Goldproduzent Petaquilla !

Heapleaching ist ein Verfahren um Gold  aus Böden mit niedrigen Goldanteil  zu gewinnen.

Ja also ich kann den niedrigen Kurs nur auf die Schulden schieben...was anderes fällt mir nicht ein...

2007-2008 hatten wir Kurse von 2-3$ ohne Produktion und mit einen deutlich tieferen Goldpreis(700-800$) und heute produzieren wir ca 5000-6000Unzen im Monaten der Goldpreis liegt bei ca 1200$ und wir griechen bei 0,4$ rum...gut wir hatten damals auch nur ca 90mio Aktien und nicht 125min aber deswegen müssten wir trotzdem bei gut 1,5$ stehen

 

wer weiß wer weiß...ich bleib dabei...

 

      hier mal ein Artikel zu Panama
http://www.nicatimes.net/nicaarchive/2010_08/0813101.htm
und was dort zum Thema kommt ist auf alle Fälle auch positiv für  Petaquilla auch wenn hauptsächlich von Kupfer gesprochen  wird...Insgesamt gibt es eine Pro Minenfirma Einstellung der Regierung  und somit auch für Petaquilla

 

 

Hello,

 

 

 

We expect to post our audited financial statements for fiscal year 2010 along with corresponding documents on or before Monday, August 30th.  It may indeed be on Friday, August 27th...or it may be on Monday, August 30th.  One of those two dates is most likely.

 

Thank you,

Petaquilla Signs Prepaid Forward Gold Purchase Agreement

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 08/19/10 --   Petaquilla Minerals Ltd.  (TSX: PTQ)(OTCBB: PTQMF)(FRANKFURT: P7Z) (the "Company") today  announced that it has entered into a definitive Forward Gold Purchase  Agreement (the "Agreement") with Deutsche Bank, AG, London Branch  ("Deutsche Bank"), a major international bank with a large gold trading  business. Subject to satisfaction of all closing conditions, Deutsche  Bank will fund a US$45 million prepaid gold forward facility.

 

The facility is a forward contract to deliver 68,243 ounces of gold over  a five year term. The schedule of gold payments is as follows: during  the first eight (8) months of the term, 562 ounces per month; for the  next eleven (11) months of the term, 1,125 ounces per month; for the  next twenty-four (24) months, 1,503 ounces per month; for the final  seventeen (17) months of the term, 900 ounces per month. The 68,243  ounces of gold that have been committed under this gold facility  represent approximately 6.3% of the Company's total gold resources at  its wholly-owned Molejon Gold Project in Panama.

   

Certain components within the Agreement, such as gold pricing  valuations, will be finalized at the time of prepayment, which is  anticipated to occur on August 25, 2010. As such, a subsequent news  release regarding the Agreement will be issued upon the date of  prepayment with the minimum and maximum gold prices per ounce expressed.  There is no interest payable to the bank during the term of the  facility. The Company will pay upfront structuring and finders' fees in  the aggregate sum of US$2,250,000.

 

Richard Fifer, Chairman of the Board, commented, "We are very pleased to  have entered into this gold forward facility with one of the world's  most reputable leaders in the global commodities market. This facility  allows the Company and its shareholders to preserve the benefit of  higher gold prices in the future."

 

Execution of this gold linked facility constitutes the first phase of  the Company's strategy to completely redeem its outstanding notes, which  will no longer be senior secured debt once the new facility is funded  as agreed to by our existing note holders. The net proceeds of the  facility will be used principally to redeem a portion of the Company's  outstanding notes plus any accrued interest up to the date of  redemption, in the combined amount of approximately US$42 million.

 

Other leading international financial institutions have expressed  interest and are currently assessing the potential of participating in  the refinancing of the remaining portion of the Company's notes. The  Company is in the process of arranging for the complete redemption of  its notes and will be updating shareholders when arrangements have been  made.

 

The lower payments that will now be due to the Company's note holders  will allow for an increase in funds to be directed towards the  exploration of the Oro Del Norte region where significant gold  mineralization has been discovered as detailed in the Company's news  release of August 9, 2010, as well as increasing exploration efforts on  the Company's entire 842 square kilometres of concession lands.  Engineering work on the heap leach project to harvest the low grade  material will also now be accelerated.

 

The resource evaluations in this press release were prepared under the  guidance of Mr. John Kapetas, P. Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by  National Instrument 43-101 and Vice President Exploration&Resources  Development for the Company.

