Wall Street joined stock markets around the world in a huge selloff Friday, sending major market indexes to their lowest levels in more than five years on the belief that a punishing economic recession is at hand.
Investors were nervous going into the session after U.S. stock futures -- the bets traders place on where the market will go -- fell so sharply before Friday's opening bell that selling halts were imposed.
The pullback on Wall Street, while steep, wasn't as bad as some observers had feared after stocks plunged overseas in response to another round of grim corporate news. Sony's profit warning sent its shares tumbling in Japan (Japan's Nikkei stock average fell a staggering 9.60 percent) and offered only the latest example that companies are girding for a slowing economy and a pullback among consumers worried about falling home prices and losses on their investments.
And in Germany, Daimler's stock fell sharply after the automaker reported lower third-quarter earnings and abandoned its 2008 profit and revenue forecast. That followed news in the U.S. late Thursday from Microsoft Corp., which issued a weaker-than-expected forecast for its fiscal second quarter, pointing to the economy; other big U.S. companies have scaled back their forecasts as they announced third-quarter earnings.
Friday's finish was the lowest for the Dow since April 25, 2003, when it ended at 8,306.35. For the S&P 500, it was the lowest ending since April 11, 2003, when the index finished at 868.30. It was the Nasdaq's lowest close since a May 23, 2003, finish of 1,510.09.
The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies ended Friday down 18.80, or 3.84 percent, at 471.12.
Declining issues outpaced advancers by about 5 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came to 1.58 billion shares, sloghtly down from Thursday.
For the week, the Dow fell 5.35 percent, the S&P 500 lost 6.78 percent and the Nasdaq fell 9.31 percent. The week's selling left the Dow down 40.9 percent from its Oct. 9, 2007, record close of 14,164.53, while the S&P 500 is off 44 percent from its peak of a year ago. The Nasdaq is down 45.7 percent.
Light, sweet crude fell $4.21 to $63.63 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The sell-off, another sign that investors fear a severe recession, came despite OPEC's announcement that it will cut production by 1.5 million barrels a day in a bid to shore up sagging prices.
Copper was poised for its biggest weekly decline since 1986 and aluminum dropped the most in two years as consumer demand for cars and houses crumbles amid the widening world economic slowdown.
Nickel jumped in London after Brazil's Cia. Vale do Rio Doce said it was cutting production and may delay new mines.
Gold futures briefly fell to their lowest level in 21 months Friday as the US dollar strengthened and the drop in the world's stock markets led investors to sell commodities to offset massive losses in equities. Gold regained much of what it lost later in the day though prices remain down by about 20 percent since the start of the month.
The US dollar has risen as a safety holding despite fears about the U.S. economy. Investors appear more worried about the stability of emerging markets. That's hurting the euro and the Australian dollar.

Interim Management Statement and Dividend Details
Anglo Pacific Group PLC ("Anglo Pacific Group", "the "Group"), the natural resources royalty company, today releases its interim management statement for the period from 1st July 2008 to 23rd October 2008.
Material Events and Transactions
During the period Anglo Pacific Group agreed a 2.5% escalating gold royalty with Mundo Minerals Ltd on its producing Engenho mine in Brazil for A$4.0 million. Following the acquisition of the Kinbauri gold royalty earlier in the year, this confirms the Group's policy of supporting companies which have good management and an increasing resource base.
The Group realised gains of over £4 million during the period. As at 23rd October 2008 the value of the Group's quoted strategic investments had fallen significantly in line with the rest of the mining sector.
Financial Performance
During this period coal royalty receipts increased sharply compared to the previous six months.
Financial Position and Interim Dividend
The Group's liquidity position remains strong with no borrowings.
An interim dividend of 3.45p net per ordinary share (2007 Interim: 3.00p net), representing an increase of 15.0%, will be paid to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 7th November 2008. The shares will be quoted ex dividend in London on 5th November 2008 and in Australia on 3rd November 2008 and the dividend will be paid on 7th January 2009. Shareholders will again be given the opportunity to elect to receive a scrip dividend instead of cash.
Outlook
Recent banking and market problems have made the raising of mining finance from conventional lenders increasingly difficult. In this environment, Anglo Pacific Group, with its healthy liquidity level and continuing strong cashflow, remains well positioned to secure new royalties. - Web Site

Termination of Sale of Mount Oxide
The Directors of Chalice Gold Mines Limited ("Chalice") have advised Perilya that due to the severe downturn in capital markets and the recent substantial fall in copper price, in exercising their respective fiduciary duties they cannot recommend that Chalice Shareholders approve the acquisition of Perilya's Mount Oxide Copper Project in its current form. - Web Site
New Managing Director for Perilya to Drive Shareholder Value
Perilya (ASX:PEM), the New South Wales zinc and lead miner today announced the proposed appointment of Paul Arndt as Managing Director. Mr Arndt is currently Executive General Manager Operations.
Just eight months after his Executive General Manager appointment, Mr Arndt has been instrumental in driving down operating costs, while optimising production at Broken Hill Operation, where he also successfully led the recent resizing process.
Notably, Mr Arndt has secured the sustainability of Perilya's Broken Hill Operation at a time when several other lead and zinc operations in Australia and worldwide have been forced to close their doors. - Web Site

