ROK: TSX.V
VANCOUVER, March 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Roca Mines Inc. (ROK: TSX-V) ("Roca" or "the Company") has now received production reports and mill assays for the three months ended February 28, 2010.
The MAX Mine and concentrator continue to operate at Phase I throughput rates with good efficiency and excellent recovery. However, ore produced from the single production/stoping area during the period has returned average head grades that are below Phase I targets. The following table provides a summary of production data for the last three months:

Mill Availability (%) 97 100 100
Average Daily Throughput (tpd) 420 432 511
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 1: molybdenum contained in concentrate.
In October 2009, the mine experienced dilution due to a failure caused by the intersection of previously unknown structures in the stope, impacting production well into January 2010. The mine currently produces ore from the 805 stope and estimates for that area suggested higher grades within the stope volume than have been encountered to date. Development crews are now advancing on the 780 metre level where head grades for the operation are expected to improve.
The grade management challenges encountered over the last two quarters highlight the mine's current dependency on a single producing stope. An amendment application for the MAX Molybdenum Mine operating permit was submitted to regulators in early December 2009 and approval is anticipated shortly. The development of multiple stopes in the Phase II, 1,000 tpd plan will reduce the impact of the production difficulties encountered during late 2009 and early 2010.

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/ROCA-Reports-Second-Quarter-cnw-15075736.html?.v=1
VANCOUVER, April 29 /CNW/ - Roca Mines Inc. -
(ROK: TSX-V) ("Roca" or "the Company") has released its unaudited financial results for the three and six month periods ended February 28, 2009, including production and sales from the MAX molybdenum mine located in British Columbia, Canada. All dollar amounts are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.
Q2-2009 Highlights:
- Revenues of $11.6 million for September 1 to February 28, 2009;
- Cash flows from operations of $5.35 million or $0.06 cents per share
during the six months ended February 28, 2009;
- Cash costs of Cdn$8.01 (approx. US$6.80) per lb of molybdenum produced
during the six months ended February 28, 2009.
- Q1 and Q2 average molybdenum recoveries of approximately 95%; and
- Q1 and Q2 molybdenum in concentrate production of 679,697 pounds
and 451,130 lbs respectively.
Production Results and Concentrate Sales
The Company announced that it had achieved its commercial production targets on April 12, 2008 at its MAX molybdenum mine located in BC, Canada. The mine became BC's first new metal mine in a decade and the newest primary molybdenum mine in Canada.
Revenues of $11.6 million for the six months ended February 28, 2009 result from concentrate sales during September 2008 through February 2009 and reflect final and/or estimated final pricing at February 28, 2009. The Company sells its concentrates to a UK-based buyer with sales revenues based on average prevailing molybdenum oxide prices subsequent to delivery. The Company has no hedging program nor has it sold forward any of its production.
The table below is a summary of the operating statistics for the three months ended February 29, 2008:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 1: molybdenum contained in concentrate
During December 2008, a rockfall occurred underground at the mine which impacted the immediate availability of production ore. The rockfall was localized to the stope development area of the 875 metre level. No workers were present on the level at the time and no one was harmed. The rockfall posed no threat to other working areas of the mine, but did impact the production schedule for the second quarter ending February 28, 2009. A maintenance break originally scheduled between December 12 and December 29, 2008, was extended to excavate the rockfall and adjacent ore in the stope. The mine recommenced production on January 8, 2009.
Cash costs of production during the second quarter were higher than the first quarter as result of higher costs and lower production during December and substantially lower operating efficiencies given the twenty-seven day shutdown between December and January. Cash costs averaged approximately Cdn$9.35 per lb (US$7.57) of molybdenum during the second quarter ended February 28, 2009. For the six months ended February 28, 2009 cash costs averaged of Cdn$8.01 (approx. US$6.80) per lb of molybdenum sold.
Financial Results
The information in this news release and the selected financial information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements, and management discussion and analysis, for the three and six months ended February 28, 2009, which will be available at Roca's website at www.rocamines.com.
During the six months ended February 28, 2009, the Company recorded production revenues of $11,577,854 and a net loss of $11,850,042. Cash flows from operations totaled $5,349,824 during the period. The Company was in the development stage, had no revenues and a loss of $1,951,575 during the six months ended February 29, 2008. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately 15% over 2008, reflecting the Company's transition from exploration and development-company to producer.
During the three months ended February 28, 2009, the Company recorded production revenues of $3,267,337 and a net loss of $6,780,592. The Company recorded negative operating cash flows of $939,893 during the period because of lower grade ore processed in December of 2008 and the significant maintenance costs incurred after a rockfall occurred at the Max molybdenum mine. Cash flows from January-February sales and from an equity issuance completed during the quarter were used to offset these operating losses and to successfully restart the operation. The investments in mine development and underground maintenance at the mine ultimately allowed the Company to return to positive cash-flow in the latter part of quarter.