Bankendeal ist ja nun unter dach und fach und ab 2011 sollte
es mit petaquilla so richtig bergauf gehen.
Habe gestern nochmal ein paar gekauft.

Langfristig Top.  

Werkzeugausfallzeiten stark reduziert durch neue Wartungs und Bedienprozesse daher starke Steigerung der Produktionskapazitäten, was wiederum einen massiven Einfluß auf die Produktionskosten pro Unze Gold im September haben wird.... mehr Gold aufm Konto :)

und ich sag noch hier ist nichts los :-)
mehr als 10 Mio. aktien gehandelt an der Börse.
Das sind fast 10% des gesamten Unternehmens oder habe ich mich
verrechnet??? Ganz schön viel.

Die news hören sich auch klasse an.
2011 wird wohl Petaquilla gehören.
Mit einer MK von 50 Mio. ist Petaquilla noch sehr gering bewertet.

Das wird sich bald ändern.  

ist wohl teilweise einem BB zu verdanken,der ist gestern

eingestiegen. Bin mal gespannt wie sich der Goldpreis in den nächsten

Monaten verhält.  

hat denn dieser BB so ein Gewicht? das überrascht mich jetzt ein wenig.  

wenn alle Abonenten investieren sollten es schon über 8Mio € sein.

Sind aber nicht so viele weil vielleicht nicht alle kaufen und vor allen Dingen noch verteilt an verschiedenen Börsenplätzen investieren.  

welcher BB und woher weißt du das???

danke

 

Freund über unsere Depots gesprochen und er sagte das sein Brief in petaquilla eingestiegen ist.

Weiß nicht ob ich sowas sagen darf, möchte keinen Ärger bekommen.


Sorry  

kein problem

 

Ist recht schlecht übersetzt aber es reicht um es zu verstehen.

Petaquilla Mineralien Ltd. (die „Firma ") freut sich, zu verkünden, dass ein führendes Finanzinstitut in Panama eine mietende Anlage US$9.1 Million nach Panama Desarrollo de Infraestructuras genehmigt hat, S.A. („PDI Panama "), die Infrastrukturtochtergesellschaft der Firma. Die vorgeschlagene Anlage ermöglicht PDI Panama, seinen Geschäfts-Entwicklungsplan voranzubringen und bildet einen Baustein der Firma spinnen-heraus Strategie für seine Infrastrukturabteilung. Momentan ergänzt PDI Panama die Arbeit, die vom Vertragsbergmann der Firma an der Molejon der Firma Goldmine durchgeführt wird, indem es solche Funktionen durchführt, denen das vor-Abstreifen Tätigkeiten, Rückstandaufbauten und Wartung von Ausrüstungsgegenständen und die Leasinganlage PDI Panama mit den Mitteln, seine Betriebe zu erweitern versieht. Durch die Anlage hat PDI Panama die Fähigkeit, neue schwere Ausrüstung (z.B. die gegliederte LKWas, Exkavatoren, Ausrüstung, etc. zerquetschend), zu erwerben um unabhängig zu funktionieren und die Firma so in hohem Grade anzubieten - konkurrierende Rate, der zu erwartet Sie seien, senkt der Reihe nach die Bergbaukosten der Firma erheblich. Die vorgeschlagene Anlage ist abhängig von, unter anderen Bedingungen, gleichen und nachfolgenden Monatszahlungen von US$221,700 in vier Jahren und entspricht einem eingebetteten 7.5% Jahreszinssatz und der Kaufoption die Ausrüstung am Ende des Zeitraums mit einer abschließenden Zahlung von US$236,000. Ausrüstungsanlieferungen werden geplant, um während der sechs Monate im Anschluss an PDI Panamas Erfüllung der Ausdrücke der Barauslage aufzutreten. Die Firma nimmt vorweg, dass PDI Panama eine Schlüsselrolle spielt, wenn es den größeren Wert des Molejon Goldhilfsmittels freisetzt, indem es weiter Gesamtbergbaukosten verringert. PDI Panama beabsichtigt, bewegliche Ausrüstung der Erde zu kaufen und eine zweite mobile Zerkleinerungsmaschine, zum seiner Kapazität zu verdoppeln, von der Molejon Grube große Volumen der Aufbaugrad Gesamtheit zu extrahieren, ein vermarktungsfähiges Produkt für Infrastruktur arbeitet. PDI Panamas Extraktion der Gesamtheiten gesteht der Firma zu meinen zusätzliche Goldunzen auch eingehend zu und seine erhöhte weltbewegende Fähigkeit unterstützt die Firma mit dem Aufbau seines Haufenlauge-Goldprojektes. Zusätzlich bringt PDI Panama sein Petarcilla Lehmprojekt voran, das auf die Fertigung der Baumaterialien, wie hochfeste Aufbauziegelsteine, mit Molejon als seine Quelle für Material sich konzentriert. Diese Initiative trägt auch zur Maximierung des Wertes der Molejon Grube bei, indem sie die Rückstandnebenerscheinung von Goldförderung verbraucht und Langlebigkeit den Betrieben der Firma hinzufügt. PDI Panama ist auch in der Lage, die FirmaBaumaterialien an anzubieten weit weniger als die anwesenden Kosten der Baumaterialien in Panama.