Chairman's Letter - 24 October 2008
Dear Shareholder
In the second half of the 2007/2008 year, significant steps were taken to focus and rationalise the activities of your Company.
The new exploration team has completed a major rationalisation of the tenement portfolio. Total area under licence has been reduced from 1,648 km² to 376 km² (77% reduction), lowering the minimum government expenditure required by around $0.7 million per year. Because of the thorough review of potential carried out, there has been no significant reduction in areas that are productive for gold exploration.
In parallel with the rationalisation and focussing of its exploration portfolio, the Company by year end had also reduced corporate overheads and fixed costs by over $0.5 million per year.
Most importantly, Panaegis has moved to 100% ownership of all the Company's tenements plus 187 hectares of freehold land and other assets at Nagambie at minimal cost. Apart from the clear potential of the Nagambie tenements to host additional heap-leachable oxide gold mineralisation at a grade around the previous mine grade of 0.8 g/t gold, the central mining licence, MIN 5412, is a particularly valuable asset for the Company.
Firstly, as a granted mining licence with a recent operations history, MIN 5412 is important in a regional ore treatment sense as the Company has other compelling oxide gold targets within economic trucking distance of Nagambie at Redcastle, Heathcote South, Graytown, Rushworth and Nagambie Regional. Together with the oxide targets on MIN 5412, Panaegis is targeting at least 100,000 to 200,000 ounces of low grade oxide gold mineralisation in the region that could be heap-leach treated on MIN 5412. Heap-leach operations can be developed quickly and are much lower cost than conventional gold treatment operations, both in terms of capital cost and operating cost per tonne.
Secondly, MIN 5412 has the potential to generate substantial income for the Company, well in excess of current market capitalisation, from the sale of rock as part of the rehabilitation process. The potential revenue could be more than sufficient to fully fund all of Panaegis's current gold exploration and development aims in central Victoria. Before gold mining commenced at Nagambie in 1990, the site was a source of road gravel for the local region. As a result of the gold mining and heap-leach operations, which ran until 1997, around 5 million tonnes of crushed rock and 10 million tonnes of uncrushed rock were placed in various surface stockpiles on MIN 5412. Since 1997, approximately 200,000 tonnes of the crushed rock and 160,000 tonnes of the uncrushed rock have been sold for local road works and general farm use. The most recent sales, during the 2007/2008 year, were of uncrushed rock to an earthmoving contractor at $2 per tonne uncrushed on an "as is, where is" basis.
Of particular significance for the Company, VicRoads is carrying out pre-construction planning for the 17.4 km long Nagambie Bypass, an AusLink National Project. Construction is planned to commence in 2010. The alignment for the bypass, which is approximately 2 km to the east of central Nagambie and approximately 3 km west of MIN 5412, was approved in July 2006 following a lengthy community consultation process. It is understood that 4 to 5 million tonnes of crushed rock may be required to construct the four lane, freeway standard road and Panaegis is well placed to supply the majority of the rock from the stockpiles on MIN 5412. In addition, large quantities of water will be required during the road construction and Panaegis, which has approximately 3 gigalitres of water contained in the open pits on MIN 5412, is well placed to provide that water.
Nagambie MIN 5412 is now clearly the most valuable asset of the Company and central to its exploration and development aims in central Victoria. With that in mind, the directors consider that a change of name to Nagambie Mining Limited is appropriate and a resolution to that effect is being put to shareholders at the Annual General Meeting..... - Web Site

The well was previously perforated from 14,341 to 14,359 feet and 14,354 to 14,368 feet.
The flow test results have added significant value to Samson's proved developed producing assets. Because the well is located in the Gulf Coast Basin, the gas produced will be sold at Henry Hub prices, currently around US$6.90 per MMBTU. It is expected that, at current prices, the well will generate net income to Samson of US$160,000 per month from the sale of gas and condensate..... - Web Site

Wall Street spent another session buffeted by volatility Thursday, this time closing mixed after investors wrestled with their fears about the economy but also looked for bargains after two days of selling. While the Dow Jones industrials and Standard & Poor's 500 index rose sharply, a downdraft in tech stocks left the Nasdaq composite index with a loss.
Declining issues outnumbered advancers by about 5 to 3 on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume came to 7.05 billion shares compared with 6.60 billion shares traded Wednesday.
The Labor Department reported Thursday that new applications for unemployment benefits rose 15,000 last week to a seasonally adjusted 478,000. That was slightly above analysts' estimates of 470,000. Jobless claims above 400,000 are considered a sign of recession.
An auction of $988 million in debt from failed bank Washington Mutual Inc. fetched a substantially higher price than was seen for a similar auction of Lehman Brothers debt earlier in the month. The sale priced $988 million of WaMu debt at 57 cents for every $1 of debt sold compared with the 8.625 cents on the dollar that a $4.92 billion sale of Lehman debt garnered.
Crude oil rose from a 16-month low as OPEC's president said that members had reached a consensus on the need to trim production and Iran said the cut may be as much as 2 million barrels a day.
Copper fell to a three-year low and nickel dropped to the lowest since 2003 on speculation that a global economic slump will curb demand for metals from investors who had helped send commodities to a record in July.
Gold fell below $700 an ounce for the first time in more than a year as a rising dollar and stock-market losses forced investors to sell the metal to raise cash.