ROK: TSX.V
VANCOUVER, Jan. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Roca Mines Inc. (ROK: TSX-V) ("Roca" or "the Company") has released its unaudited financial results for the three-month period ended November 30, 2008, including production and sales from the MAX molybdenum mine located in British Columbia, Canada. All dollar amounts are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.
Q1-2009 Highlights:
- Revenues of $8.3 million for September 1 to November 30, 2008;
- Cash flows from operations of $6.3 million or $0.08 cents per share;
- Cash costs of Cdn $7.07 (approx. US$5.80) per lb of molybdenum;
- Average molybdenum recoveries of over 95% during the quarter;
- Average mill availability for the period of over 95%;
- Improved overall head grades as a result of mining experience and
grade control; and
- Total molybdenum production of 679,697 pounds during the period.
Production Results and Concentrate Sales
The Company announced that it had achieved its commercial production targets on April 12, 2008 at its MAX molybdenum mine located in BC, Canada. The mine became BC's first new metal mine in a decade and the newest primary molybdenum mine in Canada.
Revenues of $8.3 million for the three months ended November 30, 2008 result from concentrate sales during September through November and reflect final and/or estimated final pricing at November 30, 2008. The Company sells its concentrates to a UK-based buyer with sales revenues based on average prevailing molybdenum oxide prices subsequent to delivery. The Company has no hedging program nor has it sold forward any of its production.

