QGC WELCOMES $5 MILLION GRANT FOR COAL SEAM WATER STUDY
Queensland Gas Company Managing Director Richard Cottee has welcomed the Queensland Government's announcement of a $5 million grant for a feasibility study into the use of water produced from coal seam gas (CSG) extraction.
"This is a far-sighted and timely allocation of funds to benefit all Queenslanders who use water," Mr Cottee said today.
Premier Anna Bligh announced the grant following the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) meeting in Sydney yesterday.
Ms Bligh said Queensland's $510 million share of Federal funding would go toward the purchase of water entitlements and improving water efficiency in the Queensland section of the Murray-Darling Basin.
Some $5 million was set aside for a detailed feasibility study to examine the use of coal seam gas water. - Web Site
QGC ACHIEVES FURTHER INCREASE IN RESERVES
Queensland Gas Company has exceeded interim estimates of its Proved, Probable and Possible reserves, following analysis and final confirmation by independent certifiers, Netherland, Sewell & Associates.
The numbers as of 30 June 2008 confirm 1P (Proved) reserves at 609 petajoules (PJ), 2P (Proved and Probable) reserves at 2,415 PJ, and 3P (Proved, Probable and Possible) reserves at 7,163 PJ.
BG Group, which is partnering QGC in the Queensland Curtis LNG Project to export liquefied natural gas from Gladstone, owns 20 per cent of the reserves.
QGC Managing Director Richard Cottee said the increases in reserves provide further proof of the world-class quality of the Walloon Fairway. QGC foreshadowed the increases on 19 June 2008 in interim estimates in the leadup to the release by QGC of a bidder's statement for a friendly takeover of Roma Petroleum.
Mr Cottee said that by 30 June 2009 about $500 million will have been spent on the exploration and development of QGC's assets across the Walloon Fairway, involving drill stem tests, core holes and pilot testing. - Web Site

HAMMER HILL JV, NORTHERN TERRITORY
Mithril Resources has announced, an exploration update on the Hammer Hill project.
The Hammer Hill JV is located 250 km NNW of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. Under the terms of the farm-in BHP Billiton and Mithril are currently earning up to a 70% interest in tenements held by Arafura (ARU:ASX 03/12/07). The project is prospective for base metal mineralisation.
Three drill holes were completed in the project area, associated with airborne geophysical target IVT016 (Figure 1). The results are summarised below (Figure 2):
Additional geophysical surveys conducted in all three drill holes yielded considerable off-hole target responses. These surveys suggest that significant sulphide mineralisation can be expected to extend for some distance to the north and south of the drill holes.
Mithril believes that potential exists for base metal mineralisation in the Hammer Hill project area and looks forward to further encouraging results from ongoing exploration. Mithril also notes that several priority airborne electromagnetic targets remain untested (Figure 1). - Web Site

Wall Street capped a shortened trading week (Independence Day tomorrow) with a mixed finish Thursday after some uneven economic data: news of a contraction in the nation's services sector and a tame reading on employment. But stocks still had their third dismal week in a row, with the major indexes again posting losses as worries about rising oil prices and the fallout from the credit crisis dogged the market.
The government reported that 62,000 jobs were lost in June - close to economists' forecasts.
Declining issues outnumbered advancers by about 2 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 3.19 billion shares.
Crude oil rose above $145 a barrel to a record amid signs global demand for fuels, particularly from China, may strain supplies.
Oil prices might have gone even higher Thursday were it not for a sharp gain by the US dollar against the euro. The greenback strengthened considerably after the European Central Bank raised interest rates by a quarter point as expected but did not signal additional rate hikes that might further boost the 15-nation European currency.
U.S. copper futures gave up a large part of their steep day-earlier gains following Thursday's release of gloomy U.S. employment data and ECB president Trichet's comments suggesting European interest rates would hold steady, which boosted the US dollar.
Gold and silver futures fell after the US dollar rebounded against the euro, eroding the appeal of precious metals as alternative investments.

