest drill traverses to these holes are 1 kilometre north and south within this substantial gold-in-calcrete anomaly that measures 8 kilometres by 2 kilometres. More drilling is required to test this mineralised structure at depth and along strike.

138 RAB/Aircore holes were drilled at 1,000 metre by 200 metre spacings within both the Heraclitus and Theofrastos gold-in-calcrete anomalies, and a number of anomalous drillholes (peaking at 4 metres grading 0.3 g/t gold) were returned. Closer-spaced calcrete-in-soil sampling and RAB drilling is required to map out mineralised trends within these large gold-in-calcrete anomalies which are situated within the ‘Transition Zone' between Archaean Greenstones and the Proterozoic Albany-Fraser Province which hosts the Tropicana Gold Deposits (maiden resource of 4 million ounces of gold announced by Independence Group-AngloGold Ashanti last December) approximately 300 kilometres to the northeast.

The next phase of RAB drilling is planned to recommence in mid May and which will test another 4 goldin- calcrete anomalies with at least 250 holes. This will be followed by more RC and initial diamond drilling as the year's substantial budget is progressed

Thaduna Copper Project

614 RAB holes for 3,693 metres and 25 Aircore for holes for 1,194 metres have just been completed at Sipa's 100% Thaduna Project. The drilling was designed to extend bedrock geochemical sampling beneath extensive, though generally shallow sand cover, and to further test near the historic Ricci Lee copper workings. Results should be available within several weeks.- Web Site

Higginsville Treatment Plant Begins Commissioning

Avoca Resources Limited (Avoca or the Company) is pleased to announce that the Commissioning Program of its new 1 million tonne per annum CIL treatment plant at Higginsville in Western Australia has commenced. The crushing circuit is the first area of the plant to undergo commissioning which involves a series of tests prior to ore commissioning which is scheduled for the 21st May 2008. The Commissioning Program is a rigorous series of tests that are designed to systematically test and commission the operation and safe application of all the components of the Higginsville Treatment Plant. Upon successful completion of the Commissioning Program, the Higginsville Treatment Plant will be ready to process high grade ore feed from Trident.

The design and construction of the plant has reached 95% complete and is on schedule for practical completion in early June and commissioning completion by the end of June 2008. Importantly, the plant completion remains within budget and on time for commencement of high grade feed in early July. - Web Site

CASTLE MINERALS

Strong gold anomaly defined at Wa Project

Castle Minerals Limited (ASX:CDT) is pleased to advise that its first sampling program at the Wa Project (Castle right to earn 100% interest from Newmont Ghana Gold Limited) has identified a large number of gold in soil anomalies including a strongly anomalous 2,000m long x 1000m wide area west of Crew Gold's 300,000 ounce Julie gold deposit.

This area has reported values up to 3,096 ppb gold (3.09g/t gold) and is hosted by sedimentary rocks flanked by granites to the north and south.

The Julie gold deposit (5km to the east) is an east-west trending zone that dips 45 degrees to the north, with shear-hosted gold mineralization occurring along a granite/basalt contact. Crew Gold has reported an unclassified (inferred) resource of approximately 3.3 million tonnes for the top 30m of the Julie target, containing about 300,000 oz gold.

Castle Managing Director Mike Ivey said "the soil response in the north of Ghana is generally lower than in the more tropical soils found in the south so these high tenor results are particularly encouraging." - Web Site

Momoho Exploration Well Disclosure Notice

Drilling of the Momoho exploration well, contained within the Kupe Permit 38146 in offshore Taranaki, is scheduled to begin in late May following completion of the Kupe development wells.

A recent general release by another JV participant contained information on Momoho and as a consequence of this NZOG believes its internal assessments should be provided to shareholders.

The Momoho exploration well location is approximately 5.5kms from the Kupe field development and production platform. The Momoho prospect sits between the exploration well KS-4, which was a gas/light oil discovery, and KS-5, another discovery, which flowed principally oil with some gas. The hydrocarbon/water contacts for KS-4 and KS-5 exploration wells were at quite different depths. This has a significant influence on the potential quantity of oil/gas in the reservoir. This issue, along with other geological factors, results in a wide range of potential outcomes for Momoho, including that no hydrocarbons, or sub-commercial volumes, are present.

NZOG expects that the Momoho exploration prospect will contain a combination of gas and liquids (oil and LPGs). Using a probabilistic assessment of geological factors, NZOG's estimate of recoverable resources is 200 BCF equivalent (combining gas, oil and LPG estimates) determined at the P50 level (as likely as not) and assuming that the Momoho exploration well discovers hydrocarbons.

In the event that Momoho is a commercial discovery a development may be possible via the Kupe infrastructure. - Web Site

OCEANAGOLD

OceanaGold Provides Corporate Update

OceanaGold Corporation today announced a revised capital cost for the Didipio Gold Copper project under construction on Northern Luzon Island in the Philippines. Didipio is one of the highest grade gold-copper porphyries being developed in the world today. With current proven and probable reserves of 1.57 million ounces of gold and 200 thousand tonnes of copper, the deposit has a 15 year mine life at 2.5 million tonnes per annum of production. The mineral resource if converted to reserves, will add another 610 thousand ounces of gold and 100 thousand tonnes of copper. The deposit is open at depth and a near-mine exploration drilling program has commenced.

The latest feasibility study was completed in 2006, and the Company has recently finalized a detailed review and third party audit of the project scope and cost to completion.

The project is now expected to cost US$320 million of which US$40 million has been spent. This revised capital cost includes a US$33 million contingency and the Company has US$105 million in cash. Using a US$800 / oz gold price and a US$3.50 / lb copper price, the project has an IRR of 22% and a payback of three years measured from the completion of commissioning on June 30, 2009. ..... - Web Site