Average Daily Throughput (tpd) 375 382 358
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 1: molybdenum contained in concentrate
Cash costs of production during the first quarter were significantly lower than the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 as a result of an ongoing grade control program and higher average grades received at the mill during September through November. Cash costs averaged approximately Cdn$7.07 per lb (US$5.80) of molybdenum during the first quarter. Daily mine production was lower than targets due to equipment availability.
Subsequent to November 30, 2008, a small rockfall occurred underground at the mine which impacted the immediate availability of production ore and therefore the mine's ability to provide ore to the mill. The rockfall was localized to the stope development area of the 875 metre level. No workers were present on the level at the time and no one was harmed. The rockfall poses no threat to other working areas of the mine, but did impact the production schedule for the second quarter ending February 28, 2009. A maintenance break originally scheduled between December 12 and December 29, 2008, was extended to excavate the rockfall and adjacent ore in the stope. The mine recommenced production on January 8, 2009 at a rate of approximately 500 tonnes per day.
MAX Mine/Mill Expansion
Initial production at MAX is focusing on the "HG" Zone, including an estimated 280,000 tonnes of ("measured + indicated") ore grading 1.95% MoS(2). Expansion of the mine and mill is being guided by prevailing molybdenum prices and an assessment of ongoing operating costs throughout 2009.
The Company plans to seek graduated permitting to increase the production of the mine over time including the Phase II mine. Under the current operating plan, a permit to operate at the as-built capacity will be required in late 2009. An application for this increase in production rate will be submitted after environmental and water quality data is collected and compiled. The information will demonstrate that the mine is working well within its compliance requirements and with minimal impact to the environment.
As a result of recent global economic uncertainty and declining commodity prices, management has undertaken several initiatives to reduce costs at the MAX molybdenum mine while continuing to operate under its Phase I mine plan. Phase II expansion plans, including completing capital spending for that expansion, are being minimized. However, the opportunity to rapidly accelerate that work has been preserved.
Exploration
Foremore VMS-Gold Project
The Company holds a 100% interest in the Foremore VMS-Gold project situated in the "Golden Triangle" one of the most active mining and exploration areas in north-western British Columbia. The property comprises 65 contiguous mineral claims totaling 23,609 hectares in the Liard Mining Division. Significant operations in the area include Barrick Gold's legendary Eskay Creek Mine, Cominco's historic Snip Mine and NovaGold and Teck Cominco's Galore Creek Project. Foremore has been the focus of the Company's exploration efforts dating back to the summer of 2002 and was the focus of exploration by Cominco Limited between 1989 and 1996. Roca's expenditures on the Foremore Project during the three months ended November 30, 2008 were $939,903.
SeaGold Property
The Company holds a 50% interest in the SeaGold Project, comprising 8 claim blocks of 4,000 hectares, centered on a number of gold and copper occurrences approximately 35 km north of Barrick Gold's Eskay Creek gold/silver mine in BC. The balance of the property interest is now held by Romios Gold Resources Inc. ("Romios"). Romios serves as the operator of a 50:50 joint venture on the SeaGold project. The Company did not expend any funds on this project during the three months ended November 30, 2008.
Lardeau Properties
A 2006 exploration program by the Company reviewed potential targets within a 100 km radius of the MAX molybdenum mine. This work resulted in the optioning of a 100% interest in four projects in the historic Lardeau Mining Camp covering an area of approximately 5,600 hectares. The Company has recently conducted exploratory prospecting and limited diamond drill programs on these four properties.
In 2007, the Company acquired by staking a 100% interest in the Butters Peak Molybdenum Property, located approximately 25 km northeast of the MAX Mine. Covering approximately 1,650 hectares, the property was originally discovered by tracing highly anomalous regional silt geochemical results to molybdenite float. The Company conducted limited prospecting and reconnaissance on the property in 2008.
In light of current economic conditions, management considers it unlikely that it will continue exploration on these early-stage prospects in order to focus on its more advanced mining and exploration projects in 2009. Therefore the Company has taken an impairment charge of the total $28,013 in expenditures incurred on these projects during the three months ended November 30, 2008. The Butters Peak project claims have been allowed to elapse and all other properties will likely revert back to the original vendors.
Share Capital
During the three months ended November 30, 2008 a total of 8,354,978 warrants expired unexercised. Subsequent to November 30, 2008, 121,000 options expired unexercised and 246,000 options were exercised for proceeds of $49,200. Also subsequent to November 30, 2008, the Company completed the first tranche of a $2.5 million private placement for proceeds of $1.4 million. A total of 5,600,000 shares, 5,600,000 warrants and 66,000 compensation warrants were issued, all warrants giving the holder the right to buy an additional common share until January 27, 2011 at a price of $0.35.
The Company now has 86,355,628 common shares outstanding and 101,438,378 shares on a fully-diluted basis as at the date of this release.
Outlook
As a result of recent global economic uncertainty and rapidly declining commodity prices, management has decisively cut costs at the MAX molybdenum mine while continuing to operate under its Phase I mine plan. Phase II expansion plans, including completion capital spending for that expansion, are being minimized. Similarly, exploration work at the Company's projects, including the MAX property, will be limited to definition drilling where required. Management will continue to operate the mine while it generates positive cash flow, recognizing that the MAX molybdenum mine was originally designed to operate at historic prices in the US$5-6/lb range. Significant gains have also been realized from the recent Canada-USA exchange rate and fuel cost reductions.
It remains management's belief that molybdenum prices should remain significantly greater than historic values for the foreseeable future due to i) production problems globally, ii) the reduction of by-product production related to copper mines and iii) the inability of new mines to achieve financing. In real terms, recent events have seriously eroded the global supply of molybdenum and management believes that a realization of supply and demand fundamentals in the medium-term will result in positive changes to pricing. It is therefore management's goal to remain in operation and preserve the opportunity to readily produce molybdenite concentrate in a rapidly appreciating environment.
In the interim, production at the MAX molybdenum mine will be limited to current target levels in an effort to preserve the molybdenum resource, and the mine will be readied, with minimal additional cost, for a rapid response to periods when greater margins on sales can be realized. Few other producers will have similar ability to ramp-up production.
Management has observed that experience with the geological controls on mineralization, its grade control program and underground infrastructure improvements have all served to dramatically reduce the average production costs and anticipate continued low cash costs going forward, consistent with original targets and plans for the operation.

Not much action either though that might change
Waiting on a grand opening and new mining permit ( these two intermingle is my hunch) and of course tadah the mine ramp up to capacity which (yawn) has been taking more time than I figured.
Ridiculously undervalued they are trucking out $19 million a month CDN moly concentrate right now so it goes and are about MAYBE 1/3 capacity presently best I can glean from management.
Management extremely economical with promotion though so be careful vits (sound familiar?) Functionality wise StockHouse is an absolute shambles has been for months IMHO so posters are pretty frustrated with that also. The ROK brain trust emanates from SH but there are a few other good boards out there.

Surprise ! Look where I landed. This dosen't look like Kansas anymore. No Kits here !
Ahhh so the new permit application comes soon
The fact they are working with the same gang of environment inspectors is a good sign and sure advantage as to working with someone who is new to the property.
All sounds good I imagine the grand opening might come later who knows!