231008 Central Petroleum Limited (Central-ASX ticker CTP) 2008 Drilling Programme
Central Petroleum announces that Hunt Rig 2 was released from the Simpson 1 well site at 0800 Northern Territory time yesterday the 22nd October. While the Mt Kitty and Ooraminna well site locations are relatively safe from potential weather related access problems, the rig is being transported to Kulgera on the Alice Springs-Adelaide highway to allow all weather access to it as a prudent move in consideration of the impending wet season.
Considerable logistics, equipment failings and/or supply problems have resulted in a longer programme to date than originally anticipated.
A decision on the resumption or otherwise of the remainder of the proposed 2008 programme will be made in mid November when the Joint Venture (variously Petroleum Exploration Australia Limited, He Nuclear Limited and Central) will have had an opportunity to review its position.
Discussion has also continued with several potential new entrants into the Joint Venture and some of this discussion has focussed on potential modification to the previously planned 2008 programme and possible extensions thereto in the light of results obtained to date, especially the extent of coal with Coal Bed Methane (CBM) potential which has been indicated by the drilling programme in the Pedirka Basin. - Web Site

Zhao Dong Development Project - Production Commences
ROC's wholly-owned subsidiary, Roc Oil (Bohai) Company, is pleased to advise that work in relation to construction, installation and commissioning of the new conductor pod ("CP2"), Pipeline Terminal ("PT") and pipeline connections approved under the Unit Development Plan for the C4 Oil Field and the Extended Reach Area ("ERA") of the C and D Oil Fields in the Zhao Dong Block, Bohai Bay, offshore China has achieved operational status and oil production from the new facilities has commenced. Wells are being progressively brought on line and commissioning work is ongoing. A diagram describing the facilities and a photograph of the facilities are attached.
During the first phase of commissioning of the new facilities, oil production will be established from seven wells. Three of these oil producers are located in the C Field and one in the D Field of the ERA (ROC interest: 24.5%). The final three wells are in the unitised C4 Oil Field (ROC interests: 11.575%). It is also expected that three more ERA and one more C4 well will be drilled and brought into production before conclusion of the 2008 drilling programme.
Expansion work at the existing Zhao Dong platforms approved under the Incremental Production Plan ("IDP") also took a significant step forward with the sail-out and successful installation of the ODB drilling platform on 8 October. Commissioning work is continuing and drilling from the platform is expected to commence in November as scheduled. Construction on OPB, the second processing platform to be located at the Zhao Dong field, continues on schedule. Once fabrication is complete, the OPB is scheduled to sail out and be commissioned in Q2 2009. - Web Site

Drilling Expands High Grade Ni-Cu Zones at Nachingwea
IMX Resources NL (ASX:IXR) is pleased to report the second batch of assay results from the 2008 Nachingwea JV drilling program in Tanzania have been announced by JV partner TSXV listed Continental Nickel Limited ("CNI"), in which IMX Resources has a substantial shareholding of 47.3%.
Excellent results continue to be reported from the NAD013 and J Zones with 13 out of the additional 17 holes reported intersecting high grades of nickel and copper in sulphide and oxide mineralisation. To date 106 drill holes totalling 12,888 metres have been drilled in 2008, with results reported for 27 holes.
The highlights of the drill assays received are:
NAD013 Zone:
J Zone:
High Grade Gold in Resource Development Drilling at Chatree North
Initial high grade gold drill hole results support the aggressive resource development drilling program underway at Chatree North. The program is to drill test extensions to known ore bodies and is anticipated to increase resources significantly this fiscal year.
The best new drill hole result is 30 metres of 5.1 grams/tonne gold from 103m down hole including 9 metres of 9.9 grams/tonne gold in altered hydrothermal breccias in drill hole 3199RC. This drill hole is in the south west part of Q prospect in a previously untested geophysical anomaly and demonstrates the potential for new deposits within Chatree North. Drilling underway in another hole 50m to the south shows similar altered breccias with assay results pending.
Other encouraging new gold results from nearby drilling include 18 metres (m) @ 1.7 grams/tonne (g/t) gold, 3m@8.5g/t, 1m@10.3g/t, and 19m @1.2g/t. Recent drill hole intercepts from this area are reported in the table below.
Initial drilling focused around the south and central parts of the planned Q Prospect pits and in the north end of the A pit that will be followed by drill testing the western side of A Pit. - Web Site
Kalman Deposit Mineralisation Expands at Depth on Well Drilled Section 5200N
......Comments
Rarely do we see such expansive mineralisation as exists here below the majority of drilling at Kalman.
The insitu metal value is already impressive and will no doubt be enhanced by the rhenium assay results in the higher grade Molybdenum zones. These rhenium results will be released when received.
Compilation of preliminary metallurgical testwork results is nearing completion and will be released next week. - Web Site
140.27 metres at 1.5% Ni Intersected at Lounge Lizard
Kagara is pleased to announce that preliminary results have been received for hole
LFPD18W2W1W1. The hole returned 140.27 metres at 1.5% nickel and the intersection included
three zones of semi-massive to massive nickel sulphides.
LFPD18W2W1W1 - 140.27m @ 1.5%Ni
including 26.27m @ 3.6%Ni (901.73 to 928.00m)
including 9.03m @ 7.8%Ni (901.73 to 910.76m)
and 13.00m @ 3.1%Ni (985.00 to 998.00m)
As mentioned previously the upper zone of 26.27 metres grading 3.6% nickel, including 9.03
metres at 7.8% nickel, correlates well with the 76.60 metres at 3.3% nickel in hole LFPD18W2W1
located 100 metres vertically above hole LFPD18W2W1W1.
Drilling of the T4 position at Lounge Lizard is currently underway approximately 200 metres south
along strike of hole LFPD18W2W1W1. - Web Site

