Petro Matad increases resource

Shares in AIM-quoted oil and gas explorer Petro Matad have jumped by more than one-third after the Mongolia-focused explorer said that the reinterpretation of its seismic data had led to an increase in the resources of the Davsan Tolgoi prospects.

March 21 (ShareCast News) Shares in AIM-quoted oil and gas explorer Petro Matad (LON:MATD) have jumped by more than one-third after the Mongolia-focused explorer said that the reinterpretation of its seismic data had led to an increase in the resources of the Davsan Tolgoi prospects. 

Petro Matad drilled three wells on the Davsan Tolgoi anticline last year and that has taken the number of prospects to 18 and offered three leads. This has helped to develop the 2011 drilling programme. 

The area covered is in the north eastern corner of Block XX. 

That equates to an additional 275 MMbbl unrisked and 211 MMbbl risked recoverable resource for the prospects and leads. The total unrisked resource for prospects is now 293 MMbbl, with a risked recoverable resource of 225 MMbbl

The main reason for the increase is the discovery of a newly defined unit in the Uppermost Tsagaantsav Stratigraphic Play.

Denison Announces Increase in 43-101 Estimated Resources at Hairhan Deposit in Mongolia

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - March 21, 2011) - Denison Mines Corp. (TSX:DML)(NYSE Amex:DNN) ("Denison" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that an updated resource estimate has been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) for its Hairhan deposit held by the Gurvan Saihan Joint Venture ("GSJV") in Mongolia. Denison holds a 70% interest in the GSJV with the Mongolian state entity Mon-Atom LLC holding 15% and the Russian concern Geologorazvedka holding the remaining 15%. The GSJV holds six exploration licenses, including Hairhan, totalling 181,574 hectares in the South Gobi region of Mongolia.

The updated NI 43-101 resource incorporates results from drilling from 2007 and 2008 in the central portion of the Hairhan deposit. This drilling comprised 278 holes totalling 46,000 metres concentrated in known mineralized areas in order to close drill spacing and to support detailed resource estimation. As a result of the drill programs, which increased the total drilling at Hairhan to over 118,000 metres, uranium contained in the Indicated Resources increased 151% and in Inferred Resources increased 67% over the resources reported previously in the report titled "Technical Report on the Uranium Exploration Properties in Mongolia" dated February 27, 2007, issued by Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates Inc.

Updated Mineral Resources by Roscoe Postle Associates, Inc. ("RPA") are shown in the following table. The resources were estimated using a cut-off of 0.02% U (0.024% U3O8) over a minimum thickness of 2 metres. The minimum Grade x Thickness for estimation is 0.04 metre-percent U (0.047 metre-percent U3O8).

RPA was retained by the Company to independently review, verify and present the mineral resource estimates for Hairhan. The Technical Report presenting these mineral resource estimates will be filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) within 45 days of this release. William E. Roscoe, Ph.D., P.Eng. of RPA, who is a Qualified Persons as defined by NI 43-101, has reviewed the technical contents related to the mineral resource estimates contained in this release.

The Hairhan uranium deposit is amendable to ISR (In Situ Recovery) techniques. A small ISR pilot test conducted in 1998 confirmed favourable geologic and hydrologic conditions for ISR at Hairhan. The next phases being planned by the Company include advancing the Hairhan exploration license to a mining license, designing a semi-commercial scale acid ISR plant, and initiating site construction and development activities in late 2011 and into 2012. The semi-commercial test will be intended to provide site specific operating costs and confirmation of production parameters to support a full commercial feasibility study and decision.

The implementation of the Hairhan development and testing program, as well as continued exploration on the other properties held by the GSJV, is contingent upon resolution of outstanding issues arising from enactment the Nuclear Energy Law of Mongolia in mid 2009. Foremost among the issues that the Nuclear Energy Law has raised are matters relating to ownership and structure of the GSJV and its projects. The Company remains hopeful that these important issues will be resolved in 2011 so that the planned programs can commence.

Hunnu Coal 2010 Annual Report

Manas Petroleum Corp. Financial and Operations Update for the Year Ended December 31, 2010

BAAR, SWITZERLAND--(Marketwire - March 21, 2011) -  Manas Petroleum Corp. ("Manas") (OTCBB: MNAP) is pleased to report that it has filed on EDGAR and on SEDAR its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The complete document can be viewed at either www.sedar.com  or www.sec.gov.

