Bob,
I'm just joking about the wounded Jrs...I got left holding a lot of zinc and nickel after the huge run last year and did not sell..so I missed the CL like returns but I am a longer term holder and they are making their move...
I still hold:
SWN (Selwyn- undeveloped Zinc proven reserves)
SVT Savant (split of of their exploration arm)
MLG (Chilean play Tungsten)
DNG (Gold spinoff of Dynacor)
ADA and son of ADA (RRO, BUV) NoSleep is the expert here...
SST on the board recommendation
LBE like G. Nash and think it is well run...
EXM hold some small shares and thus my question...
Sold FNI, BN, LMC, CMM looking again at FNI....not sure about nickel fundamentals....
Miss my LIM and wonder when Norilisk will get acquisitive again.....
Am I diversified ;)

now we need CS.TO and BWR.TO to report decent quarters on Thursday...for the Quinella...(CS/BWR/GORO/LBE)

Shelton Canada announces new drilling at Lelyaki oil field in Ukraine
2/26/2008
CALGARY, Feb. 26, 2008 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX News Network) --
Shelton Canada Corp. (TSX Venture: STO) and Ukraine's largest oil and gas company, Ukrnafta, will drill their second development well as partners in the Kashtan Petroleum Joint Venture. Located in the Lelyaki oil field in east-central Ukraine, the well No.307 is expected to spud in the second quarter of 2008. The new well has a projected total depth of 1960 metres and will be drilled as a directional well to further develop the P1&2 and K-1 productive reservoirs. Recently-drilled offset wells showed initial productivity of greater than 240 barrels of light oil (42 degree API) per day (net 108 barrels). Net drilling cost is expected to be $450,000 Cdn and the well is in close proximity to pipeline infrastructure for rapid tie-in.
"This second well is an ongoing part of the Kashtan Joint Venture's plan to fully exploit the remaining oil reserves in the Lelyaki field through optimal placement of infill production wells," said Zenon Potoczny, President and CEO of Shelton Canada. "In addition, the Joint Venture anticipates re-entering and sidetrack drilling of four other suspended wells in different parts of the field during 2008. These well interventions show very good economics as the capital cost is much lower than new drilling. We have been very happy with the pool performance since it was acquired in mid 2007 and the first well (No.304) drilled post acquisition has averaged 185 barrels of oil (net 83 barrels) since coming on-stream in December 2007. Shelton's average daily production for 2007 was net 255 barrels per day. The Joint Venture sells its production at Brent equivalent pricing."
"Our strategic partnerships with leading Ukrainian oil and gas companies like Ukrnafta and Chernomorneftegas are a key reason for our success in Ukraine. Current net production is 350 barrels per day with further increases expected in 2008."
Ukraine is important to world energy markets and a critical transit centre for exports of Russian oil and natural gas to Europe. One of Europe's largest energy consumers, Ukraine also wants to increase production from its own basins. The country's proven reserves include 387 million barrels of oil and 39 trillion cubic feet of gas.

Liberty intersects 2.51% Ni over 10.4m at the Hart Project
EDMONTON, Alberta. Liberty Mines Inc. (“Liberty or the Corporation”) is pleased to announce that diamond drilling at the Hart Nickel Project continues to return high grade Nickel (“Ni”) intersections in the sulphide pool described in earlier releases. Diamond drill hole H-08-66 intersected 2.51% Ni over 10.4 metres of core, close to the central portion of the lower zone. This intersection confirms the grade and width of the orebody within the previously stated strike length of 210m, having intersected 50 east and up dip of hole H-07-63 which returned a high grade zone of 2.05% Ni over 9.8m.
Other boreholes in the vicinity intersected 2.15% Ni over 14.55 (H-07-35), 1.19% Ni over 25.55m (H-07-45), 1.15% Ni over 27.4m (H-07-30), and 1.37% Ni over 14.2m (H-07-48). Collectively, these boreholes have outlined the main sulphide pool discovered last year which remains open to the east, west and at depth.
The core lengths presented in the table are the intersected core lengths, and the composite lengths are core weighted.
Hole Number From (m) To (m) Interval* (m) Ni%
H-08-66 404.30 414.70 10.40 2.51
H-07-64 305.00 315.50 10.50 0.65
Including 1.50 2.10
* True widths are generally 70-95% of reported widths, where possible to ascertain.
In cases where data is sparse true widths are yet unknown.
Borehole Coordinates
Hole Number Collar Coordinates Azimuth Dip
Easting Northing Elevation
H-07-64 2450 3850 2300.6 360 -66
H-08-66 2500 3800 2300 360 -68
Borehole H-07-64 intersected the upper edge of the same zone approximately 25m east of previously released borehole H-07-61. Together they represent what is, at present, the upper margin of the embayment that led to major sulphide accumulation. This area will be tested further to determine the margins with increased confidence.
“Hart continues to deliver,” said William Randall, Liberty’s Vice President of Exploration. “This latest drill hole confirms the economic potential of the orebody, returning concentrations high enough to compensate for weaker nickel commodity prices, should they occur. And, as stated previously, the large sulphide pool is wide open to the east, west and at depth.” he added.
The project was supervised by Liberty’s Vice President of Exploration, William Randall MSc (Geology), Tyron Breytenbach BSc (Geology) and by Richard Allard P. Geo., a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed the contents of this release. According to the company sampling protocol, half of the diamond drill core is sampled and sent to ALS CHEMEX in Timmins to be prepared for analysis. The prepared samples are then forwarded to the ALS CHEMEX Laboratory in Vancouver for analysis. Base metal values are analyzed by aqua regia digestion and ICP-AES finish. A rigorous QA/QC program is implemented consisting of regular insertion of standards and blanks to ensure laboratory integrity.

