Wall Street closed out a firmer week with a narrowly mixed performance Friday after the government reported that Americans' spending rose in April to keep pace with rising costs.
The Commerce Department said personal spending rose 0.2 percent last month and personal income rose 0.2 percent. The department also said inflation at the personal spending level, after stripping out food and energy costs, ticked up in April by a mild 0.1 percent.
Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by about 8 to 7 on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 3.72 billion shares, compared to 3.81 billion shares on Thursday.
All three major indexes finished higher for the week, recovering from the previous week's sharp losses. The Dow rose 1.27 percent, the S&P 500 gained 1.78 percent and the Nasdaq picked up 3.19 percent.
On the LME copper and aluminium prices edged up on Friday as worries about supply shortfalls resurfaced, while tin fell sharply to a two-month low.
Tin headed for its steepest weekly drop since August in London after stockpiles expanded and investors judged that a record reached this month didn't reflect the outlook for demand.
Copper could see some support by the threat of a nationwide strike in Peru and industrial action in Mexico, where workers held a one-day strike earlier this week.
Gold rose for the first time this week as a sloght rebound in energy costs and the US dollar's drop against the euro revived demand for an inflation hedge. Silver gained more than 2 percent.
Lonsec Resources Update dated 28 May 2008 which recommends MAR:
Speculative Buy. MAR is an attractive high risk, high reward exploration opportunity.
Further drilling success at Conrad should translate into increased resources, a maiden reserve and further evaluation which could ultimately lead to production. - Web Site

ADMIRAL BAY PROGRESS
Kagara Ltd wishes to advise shareholders of the following developments at the Admiral Bay zinc-leadsilver- barite deposit, located in the Canning Basin of Western Australia.
Metallurgical test work is producing extremely good results for all four composites which were selected from the diamond drilling program carried out during 2007, and considered as being representative of the ore types present. Grinding to 150 microns delivers lead recoveries ranging between 97% and 99% to concentrate grades of between 69% and 79% lead. For the most part only one cleaning stage is required to produce a very high quality concentrate but further cleaning tests will be carried out on two of the composites. The coarse grind will result in significantly reduced power requirements and lower capital costs for the treatment plant. Test work will now focus on zinc and barite.
Geotechnical drilling is also continuing with wedge hole ABRD011D having progressed to 1,197 metres. We now have complete HQ diamond drill core coverage from approximately 650 metres depth down to the deposit and the information generated will greatly assist in future mine design, but because of the cost of wedging, at this stage it is unlikely that reserve definition can be achieved through drilling from surface...... - Web Site

Fox Identifies New Iron Ore Prospects
FOX BACKS UP Mt OSCAR WITH NEW IRON ORE PROSPECTS
Fox Resources Limited (ASX: FXR) today announced that it has identified three new iron ore prospects near the Company's Mt Oscar Iron Ore Project (Mt Oscar) in the Pilbara of Western Australia.
The new prospects, Mt Carla, Mt Kristie and Mt Catherine (Figure 1), are located within the highly prospective Cleaverville geological formation.
The Cleaverville formation hosts the 1.6 billion tonne Cape Lambert Magnetite project held by Cape Lambert Iron Ore Limited (ASX:CFE). The project which is subject to a $400 million sale to Chinese conglomerate China Metallurgical Group Cooperation (MCC) who hold a 20% stake in the 2 billion tonne Sino Iron Magnetite Project near Cape Preston in the Pilbara.
The prospects were initially identified by high resolution aeromagnetics (Figure 2). The prospects are believed to have the potential for both haematite and magnetite iron ore. The potential strike length of all three prospects is estimated at approximately 20km (Figure 3).
The Mt Kristie and Mt Catherine iron ore prospects are clearly the western extensions of the Cleaverville formation found at the Cape Lambert project and the associated rock units have similar magnetic signatures (Figure 3). ..... - Web Site

Nido Raises $41.25 million to Initiate Expanded SC54 Drilling Program
Nido Petroleum Ltd (Nido) is pleased to announce the completion of a share placement to sophisticated investors raising gross funds of $41.25 million. The share placement was jointly arranged by CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets and Merrill Lynch.
Service Contract 54 Drilling Program
On 29 April 2008, Nido announced plans to expand its drilling program in Service Contract 54 (SC54) from one well to three wells. Nido and its Joint Venture partner Kairiki Energy Limited budgeted to drill at least two shallow water wells with a jack-up rig at the end of 2008, followed by drilling of the Gindara prospect in 2009. The purpose of the fundraising is primarily to initiate this accelerated three-well drilling program that will form the beginning of a larger scale program to be conducted over the next five years. Current record oil prices of over A$130/bbl provide an ideal environment for evaluation of this area with the aim of rapidly extracting maximum value from Nido's Palawan Basin acreage. The funds raised will ensure that Nido is well positioned to secure drilling rigs and additional long lead time items for the increased drilling program in the current tight market conditions..... - Web Site