Third Quarter Release
KEY POINTS
Petsec Energy's facilities suffered no significant damage from Hurricanes Gustav and Ike which passed through the Gulf of Mexico during September. However, the hurricanes caused platform and pipeline shut-ins which significantly reduced the Company's production for the quarter.
FINANCIAL .......
Production and Cashflow
Production in the September quarter was 2.1 Bcfe, up 53% over the corresponding quarter of 2007, and down 39% on the previous quarter mainly due to shut-ins in September caused by Hurricanes Gustav and Ike.
The average gas sales price received (including hedging) was US$9.31 Mcfe and was 6% higher than the US$8.77 achieved in the June quarter.
Revenues were US$19.4 million, up 94% on the corresponding quarter of 2007, and 35% lower than the June quarter due to the hurricane related production shut-ins.
EBITDAX was U$13.2 million up 122% on the corresponding quarter of 2007, and 40% lower than the previous quarter due to the hurricane-related production shut-ins.
EBITDAX margin was US$6.35 per Mcfe, up 45% on the corresponding quarter of 2007 and similar to the previous quarter of US$6.45/Mcfe. Lease operating expenses were US$1.46/Mcfe and GG&A, US$1.59/Mcfe.
Acquisition, exploration and development expenditures for the quarter were US$6.6 million, including US$4.0 million on exploration and US$1.5 million on development activities......

Wall Street tumbled again Wednesday as investors worried that the global economy is poised to weaken even as parts of the credit market slowly show signs of recovery. The major indexes fell more than 4 percent, including the Dow Jones industrial average, which finished off its lows with a loss of 515 points.
Declining issues outnumbered advancers by about 5 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came to 1.56 billion shares.
The US dollar hit multiyear highs against several other major currencies, weighing on commodity prices.
The strong US dollar helped drive down the price of oil, as did a government report that U.S. fuel supplies rose last week. Light, sweet crude fell $5.43 to $66.75 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, after falling as low as $66.20.
Copper prices tumbled to the lowest in almost three years as a global economic slump reduces consumption of the metal used in pipes and wires.
Gold slumped to the lowest price in more than a year as the US dollar jumped, eroding the appeal of the metal as an alternative investment. Silver also declined.
The Reuters/Jefferies CRB Index of 19 raw materials plunged as much as 3.3 percent to 269.48, the lowest since Sept. 8, 2004. Before today, the gauge had lost 41 percent since reaching a record in July as the credit crunch choked worldwide growth.

STOKES BAY-1 WELL TESTING UPDATE
The Company has been advised by the Operator that the Stokes Bay-1 testing programme equipment and specialised well workover and stimulation personnel are currently on the Stokes Bay 1 wellsite, in the EP104/R1 permits located in the Canning Basin, near the town of Derby, Western Australia.
The workover and testing crew have completed the set up and preparation activities and commenced initial fresh water circulation and swabbing. These activities will continue until the arrival of the nitrogen unit and other nitrogen test equipment at the wellsite.
Final technical work on the Stokes Bay-1 testing programme concluded that nitrogen is the most suitable fluid for circulation of the heavy drilling fluids above the Nullara Formation carbonate reservoir in the wellbore to reduce the pressure on the formation. This test programme is designed to induce flow of the formation fluids from the cavernous Nullara Formation.
The Stokes Bay-1 testing to date has not provided any formation fluids from the Nullara Formation and this test programme is designed to determine the presence of hydrocarbons and the extent of the reservoir parameters. - Web Site

Update for Shareholders
The Board of Marathon Resources reassures shareholders that the recent decline in the price of the Company's shares is not related to any change in the fundamentals of the company. We believe the share price has been affected by the current external market volatility.
Work at Marathon continues on all non-drilling parts of our exploration activities and we are pleased to announce that the Company will tomorrow commence a gravity survey program at our Mt Gee uranium deposit in South Australia.
As mentioned in our resource upgrade announcement released in September, we believe there is potential for further mineralisation in the region of the Mt Gee deposit in EL3258 and this gravity survey will add to the evidence base of the uranium resource.
As announced in August, our Rectification Plan for the clean up at Mt Gee has been approved and we are awaiting instructions from PIRSA on a commencement date.
We are dedicated as a company to keeping our shareholders and the market informed to the best of our ability on all news of the company's development. - Web Site