Bin mal gespannt wie der Kurs auf die Q-Zahlen reagiert. Die dürften ja zum letzten mal nicht so toll ausfallen.  

Ja wie ich schon sagte, scheiß Zahlen. Gerundet 6,2Mio Miese.

Aber wenn man sich die Monatszahlen des September ansieht, wird einem klar das es besser wird.

Petaquilla Minerals Ltd gab unrevidiert bekannt konsolidierte Finanzergebnisse für das am 31. August 2010 beendete Viertel. Für das Viertel meldete die Gesellschaft Verkäufe von 2,097,919 $. Nettoverlust und umfassender Verlust für die Periode waren 6,178,563 $ oder 0,05 $ pro grundlegenden und verdünnten Anteil gegen 7,025,531 $ oder 0,07 $ pro grundlegenden und verdünnten Anteil vor einem Jahr. In Betriebstätigkeiten verwendetes Nettobargeld war 338,382 $ gegen 4,950,017 $ vor einem Jahr. Erwerb des Eigentums und der Ausrüstung 609,163 $ gegen 557,456 $ vor einem Jahr.

Petaquilla Minerals Ltd. Berichtsproduktionsergebnisse für den Monat und das Jahr bis heute Beendeter September 2010
06.10.2010

Petaquilla Minerals Ltd meldete Produktionsergebnisse für den Monat, und Jahr beendete bis heute September 2010. Die Gesellschaft gab bekannt, dass seine Produktion im September 2010 2,444tpd auf einen durchschnittlichen Hauptrang von 3.03g/t im Durchschnitt betrug, einen Monatsdurchfluss von 7.143 Unzen vertretend. Während der letzten Woche des Septembers 2010, Produktion durchschnittlich 2,734tpd. Diese Leistung vertritt eine Verbesserung von etwa 56.2 % über den Monatsdurchschnitt des ersten Viertels von 2011 (Juni-August) und ist das Ergebnis von bedeutenden Änderungen, die kürzlich in der Wartung und den Betriebsverfahren im Anschluss an das Wiedergeschehen von kritischen Ausrüstungsmisserfolgen während des Präzedenzfall-Viertels durchgeführt sind. Infolgedessen betrug die Ausrüstungsverfügbarkeit während des Septembers 2010 93 % im Durchschnitt. Wie man erwartet, haben diese Leistungsverbesserungen einen bedeutsam günstigen Einfluss auf Produktionskosten pro Unze für den Monat des Septembers 2010 und das zweite Viertel von 2011. Seit dem Januar 2010 baute die Gesellschaft 846.104 Tonnen Erz für insgesamt 48.094 Unzen einschließlich niedriger Ränge für für eine zukünftige Haufen-Liek-Operation bestimmte Aktienstapel ab. In dieser Beziehung vollendete die Gesellschaft eine große Säule, mit dem Lauf von mir prüfen Projekt, seine anfänglichen Goldwiederherstellungsschätzungen von etwa 65 % bestätigend.  

Super News!

http://www.finanznachrichten.de/...taquilla-production-update-256.htm  

sind klasse. Hoffe das nun auch viele Leute das ebenso als gut bewerten und

es langsam aber stetig aufwärts geht. Wenn man das so in den Medien sieht fahren

mittlerweile alle auf Gold ab, es wird mit Gold Anlagen geworben, sicherer Hafen Gold heißt

es. Hoffentlich verstehen die Leute endlich das es einigen Ländern extrem schlecht geht.