DRILLING REPORT - 3 July 2008
WELL NAME: Cobra 1A, PNG
Oil Search reports that at 0600 on 3 July, the Cobra 1A well was at its target depth of 3,202 metres having drilled through the target Iagifu sandstone reservoir in 6" hole. The rig is now pulling out of hole and is preparing to conduct the planned open hole logging program in order to evaluate the Hedinia and Iagifu reservoir intervals.
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. - Web Site

Shougang Investment
Prosperity Resources Limited (ASX: PSP) wishes to advise that Shougang Holding (Hong Kong) Limited's Subscription Agreement has lapsed, as a result of not obtaining the necessary Foreign Investment Review Board ‘FIRB' confirmation by 30th June, 2008.
Current Australian Government policy on foreign investment in the Australian resources sector, especially sovereign entities controlling Australian assets, appears to be under review.
Prosperity Resources Ltd's Chairman/Managing Director, Mr Mo Munshi said "Whilst this outcome is disappointing that the strategic alliance with Shougang can not occur at this time, the Company will now be seeking non-government-owned corporate partners with regards to advancing its iron ore assets."
"The Company has sufficient cash to continue with its planned 6000m drilling programme at the Tennant Creek Goldfield, commencing this month and progress its other exploration programmes." - Web Site

Drilling to Commence on Priority Targets at Tennant Creek Goldfield
Prosperity Resources Limited (ASX: PSP) is pleased to announce that it has secured a deep capacity RC drilling rig to commence a 6000m drilling programme on its priority targets in the Tennant Creek Goldfield in the Northern Territory.
Numerous encouraging results from initial rock chip survey with gold grades up to 161 g/t and significant anomalous copper and bismuth grades.
Given these very encouraging results and our target generation work from detailed geophysics, a drilling rig has been secured for a 6000m RC program at Tennant Creek starting in mid July 2008.
Approvals for the exploration programme have been granted by the Northern Territory's Department of Primary Industry, Fisheries and Mines.
Prosperity Resources Ltd's Chairman/Managing Director, Mr Mo Munshi said "This upcoming drilling programme allows the Company to bring together nearly 6 months of exploration work that has focused on target generation within the Tennant Creek Goldfield." - Web Site

DRILLING COMMENCES AT TEIXEIRINHA
Ashburton is pleased to announce that drilling has commenced over the Teixeirinha gold prospect, within the Company's Cuiaba Gold Project in Brazil.
This initial drilling programme at Teixeirinha (pron. Tey-zhe-rinya) is designed to test the two high order soil anomalies at the southern end of the Teixeirinha system. At this point, the western anomaly is 500 m wide and up to 365 ppb Au, and the eastern anomaly is 800 m wide and up to 841 ppb Au (please refer to ASX announcement of 1st July). The gold-in-soil system is continuous for over 3 km and remains open to the south.
Drilling will comprise a line of 60 m - 80 m deep angled RAB (rotary air blast) holes for a total of around 1,500 m of drilling. The drilling will be carried out by the Transdrill rig, which is now equipped with a brand new compressor rated at up to 900 cfm @ 350 psi, thus providing sufficient air to drill holes to around 150 m deep, if required. - Web Site

Weekly Project Update
Project: West Wharton
Prospect: Stewart
Well: Stewart-1
Wharton County, Texas, CICO Oil and Gas Operator, Antares 26.25% Working Interest
Testing of the Jackson sand continues with the well currently shut-in, to assess pressure build up.
Whilst the outcome of the testing of this shallow secondary objective is unknown, please note that the significance of the test is at best to repay part or possibly all of the capital deployed in the well.
The joint venture continues to pursue the original deeper primary objective, similar to that
currently in production in the nearby Outlar-1 well as follows:
1. Assess whether a sidetrack of approximately 900 feet from the current well to a re-assessed target is the most attractive way forward. Please note that if the Jackson test is successful, a sidetrack could not be undertaken while the Jackson sand is in production;
2. Assess the success of the sidetrack if undertaken;
3. Assess drilling another Stewart well in a preferred location if a sidetrack is not undertaken or if a sidetrack is undertaken yet is unsuccessful and cannot be put into production.- Web Site