UMC Project Development Study and Preliminary Financial Model for 64.5 Mt high grade DSO Marra Mamba bedded iron ore
(showing, based on qualifications and assumptions, indicative Net Operating Profit After Tax averaging in the range $333 million p.a - $596 million p.a with consequent Net Present Value in the range $1.18 billion - $2.4 billion)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A preliminary scoping study carried out by Prodetheus Limited for United Minerals Corporation NL ("UMC") have identified development options for the Railway Prospect iron ore project. These have been reviewed by Sten Soderstrom, UMC's Project Development Manager and the preferred development option identified and approved by the Directors. This forms the Base Case for the Project Development Study and Preliminary Financial Model, developed in-house.
This release has been prepared for a presentation at the AGM on Friday 7th November 2008.
The internal Preliminary Financial Model (Base Case) which indicates, subject to qualifications and assumptions (set out below), a Net Operating Profit After Tax averaging $390 million p.a. with a Net Present Value of $1.45 billion based on treating 64.5 Mt of high grade Marra Mamba bedded iron ore from the Railway Prospect over a seven year mine life starting in 2011 (refer sensitivity analysis Table 3, page 5). The Company is in a sound financial position with cash reserves of approximately $17 million, enabling it (at least) to complete a Pre-Feasibility Study, project exploration and metallurgical programmes, and environmental and hydro-geological studies by mid 2009.
The Railway Prospect is in a prime geographical position adjacent to several heavy haulage railway lines, a sealed highway, power and communication services and a resource able to provide a high quality DSO product. Product sales would need to be agreed with a major producer. UMC considers that options for funding the project include by way of third party equity and/or joint - Web Site

ZINC/LEAD/SILVER MINERALISATION EXTENDED AT SILVER SPUR
A recently completed diamond core hole at Silver Spur, Texas Project, Southeast Queensland, Australia, has extended the known and previously mined mineralisation to depth by at least 50 metres. Silver Spur is located 1.5km south-east of the Twin Hills Silver Mine.
Historically, Silver Spur was mined for silver in the late 1800's to early 1900's. Approximately 2 million ozs of silver was recovered from 100,000 tonnes of ore mined at an average mined grade of 800g/t silver, 25% zinc, 13% lead and 1.5g/t gold (historical record from Rimfire Pacific Mining NL prospectus). The mine closed at the advent of World War 1.
The first diamond core hole (SSD5) of our current exploration programme, targeting depth extensions of the historic Silver Spur Mine workings has recently been completed. The hole has intersected a significant mineralized zone from 215.73–237.17m (21.44m downhole) at 9g/t Silver, 1.53% Zinc, 0.86% Lead and 0.05% Copper. This zone in turn contains several higher grade zones as specified above (Figure 2). This mineralised zone sits approximately 50m below the position of the historically mined ore zones.
Several significant intercepts were encountered within a wider zone of zinc/lead/pyrite mineralisation. Those intercepts are:

Exploration and Development Activities Report Q/E 30 Sept 08
DEVELOPMENT
First production was successfully achieved during the quarter at Neptune and North West Shelf Train 5 (both petroleum). In addition, North West Shelf Angel (petroleum) delivered first production on 3 October 2008. These projects will not be reported in future Exploration and Development Reports.
During the quarter, we sanctioned two gas projects - Bass Strait Turrum and Angostura Gas Phase II.
Atlantis North is now also detailed in the report........
MINERALS EXPLORATION
BHP Billiton remains committed to invest in our future through the pursuit of global exploration opportunities for key commodities of interest utilising both in-house capabilities and partnerships.
Grassroots exploration continued on copper targets in Australia, Chile, Argentina and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC); on nickel targets in Australia, Russia, Colombia and Africa and on diamond targets in the DRC and Canada. Exploration for iron ore, coal, bauxite and manganese was undertaken in a number of regions including Australia, South America, Russia and West Africa.
For the quarter ended 30 September 2008, BHP Billiton spent US$166 million on minerals exploration, of which US$146 million was expensed.
PETROLEUM EXPLORATION
Exploration and appraisal wells drilled during the quarter or in the process of drilling as at 30 September 2008. ......- Web Site
Production Report Q/E 30 Sept 08
BHP Billiton delivered a solid performance in the first quarter of the 2009 financial year. This was achieved within a challenging supply environment characterised by unexpected disruptions, including the hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico.
Consistent with the outlook statement given at our interim and preliminary results, China has not been immune to the global slowdown. Macroeconomic indicators show that Chinese growth has softened during the quarter, albeit from very high levels. We expect volatility and uncertainty to continue in the short term. Notwithstanding this short term uncertainty, we remain confident that the ongoing industrialisation and urbanisation of China and other developing economies will continue to drive strong longer term demand for our products.
Our uniquely diversified portfolio of low cost and high quality assets places us at a competitive advantage in the current uncertain environment and we are well positioned to capitalise as markets recover. Our strong cash flow and balance sheet allows us to re-invest throughout the cycle, in our growth projects that are focused on lower risk brownfield expansions in high margin commodities.

