China’s Voracious Hunger Demand For Copper -



China Non-Ferrous Metal Company’s Luanshya Copper Mines (CLM)
is set to recruit 1,000 employees in readiness for the
beginning of production at the Muliashi open pit mine,
taking the total number of workers to more than 3,000.
CLM also plans to make an additional investment of more than
US$150 million to rehabilitate infrastructure at
Luanshya Copper Mine in 2010.


As of 2009, Chinese mining companies had invested
$768 million in Zambia, such as this copper mine.

“Whatever you may have read about a slowdown in China,
don’t let it fool you.
China is still buying loads of resources, with copper one
of the ones leading the way.
Lately many China-related headlines have sounded the theme
that the Chinese economy is losing stream.
And it’s true that – as Beijing’s leaders intended –
growth has moderated from its former breakneck pace.
For the month of December, year-over-year growth in imports
slowed to 11.8 percent, the lowest rate in two years
(though still not what anyone would call a snail’s pace).
GDP growth for 2011’s fourth quarter will likely have
dipped to below 9 percent.

At the same time, however, Chinese copper imports in December
hit nearly 509,000 tons, up 47.7 percent from year-earlier
levels and a record high.

This should dispel any notion that China’s demand for resources
will grow tepid.
While the number might reflect some seasonal factors –
for example, stocking up ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday –
the figure is still impressively high.
It also tells us that China doesn’t believe current price
levels, with copper less than $4 per pound, will fast for long.
If China did expect copper to remain cheap indefinitely, it
wouldn’t be buying so much now, especially given the continuing
soft outlook for the global economy.
As we’ve noted previously, the Chinese are long-term thinkers
who plan decades ahead.
They have obviously grasped that the world is moving towards
an urgent resource crunch.
So even if they can’t use all the resources they’re buying
now, they’re perfectly willing to stockpile them for later.
China has ambitious energy plans, including massive investment
in a nationwide power grid that will make feasible widespread
use of renewable energy sources. Copper’s high conductivity
makes it the key material for electrical grids.
Clearly, China’s huge demand for copper is part and parcel of
its development of an alternative energy infrastructure, and
indeed, the power sector accounts for around half of China’s
copper consumption.
While Washington remain hyper partisan and gridlocked,
China is moving full stream ahead to secure its future
energy independence.
And while China isn’t going to floor the accelerator as it
did a few years ago, recently, with inflation stabilizing and
growth moderating, it appears to have switched into easing mode
to ensure the economy won’t decelerate too much.
In early December, the People’s Bank of China cut the capital
reserve requirement for banks for the first time in almost
three years, likely portending a series of moves this year
to stimulate domestic consumption and stave off any ill
effects from Europe’s travails.
Beijing is keeping its thumb on the economy’s pulse and won’t
allow a drastic slowdown, which could foment social unrest.
So look for China to avoid the oft-trumpeted “hard landing”
and continue to be the driver of global growth.

In June 2006, TWP was awarded the design of the headgear, shaft
steelwork and underground and shaft rock handling systems for
the new 1, 5 km deep No. 4 Shaft.
The new shaft is being sunk by the main contractor, Grinaker-
LTA, which is also deepening the existing No. 1 Shaft from 1 km
to 1, 5 km. In addition to the shaft design, TWP is involved in
designing the underground pumping and settling system, general
electrical reticulation and control as well as instrumentation
associated with the project.

The sinking portion of the permanent steel headgear was designed
to South African standards and the contract for manufacture was
awarded to DSE Structural Engineers and Contractors in December
2006.
Delivery of the sinking portion of the headgear began in March
2007. At the request of the client, TWP designed the permanent
portion of the steel headgear to Chinese “GB” standards
utilising Chinese grade steel.
The design of the permanent headgear was completed in March
2007 and the contract for the manufacture of this portion of
the headgear was awarded to a Chinese supplier, Shanghai Matsuo
Steel Structure Co. Ltd.

Nama Copper/Cobalt Exploration Project, Zambia: Summary of Results of the 2011 Exploration Programme and Outline of the 2012 Exploration Programme




TORONTO, March 12, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ -

Caledonia Mining Corporation
(the "Company") (TSX: CAL) (OTCQX: CALVF) (AIM: CMCL) is
pleased to announce the results summary of the 2011
exploration programme at its Nama Copper/Cobalt Project in
Zambia and outline the exploration programme for 2012.

Highlights

The results from the 2011 drilling programme demonstrate a
new and very exciting aspect to the Nama Copper/Cobalt Project

A new mineralised copper zone has been identified
Estimated weighted average copper grade - 0.47%

Estimated weighted average thickness - 41 metres

Intersected depths of between 280 and 450 metres

A sufficiently large, near-surface resource up-dip from the
existing drill holes may provide the basis for a future open-
pit mining operation



The 2012 exploration programme will now commence as soon as
possible and will include the following three phases of
drilling:

Phase 1: 2,400 metre drill programme to explore for potential
shallower up-dip continuation of the new mineralised zone to
surface

Phase 2: 6,000 metre drill programme to explore for potential
deeper down-dip continuation of the new mineralised zone

Phase 3: A possible resource drilling programme to quantify the
shallower up-dip resources.

