Diamond & Specialty Minerals Summary for May 8, 2023
2023-05-08 20:27 ET - Market Summary
This item is part of Stockwatch's value added news feed and is only available to Stockwatch subscribers.
Here is a sample of this item:
by Will Purcell
The diamond and specialty minerals stocks box score for Monday was a ho-hum 96-92-122 as the TSX Venture Exchange rose four points to 619. Ewan Mason's Star Diamond Corp. (DIAM) lost one-half cent to 8.5 cents on 30,000 shares.
Star Diamond's stock remains mired in the single digits, but not for a lack of trying. Late last week, Mr. Mason, chairman, and since the start of the year its interim chief executive officer, updated investors by newsletter about the "go-forward options" at both the Fort a la Corne and Buffalo Hills joint ventures. Fort a la Corne -- FalCon in the parlance of Rio Tinto, Star's majority but now inactive co-venturer -- is in central Saskatchewan, while the Buffalo Hills project is a 50:50 joint venture with Randy Turner's Canterra Minerals Corp. (CTM: $0.07) in north-central Alberta.
"We look forward to keeping you informed," Mr. Mason dutifully informed investors. He has now set a deadline for providing a major update regarding FalCon, and the negotiations with Rio Tinto regarding how the project might be returned to Star. Amicable discussions continue, Mr. Mason says, but the two sides appear far apart on what an amicable agreement might look like. Nevertheless, the situation will "come to a conclusion one way or another," Mr. Mason growls, adding that said conclusion will arrive no later than Star's annual general meeting at the end of the month.
STAR DIAMOND TECHNICAL TEAM BUSY ANALYZING GO FORWARD OPTIONS ON FORT A LA CORNE AND BUFFALO HILLS JOINT VENTURE
Fort à la Corne
Star Diamond continues discussions with our joint-venture partner, Rio Tinto Exploration Canada ("RTEC"), regarding their 75% interest in the Fort à la Corne diamond project. RTEC has demobbed from site and placed the project on care and maintenance.
Star Diamond has hired a number of consultants to re-examine historical data and the recent RTEC results. They will determine the most expeditious way to complete a feasibility study at FALC and move the project forward. Once these studies are complete, Star will announce the results.
Buffalo Hills
In light of our recent discovery of anomalous type IIA diamonds at Buffalo Hills, our technical team is preparing a field program which would result in the extraction of a bulk sample from the most promising kimberlite pipes.
We are currently in discussions with our 50% partner Canterra Minerals, regarding their interest in participating in this program. Star will provide more information when available
We look forward to keeping you informed.

Interesting GBDX is not dead
Global Diamond Exchange originally opened their office on 2 West 46th street in the heart of the 'New York's Diamond District'. After several years of operation at their New York office the company decided to shut down the operation due to low pricing and soft demand in North America. The company concentrated its efforts on exporting cut diamonds from the Russia Federation and European locations. The new company has reopened its sales offices in the original building ready to take on the increased demand for fine quality diamonds. Global Diamond has served the needs of clients around the world by providing diamonds of exquisite quality and workmanship. Russian diamond cutters are considered the most skilled craftsman in the world. Global has recently expanded its exporting to include rough diamonds from Russia. Global has contracts with Russian cutters to cut and export these exquisite brilliants from Russia.

U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
Litigation Release No. 20830 / December 15, 2008
SEC v. Pinnacle Business Management, Inc. et al., Civ. No. 8:02-CV-822-T-EAJ (M.D. Fla.)
SEC Seeks Contempt Against Jeffrey G. Turino for Violating Penny Stock Bar and Obtains Ex Parte Asset Freeze and Extension of Penny Stock Bar
The Commission announced today that, following an ex parte hearing held on December 4, 2008, Judge Elizabeth A. Kovachevich of the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida issued an order directing Jeffrey G. Turino to show cause why the Court should not hold him in contempt for violating a five-year penny stock bar entered against him on December 5, 2003, as part of a settlement of an earlier Commission enforcement action. The penny stock bar prohibited Turino from participating in any penny stock offering. In the December 4th order, the Court finds that the Commission had made a sufficient and proper showing that Turino had violated this bar by participating in penny stock offerings of Biotech Medics, Inc., Equitable Mining Corp., Global Diamond Exchange, Inc., Grand Entertainment and Music, Inc. and OMDA Oil and Gas, Inc. The Commission had previously issued orders temporarily suspending the trading in the securities of two of these companies, Equitable Mining Corp. and Global Diamond Exchange.
The order directs Turino to show cause why the Court should not hold him in contempt, should not require him to disgorge the unlawful proceeds from selling shares obtained in penny stock offerings, and should not make him subject to a permanent penny stock bar. Further, the order freezes certain bank and brokerage accounts held or controlled by, or in the name of Melissa Spooner, Robert Leslie, Mountain Passages, Inc., Austin Funding, LLC and CRL Holdings, Inc. Finally, the order extends the penny stock bar against Turino pending a final hearing on the show cause order.

