Event Gippsland Limited has released a new Ore Reserve statement for the company's Egyptian Abu Dabbab tantalum-tin project.
Following a successful reverse circulation and diamond drilling programme, a substantial portion of the Indicated and Inferred Resources have been upgraded to the higher Measured and Indicated categories. This upgrade has seen the combined Indicated and Measured Resources increase by 30% from 25Mt to 32.5Mt, whilst the total Mineral Resource increased by 11% to 44.5Mt. These figures were based on a 100g/t Ta2O5 cut-off.
The Measured Resource is now 15.2Mt grading 290g/t Ta2O5 and 0.143% tin. There is a further 17.3Mt grading 250g/t Ta2O5 and 0.078% tin in the Indicated Resources and 12Mt grading 200g/t Ta2O5 and 0.030% tin in the Inferred Resources.
The pit shell has been optimised and currently contains an undiluted mineral resource of 29.09Mt grading 270g/t t Ta2O5 and 0.113% tin with 22.8Mt of waste. This results in an attractive stripping ratio of 0.826:1.
Other than a small change to the stripping scenario, there have been no changes to our modelling. The Net Present Value of the company remains A$331M, equivalent to A$0.61/share. The target price is unchanged at £0.27/share, based on 90% of the NPV.
Recommendation We retain our Buy recommendation with an unchanged target price of £0.27/share. |

Attached is some lighthearted reading - with a message. Best regards I am pleased to advise that Gippsland's presentation was well received at the Africa Down-under conference held in Perth 4-5 September. Please follow the link Gippsland Presentation to view the presentation which was compressed to fit in the 15 minute time slot provided. Attached are details of the fundraising Gippsland completed in London last week. The present international financial turmoil clearly presented difficulties in placing these shares, however it is important that the Company has sufficient funds on hand to vigorously attend to the development of our world-scale tantalum assets. Best regards We are pleased to advise that the Investor Relations section of the Gippsland website now includes a link to presentations made by the Company at recent resource industry events. Please CLICK HERE to view the new web page and the presentations. Gippsland will make a presentation at the Mining 2008 conference being held in Brisbane, Australia 29-30 October '08. This well attended event will enable investors and potential investors to fully appreciate the detail, quality and extent of Gippsland's world-scale tantalum-tin project which is scheduled to play a major role in the global tantalum industry for several decades. Best regards |