Nido Weekly Operations Update to 2 July 2008
Nido Petroleum Limited (Nido) is pleased to provide this update on its operational activities, offshore Palawan Basin, the Philippines.
SC54 Drilling Operations
On 2 July 2008, Nido and its Joint Venture partner, Kairiki Energy Limited, commenced operations in Service Contract 54 with the start of the site survey program. This is being undertaken in anticipation of drilling two firm wells with the WilBoss jack-up rig later this year in the shallow water area of Service Contract 54. The survey will also cover the deeper water Gindara prospect which will be drilled in 2009. In total, eight areas will be surveyed for potential hazards and shallow gas with both analogue and digital grids to evaluate the sea bed and subsurface at possible drilling locations. An environmental base line study will also be conducted as part of Nido’s health, safety and environment focus. The site survey vessel Baruna Jaya (pictured below) has been contracted through Fugro Survey Pte Ltd and the work is scheduled to take four weeks, depending on weather conditions......
Galoc Development Project
As reported last week, the local effects of Typhoon Fengshen at the Galoc site resulted in the temporary stoppage of commissioning activities and subsequent safe disconnection of the FPSO. With conditions improving markedly over the last week, the FPSO was mobilised back to the Galoc field on Tuesday, 1 July and is scheduled to commence re-connection procedures today. Once reconnection has been made, a full systems safety and integrity check will be undertaken prior to first oil production. - Web Site

PROMINENT HILL PROJECT UPDATE - EXPLORATION SUCCESS, PROJECT MILESTONES ACHIEVED
Recent drilling completed west of the pit at Oxiana's Prominent Hill copper-gold project in South Australia has highlighted significant potential for the discovery of an additional deposit close to existing infrastructure. Several major milestones for the project, which is nearing completion, have also been achieved, including connection of both water and power supply to the site and the arrival of the SAG mill at port in South Australia. Construction remains on schedule, with commissioning and first production due in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Prominent Hill is a very important project for the new company formed through the recent merger of Oxiana and fellow mining company Zinifex Limited. In 2009 it will increase the Group's copper production by 110,000 to 120,000 tonnes and gold production by 75,000ounces to 85,000ounces and will be a significant new source of cash flow.
Including Prominent Hill on a proforma basis at current commodity prices, copper will account for around 50% of total Company revenue, with the remainder coming from production of zinc, gold, nickel, lead and silver...... - Web Site

Lacerta Development Drilling Underway
Sunshine Gas Limited (ASX Code: SHG) is pleased to advise that Phase I development drilling at the Company's Lacerta Coal Seam Gas (CSG) field near Roma is underway and delivering encouraging results.
Mitchell Rig 101 is currently mobilising to development well CS47, the fourth of forty development wells planned in the south-eastern portion of the Lacerta field.
Sunshine Gas Managing Director Mr Tony Gilby said the Company had been employing a new well completion technique developed to optimise gas flows from the Walloon coal seams.
"Preliminary results have been in-line with pre-drill expectations and wells to date have showed strong free gas flows to surface during clean-up," Mr Gilby said.
"These early results are an endorsement of the new completion technique the Company has been developing throughout our appraisal drilling program." ...... - Web Site

Wall Street resumed its sell-off Wednesday after oil hit a new record and a bearish analyst report renewed concerns that General Motors Corp. could run out of cash.
The stock market's pullback, which accelerated in the final hours of the week's last full trading session, left the Dow Jones industrial average officially in bear market territory, with the blue chips having fallen more than 20 percent from their October highs. The Dow now stands 20.82 percent below its Oct. 9, 2007 record of 14,164.53.
Declining issues outpaced advancers by nearly 3 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 5.15 billion shares, compared with 5.75 billion shares traded Tuesday.
In Europe the European Central Bank is expected to lift rates tonight by 0.25% to 4.25%.
This rate decision could change the dynamics of markets in Europe, the US, Australia and Asia. A rate of 4.25% from the ECB, compared to 2% from the US Federal Reserve, has the potential to cause more damage to the US dollar, drive commodity prices even higher, especially oil, and further boost inflation.
Oil surged to new records above $144 a barrel as the government reported a bigger-than-expected drop in U.S. supplies and as investors worried about tensions in the Middle East.
Copper jumped to a record in London and closed at the highest ever in New York as a slumping US dollar and surging energy costs spurred demand for commodities as a hedge against inflation.
Lead fell to the lowest in 16 months on the London Metal Exchange after stockpiles more than doubled.
The spot price for coal fell about 10%.