Pahrump Man Sentenced To Six Years For $35 Million Penny Stock Fraud Scheme
Las Vegas, Nev. – One of the members involved in a penny stock fraud conspiracy that defrauded investors of over $35 million was sentenced today to 72 months in prison, announced Acting U.S. Attorney Steven W. Myhre.
Jeffrey Turino, 60, of Pahrump, was charged in an indictment with conspiracy to commit securities fraud and securities fraud in connection with a penny stock fraud scheme.
On Aug. 22, 2016, Turino pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit securities fraud. According to the plea agreement, beginning in about 1997 continuing until about March 2010, Turino conspired with others to fraudulently issue, offer, and sell stock issued by corporate shells which they controlled, including World Wide Cannery and Distribution, Global Diamond Exchange, Inc., Equitable Mining Corporation, ODMA Oil and Gas, Inc. and Grand Entertainment and Music, Inc. Additionally, Turino and conspirators engaged in deceptive practices and issued misleading press releases to promote these companies and to give the impression that they were actively engaged in the importation and sale of products, when in truth, the companies were hollow shells that did not engage in regular or substantial business activities, did not produce any goods, services, or profits, and did not commercially import products as promoted in their news releases. According to the plea agreement, Turino and his conspirators fraudulently induced investors to purchase billions of unregistered shares of stock in the companies, which the conspirators had deceptively issued without requisite restrictions and disclosures. Although these penny stocks typically traded for less than one cent per share, the billions of shares of stock that the conspirators offered and sold in the public market yielded proceeds of more than $35 million, which was divided and distributed among Turino and the other conspirators.
In addition to the prison incarceration, U.S. District Judge Jennifer Dorsey sentenced Turino to five years of supervised release and ordered him to pay $35 million in restitution.
The case was investigated by the FBI and IRS-Criminal Investigation; and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Kathryn Newman.

CMKM defendant Turino seeks six-year term
2017-03-22 10:56 ET - Street Wire
This item is part of Stockwatch's value added news feed and is only available to Stockwatch subscribers.
Here is a sample of this item:
by Mike Caswell
Jeffrey Turino, the Nevada man awaiting sentencing for his role in the massive CMKM Diamonds Inc. fraud, has asked for a six-year prison sentence. He says that he had no leadership role in the scheme and has no prior criminal record. He also points out that he pleaded guilty and has been ready to co-operate with the government.
Prosecutors indicted Mr. Turino, 60, along with Saskatchewan's Urban Casavant and others for a scheme to dump billions of unregistered CMKM shares. According to the government, the scheme generated $60-million in illegal profits. (All figures are in U.S. dollars.) Mr. Turino's role included routing share transactions through nominees and associates in Florida.
Mr. Turino entered a guilty plea on Aug. 22, 2016, leaving the length of his sentence as the only issue for the judge to determine. In a memorandum filed on Monday, March 20, he is asking for a jail term equal to the time that he served while awaiting trial. This amounts to six years. (He was arrested in the Netherlands in September, 2010. He remained in custody until a Nevada judge released him after his guilty plea.)

