CAML confident over Mongolia asset

December 8 (StockMarketWire.com) - Central Asia Metals (LON:CAML) is continuing work on a feasibility study and environmental obligations for its Ereen asset in Mongolia despite some licences being on the government's 'revoked' list.

The Ereen gold deposit comprises five mining licences, three of which have been included in a list of 254 licences which the government intends to revoke.

CEO Nick Clarke said: "The key focus for CAML in the coming year remains the construction of our 10,000 ton per annum copper production plant at Kounrad. 

"We are obviously disappointed with the inclusion of our Ereen licences in the list of revoked licences. However we feel confident that the government has left CAML with sufficient area to encompass our known resource thus securing our title. 

"In so doing the government is showing some understanding of the needs of mining companies and demonstrates the progressive nature it has shown to mining in the recent past. 

"We also understand the state's desire to protect its natural environment which is very much a part of the attraction of Mongolia but it has to balance this against responsible inward investment into the mining sector. 

"We remain confident in the lasting security of our Ereen asset and this is evidenced by our continuing work on a locally based feasibility study and other environmental obligations."

Is Mongolia really a new mining frontier?

December 10 (Interactive Investor) Mention mining and Mongolia probably doesn't instantly spring to mind.

In a recent survey carried out by Canadian group Fraser Institute, Mongolia was dubbed the second-worst destination for mining companies, dumped unceremoniously behind the likes of Venezuela and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

But, nestled deep between Russia and China, this once-overlooked country plays host to potentially some of the world's largest mineral deposits - a fact that cannot be ignored by the global mining industry.

Despite bearing witness to little exploration, it is believed Mongolia has one of the largest undeveloped copper, gold and uranium deposits in the world, as well as the largest untapped supply of coal. Its location leaves it perfectly positioned to take advantage of the ferocious appetite for metals and coal from neighbouring China, which will be the principle driver of demand for Mongolia's mineral wealth.