Drilling Results and Plans
Drilling Details
After encountering live oil shows, Mailisu III Well #5 has been completed and wireline logs run. A cement bond log has indicated a poor bond between the cement and the casing and remedial work is required before a production testing. Equipment to rectify this and a similar cementing problem in Mailisu III Well #2 is being sourced and a review of available cementing contractors is in progress to avoid similar problems in future.
An upgrade of the Caspian rig has commenced to bring it up to the standard required to drill deeper wells. As previously advised, Caspian is in discussions with JSC South Petroleum Company (‘SPC') (70% owned by Santos International Holdings Pty Ltd (‘Santos')) with respect to the possibility of drilling a number of exploration wells to depths of up to 2,000m on the Sok and Tuzluk licence areas which are operated by SPC (see Figure 1).
While the arrangement is still under negotiation and there is no guarantee that a deal will be finalised, this opportunity, which would see Caspian receive a share of Santos's notional entitlement to SPC cash flow from a successful development, is considered sufficiently attractive for Caspian to carry out the rig upgrade in anticipation of a favourable outcome. Timing issues dictate that Caspian be in a position to start drilling by October if an arrangement is concluded with Santos.
It is planned to take a break from the rig upgrade work to drill the West Mailisu #1 well later in July to complete the initial appraisal programme for the Mailisu III oil field before the rig is deployed to the southern prospects. West Mailisu #1 will test the presence of oil on the western flank of the Mailisu III structure, some 3km west of earlier drilling. This is considered to be a higher risk well, but if successful, it would significantly expand the resource potential of the field. Caspian is arranging for a contractor to continue drilling shallow wells on its East Mailisu, Mailisu III and Charvak licence areas from September.
Well Testing
Mailisu Well #4 is producing at approximately eight barrels of oil per day from initial pump testing. - Web Site

ORE EXPOSED AT TRIAL MINE AT CAIRN HILL
Diversified resources company IMX Resources NL (ASX:IXR) has exposed the ore over the base of the pit at the trial mine at its Cairn Hill project in South Australia - another milestone on its path to iron ore production.
IMX commenced trial mining last month, which is providing valuable information that will assist in the final planning for the main operations. Full scale mining is expected to commence in late Q3 2008 at the high grade project, 55 kilometres south-east of Coober Pedy.
The overburden has proved to be more consolidated that initially envisaged which potentially will allow for steeper batter angles and require less overburden to be stripped.
The ore will now be drilled and blasted which will also provide information for the optimisation of the mining technique for the full scale mining operations. The trial mine will produce approximately 20,000 tonnes of ROM ore that will that will be crushed and available for bulk samples. - Web Site

The Marley-2 exploration well is located in permit TL/5, part of the Harriet Joint Venture, at a surface location of latitude 20°25'24.00"S and longitude 115°41'25.01"E within the Barrow sub-basin. It is approximately 3.5 kilometres west-southwest of the existing Campbell Platform and 143 metres north of Marley-1. Water depth is 43 metres.
Progress
Marley-2 was spudded at 06.30hrs on Tuesday 22nd April. Drilling has progressed to a depth of 4,024 mMD and an intermediate logging run has been conducted at this depth. Preliminary interpretation of this data suggests Marley-2 has penetrated the main objective, with indications of gas and reservoir sands observed throughout. However the data available does not yet confirm whether the reservoir is permeable and effective or tight and non-productive.
Drilling has recommenced and it is anticipated that reaching the programmed total depth of 4,100 mTVD will take approximately 2 days after which a comprehensive logging programme will be undertaken.
Tap Comment
The intermediate results of Marley-2 offer some encouragement but remain ambiguous. A critical risk for the Marley prospect was the possibility that at this burial depth the reservoir would be tight and non-productive. The full logging suite to be acquired at TD will give a better understanding of both the reservoir quality and gas saturation. - Web Site

