Leute, erst mal hallo an alle. An alle die investiert sind als auch an die jenigen die ueberlegen hier zu investieren. Der dramatische short sell von gestern war ein automatisierter verkauf der ein domino effect ausloeste indem er die stop/loss limits aktiviert hat. dieser abfall wurde von irgendeiner istitution ausgeloest um bestehende gewinne um jeden preis mit zunehmen. dies geschar wegen der letzen wochen mit seinem negativen schleier; die maerkte ueberall auf der welt haben fuer wochen rot gesehen. die finanz institute stehen sehr unter druck und ergreifen jede moeglichkeit eben herauszukommen. nun, ich hab ein bisschen mit commerce resources korespondiert und wuerde dies gerne mit euch teilen. einiges ist nichts neues aber anderes wird euch mehr als ueberraschen: I would say that we are expecting AMEC to release the PEA very shortly. To be any more specific - as we are very close to its release - is problematic for me and my office at this time. Additionally, it may be interesting for me to mention that what AMEC have costed out for is, is the largest production scenario for tantalum in the world. That is to say: we have asked them to calculate all of the economics for a daily extraction rate of 7,500 tonnes, which on a 360 day schedule becomes a 2.7 Million tonne per annum extraction. This 2.7 Million tonnes of extraction - employing a very conservative recovery rate of 65% - would see us producing 750,000 pounds of tantalum and 6.5 million pounds of niobium per annum. This is the largest production scenario for tantalum on the planet at this time and there is no-one else who is looking to put a similar sized project in production. I wish I could be more definitive about the PEA and its expected release date, but I also hope that you understand that this is problematic for me to divulge. However, there is basically no way that the PEA is going to be again delayed like it has been before, and a key component of this is that it is generally accepted now that tantalum prices are not really going anywhere at this time but up - in that there is really no commodity that is in a greater supply side deficit position than is tantalum. To this point if you would like me to send you the most recent presentation we have made on the global tantalum market, just let me know and I will send this to you. Finally, to answer your question about the trading for today - all I can say is that this was some very aggressive selling that simply did not or could not wait for the normal operation of the market to sell at the best price possible. I do not think that this selling had anything to do with anything that we have done - recent news on the Carbo claims - or anything that we have not yet done - the release of the PEA for example. I think that this selling had everything to do with someone needing to take 'profits' at whatever price they could get which may be because they had debits that they needed to cover from other trades and other companies - hence a delayed reaction to the overall market correction of last week. In terms of last week, we were not hit nearly as hard as our peers were and then perhaps one investor - or most likely one computer - hit every bid within a very short period of time this morning. I believe that it was a stop loss or margin call situation because of the aggressive nature of the selling. In terms of the market, even right now at $0.37, CCE is down about 25% over the last week of trading, where for example Avalon and Quest are down just over 30% on the week. And with what news we are expected to have out in the sort term - assays from the summer drilling program at the Ashram and PEA for Blue River - we are excited to see how well the market reacts. I hope that I have answered your questions. If you have any other questions, or if you would like to receive the tantalum presentation I talked about, please let me know.
