$TSXV Week in Review

Posted by AGORACOM at 9:53 PM on Saturday, February 18th, 2012

I though we were going to see  sell off into the end of the week as per my risk off post, but it looks like the equity markets are going to push higher and the $TSXV is going to challenge that 1,673 high – caveat: beware of a double top here and that November high. That being said, I remain relatively hesitant to take new speculative long positions but will re-enter into names I know, those that I believe offer a good value proposition. The overall volume on the $TSXV is in decline but we did start this rally on less. Again, ultimately I think 2012 will be a great year, but I would like to see a correction from the  post Xmas rally we have been seeing.

Here is where the $TSXV stands on the daily:

Here is the weekly view…. We need more volume flowing into this market to keep marching forward but this looks very promising for the rest of the year.

SKYPE INTERVIEW: Paul Gill Discusses Pending 43-101 On New Graphite Project

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 3:52 PM on Thursday, February 16th, 2012

As you know, AGORACOM conducts Beyond the Press Release Interviews for the purpose of speaking with small cap executives about recent news and events. Yesterday Lomiko Metals announced their intention to complete a 43-101 Report on Previous Drilling at the Quatre Milles Graphite Property.

LOCATION: The Quatre Milles Property is road accessible and is located approximately 175 km northwest of Montreal and 17 km due north of the village of Sainte-Veronique, Quebec. The property consists of 28 contiguous claims totaling approximately 1,600 hectares.

HISTORICAL HIGHLIGHTS:

-Graphicor completed reconnaissance mapping and prospecting as well as ground geophysics and a 26 hole diamond drill program totaling 1,625 metres.

-The work identified several conductive trends in the central portion of the property and at least three, relatively flat lying graphitic beds.

-Three surface samples were collected and analyzed returning results of 14.16% Cgf, 18.06% Cgf and 20.35% Cgf.

-23 of the initial 26 drill holes intersected graphite concentrations with graphite concentration in range of 4.69% in hole Q90-1 to a highlight of 8.07% Cgf over 28.60 metres in hole Q90-7.

-The highest individual assay was reported in hole Q90-10 reporting 15.48% Cgf over 0.50 metres.

Graphite Facts

-Natural graphite comes in several forms: flake, amorphous and lump.

-Southwestern Quebec is host to some of the most favorable geological terrain for graphite exploration in Canada and is known to host graphite resources, including the nearby Lac Des Iles mine operated by Timcal.

-Graphite has many important new applications such as lithium-ion batteries, fuel cells, and nuclear and solar power that have the potential to create significant incremental demand growth.

-There is roughly 20-30 times more graphite by weight need to produce a lithium-ion battery than there is lithium.

-Of the 1.2 million tonnes of graphite produced annually, approximately 40 per cent is of the most desirable flake type.

-High-growth, high-value graphite applications require large-flake and high-purity graphite which is the prime exploration and development target at the Quatre Milles Property.

Paul Gill, Chief Executive Officer of Lomiko Metals joins us to discuss the company’s exploration initiatives.

ZeroHedge / Alexa Ranking Contra-Market Indicator

Posted by AGORACOM at 3:18 PM on Thursday, February 16th, 2012

Don’t make fun of the image … OK, make a little fun … but you get the point.

1. Don’t bother with any Alexa data prior to 2011, as ZH was gaining steam.  The traffic trends I’ve noticed really come into play over the last 10 months or so … but Alexa doesn’t let you pull charts for specific time periods.

2.  I’ve always considered ZH to be a great fear gauge of the masses.

3.  When the masses panic and S&P is dropping, they run to ZeroHedge and ZH Alexa Rank Rises (see S&P 1,100)

4.  When the world is calm and S&P is rising, they go elsewhere (more traditional financial media) and ZH Alexa Rank Drops (see S&P 1,340)

The masses are feeling really good right now.