Stocks rose for the third straight session Thursday as oil prices fell sharply and the government reported that the economy grew last quarter at a faster pace than previously estimated.
A strengthening US dollar helped push crude oil prices down by more than $4 per barrel, the biggest single-session drop since March. This was despite the US Energy Information Administration reporting an 8.9 million barrel drop in oil inventories for the week ending May 23, the largest single-week decline since September 2004. The EIA attributed part of the drop to a one-time shipping delay.
Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by about 2 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came to 3.81 billion shares, essentially flat with Wednesday.
Copper fell the most in four weeks as the US dollar rallied, eroding the appeal of commodities as alternative investment.
Other base metals were lower on the LME, with nickel, lead and zinc slipping sharply as stockpiles rose.
Gold tumbled the most in almost six weeks; silver fell more than 5 percent.

Wall Street managed to finish an erratic session with a moderate gain Wednesday as investors found some comfort in upbeat data on durable goods orders.
Crude's recovery (threats against Nigerian oil facilities led investors to at least temporarily set aside concerns about falling U.S. gas demand) from its lows Wednesday ate into some of the stock market's enthusiasm over the Commerce Department's durable goods report; the government said orders for items including aircraft, machinery, cars, refrigerators and computers slipped 0.5 percent last month - Wall Street expected a steeper decline.
Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by about 9 to 7 on the New York Stock Exchange. Consolidated volume came to 3.81 billion shares, up from 3.39 billion shares Tuesday.
Nickel extended the previous session's losses on Wednesday on concern about falling demand for stainless steel, while copper eased on waning Chinese demand and rising stocks in London Metal Exchange warehouses.
Gold futures fell for a second day Wednesday, pushing prices near their lowest levels in almost two weeks, as a less-than-expected decline in new orders for U.S.-made durable goods helped provide support for the U.S. dollar.

INTREPID & AURA REPORT POSITIVE GOLD-SILVER RESULTS ON NEWLY ACQUIRED ALMA DELIA PROPERTY AND EAST TAVICHE - MEXICO
Intrepid Mines Limited (TSX & ASX: IAU, TSX: IXN) and Aura Silver Resources Inc. (TSX-V: AUU) are pleased to announce prospecting results for the Higo Blanco zone, a major jasperoid/vein breccia complex, located within the southern part of the East Taviche mineral concession.
The zone is at least several kilometers in strike length by up to one kilometer wide and extends southeasterly into the recently acquired Alma Delia concession. Samples assaying up to 3.08 grams per tonne gold and 1,780 grams per tonne silver were obtained in the jasperoid zones and assays of 1.07 grams per tonne gold and 251 grams per tonne silver in the vein breccia.... - Web Site
INTREPID INTERSECTS COPPER-GOLD PORPHYRY AT TUJUH BUKIT
Intrepid Mines Limited (TSX: IAU, IXN & ASX: IAU), an international gold and silver production, development and exploration company, today reports that hole GTD-08-29, from the Tujuh Bukit Project in Indonesia, has intersected highly encouraging copper-gold assays from the porphyry zone previously predicted to sit below the oxide and high sulphidation gold-silver cap.
In addition, Intrepid has received final assay results for several holes drilled at Zone C into the near surface oxide and sulphide High Sulphidation system.
Porphyry Copper-Gold Intersected
Hole GTD-08-29 intersected 268 metres at 0.47 grams per tonne gold and 0.32% copper from 390 metres, including 100 metres at 1.02 grams per tonne gold and 0.55% copper from 530 metres.
Brad Gordon, Intrepid Mines Chief Executive Officer commented, "This is a very significant intersection for the Tujuh Bukit project. It confirms the previously interpreted copper-gold porphyry at depth and has confirmed the high gold tenor of the porphyry system. Additionally, we are pleased to see assay results from all zones that continue to support our overall plan for the development of the Tujuh Bukit project. We look forward to publishing the inaugural resource for the project in June 2008."
Whilst the intersection is at depth (underneath the Zone C oxide and high sulphidation gold-silver-copper zone) this intercept is at a similar RL to porphyry copper mineralisation mapped in outcrop approximately 1.6 kilometres to the north which may therefore present surface adit access opportunities due to the topography. This outcrop returned rock chip values of 47 metres at 1.29% copper and 1.71 grams per tonne gold.
IP surveys in this area have defined significant chargeability anomalies that require follow up drilling. Interpretation of the geophysical data, primarily chargeability and metal factor modeling, suggest that sulphides, that may be associated with the porphyry zone, may occur at a shallower depth to the northeast of hole 29. This area is currently being drilled as a priority and results are expected in early July.
Oxide Gold-Silver Results
Intrepid has received final assay results from several holes drilled at Zone C into the oxide and sulphide ‘High Sulphidation' system. These results have confirmed the presence of a significant oxide gold-silver zone at Zone C, one of three zones – Zones A, B and C, see diagram below - known to contain oxide mineralisation.