Drake to Advance Oz Minerals' Alliance Projects
Drake Resources (ASX: DRK) today announced it will gain 100% interest in the joint ventures and properties previously held in a strategic alliance with OZ Minerals (ASX: OZL) in Sweden and Queensland.
As a result of a recently completed strategic review of its global portfolio, OZ Minerals has agreed to transfer all of its rights, titles and interests in the properties to Drake at no cost to Drake, and to fulfil its outstanding commitments.
Drake's Managing Director, Dr Bob Beeson, said that the OZ Minerals Alliance had been a valuable contributor to Drake's portfolio of assets and had built a launching pad for future growth in the Company.
"The projects in Sweden are now in a position to advance rapidly," said Dr Beeson. "Gaining 100% interest at this stage is a tremendous opportunity for Drake. A detailed airborne electromagnetic survey has been completed this summer and several high priority drill targets are emerging from Drake's data processing." - Web Site

Proposal to the Company
The Directors of Jupiter Mines Limited (ASX: JMS - "Jupiter") announce that the Company has received a proposal from Pallinghurst Resources Australia Limited and Red Rock Resources PLC seeking to vend certain assets into the Company.
The consideration for this would be an issue of shares which would be likely to lead to a change in control of the Company. The Board notes that such a proposal would require an approval of shareholders at a general meeting and prescribed information would need to be presented to shareholders at that time.
The Board is currently giving the proposal careful consideration and further releases will be made in due course. - Web Site

Wall Street retreated Tuesday after forecasts from DuPont, Sun Microsystems and Texas Instruments raised fears that companies' outlooks for the fourth quarter and beyond could indeed signal a severe economic downturn. After logging sharp gains the previous session, the Dow Jones industrial average fell 2.5 percent, while the Nasdaq composite index lost more than 4 percent following a weak showing by technology names.
Declining issues outpaced advancers by about 2 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where consolidated volume to 5.09 billion shares compared with 5.1 billion shares traded Monday.
Oil prices slumped back below $71 a barrel Tuesday as a stronger US dollar overshadowed expectations of a sizable OPEC output cut and led investors to shed commodities bought as an inflation hedge.
Copper tumbled below $2 a pound for the first time since December 2005 amid speculation that the world economy is headed for a recession that will reduce demand for metals.
Gold fell to the lowest price in five weeks as the US dollar gained, eroding the appeal of the metal as an alternative asset.

Independent stockbroking firm BGF Equities has released a very positive research report on Perseus Mining Limited.
The BGF report said "Gold exploration success stories like Perseus Mining Ltd ("PRU") don't come along every day."
"Many gold companies get wildly excited about the prospects of a million ounce discovery, but > 5 mill. oz discoveries only surface once every few years.
"It is even more exceptional for one company to be sitting on two discoveries of this size, one
in credible gold producing Ghana and potential for one in the Ivory Coast." - Web Site

A rising wave of optimism lifted Wall Street Monday, propelling the Dow Jones industrials up more than 400 points on more signs of a reviving credit market and comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke. Bernanke told the House Budget Committee that a fresh round of government measures might help ease the country's economic weakness. There were no details but the White House said it was open to ideas that Congress might put forth.
All the major indexes finished with gains of 3 percent or more.
Trading was orderly for much of the day, but the final hour again saw frenetic activity, this time to the upside, with the Dow rising nearly 140 points in the last 25 minutes.
Advancing issues outpaced decliners by about 5 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume was a light 1.23 billion shares.
Crude oil rose more than $2 a barrel on signs that the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries may cut output to halt a 50 percent drop in prices since July.
Copper prices dropped after China's economy, the biggest contributor to global growth, expanded at the slowest pace in five years - a 9 percent annual rate in the third quarter.
Gold rose after the lowest price in more than a month attracted investors and spurred jewelry demand. Silver gained the most in most than a week.
PARDOO DSO PROJECT - MINING HAS COMMENCED
Atlas Iron Limited (ASX Code: AGO) is pleased to announce that it has received final approvals to mine at the Company's Pardoo iron ore project. Mining has commenced and ore is being stockpiled on site prior to being hauled to the port of Port Hedland.
Atlas owns 100% of the Pardoo Iron Ore Project, which is located 75 kilometres by road from Port Hedland, in the Pilbara of Western Australia.
"This is a huge milestone for Atlas. The entire team has done a great job and we are very happy with the outcome," commented Atlas Managing Director , David Flanagan. "Every employee, consultant or contractor associated with the project has made a significant contribution and they are all to be thanked and congratulated," he added.
Atlas again would like to acknowledge the assistance of the incoming WA State Government, in particular, the Hon Norman Moore, Minister for Mines, as well as key Decision Making Authorities for their assistance in facilitating final approvals for the Pardoo Iron Ore Project.
Iron Ore Market conditions
While it is the generally held view that this will be a short -term situation, iron ore demand has fallen over recent weeks. In response to this Atlas has completed a detailed review of the Pardoo mining schedule and the anticipated demand for its iron ore product in the short to medium term. On conclusion of this review the Company has reaffirmed its view that the Pardoo Project remains robust within the range of current and foreseeable pricing scenarios. The Pardoo Project has a relatively low capital cost of $12 million, which mitigates much of the risk in this decision.
In order to compensate for delays experienced in the approvals process, the Company is still planning to commence exports with lower grade, easily accessible ore to meet stated production targets. While the Company is intent on meeting its shipping timetable for early December, it is subject to prompt execution of a sales agreement.
Given the current volatility in the iron ore market Atlas has now rescheduled the mining operations to optimise grade and contaminants in order to ensure that the Pardoo product remains competitive.
Atlas' off- take negotiations are ongoing with a small number of short -listed parties. The Company expects to announce an off take agreement in the short term. - Web Site