Investment Highlights

  • New discovery resulting in 20km mineralized gold belt
  • 10,000+meter drill program currently in progress
  • Recent Drilling Intersects 6140 g/t Au (197.4 oz/t Au) of Gold Over 1 Metre
  • Target Potential for multiple multi-million ounce deposits
  • Positive Preliminary Metallurgical Testing – recovery ranged from 97% to more than 99%
  • Dominant land position in the most recent North American stalking rush

The Bellechasse Gold Belt

Location

  • Site of the first gold rush in North-America in 1828
  • Strategic land position comprising 80% of mineralized belt
  • 554 mining claims spanning 24,436 hectares
  • Excellent infrastructure nearby

Geology

Gold mineralization in the Bellechasse area occurs in quartz/carbonate veins in albite diorite and related intrusive rocks, and also in minor amount in the veins within the volcanoclastic rocks that host the diorite.

The area in which mineralization is known measures approximately 875 metres along 045° and approximately 650 metres across the regional strike. Gold-bearing zones consist in quartz-filled structures which locally exhibit stockwerk pattern and may be brecciated. They are known to develop in plug-like protrusions of diorite emplaced in the country rock (T1 Zone) and in larger diorite masses (T2 Zone).

Mistango River Resources Answers: “So How Exactly Does a US investor Buy CNSX Listed Companies?”

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 4:05 PM on Wednesday, February 15th, 2012

  

We received the following from Bob Kasner, Chairman and CEO of Mistango River Resources, the other day.  Given the fact many US investors are getting more and more involved with CNSX listed companies, we wanted to share it with all of you.

We have received many inquiries from US investors about buying CNSX listed companies.

There’s two basic answers:

1.Any US dealer that can trade a TSX stock through a relationship with a Canadian dealer can do the same for CNSX stocks. The Canadian dealers have access to CNSX. Canaccord’s name comes up most often.

2.Penn Trade is a discount broker in Coeur d’Alene Idaho that offers on-line access to CNSX. US residents that want to trade can open an account with them and enter their own orders.

The list of Canadian Dealers keeps growing, Kudos to CNSX.

INTERVIEW: David Patterson Discusses Bracemac-McLeod Mine Development

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 2:45 PM on Wednesday, February 15th, 2012

As you know, AGORACOM conducts Beyond the Press Release Interviews for the purpose of speaking with small cap executives about recent news and events. Last month Donner Metals reported that the Bracemac-McLeod Mine development continues to track on budget and on time.

LOCATION: The Matagami Project covers the Matagami Mining Camp, a world-class mining district, with 18 known Volcanogenic Massive Sulphides (VMS) deposits including 10 past producers of varying sizes, including the giant Matagami Lake Deposit (25.64 million tonnes of 8.2% zinc, 0.56% copper, 20.91g/t silver and 0.41g/t gold) discovered in 1957 and mined from 1963 to 1988.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION: The area is host to historical production of 8,600 million pounds of zinc and 853 million pounds of copper. The Matagami area is well serviced by established infrastructure including the town of Matagami, power, a permitted tailings facility, railway, airport and well-developed road and highway networks

David Patterson, Chairman of Donner Metals sat down with George to discuss the progress of mine development at Bracemac-McLeod. David goes on to say how proud he is of the development team for keeping the project on budget and on schedule and how having Xstrata as a partner in this project has ensured cost control and has reduced risk for donner. The Bracemac-McLeod Mine is scheduled to be ready for production in early 2013.

Take Me To The Interview

BNN Zinc Feature and Donner Mention:

The largest glut of zinc in nearly two decades has been putting some pressure on prices, but Stefan Ioannou, Mining Analyst, Haywood Securities suggests that this glut isn’t all its cracked up to be.

Paul Kedrosky Provides Best Early Analysis Of Facebook … He Has Concerns

Posted by AGORACOM at 12:26 AM on Friday, February 3rd, 2012

Paul Kedrosky is one of the smartest and most level headed financial-tech commentators I know.   So when Bloomberg posted this video, I watched.  Lots of great information, though it seemed like the interviewer couldn’t keep up with Kedrosky’s brain in the last couple of minutes and failed to really get Paul to dive into a detailed discussion about growth opportunities.

Have a look at this 12 minute video.  Well worth the time, especially if you are considering buying the stock when it IPOs.
