The MiningMaven Podcast

Alex Borrelli, Chairman and CEO of BMR Group (LON:BMR) is our guest on the podcast today and we discuss the recent news from the company that on 5 May 2016 it received confirmation from Zambia Environmental Management Agency (ZEMA), that its Environmental Social Impact Assessment, in respect of its tailings retreatment process and the construction of its planned Pilot and Main Treatment Plants in Kabwe, has been approved.

This is s a significant milestone for BMR which underpins the value of the Company's assets at Kabwe. Alex Borrelli believes this is a significant step-forward in the development of a major, cash-generative business.

Andrew Bell, Chairman and CEO of Red Rock Resources (LON:RRR) is our guest on the podcast today in the first MiningMaven interview with the Company in over two years.

Red Rock was one of the best performers in our portfolio during the last mining bull phase between 2009 and 2011 with a share price rise of around 60x ! At its peak, Red Rock's market cap was in excess of £100m. As the mining cycle went into reverse, the company was forced to make drastic cost cutting measures and the share price now sits at around 0.6p giving the company a market cap of around £2.5m.

Having slashed costs to the bone and survived the worst of the downturn, Red Rock is now positioning itself for the recovery phase (Andrew Bell has earned himself the nickname "The Recovery Man"). As we always say, in this sector timing is everything.

You can see from the latest company presentation, Red Rock is now focusing on three things: Cash Flow, Gold and Oil.

In the interview Andrew discusses the company's investment proposition and why he is so excited for the company's prospects and the opportunities he is now seeing going into this recovery phase.

We hope you enjoy listening.

Gervaise Heddle of The Money Enigma is our featured guest once again, and in today's interview, Podcast No 16, we discuss his latest article titled: ‘The Perfect Storm for Inflation?’.

Here Heddle proposes that from an inflationary perspective, the perfect storm requires two key events to occur simultaneously: a sharp rise in the value of goods, and a sharp fall in the value of money. We then discuss what this means in terms of the outlook for commodity and precious metals prices.

In the second part of the show we take some time to discuss our mutual investments in Metal Tiger (LON: MTR) and Ariana Resources (LON:AAU) in the light of the latest news and developments from both companies.

Meet Gervaise Heddle in London!

We are delighted to announce that Gervaise Heddle will be joining us in London for our forthcoming MiningMaven April Investor Evenings with Metal Tiger, MOD Resources and Ariana Resources.

MiningMaven investor evenings are free to attend for investors though places will be strictly limited and advance registration is required. Full detail can be found below:

21.03.16 All the pieces in the Ariana Resources (LON:AAU) 'Golden Jigsaw' certainly look like they are now coming together as last week the company released news to the market confirming that a significant gold system has been confirmed at their Kepez West project in Western Turkey.

Highlights Include:

•Positive drilling results across 1,300m of strike confirm the presence of a significant near-surface mineralised system.

•Notable intercepts include 6m @ 2.7g/t Au + 16g/t Ag from 10m, 4m @ 3.2g/t Au + 23g/t Ag from 8m, 6m @ 2.2 g/t Au +13 g/t Ag from 6m.

•Results suggest a shallow-dipping (10-20°) stockwork vein-hosted style of mineralisation, with probable near-surface enrichment, amenable to low strip-ratio open-pit mining.

•Planning under way for the commencement of trenching across the project, with potential follow-up shallow RC drilling.

•Targeting delivery of a mineable resource from Kepez West, that may be scheduled with mining at Kiziltepe.

In this exclusive MiningMaven Podcast, Ariana Resources MD Dr Kerim Sener discusses the significance of these latest drilling results and also gives us an update on the progress the company is making across the board.. We also discuss the company's new Lithium investment and exploration strategy . We hope you enjoy listening!