45KM OF NEW TARGETS AT GINGIN ADJACENT TO EXISTING OPERATIONS
Image is pleased to announce that the 95 sq km Gingin tenement E70/3032 in the North Perth Basin has been granted and a number of access agreements have already been signed paving the way for a drilling programme to begin in December. Geophysical surveys carried out by Image have identified at least 45km of new targets, one of which is over 8.6km in length and 0.35km wide.
Significantly, these targets are in close proximity to the existing synthetic rutile and separation facilities at Muchea and within trucking distance of other facilities in Bunbury. It is noted that the existing mineral sand mine at Gingin is high grade averaging 16.7%HM containing more than 1.1Mt HM. The mineral sand orebody at the Gingin mine is only 2.5km in length which is significantly smaller than the larger targets identified within Image's Gingin tenement.
Image has increased the total cumulative length of identified targets on its North Perth Basin project to 292km (up from 247km, ASX release 24 April 2008)..... - Web Site

Esis Porphyry Copper Prospect, Papua New Guinea Exploration Update and Project Summary
Frontier Resources Ltd is pleased to announce results from a 2 month exploration program conducted at the Esis copper Deposit (EL1351- Mt Likuruanga), in the eastern sector of the island of New Britain in Papua New Guinea (Figure 1).
The objectives were to:
Frontier's trench and outcrop channel / composite rock chip sampling at Esis confirmed broad zones of copper mineralisation north and east of historic BHP diamond drill hole MD23, which intersected 152.6m at a weighted average of 0.39% copper plus 24ppm molybdenum to end of hole (was terminated in 0.37% copper).
Highlights of Frontier's sampling includes 20m grading 0.43% copper, 20m grading 0.38% copper and 10m grading 0.35% copper in historic Trench 4. Channel /rock chip sampling in creeks included 30m grading 0.32% copper, 30m grading 0.29% copper and 20m grading 0.28% copper, in 3 different creeks.
Esis is typical of many porphyry copper systems in tropical weathering environments and these results are considered to be highly encouraging. This is because leaching of the bedrock at surface over time results in reduced copper grades (at surface), with the leached copper concentrating at depth in "supergene enrichment zones."
BHP's drill testing of the marginal copper grades at surface showed significant increases in copper grades down hole. Average weighted copper grades down hole compared to copper grades at surface in a 100m radius of the deep holes drilled (MD21-24) show a ratio of 1.75:1, significantly increasing the overall prospectivity (ie. If the surface grade = 0.2%, then the sub-surface grade should = 0.35%).
Frontier is encouraged by the high prospectivity noted and are contemplating drill testing the copper mineralization at the Esis Prospect in 2009, subject to funding.- Web Site

Record Copper Production from Mt Garnet Operations
Kagara Ltd wishes to inform shareholders that a continuing shift towards copper production has resulted in record copper production of 9,472 tonnes being produced from the North Queensland operations for the September Quarter. Details will be contained in the Quarterly Activities Report to be released next week. The cash cost of production from the 7,571 tonnes produced from the Thalanga and Mt Garnet copper plants averaged US$1.45 per pound of payable copper and delivered a cash margin of US$1.76 per pound of payable copper.
Zinc production from the polymetallic plant was 4,411 tonnes but as a result of the increased copper in the feed which averaged 1.7% copper, the cash cost was down to US$0.47 cents per pound of payable zinc, delivering a cash margin of US$0.25 per pound of payable zinc.
These excellent results reaffirm the Mt Garnet operations as one of the lowest cost copper and zinc producers in the industry. - Web Site
New Nickel Intersections further expand Potential of Lounge Lizard
Kagara Ltd is pleased to inform shareholders that a third spectacular intersection of nickel sulphide mineralisation has been achieved in diamond drill hole LFPD18W2W1W2 within the upper part of the Lounge Lizard deposit. This recently completed drill hole intersected 141.6 metres of strongly mineralised ultramafic and granitic rock units, including 20.7 metres of massive and semi-massive nickel sulphides, approximately 90 metres to the south of the 114.33 metre intersection in LFPD18W2W1W1 reported on 19 September 2008. This intersection, although drilled down dip and not testing the basal contact, has confirmed the potential for large tonnages of high grade nickel sulphides in this part of the Lounge Lizard ore body.
Partial assay results of the higher grade section for hole LFPD18W2W1W1 have now been received and are tabulated below together with previously announced results in hole LFPD18W2W1. ..... - Web Site