Main Pass 19 Oil Storage Facilities Operational
Petsec Energy Ltd (ASX: PSA; ADRs: PSJEY.PK)
Petsec Energy announced that it has successfully installed a 3,000 barrel oil storage tank adjacent to the Main Pass 19 platform. Two Main Pass 19 wells and the Main Pass 18 No. 6 well are currently producing gas and flowing approximately 150 barrels of oil per day into the storage tank. Petsec is currently recompleting three additional Main Pass 19 wells; recompletion operations should be complete in 7 to 10 days.
Petsec installed the oil storage tank to accommodate the higher than expected oil production rates from its Main Pass 18 & 19 fields. The 3,000 barrel tank will allow Petsec to increase production rates in the two fields and not suffer frequent shut-ins due to lack of oil storage.
Petsec owns a 55% working interest (45.83% NRI) in the Main Pass 19 wells and a 100% working interest (83.33% NRI) in the Main Pass 18 no. 6 well. - Web Site
Update on Main Pass 270 Field Production
Petsec Energy Ltd (ASX: PSA; ADRs: PSJEY.PK)
Petsec Energy today advised that its Main Pass 270 field briefly resumed production on 24 June 2008. Two wells were flowing at reduced rates and while bringing the third well into production downstream, a third party operator discovered a leak in its pipeline at the Main Pass 133 platform. All upstream production, including Petsec's Main Pass 270 field, is now shut in due to the leak.
Production from Main Pass 270 flows by pipeline to Main Pass 133 where the oil and gas are separated and commingled with production from other fields and delivered into respective sales lines. The previous interruption was caused by blockage in the downstream oil sales trunkline. The pipeline operator redirected production around the blockage in the downstream sales line to resolve that problem.
The newly discovered leak is above water in the oil sales line leaving the Main Pass 133 platform. The operator is currently inspecting the line and determining how best to fix the leak. Until we receive additional information, Petsec cannot announce a timeline for production to again commence. - Web Site

Wall Street began the third quarter with an erratic session and modest gain Tuesday after a mix of news made it clear the country is still deep in economic problems but may have some positive trends -- including some better than expected sales for General Motors Corp.
Declining issues led advancers by just under a 2 to 1 margin on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 5.75 billion shares, up from Monday's 4.91 billion.
Starbucks Corp. said Tuesday it will close 600 company-operated stores in the next year (about 12,000 workers will be affected), up dramatically from its previous plan for 100 closures, a sign the coffee shop operator is still feeling the pain from the faltering U.S. economy.
Oil settled at a new record of $140.97 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange after rising above $143 a barrel earlier as worries about tight supply and mounting tensions in the Middle East continued - ABC News reported Israel is increasingly likely to attack Iran this year.
Platinum rose in New York, gaining for the second straight day on plans by Lonmin Plc, the world's third-biggest producer, to shut a smelter furnace, fueling concerns of a widening shortage. Palladium also gained.

SURGING COOPER/EROMANGA BASIN OIL PRODUCTION FOR BEACH
Beach Petroleum Limited today announced record oil production from its Cooper- Eromanga Basins assets for the 2007-08 financial year and expects its assets in Australia's flagship onshore oil province to deliver even higher output in 2008-09.
The oil and gas group is also forecasting further significant growth in its Queensland coal seam gas assets.
Beach (ASX: "BPT") said today that its record 2007-08 Cooper/Eromanga basin oil production achieved in the current financial year was partnered by an increase in the company's oil reserves in the basin.
Beach's preliminary figures announced today for the current financial year, which ends today, showed an 18% rise in Cooper/Eromanga oil production to a record 2.0 million barrels of oil (mmb) - up from 1.6 mmb in 2006-07.
Propelling the Company's onshore oil output from for the new financial year commencing tomorrow will be the first full year's production from the Parsons oil field (Beach 75%) to the west of Moomba.
The Parsons-1 well, which only commenced production this month, has averaged gross production of about 1,600 barrels of oil per day (bopd) with initial volumes trucked to Tantanna. Production will eventually be tied via flowline to Beach's Callawonga pipeline, due to commence first deliveries from next month south to Port Bonython.
Despite the record onshore oil production, Beach's 2007-08 success has enabled the Company to lift Cooper/Eromanga oil reserves by 27% to above 15 mmb, from 12 mmb at 30 June 2007. - Web Site