Wall Street advanced in uneven trading Tuesday after a drop in oil prices and an unexpected gain in new home sales (up 3.3 percent in April) encouraged investors to put money back into the market.
The Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller home price index indicated that prices fell 14.1 percent during the quarter.
Advancing issues led decliners by 3 to 2 basis on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 3.39 billion shares, compared to 3.34 billion on Friday.
Oil prices dropped below $129 a barrel Tuesday, falling sharply on a growing sense that soaring gas and oil prices have cut demand for fuel during the normally busy summer driving season. Tuesday's oil price decline was notable in that it came in the face of a number of events that could have sent oil prices higher, including reports that crude oil production in Mexico fell by 13 percent in April compared to the previous year, the temporary shutdown of a North Sea oil platform and the latest in a spate of oil-pipeline bombings in Nigeria.
Oil prices were also pressured Tuesday by the US dollar, which gained ground against the euro.
On the LME copper rose as investors hunted bargains after last week's losses, amid expectations supply of the metal will remain tight this year, though nickel bucked the upward trend seen in the other metals, sliding by over $1,000 a tonne at its lowest point.
Gold fell the most in four weeks as a drop in energy costs reduced demand for a hedge against inflation. Silver tumbled the most in two months.

Drilling Update
Rusina Mining NL (the ‘Company') is pleased to advise that Primo-Asia Drilling has mobilised a skid mounted CS1000 6L rotary drill rig to the Acoje site on the island of Luzon in the Philippines on Saturday 24th May. The rig is fitted with a top drive and is capable of drilling to 400m with HQ and 1,000m with reduced core sizes.
This rig will commence the drilling programme, announced to the ASX on 7th March 2008, for Platinum Group Metals (‘PGM's'), chromite and nickel sulphides.
The initial program will comprise approximately 10 drill holes (2,000 metres) and will test new interpretations of the formation of the PGM and nickel sulphides mineralisation. The new model is supported by recent detailed surface mapping, the geophysical Induced Polarisation (IP) survey completed in 2006 as well as the digitisation of the historical underground drill data and 3D modelling of the chromite lodes.
The current geological model suggests that the high-grade pod of PGM mineralisation previously defined by drilling in 2005, will be repeated within the Dunite host rock, however due to their discrete size and orientations, targeting these additional pods of PGM's will be difficult and require careful, systematic exploration methodologies. - Web Site

SHAREHOLDER UPDATE - 3,000 TPA SYNRUTILE DEMONSTRATION PLANT
Austpac is pleased to report that Stage 1, the ilmenite roasting section of Austpac's ERMS SR synrutile Demonstration Plant at Newcastle, has now been running successfully on a 24 hour 7 days a week basis for three months. The roasted ilmenite continues to meet specifications and bench leaching of samples of the roasted material consistently produes ultra high grade synrutile, containing 97% TiO2, with low contaminants and low radioactivity.
The roasting campaign commenced in March 2008 with the processing of 150 tonnes of CRL ilmenite. The plant has now roasted over 300 tonnes of the 500 tonne ilmenite parcel purchased from Bemax's Murray Basin operations. Once roasting of Bemax ilmenite is complete, the Plant will process 70 tonnes of ilmenite from BHP Billiton's Corridor Sands deposit in ozambique. The campaign will conclude at the end of June 2008.....- Web Site

