CMPANY RELEASES PMA – Windimurra reserves almost doubled

of the material mined will be transitional or fresh (unweathered) ore rather than the oxidised ore that had been the previous focus. This increases the likelihood that the magnetite recovery section of the processing plant can be simplified in design and increased in capacity without affecting recovery the company adds. The front end engineering design for the project has been completed and the focus has now moved on to the value engineering stage which will take around three months to complete. This will critically review plant design and costing in order to optimise plan performance and minimise exposure to capital cost pressure. Most significantly says PMA the ability to mine and process deeper ore which is more metallurgically amenable has the potential to improve the economics of the Windimurra project. Due diligence and documentation for debt financing have been completed and the next stage of the process awaits completion of the value engineering. PMA is in a strong financial position however with over A$80m cash at the beginning of this quarter and is therefore able to proceed with design and procurement activities during this period… This increases the likelihood that the magnetite recovery section of the processing plant can be simplified in design and increased in capacity without affecting recovery the company adds.

As tides ebb and rise South Korea prepares to snare them
International Herald Tribune – May 31, 2007
With a capacity of 254 megawatts enough to power the nearby city of Ansan which has half a million people the Sihwa Lake Tidal Power Plant would serve as a major emblem for a clean-energy movement in South Korea the world's 10th-largest emitter of global warming gases according to the government. But energy experts say that the building under way on the embankment of this lake 40 kilometers or 25 miles southwest of Seoul also represents a larger trend: coastal nations around the world are looking more seriously at tidal waves off their shores as a source of renewable energy. The world's current largest tidal power plant known as the Rance barrage has a capacity of 240 megawatts. Situated in northwestern France it was built 40 years ago. Since then no major tidal power project had been undertaken until South Korean engineers began digging here in 2005… About 50 kilometers north of here South Korean engineers plan to connect four islets with a seawall and build a tidal power plant three times as big as Sihwa by 2014. And about 50 kilometers south of Sihwa Lake the authorities are conducting a feasibility study for one twice as big as Sihwa although fishermen there complain that it would ruin their rich clam fields. “If our nation has no oil or natural gas reserves it is endowed with tidal power” said Yu Yeong Sun an engineer with the Korea Water Resources Corp. which is financed by the government and owns the Sihwa project. “This plant will generate electricity twice for a total 10 hours a day – as long as the sea doesn't forget to rise and fall. ” Along the coast here the sea rises up to nine meters or 30 feet from low to high tide. The Sihwa plant would generate electricity by using the movement of water between the sea and the lake which was created when engineers built a 12.