SAMSON OIL & GAS LIMITED PROVIDES OPERATIONAL ADVICE ON SABRETOOTH AND STATE GC #2
SABRETOOTH PROSPECT (DAVIS BINTLIFF#1) (Working Interest 12.5%, Net Revenue Interest 9%)
As previously reported, the Sabretooth prospect has begun its evaluation through the drilling of a well named the Davis Bintliff #1 in Brazoria County, Texas. This well spudded on June 18th, 2008 and, as of today at 0600 hours, was drilling ahead at 4,000 feet. The well is being deviated to a subsurface target 14,600 feet true vertical depth and 15,655 feet measured depth to the north east of the surface location, the measured depth to the top of the Vicksburg target is 14,905 feet being a true vertical depth of 13,610 feet. It is expected that the target will be intersected mid to late August.
STATE GC#2 (Working Interest 37%, Net Revenue Interest 28.3%)
When the State GC #2 well was logged three potential pay intervals where determined as follows:
Lower part of the Lower Leonard (54 feet of perforated pay);
Upper part of the Lower Leonard (39 feet of perforated pay); and
Bone Springs Formation (189 feet of potential pay requiring evaluation)
Completion operations have been designed to test each of these intervals sequentially to ensure that when the well is finally completed, the contribution from each zone can be quantified and that if any water flow is encountered, it can be indentified and if necessary remediated. - Web Site
SAMSON OIL & GAS LIMITED TO DRILL A BAKKEN FORMATION WELL IN NORTH DAKOTA
Samson Oil & Gas Limited currently produces around 100 BOPD (gross) from a horizontal well placed in the Bluell Formation of the North Harstad oil field which is located in the central part of the Williston Basin. This well has been on production for 15 months and has demonstrated the productive capacity of this formation such that development wells adjacent to this location are being planned as part of Samson's effort to enlarge its oil production profile to take advantage of the exceptional oil price that is currently in effect.
In addition to this Bluell activity Samson has received a proposal from the operator of the field to drill a Bakken Formation well. This well is proposed to be drilled to a vertical depth of 11,335 feet, plugged back and then drilled horizontally for 4,800 feet in the middle Bakken zone. The Bakken zone is planned to be stimulated using state of the art technology which will include external casing packers such that the well is stimulated along its entire horizontal length. Samson has 50% equity in the well and is looking to reduce this equity by way of farmout where it would retain 31.25% equity in the well. Samson's participation in this well will depend on the successful marketing of this property which is now underway.
The well is expected to spud mid-August, subject to rig availability. - Web Site

Wall Street ended a grueling first half quietly Monday, closing mixed as investors again based their trades on what has become the dominant force in the market: the price of oil.
Declining issues outpaced advancers by about 8 to 7 on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 4.91 billion shares, compared to 5.74 billion on Friday.
The major indexes closed out the first six months of 2008 with double digit declines, and are perilously close to the levels of a bear market.
For the first half, the Dow is down 14.44 percent; the S&P lost 12.83 percent; and the Nasdaq has fallen 13.55 percent.
Crude oil was little changed after initially rising to a record above $143 a barrel on concern Israel may attack Iran over its nuclear program and disrupt supply from OPEC's second-largest producer.