Results of Operations

For the year ended December 31, 2010, we had net income of US$74,442,353 as compared to net loss of US$21,618,015 for the year ended December 31, 2009. This increase in our net income is mainly attributable to non-operating income, which includes a gain from sale of subsidiary of US$57,850,918 and a gain in the fair value of investment in associate (Petromanas Energy Inc.) of US$25,851,061.

For the year ended December 31, 2010, our operating expenses decreased by one percent to US$9,421,318 from US$9,501,901 reported for the same period in 2009. For the year ended December 31, 2010, while we incurred lower personnel costs and lower administrative costs, we recorded higher exploration costs and higher consulting fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash balance as of December 31, 2010 was US$1,736,571. Our shareholders' equity as of December 31, 2010 was US$71,723,484. As of December 31, 2010, total current assets were US$2,191,848 and total current liabilities were US$477,001, resulting in net working capital of US$1,714,847. In addition, of the 200,000,000 common shares of Petromanas Energy Inc. held by us, 25,000,000 were freely tradable as of December 31, 2010. On December 31, 2010, the market value of these freely tradable shares was approximately US$9,997,000.

Going Concern

Based on our business plan for the next 12 months, we anticipate that we will need US$8,660,000 to fund our operations.

Given our net working capital plus our freely tradable shares of Petromanas Energy Inc., we do not expect that we will need additional funding from external sources to cover our monthly burn rate of approximately US$340,000 and minimum work commitments before February 2012.

In order to fund our operations beyond February 2012, we believe that we will need further financing. These funds have to be raised either through external sources, or via the sale of common shares of Petromanas Energy Inc.

As of February 2, 2011, we filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission and on February 1, 2011, we filed a preliminary prospectus with the securities commissions in all of the provinces of Canada except Quebec, for a proposed public offering of common shares to raise a minimum of US$20,000,000 and a maximum of US$30,000,000 at a price per share to be determined in the context of the market.

Developments in 2010

Mongolia

In 2010, we began to re-interpret existing geological data and plan for a gravity survey. This was to further define the location of lines for the recently completed seismic campaign on Blocks 13 and 14, in which we acquired approximately 300 linear km of seismic data. Also, we collected data from a total of 451 existing wells drilled in the Zuunbayan and Tsagaan Els oil fields area and in prospects. All well data was translated from Russian and Mongolian into English for analysis by international experts.

On August 31, 2010, we entered into a contract with DQE International Tamsag (Mongol) LLC, a subsidiary of CNPC Daqing Petroleum, for the acquisition of 300 km of 2D seismic on Blocks 13 and 14 for an aggregate total of US$1,050,000, payable according to a specific schedule. We were required to provide a bank guarantee over the outstanding amount, which is to be reduced according to the same schedule.

On November 10, 2010, we announced the completion of the 2010 seismic acquisition program for block 13 and 14 without incident. We intend to use the additional 300 km of 2D seismic data to improve our technical database and our chance of drilling a successful exploration well. After interpretation of the full dataset, we intend to decide whether we are ready to drill one or more exploration wells or we need to acquire 3D seismic to define the drill prospects in better detail. Depending on this decision, we hope to spud the first well in 2011.

Our plans for 2011 call for the acquisition of another 833 km (517.6 miles) of data at a cost of approximately US$3.35 million, including 303 km (188.3 miles) on Block 13 and 530 km (329.3 miles) on Block 14.

<Mogi & Friends Fund A/C>

84% & New Fund Math from Q2

Mogi & Friends Fund is a tiny fund of A$20.8K I created in late September with a few friends to put my own (and a few friends’) money where my mouth (just mine) is.

The Fund enjoyed another day of rally.

With the end of Q1, a new calculation method will be introduced as the Fund’s return will be reset on the beginning of each quarter. With this, I hope to create a much more understandable way of calculating each of my friend’s investment on a consistent and scheduled manner, and also to facilitate an easier entrance for new investment. This will create an opening 4 times each year for new investments. Results will be calculated from the beginning till the end of each quarter, much like listed companies.