Bald ist Gold eins der wenigen Möglichkeiten sein Geld zu sichern und sogar noch zu

vermehren. Wenn ich schon höre das die FED mal wieder die Druckerpresse anwirft und

mehrere Billionen auf den Markt werfen will, dann frage ich mich doch wie die

Amerikaner so naiv sein können und noch an den Wert des Dollar glauben.  

da bin ich ja mal auf morgen gespannt und ob
mehr dahinter steckt.  

Petaquilla Announces Additional Exploration and Drilling Results
From Its Oro del Norte Concession

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 10/25/10 -- Petaquilla Minerals Ltd. ("Petaquilla" or the "Company") (TSX: PTQ)(OTCBB: PTQMF)(FRANKFURT: P7Z) is pleased to announce that it has received additional drilling, trenching and surface rock chip assay results from its Tucan Project and the newly identified San Lucas Project both located on its Oro del Norte concession in Central Panama.

As previously announced on August 9, 2010, the Company has commenced its first diamond drilling program on the Tucan Project located in the Oro del Norte Concession. Concurrently, an extensive program of surface rock chip sampling, trenching and detailed mapping continues across the concession.

Diamond Drilling Program
During the third calendar quarter of 2010, the Company continued its diamond drilling program on numerous targets identified by surface geochemical sampling during 2009 and 2010. To date, 29 HQ3 diamond drill holes for a total of 5,310 metres have been completed

Highlights of additional results received subsequent to those previously announced are listed in Table 1 below.

These drill holes were focused on evaluating the northernmost epithermal vein system identified by exploration mapping and trenching completed in the first calendar half of 2010. This northern vein system is one of three separate sub-parallel vein systems identified by the Company and reported on August 9, 2010. This northern vein system has a demonstrated strike length of 1.8 kilometres striking northwest-southeast. In several locations along its strike, the mineralization has been offset by 50 to 80 metres by transverse post mineralization faults. Drilling and trenching to date has confirmed the continuity of mineralization over its strike length.

Follow-up trenching and drilling will continue testing the strike extent of this northern vein system in addition to the two other sub-parallel vein systems identified. Several deeper diamond drill holes are also currently in progress beneath the main Tucan Project to evaluate the continuity of gold grades and depth potential of the mineralized system.

Rock Chip Sampling Program

The reconnaissance surface rock chip sampling program continues to expand across the Oro del Norte concession extending both south and southeast from the Tucan Project area. In addition, a detailed mapping exercise is being completed. This work is being completed to generate the next phase of trenching and subsequent drill targets.

Highlights of the reconnaissance rock chip sampling program are listed below in Table 2.

These rock chip results have identified gold mineralization extending over an area of 3.0 kilometres x 2.5 kilometres known as the San Lucas Project, which is situated three kilometers south-southeast of the Tucan Project. Both the Tucan and San Lucas projects are located within the same regional mineralized corridor. Follow up activity currently in progress includes continued mapping and rock chip sampling to define the dimensions of the mineralization at the San Lucas project in addition to continued sampling along this mineralized corridor. Phase 1 of the trenching program has also commenced and has returned encouraging results listed in Table 3 and discussed below.

Trenching Program

In conjunction with the diamond drilling program underway, the Company has completed 282 trenches for a total of 10,857 metres.

Trenching completed during this reporting period has been focused on both the Tucan and San Lucas Project areas.

Eleven trenches (prefix ONT-SL) for a total of 1,527 metres have been completed on the newly identified San Lucas Project and results for the first 710 samples have been received. Highlights of trenching are listed in Table 3.

dem Kursverlauf zuzusehen. Glaube das aber bald eine Korrektur einsetzen müsste
sonst überhitzt sich die Geschichte zu stark.  

Ja du hast schon recht...aber die Korrektur sollter erst kommen wenn wir wirklich heiß gelaufen sind...und für mich sind Kurse unter einen Euro einfach nur ein Witz

Erstmal muss der eigentliche Wert erreicht werden bevor wir korrigieren und das dauert meiner Meinung nach noch bissl;-)

 

Wobei meist kommt es eh anders

von daher immer cool bleiben

 

bis 1€ ist die Sache echt albern. Überlege ob ich nochmal nachlege, bei den news die noch in den nächsten Monaten anstehen, wird der Kurs sich ordentlich überhitzen. :-)  

Petaquilla Minerals Ltd.: 97.02% Gold Recovery from Metallurgical Leach Tests Heap Leach Project Moves Forward

Heap Leach Project Moves Forward
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/01/10 -- Petaquilla Minerals Ltd. (TSX: PTQ)(OTCBB: PTQMF)(FRANKFURT: P7Z) ('Petaquilla' or the 'Company') today announced that it has completed Phase 2 of its Column Leach Test Program on the 'Oxide Gold Resource' at its 100% owned Molejon gold mine.