APPOINTMENT OF GENERAL MANAGER - EXPLORATION
Beaconsfield Gold (ASX: BCD) is very pleased to announce the appointment of Mr Peter Thompson as General Manager - Exploration. Mr Thompson will commence his role on 18 August 2008.
Mr Thompson has gained extensive and relevant experience in both exploration and mining during a successful career of twenty years. His contribution to the growth of Beaconsfield Gold will be particularly important as exploration is accelerated, both in Tasmania and at Stavely in Western Victoria where exciting high grade copper mineralisation, with associated nickel, gold and silver, has been discovered at Thursday's Gossan.
Previously employed by St Barbara Limited as General Manager Exploration, Mr Thompson has also held senior exploration roles with Jubilee Mines NL, Anaconda Nickel Ltd and Western Mining Corporation. In addition to being responsible for the discovery of several nickel and gold deposits, he has extensive corporate development experience which will be valuable to Beaconsfield Gold as it pursues its growth strategy.
Mr Thompson graduated with an honours degree in geology from Trinity College, Dublin in 1986. He also has a Masters in Mineral Exploration and Mining Geology from Leicester University.
Beaconsfield Gold CEO Mr Bill Colvin said that the Company was delighted to welcome Mr Thompson to the executive team. "The timing of Mr Thompson's appointment is opportune with the ramp-up of production at the Beaconsfield Mine progressing well and work on an exciting portfolio of exploration prospects about to be accelerated. Mr Thompson's demonstrated success in leading exploration programs and increasing mineral inventory will be particularly relevant as extensions and repeats of the Tasmania Reef are sought at Beaconsfield. Mr Thompson will also lead the drill-out of the Thursdays Gossan copper prospect in Western Victoria." Mr Colvin said.

Arrow - AGL joint venture sells North Queensland Gas Pipeline
Arrow Energy Ltd (Arrow) and its 50/50 joint venture partner, AGL Energy Limited (AGL), have entered into a sale and purchase agreement with Victorian Funds Management Corporation (VFMC) for the sale of the North Queensland Gas Pipeline (NQGP1) for a total consideration of approximately $205 million2 (Arrow share $102.5 million).
This sale follows the purchase by Arrow and AGL of the Enertrade gas assets (NQGP, Moranbah gas compression facilities, Central Queensland Gas Pipeline development opportunity and North Queensland Gas Merchant Business) in November 2007 for approximately $280m (Arrow share $140m), and relates to the on-sale of the North Queensland gas pipeline asset only. The Arrow/AGL JV will retain ownership of the Central Queensland Gas Pipeline development opportunity and the gas processing and compression facilities located at Moranbah, which will be integrated into the Moranbah Gas Project infrastructure and operated by Arrow. The Arrow/AGL JV ownership of the North Queensland Gas Merchant Business acquired from Enertrade which includes the right to toll gas through and dispatch electricity from the 230MW Yabulu Power Station in Townsville and the wholesale supply of gas to Queensland Nickel and Copper Refineries also remains unchanged by this transaction. - Web Site
Austpac Licences the LTR Process for use in Africa
Austpac is pleased to announce that BHP Billiton has licensed the Company's LTR (Low Temperature Roasting) technology for use in Africa. The licence is non-exclusive and licence fees are based on the gross sales revenue from any LTR Plant that BHP Billiton builds to process ilmenite concentrate.
The LTR process has been developed by Austpac to upgrade contaminated ilmenite concentrates. The process uses controlled fluid bed roasting at less than 700°C to enhance the magnetic susceptibility of the ilmenite so it can be easily separated from less magnetic, deleterious gangue minerals, such as chromite. LTR-roasted ilmenite is still soluble in sulphuric acid, and can therefore be used to produce TiO2 pigment via the "sulfate" process. If ilmenite is roasted at high temperature, as is the normal procedure, the titania component is insoluble in acid and it is unsuitable for making TiO2 pigment....... - Web Site