Tindalo-1 Progress Report
Nido Petroleum Limited (Nido) and its Joint Venture partner Kairiki Energy Limited (Kairiki) are pleased to provide this progress report on the Tindalo-1 exploration well located in Service Contract 54 (SC54), located in the NW Palawan Basin, offshore the Philippines.
While drilling through the Nido Formation reservoir section, oil shows were observed, (demonstrated by elevated mud log wet gas readings and strong oil fluorescence in cuttings recovered to surface) down to a significant lost circulation zone encountered between 1,782 and 1784.5 mRT (metres below the rotary table). Drilling continued past this zone to a total well depth of 1,875 mRT.
A small volume of oil recovered at surface confirms the presence of a movable oil accumulation at Tindalo-1 and the planned wireline logging program over the reservoir interval commenced this morning in order to determine the extent of the oil column.
Progress Update
As of the date of the last report Tindalo-1 had drilled into the top of the Nido Formation reservoir at 1,635 mRT. Activities completed since that report include:
14 October 9 - 5/8" casing was run and cemented in the 12 1/4" hole;
16 October 8 - 1/2" hole section was drilled through to total depth of 1,875 mRT in the Nido Formation primary reservoir target; and
20 October - Electric wireline logging commenced in the reservoir section.- Web Site

AQUILA NOT TO PROCEED WITH DEMERGER OF EXPLORATION ASSETS AND UPDATE ON OPERATIONS
Aquila Resources Limited (ASX:AQA "Aquila" or "the Company") advises that given the extreme volatility and uncertainty in global stock markets over recent weeks, it has decided that proceeding with the proposed demerger of Aquila's exploration assets (as described in the scheme booklet dispatched to shareholders in late September) at this time, would not be in the best interests of Aquila's shareholders.
Accordingly, the Company will be applying to the Federal Court for orders to cancel the Court ordered scheme meeting that was scheduled to be held on Friday, 31 October 2008. Aquila also proposes to cancel the general meeting of Aquila's shareholders that was to precede the scheme meeting.
Shareholders will be advised of the outcome of the Company's application to the Federal Court.
The possibility of pursuing the demerger of the Company's exploration assets at some later stage, may be considered by the Board of Aquila when global credit and equity markets have stabilised.
Whilst the current turmoil in global credit and equity markets has resulted in an adverse impact on the share prices of mining companies, including the Company's share price, the Company is pleased to report that its financial position remains strong.
Aquila's interest in the operating metallurgical coal mine, Isaac Plains, has enjoyed a record quarter of sales with 463,345 tonnes of coal sold. Subject to receipt of all regulatory approvals, it is intended that Isaac Plains will continue to ramp-up to its nameplate capacity of 2.8Mtpa of product, in line with the current Phase 2/3 expansion at the Dalrymple Bay Coal Terminal (completion is scheduled for March/April 2009)...... - Web Site

NZOG Congratulates Pike River Coal
New Zealand Oil & Gas Limited (NZOG) congratulates Pike River Coal Ltd (PRC) for the milestone of ‘first coal' at its South Island West Coast coking coal mine.
NZOG was the original holder of the mining licence and made a commitment to development the Pike River mine more than a decade ago.
PRC was floated on the stock market in 2007 and New Zealand Oil & Gas Ltd retains a stake of just over 30% in the company, through 81.7 million shares, 11 million options and 3.5 million convertible notes.
NZOG is delighted with the successful development at Pike and is very pleased with its investment in the company.
Completion of the 2.3km tunnel to access the Brunner coal seam is a major technical achievement and it is a credit to all those involved that there have been no serious accidents or environmental incidents.
Pike's high quality coking coal deposits are highly sought after for steel making. Production is beginning at a time of record international prices and with the NZ dollar having depreciated significantly against the US dollar, further enhancing returns. - Web Site
MIOCENE OIL FLOW IN CAMBAY FIELD, INDIA
The appraisal program initiated recently in the western portion of the Cambay field has confirmed the oil potential of the shallower Miocene section through the results of the recompletion of an old well, Cambay - 64 and the initial results from Cambay - 74, which is currently drilling.
To date:
CAMBAY - 64 RECOMPLETION
Re-entry of existing well Cambay-64 and testing from a 2 metre interval of perforations in the Miocene Basal Sand (MBS) has yielded a flow of approximately 250 barrels per day of oil at a flowing tubing pressure of 660 psi.
The well has been choked back to prevent sand production as some wells completed in the MBS elsewhere in the area have produced sand. No sand has been produced from Cambay-64 and the choke is gradually being opened as testing continues.
Preliminary field analysis of the crude oil indicates an high quality light crude with a gravity of 38O API.
The crude is being trucked to a nearby refinery and sold along with the other produced crude from Cambay Field.
While the MBS has been a secondary objective in the appraisal drilling campaign, no oil resources were assigned to this target in Cambay Field volumetrics. Oilex anticipates that the commercial impact of this additional resource could be significant and will be addressed once Cambay-74 data are available.
The MBS is commonly an excellent reservoir and at a depth in this area of approximately 1400 metres, offers the potential for low cost development and early production from the Miocene.
CAMBAY - 74 APPRAISAL
Cambay-74 has reached a TD of 1603m in the 12¼" hole section. The well has been logged and 95/8" casing will be run.
The well is located approximately 400 metres to the north-west of Cambay-64 and has intersected a thicker MBS in the same reservoir compartment.
Wireline logs from Cambay-74 indicate the presence of hydrocarbons in the MBS, as well as additional hydrocarbon bearing zones in shallower Miocene sands.
Further evaluation of the Miocene interval including testing will be carried out in Cambay-74. - Web Site