Results show gold recoveries range between 72.43% and 97.02% from the on-site column tests completed on the Oxide Gold Resource samples.

As announced January 4, 2010, the Company has been working with METCON Research, an affiliate of KD Engineering, on the metallurgical evaluation of its Oxide Gold Resource. Working in conjunction with the Company's mine site personnel, METCON Research has been supervising this metallurgical test program.

Highlights of the results from the Oxide Samples:

1.  Crush size of 80% passing 3 inch achieved a gold extraction of 96.81    percent for the QZBX (Quartz Breccia) composite sample. Corresponding    Sodium Cyanide (NaCN) and Calcium Oxide (CaO) consumption was 0.21 kg/t    and 0.93 kg/t respectively.2.  Crush size of 80% passing 3/4 inch achieved a gold extraction of 97.02    percent for the 50% QZBX/50% Andesite composite sample. Corresponding    Sodium Cyanide (NaCN) and Calcium Oxide (CaO) consumption was 0.44 kg/t    and 1.57 kg/t respectively.3.  Crush size of 80% passing 3 inch achieved a gold extraction of 92.40    percent for the 50% QZBX/50% FQPO (Feldspar Quartz Porphyry) composite    sample. Corresponding Sodium Cyanide (NaCN) and Calcium Oxide (CaO)    consumption was 0.14 kg/t and 5.07 kg/t respectively.4.  Crush size of 100% passing 2 inch achieved a gold extraction of 94.97    percent for the Andesite composite sample. Corresponding Sodium Cyanide    (NaCN) and Calcium Oxide (CaO) consumption was 0.34 kg/t and 1.89 kg/t    respectively.5.  Crush size of 100% passing 2 inch achieved a gold extraction of 86.20    percent for the Saprolite composite sample. Corresponding Sodium Cyanide    (NaCN) and Calcium Oxide (CaO) consumption was 0.23 kg/t and 2.44 kg/t    respectively.

The results summarized above have validated the initial metallurgical tests completed by METCON Research in their Tucson laboratory earlier this year and now confirm that the Oxide Gold Resources at the Molejon Gold Deposit are amenable to commercial extraction utilizing the heap leach process.

Richard Fifer, the Company's Executive Chairman, remarked that, 'These results confirm our internal evaluation of both the importance and the added value that these oxide resources bring to Petaquilla and our shareholders. We have been working diligently on this project internally and with METCON Research for the past 24 months and these results will now move us into the final engineering, design and construction of the Heap Leach Project, which is designed to complement our mill production.'

Phase 3 of the Heap Leach Project comprising final engineering and design has already commenced and is planned to be completed by February 2011. Construction of the associated infrastructure is planned to commence February 2011 and continue to June 2011 to take advantage of the traditional dry season in Panama.

These positive results now make available for further evaluation additional National Instrument 43-101 compliant resources of 96.7Mt at 0.21 g/t Au for a total of 641,976 gold ounces (Measured and Indicated categories at 0.1 g/t cut-off) and additionally 95.7Mt at 0.16 g/t Au for a total of 495,885 gold ounces (Inferred category at a 0.1 g/t cut-off) at the Company's Molejon and nearby satellite projects. These resources are in addition to the National Instrument 43-101 compliant resources of 28.3Mt at 1.0 g/t Au for a total of 911,023 gold ounces (Measured and Indicated category at 0.3 g/t cut-off) within the Molejon Gold Deposit.

In conjunction with moving the Heap Leach Project forward into the final engineering and design stage, the Company is continuing its program of updating its global resources estimate. As announced October 25, 2010, this updated estimate is planned to be released in the first calendar quarter of 2011.

Also der Kurs kann dann ja eigentlich nurmehr nach oben gehn bei solchen Nachrichten!
Vorher war ich mir nicht wirklich sicher mit der Aussage von "anski100" das kurse unter einem euro ein witz sind, da hat sich meine meinung nun schlagartig geändert!

wünsche allen beteiligten das beste und hoffe das es schön nachhaltig nach oben geht!
