Anthracite and silica miner Petmin was waxing enigmatic on Monday morning, advising shareholders to stand by for a possible blockbusting announcement.

The South Africa-based company said it has entered into negotiations which, if they come to a successful conclusion, could have a material effect on the price of the company's securities.

The presumption is that the said effect would be a positive one; at least, that's what the market has presumed, as the shares charged up to 23p from the previous trading's day's close of 21.5p.

PRESS RELEASE - 21 NOVEMBER 2011

Petmin's joint venture partner in the North Atlantic Iron Corporation (NAIC), which is developing an iron sands and pig iron project in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, issued the following statement to Canadian media on Friday 18 November.

Labrador Iron Sands Project Announces Partners for $400 Million Project

For Release November 18, 2011

Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada Grand River Ironsands Incorporated (GRI) has formally announced its joint venture with South African and Canadian partners in the North Atlantic Iron Corporation (NAIC), a $400 million iron sands mining operation and pig iron plant in Happy Valley-Goose Bay.

After five years of developing the iron sands project in north eastern Canada, GRI has joined forces with diversified mining company Petmin Limited and the iron making expertise of Cardero Resource Corporation Ltd.

Petmin will invest $25 million in the project over three defined phases. The company has mining experience, capital-raising abilities and an internationally-recognised management team. Cardero has engineering skills and expertise in environmentally-friendly pig-iron production. This technology approach will be the basis for a new approach to iron making.

"After five years of diligently developing this high potential iron sands and pig iron project, we now have two world class partners with mining, capital raising and iron-making skills and experience, said GRI President Francis MacKenzie. We now have the investment to advance to a Bankable Feasibility Study along with the iron making expertise that will make this project a leader and set the bar a notch higher."

"GRI, Petmin and Cardero, along with our Innu First Nation partners and a number of community stakeholders in Happy Valley-Goose Bay (HVGB), are ready to further advance this project to production. The iron sands resource will be a low-cost feedstock for making a high purity pig iron product to supply foundries and steel mills. NAIC is meeting the request from Happy Valley-Goose Bay community leaders to add-value to the iron sands, bringing additional economic benefits to the community and to be an environmental leader which meets or exceeds global mining and iron making standards."

Bradley Doig, the Petmin executive responsible for international projects, said the company had identified the iron sands around Happy Valley-Goose Bay as a resource with significant economic and value creation potential for investors, partners and the local community.

"What stood out was the quality and strength of the commitment to the NAIC project by Innu First Nation and community leaders. Our collective goal is to have the community embrace the mining along with the value-adding pig iron facility. This opportunity has the basis to reward all stakeholders and fits well with our business model and strategy."

While mining the iron sands for export is possible, the focus will be on value-adding in the production of pig iron. Environmentally-efficient hydroelectricity rather than fossil fuels will be used to power the iron making process.

NAIC anticipates 120-140 new jobs and careers in the pig iron production process, with 40-60 jobs in mining operations. Significant spin-off jobs will be created along with economic benefits for the local community from investment in the pig iron plant and related infrastructure.

Glenn Hoffman, CEO of Cardero Iron Ore, said: "After more than 35 years in the iron business, rarely do we see a mining project with all the key elements in one location, resource, full service community, low cost hyd By SpikeyDT ]]> http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:PTMN.L&display=discussion&id=8975094&action=detail Mon, 21 Nov 2011 11:57:00 GMT SpikeyDT tag:iii.co.uk,2003:tst.8312225 ')" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.digitallook.com/news/4259494/IAG_non-exec_opens_account_with_%C2%A32.5m_purchase.html

IAG non-exec opens account with £2.5m purchase
Date: Thursday 26 May 2011


Non-executive chairman Cesar Alierta Izuel has opened his account in British Airways owner International Consolidated Airlines in a big way, spending nearly £2.5m on shares.

He took 165,000 shares at €2.82 a time, 729,575 at €2.84 and 105,425 at €2.75.

Izuel has been on the board of IAG since the company formed from the merger of British Airways and Spanish airline Iberia began trading at the start of the year. He has been chairman of telecommunications company Telefonica, Spain’s biggest company by market capitalisation, since 2000.

IAG reported an improved performance in the first quarter as it unveiled its first results since coming into existence.

The company posted a pre-tax loss of €47m (£28.5m) for the three months to 31 March, much narrower than the €273m deficit that would have been seen in the same period the previous year had the two companies existed as one entity. Revenues soared to €3.64bn from €3.15bn.

But high oil prices are a big worry for the company. Fuel costs were up by 30% at €1.13bn.

“We have been working hard to establish IAG over the past few months and are confident that we are on track to deliver our synergy targets,” said chief executive Wilie Walsh.

[miningmx.com] -- WHAT’S going on at the normally sedate mid-cap miner, Petmin? The company seems to have wandered lately from a relatively safe pursuit of the anthracite business into early stage pig iron, iron ore and copper exploration, the latter two in Liberia and Turkey respectively. What will happen next?
Well, manganese for one.
Executive chairperson Ian Cockerill, who has been the driving force behind Petmin’s sudden emergence from the shadows, says manganese is perhaps one of the assets yet to be added to the R1.64bn group’s asset mix. “Manganese is the only thing that’s missing now,” according to Cockerill, who says Petmin’s strategy is to find minerals that help feed China’s infrastructure.
“But don’t expect us to be bidding in order to create a multi-zillion dollar company. We will look for opportunities others have missed, or are too small. It will take time, however,” he says.
Petmin stocks, at R2.85 per share, are midway between the company’s 52-week trading range after peaking at R3.33/share in March. Analysts declare themselves satisfied with what’s gone on. “Cockerill does seem to be delivering on what he said he’d do,” said Stephen Meintjes at Imara SP Reid, although he added the stockbroker had still to properly cover the share.
Commenting on Petmin’s latest exploration foray, the direct 10% holding taken in Red Crescent Resources (RCR), which owns the Shivas copper project in central Turkey, UK stockbroker Numis says: “... it has the potential to be a sizeable and profitable project in a favourable country ... it fits with Petmin’s geographical and commodity diversification strategy”. At a 10.7 x PE, the company is trading in line with its peers, says Numis.
Petmin has flashed the cash lately. In addition to the R122m investment in RCR, Petmin spent R120m expanding Somkhele, its anthracite mine, and is to spend a further R14m helping to explore the Mount Ginka iron ore deposit in Liberia. Hummingbird Resources, an AIM-listed company, is its partner and as one of its directors, Cockerill knows it well.
Liberia, war-torn in the past, impresses Cockerill: “The country is weary of war and has attracted investment already: Ginga is 15 clicks away from Nimba (iron ore fields) where BHP Billiton and Vale have licences. I saw nothing that gave me cause for concern.”
In the meantime, Petmin will plug away at its Somkhele business to which it will add a second revenue stream. There will be no significant strain on the balance sheet; in fact, confidence is such that Cockerill reckons the company will remain almost ungeared at a mere 8% debt:equity. “We’re not unhappy with this. We’ll handle projects using internal resources, but if we do require dollars we’ll look to debt,” says Cockerill.