Man Pleads Guilty In $35 Million Penny Stock Fraud Scheme
LAS VEGAS, Nev. – One of the members of a penny stock fraud conspiracy that defrauded investors of over $35 million, has pleaded guilty to felony securities fraud charges, announced U.S. Attorney Daniel G. Bogden for the District of Nevada.
Jeffrey Turino, 60, pleaded guilty on Monday, Aug. 22, to one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud. He faces up to 25 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000, and is scheduled to be sentenced on Nov. 28, at 11 a.m. by U.S. District Judge Jennifer A. Dorsey. Turino, who is currently in custody, has requested to be released pending sentencing, and a hearing on the matter is scheduled for this afternoon at 2:30 p.m.
According to the plea agreement, beginning in about 1997 and continuing until about March 2010, Turino conspired with others to fraudulently issue, offer and sell stock issued by corporate shells which they controlled, including World Wide Cannery and Distribution, Global Diamond Exchange, Inc., Equitable Mining Corporation, ODMA Oil and Gas, Inc. and Grand Entertainment and Music, Inc. Turino and the other conspirators engaged in deceptive practices and issued misleading press releases to promote these companies and to give the impression that they were actively engaged in the importation and sale of products, when in truth, the companies were hollow shells that did not engage in regular or substantial business activities, did not produce any goods, services, or profits, and did not commercially import products as promoted in their news releases. Turino and other members of the conspiracy fraudulently induced investors to purchase billions of unregistered shares of stock in the companies, which the conspirators had deceptively issued without requisite restrictions and disclosures. Although these penny stocks typically traded for less than one cent per share, the billions of shares of stock that the conspirators offered and sold in the public market yielded proceeds of more than $35 million, which was divided and distributed among Turino and the other conspirators.
Ten co-conspirators were originally charged in the case. Four are scheduled for trial beginning Nov. 15. Two pleaded guilty and are awaiting sentencing, one is a fugitive, and two more are deceased

ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGS - SEC Seeks Contempt Against Jeffrey G. Turino for
Tuesday , December 16, 2008 17:31ET
Dec 16, 2008 (SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION RELEASE/ContentWorks via COMTEX) -- Following an ex parte hearing held on Dec. 4, 2008, Judge Elizabeth A. Kovachevich of the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida issued an order directing Jeffrey G. Turino to show cause why the Court should not hold him in contempt for violating a five-year penny stock bar entered against him on Dec. 5, 2003, as part of a settlement of an earlier Commission enforcement action. The penny stock bar prohibited Turino from participating in any penny stock offering. In its order, the Court finds that the Commission had made a sufficient and proper showing that Turino had violated this bar by participating in penny stock offerings of Biotech Medics, Inc., Equitable Mining Corp., Global Diamond Exchange, Inc., Grand Entertainment and Music, Inc. and OMDA Oil and Gas, Inc. The Commission had previously issued orders temporarily suspending the trading in the securities of two of these companies, Equitable Mining Corp. and Global Diamond Exchange.

CMKM defendant Turino pleads guilty

Jeffrey Turino, one of the accused in the massive CMKM Diamonds Inc. fraud, has pleaded guilty, as expected. The former Florida resident entered the plea in an appearance on Monday, Aug. 22, before Judge Jennifer Dorsey. In addition to pleading guilty he has agreed to a $35-million forfeiture order. (All figures are in U.S. dollars.) The judge set his sentencing for Nov. 28, 2016.
Unfortunately for Mr. Turino, the judge did not let him out of jail, as he had requested. She deferred that decision to a separate hearing on Friday. While the ruling is an unfortunate one for Mr. Turino, he will likely have his freedom soon enough. His plea agreement includes a sentence recommendation of five years, which is almost equal to the time he has served in jail awaiting trial. (He has been in custody since his Sept. 11, 2010, arrest in the Netherlands.) Assuming he receives credit for good behaviour, he will have served his sentence and more. He could still have to appear at the CMKM trial, however. As part of his plea agreement, he has agreed that he will fully co-operate with prosecutors, with that co-operation to include testimony.