This phase cannot be finalised at this stage as the scope of
this programme is entirely dependent on the evaluation of the

Phase 1 programme results.
The costs of these drilling programmes will be fully funded
from current cash resources.

Commenting on these exploration results, Stefan Hayden,
Caledonia's Chief Executive Officer and President said:
"The 2011 drilling programme at Nama identified a new and very
exciting aspect to Nama.

What we have found differs markedly in mineralisation style to
other properties in the region in that the zone we have
identified occurs in an atypical Copperbelt setting and
occurs in rocks overlying the Ore Shale.



This zone of mineralisation occurs at relatively shallow depth
relative to the depth of the Ore Shale in the area and possibly
extends to surface.

A sufficiently large, near-surface resource depth may therefore
provide the basis for a future open-pit mining operation.

"The 2012 exploration programme will commence as soon as the rains and ground condition allow during the second quarter. The results should allow us to confirm and further refine our model of Nama's geology and copper resources potential. Caledonia has sufficient cash to complete the 2012 exploration programme and intends to manage its cash resources so that it can undertake further work at Nama without raising new equity."

Background to the Nama Project

Caledonia holds four, contiguous large scale mining licences covering approximately 800 square kilometres on the Zambian Copperbelt. The northern boundary of Caledonia's licenced area is the DRC border and the eastern boundary abuts the licence area that is held by a joint venture between Vale and African Rainbow Minerals where a new copper mine is currently under construction.

Prior to the 2011 programme, exploration activities had defined three main styles of mineralization in the Nama Licence area:

a) "A-type" cobalt oxide mineralisation;
b) "D-type' iron oxide bodies which are mostly enriched in Cobalt; and
c) Copper dominated ore shale hosted copper-cobalt mineralisation, commonly observed elsewhere in the Copperbelt and which is being exploited by neighbouring mines to the east and south of the Nama Licence Areas.



2011 Exploration Programme

The 2010 exploration programme identified two resource targets at Nama (being "Konkola East" and "Kafwira") which were characterised as belonging to the ore shale-hosted copper-cobalt style of mineralisation. The 2011 programme was focussed on Konkola East where a four-hole diamond drilling programme was carried out with the primary objective of confirming the existence of Ore Shale member of the Copperbelt stratigraphy. The results of this programme confirmed the existence of Ore Shale in all holes. The Ore Shale intersection in holes 1 & 2 was at depths and copper grades that do not merit further exploration at this stage. Evaluation of the drill core extracted from holes 3 and 4 identified a zone of mineralisation which occurs at considerably shallower depths than the Ore Shale and does not occupy a specific stratigraphic layer as would be expected. Assays of the mineralised zones identified in holes 3 and 4 were sufficiently encouraging to warrant a fifth hole being drilled in late 2011 and which also intersected the newly identified mineralised zone.

Preliminary Evaluation of the Results of the 2011 Drilling Programme

The new mineralised zone identified in holes 3, 4 and 5 is considered to be a contiguous zone. The assay results for the three intersections have a weighted average of 0.47% copper over a weighted average width of 41 metres at depths of between 280 and 450 metres. Holes 3 and 4 are approximately 1,650 metres apart representing a minimum strike length of the mineralisation. The interpreted structure of the mineralised zone suggests that the zone may extend to surface within the Nama Licence.

Although the copper grades of the newly identified zone are lower than existing mines in the region, the zone is relatively shallow and the ore mineralogy appears particularly suited to low-cost metallurgical processing.

2012 Exploration Programme

Caledonia's Board has reviewed the results of the 2011 exploration programme and the recommendations of management and has approved an exploration programme for Nama in 2012 which has the following objectives:

Phase 1: drilling of additional holes comprising approximately 2,400 metres with the objective of identifying a continuation of the newly discovered mineralized zone towards surface. This phase of the exploration programme is expected to start as soon as ground/weather conditions permit and results for this work are expected 4 to 5 months thereafter.
Phase 2: drilling of additional holes comprising approximately 6,000 metres with the objective of identifying the nature of a deeper continuation of the above mineralised zone. This work will take place after completion of Phase 1 and is expected to take approximately 8 to 10 months.
Phase 3: Provided the results of the Phase 1 programme are positive, a drilling programme focussed on delineating and evaluating resources compliant with NI43-101 will be presented to the Caledonia Board for approval prior to possible commencement. This Phase may commence during Phase 2 activities.
Substantial additional exploration work may be required in future years to arrive at a NI43-101 compliant resource statement.

Caledonia has sufficient cash resources to cover all of the exploration costs for 2012. Caledonia intends to manage its cash resources so that it retains the financial capacity to progress this project as far as possible without requiring third party involvement or equity funding.

Dr Pearton, BSc Eng. (Mining Geology), PhD (Geology), and Fellow of the Geological Society of South Africa, is Caledonia's VP Exploration and a "Qualified Person" as defined by NI43-101. Dr Pearton consents to the inclusion in the release of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.

Caution Regarding Forward Looking Statements:

Information included in this release constitutes forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that future exploration will identify mineralisation that will prove to be economic, that anticipated metallurgical recoveries will be achieved, that future evaluation work will confirm the viability of deposits that may be identified or that required regulatory approvals will be obtained.