Kennedy-1 Operational Update
Aurora Oil & Gas Limited (ASX: AUT, "Aurora" or "Company") has been advised by Texas Crude Energy Incorporated ("TCEI"), the operator of the Sugarloaf AMI on the Sugarkane Gas and Condensate field, that production tubing has been successfully installed in Kennedy - 1H and the well has been flowed and placed back on well test. The reservoir stimulation program on the Kennedy-1H well commenced on 14 May, 2008 with the hydraulic fracture stimulation ("frac") of an approximate 600 ft zone at the end of the horizontal section of the well via four sets of perforations.
As at 0600hrs (US CST) on the 25 May 2008 the well had produced a total of 1,274 bbls of fracture fluids, 257 bbls of condensate and is continuing to produce small quantities of gas and condensate. With the production tubing now in place there are several options available to accelerate the recovery of fracture fluid and the potential for additional fracture stimulation along the horizontal section of the well will also be considered.
The condensate and gas recoveries from this zone are encouraging being the first conclusive test of this lower zone within the Sugarkane Austin Chalk. - Web Site

MARINE PHOSPHATE SAMPLING PLANS WELL ADVANCED
In light of the recent suspension of joint mining operations with DFI, Bonaparte Diamond Mines NL (ASX code: BON) ("Bonaparte or the Company") announces that its marine activities will now focus on development of its phosphate project. Planning is at an advanced stage for systematic sampling of phosphatic seabed sediments in the 1000km2 Meob Project area (EPL3323) for commencement mid 2008. A scoping study and initial mineral resource are expected by the end of 2008.
The Company's exploration target for EPL3323 is 40 to 50 million tonnes of unconsolidated phosphatic sediment with a grade of 10-15% P2O5. A preliminary process flowsheet is being investigated incorporating conventional suction dredging and simple onshore beneficiation with the objective of producing 3 million tonnes of enhanced grade (up to 35%) rock phosphate per annum.
The preliminary sampling by Bonaparte during 2007 showed phosphate grades in EPL3323 (1000km2 area) to be consistent with historic sampling and demonstrated potential for enrichment to commercial grades (up to 35% P2O5)..... - Web Site
BONAPARTE DIAMOND MINES AND DIAMOND FIELDS INTERNATIONAL CONCLUDE CURRENT PHASE OF JOINT VENTURE MARINE DIAMOND MINING OPERATIONS
Bonaparte Diamond Mines NL (ASX code BON) and Diamond Fields International Ltd. (TSX code: DFI) jointly announce that they have completed the current phase of joint mining operations in the Dias Reef operations area within DFI's ML111 mining licence offshore Namibia.
Despite record sale prices and some recent vessel operating improvements achieved by the marine team, sharp increases in fuel and certain other supplies have led the parties to conclude that the economic return of mining the resources so far identified within the joint operation area does not warrant moving into the next phase of joint operations.
Remaining resources in the joint operations area will be available for future mining should the economics warrant.
Bonaparte's offshore activities will now focus on development of its Namibian marine phosphate project. An update in this regard will follow shortly. - Web Site

SAMSON OIL & GAS LIMITED PROVIDES OPERATIONAL ADVICE ON STATE GC #2
Denver 1600 hours May 26, Perth 0700 hours May 27 2008
STATE GC#2 (Working Interest SSN 37%, Net Revenue Interest 28.3%) The State GC #2 well has been fracture stimulated in the lower of two zones of the Lower Leonard over the interval 11,347 to 11,470 feet on Friday May 16th. The stimulation used 56,000 gallons to place 68,000 pounds of sand. The frac string was then recovered and production tubing run and the well flowed and swabbed to recover the frac fluids. The production operations commenced on Friday May 17th and continued up until Saturday May 24th, at which point the well has been placed on production using a plunger lift system.
As expected the initial swab runs were composed of stimulation fluids but during the course of the swabbing operation the oil cut has increased and the final swab run ahead of placing the well on production using a plunger lift system was 90 percent oil. The swab rate was at a nominal 180 BOPD. This rate is however only indicative as this particular swab operation was restricted to a 4 hour period. However, during the prior operational day, the oil rate over a longer, 8 hour period was at a rate of 174 BOPD.
A significant volume of stimulation fluid has yet to be recovered (approximately 1260 barrels) and, until the majority of this fluid is recovered, the oil rate cannot be established, however the well performance would generally be expected to improve as these fluids are recovered. The plunger lift system will enable the remaining frac fluids to be recovered on a continuous basis, which will enable a better view as to the long term potential of this zone. - Web Site