Billionaire Soros scoops up $264 million stake in world’s largest gold miner
Cecilia Jamasmie | 2 days ago | 4,467 | 7
www.mining.com/billionaire-soros-scoops-up-264-million-stake-in-worlds-largest-gold-miner/
After three years of not buying gold, Soros Fund Management, a company founded by legendary hedge fund billionaire George Soros, is not only back to acquiring the precious metal, but has grabbed a US$264 million stake in Barrick Gold (TSX,NYSE:ABX).
The fund disclosed that it now owns 19.4 million shares in the world’s No. 1 gold miner, equivalent to a 1.7% stake in the company. That makes of Barrick the fund’s biggest US-listed holding.
It also bought bullish options contracts on 1.05 million shares in the SPDR Gold Trust, which tracks the price of bullion.
According to a government filing Monday, the firm also bought bullish options contracts on 1.05 million shares in the SPDR Gold Trust, which tracks the price of bullion.
The fund, currently structured as a privately owned family office, also took out a new 1 million share stake in the first quarter in precious metals streaming company Silver Wheaton (TSE, NYSE:SLW), CNBC reports.
Gold prices climbed 16% in the first three months of the year, the biggest quarterly surge since 1986. Shares in Barrick have more than doubled this year as the miner steps up cost-cutting efforts and reduces debt. The company is so far one of the best performers on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

According to Legendary gold trader Jim Sinclair,
The real gold show is only starting…
From Jim Sinclair:
Legendary gold trader Jim Sinclair shocked the precious metals community Friday by publicly stating that the US will be Cypruss’d, the current take-down in gold & silver is a last-ditch can kicking attempt by the bullion banking cartel, as that as a result of the coming derivatives collapse banking system bail-in, physical gold is headed to $50,000/oz!
Today, Sinclair updated CIGA’s on the fundamentals behind his $50k gold prediction:
I have a huge number of emails all asking why $50,000 gold. The answer is that the bullion market is in the process of emancipation of the gold price from the fractional paper gold system. The actualization of the real price of gold will be its emancipation from the prison of paper gold. The emancipation will occur because there is no gold whatsoever behind the deluge of paper we have just witnessed.
The central banks have most of their gold under lease. That gold was leased by gold banks and then sold for cash. That cash has been dispersed.
There are no funds to re-buy the gold that the leases call for upon maturity. The central banks cannot lease out any more gold. The entire fractional gold paper scam sits upon gold leases that are exploding right now.
The attempt to hide reality by the can kick of pummeling the gold market with paper is going to fail miserably.
Every time you buy one gold coin you consume more physical. It is the physical market that is going to emancipate gold. Gold then will be free to react to not only the debt due to foreigners, but all debt.
Please take your time to watch the Canadian documentary on gold here on JSMineset.com. It exposes the fragility of the fractional paper gold system that is now burning down because leases cannot be repaid to central banks.
The real gold show is only starting. For a great deal of what the Free-Golders think, they are right.
Sincerely,
Jim

United Resource Holdings Group, Inc. (URHG) receives Approval of an Exploration Permit from the Bureau of Land Management on BLM Mining Claims at the Dun Glen Placer Mine
Reno, NV – May 2, 2016 – United Resource Holdings Group, Inc. (“URHG”) announced today that the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”), has granted approval of an Exploration Permit for Dun Glen Mining Corp.’s Dun Glen Placer Mine (“Dun Glen”) located at Dun Glen, NV and the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection’s Bureau of Mining Regulation & Reclamation (“NDEP”) has given Dun Glen the permission to explore an area in the northwest corner of the BLM land, referred to as the "Pepper Pit."
The BLM issued approval of an Exploration Permit for Dun Glen, effective as of April 28, 2016, subject to posting the Nevada Division of Minerals Bond in the amount of Eight Thousand One Hundred Seventeen Dollars. Dana Low, Dun Glen’s President said, “This approval grants Dun Glen the regulatory authority necessary to explore the BLM mining claims at the Dun Glen mining site and explore areas where there may be higher gold recovery. This is another step in the continued search for higher value gold deposits that Dun Glen can incorporate into their long range mining plan.”
NDEP has given Dun Glen the permission to explore via a One Thousand Foot Trench in an area known as the “Pepper Pit”. This area has reported high gold recovery rates in past production from other mining companies that have leased the land prior.
Dun Glen has continued to work on maintenance of the mining equipment at the site while prospecting to define and quantify economic ore bodies with higher gold values since last month.
