Introduction
==> picture [8 x 4] intentionally omitted <==
ASX-listed minerals company with high-potential portfolio in Madagascar: Pro-mining environment currently attracting investment from several majors Drilling and exploring at three key 100%-owned projects in 2011:
Indications of a world-class Vanadium project and a potential significant JV partner (Energizer Resources Inc – TSX-V:EGZ). JV HOA executed for US$2.25M cash plus 7.5M EGZ shares Copper-gold-silver mineralisation
Magmatic sulphide Nickel-Copper-PGM
Industrial minerals potential, e.g., graphite being investigated
==> picture [8 x 4] intentionally omitted <==
Exploration has continued throughout 2011 from start of field season (May) Well placed to secure new mineral opportunities in Madagascar
Income stream from royalties on Labradorite quarrying and rental income on logistics base:
Covers all in-country overheads