Austpac Share Placement Raises $5.7 million
Austpac is pleased to announce that the Company has completed a private placement of 57,000,000 ordinary fully paid shares at 10 cents each to raise $5.7 million. 30,000,000 shares were placed with BHP Billiton, and 27,000,000 shares were placed with professional investors. The funds will be used to commence a detailed engineering study into a 60,000 tpa commercial ERMS SR plant and for working capital.
The placement increases BHP Billiton's holding in Austpac to a total of 55,000,000 shares, which represents 7.25% of the Company. BHP Billiton remains Austpac's largest shareholder.
The 3,000 tpa ERMS SR Demonstration Plant at Newcastle is roasting a total of 720 tonnes of ilmenite concentrate; 150 tonnes from Consolidated Rutile's Stradbroke Island operations, 500 tonnes from Bemax's Murray Basin operations, and 70 tonnes from BHP Billiton's Corridor Sands deposit in Mozambique. By September 2008, a total of 300 tonnes of synrutile and 200 tonnes of iron pellets will have been produced. This will demonstrate the suitability of the ERMS SR process for upgrading these types of ilmenite to high grade synrutile and an iron pellet co-product. BHP Billiton has a licence to use the ERMS SR process in Africa...... - Web Site

EPA RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF SOUTHDOWN IRON ORE PROJECT
Grange Resources Limited (ASX: GRR) is pleased to advise that the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) Bulletin for its Southdown Magnetite iron ore project was released today. Publication of the EPA Bulletin marks an important milestone in the development of the Southdown Project, which is targeting production of up to 7 million tonnes per annum of premium quality magnetite concentrate from 2012.
The Bulletin provides advice and recommendations from the EPA on the proposed development of the Southdown mine, the pipeline to the Port of Albany and the infrastructure required at the Albany Port for magnetite concentrate storage. The EPA has concluded that it is unlikely that its objectives would be compromised provided there is satisfactory implementation of its recommended conditions and procedures. The EPA has recommended approval of the project to the Minister for the Environment with those conditions and procedures.
Grange Resources Managing Director Russell Clark said the release of the Bulletin was the culmination of extensive studies and submissions to the EPA and is a major milestone and a major step forward in the development of the Southdown Project.....- Web Site

ROE HILLS NICKEL FARM IN and JOINT VENTURE
DIAMOND DRILLING TO COMMENCE EM SURVEY UNDERWAY
Oroya Mining Limited's farm in and joint venture partner in the Roe Hills Nickel Project, Vale Inco, a wholly owned subsidiary of Vale, has advised that approximately 1,300 metres of diamond drilling is scheduled to commence on 10th July 2008.
As previously announced, 8 drill holes were pre-collared by reverse circulation drilling in December 2007. Diamond drilling was delayed due to the unavailability of the designated drill rig.
The drilling targets are strike extensions of Kambalda-style nickel sulphides intersected at the Talc Lake Prospect in previous drilling (holes ROE114 and ORTL1 to ORTL3) and a nearby Moving Loop Electromagnetic (MLEM) anomaly with a strike length of 600 metres (RH1 anomaly).
At the RH2 Anomaly located 1.5 kilometres to the south of the Talc Lake prospect, modelling of the electromagnetic data showed discrete steeply dipping target zones that may represent nickel sulphide lodes. Fixed Loop EM will be completed over the RH2 anomaly to obtain better definition of the conductors before planned follow-up drilling.
Ground EM (MLEM) has commenced at Roe 1 and north of Talc Lake to investigate the presence of nickel sulphides in potentially favourable ultramafic stratigraphy. - Web Site

TARGET STRIKES OIL AT EAST CHALKLEY
Target Energy Limited ("Target") (ASX CODE: TEX) is pleased to advise that the drilling at East Chalkley (TEX 25%) has reached Total Depth at 2,974.9 metres and wire line logging indicates the presence of oil pay.
MD Laurence Roe stated, "With oil over US$140/barrel, success at East Chalkley will be very positive for Target's cash flow and earnings per share. We'll provide further guidance to the market once the well at East Chalkley (Pine Pasture #2) has been flow tested and the results analysed."
Initial log analysis has identified approximately 9.5 metres of net oil pay in the Alliance W2 sand at 2,923.0 metres (measured depth), which is in line with our pre-drill expectations. Additional potential pay has also been recognised in the above-lying Alliance W1 sands.
Measured Depth (metres) / Zone / Net pay
2,890.1 / Alliance W1 / 3.4 metres
2,923.0 / Alliance W2 / 9.5 metres
The well is to be completed as an oil producer from the W2 sand, with completion and flow-testing of the well expected to be underway in approximately two weeks....... - Web Site