***********************************
Kroes Energy Inc. Enters Into Preliminary Agreement With Vecta Energy Corporation
2/8/2008
CALGARY, ALBERTA, Feb 8, 2008 (Marketwire via COMTEX News Network) --
Kroes Energy Inc. ("Kroes") (TSX VENTURE:KRS) and Vecta Energy Corporation ("Vecta"), a private Alberta corporation, are pleased to announce that they have entered into an agreement dated January 28, 2008, whereby Kroes and Vecta will merge, as equals, all of their businesses and operations. The merger will be accomplished by Kroes making a take-over bid for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Vecta. It is expected that the transaction will be a "Fundamental Acquisition" pursuant to TSX Venture Exchange ("the Exchange") Policy 5.3. Vecta is in the process of completing a formal independent geological report, as well as filing relevant Personal Information Forms for new Insiders of Kroes. In the meantime it is anticipated that the Exchange will halt trading in Kroes' shares. A further news release will be issued upon acceptance of the geological report by the Exchange and filing of the PIFs. In addition, Vecta is in the process of preparing audited financial statements which will be released in due course.
As per the Kroes and Vecta agreement, each holder of a Vecta common share will be offered 2.456633 common shares of Kroes and 0.54220918 of one Class 1 Kroes Performance Warrant. In exchange for cancellation of a debenture granted by Vecta, the holder of the debenture will be offered 6,612,500 common shares of Kroes and 5,312,500 Class 2 Kroes Performance Warrants. The Class 1 Performance Warrants and the Class 2 Performance Warrants will be converted into 5,312,500 common shares of Kroes 40 days following closing of the transaction, with the allocation of these additional common shares to be determined by Kroes' share price performance over the 40 day period.
If the take-over bid is successful, Kroes will issue 36,000,000 common shares to the shareholders of Vecta and to the holder of the Vecta debenture. The take-over bid by Kroes and the completion of the merger are subject to the conclusion of a definitive agreement between the parties, finalization of due diligence and regulatory approval.
This transaction is the result of arm's length negotiations between the parties. Prior to these negotiations there existed no relationship between the two parties. There is no finder's fee to be paid.
Kroes is a junior oil & gas company with non-operated production of approximately 100 barrels of oil equivalent ("BOE") per day from its shallow gas interests in central Alberta. Vecta is a private oil & gas exploration company that began operations in Alberta in 2005 with financial and technical support from Vecta Oil & Gas Ltd. ("Vecta Oil") of Dallas Texas, a company that developed sophisticated seismic technology that enhances the ability to evaluate prospective exploratory lands. This advanced technology has been applied in the evaluation of the lands acquired by Vecta in Western Canada and Vecta Oil will continue to provide high-end geological and geophysical expertise to the combined company.

I think John McCain should have Barrack as his VP candidate...he is already an independent/centrist...could temper the dude from illinois populist rhetoric...forget the conservative right which he doesn't have anyway, keep the anti-hilary votes and pick up a ton of votes on the democratic center....
then we can get a government of the center that actually accomplishes someting on health care, social security reform, finishes up in Iraq and continues to fight in Afghanistan, works on class divisions in the US etc.....
I love happy hour....
