MamamaMuley, it's at the bottom of the Nov. 19th PR, see below:

International Broadcasting Corporation Changes Its Name
International Broadcasting Corporation (PINKSHEETS: IBCD) will be making a name change from International Broadcasting Corporation to Copper King Resources Inc.

The name change will go into effect as soon as it is approved and a new symbol will be attached to the company.

Management does not have any intention of effecting a reverse split at this time, however, the offices of the company will be moved to Utah and there will be management changes.

muley, just check the IHUB quote page and click on the news. There you will see Wilf's name as contact. That is when I first started asking about the future of STL being tied to the stock.

Hi Muley and everyone! Sorry I missed all the board action today but I actually worked all day...my boss can be so weird like that! I'm not sure about Homie, maybe he will answer - I sure hope he was joking. I know Darrell has no plan to quit taking calls though. I have an idea - why don't you call in? Everyone would love to hear our good friend Muley!

I hope everyone had a great day - I'm pleased with how strong IBCD is behaving; not at all like the old days.

Have a marvelous night...see you all tomorrow!

Ally

Kennecott Utah Copper produces approximately 300,000 tons of copper cathode per year.

The copper is mined, concentrated, smelted, and refined at Kennecott's facilities west of Salt Lake City and delivered to our customers by rail. In an industry marked by boom and bust business cycles, Kennecott Utah Copper has reliably provided copper to its customers for almost one hundred years.

The copper ore, which averages about 0.6% copper, is mined at the Bingham Canyon Mine, where open pit mining began in 1906. The ore is crushed in the pit and moved by conveyer belt to the Copperton Concentrator.

At the Concentrator, the ore is ground in huge mills using steel balls and the copper is concentrated by flotation to produce a concentrate of about 28% copper. The concentrate is transported 17 miles to the smelter via a slurry pipeline.


Cathodes bundled and ready for shipment
At the smelter, the concentrate is dried in a large rotating dryer, then sent into a flash smelting furnace. It is separated into three products -- gases, which contain sulfur; slag, which is mostly silica and iron; and copper matte, which is 70% copper. After being cooled, the copper matte is crushed and fed into a flash converting furnace, which removes most of the remaining impurities to produce a molten copper, called blister, which is about 98% copper. Anode furnaces refine it further, and the copper is cast into plates called anodes, weighing about 700 pounds each and containing 99.6% copper.

At the Refinery, racks of anodes are lowered into an acid solution, interleaved with stainless steel cathode starter sheets. For 10 days, an electric current is sent between the anode and the cathode, causing the copper ions to migrate from the anode to the cathode. The other impurities, including gold and silver, fall into the bottom of the tank holding the solution. This process forms a plate of 99.99% pure copper.

An anode will produce two cathodes, each weighing about 280 pounds. The copper cathodes are Kennecott Utah Copper's finished product. They are stripped from the starter sheets, strapped together in 5,000-pound bundles, loaded onto rail cars, and shipped to the customer.




Product Specifications

Copper Cathode in approximately 2.3 metric ton strapped bundles.
Meets or exceeds ASTM Specification B-115-95 for Comex deliverable CATH, Grade 1 (High-Grade) cathode and BS EN 1978:1998 including AMD 5725 for deliverable Cu-CATH-1 LME-Grade A cathode.

Rio Tinto Says $150B BHP Stock Bid Too Low
Monday, 26-Nov-2007 1:40PM United Press International



LONDON, Nov. 26 (UPI) -- British mining giant Rio Tinto Ltd. said in London Monday Australian rival BHP Billiton Ltd.'s unsolicited $150 billion stock takeover bid was too low.
SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS



Rio Tinto Chief Executive Officer Tom Albanese said merging the companies to create the world's largest mining and natural resources firm made sense.


But he told reporters BHP's offer of three of its shares for each Rio share undervalued Rio and reinforced "that BHP wants us, needs us", whereas Rio could successfully grow as a global standalone company.


Rio posted a message on its Web site Monday quoting Albanese as saying Rio management believed Rio had "a better growth pipeline than our competitors, which puts Rio Tinto in a strong position to supply the metal-hungry world."


He also said Rio's value was "yet to be fully reflected by the market."


Speaking to reporters, Albanese said Rio had "listened" but had not "engaged" with Chinese government or commercial entities that said they opposed a Rio-BHP combination.


Chinese magazine China Business said Chinese steelmakers and the China Investment Corp. planned to team up in a bid for the mining company.


London's Rio is listed on the London and Sydney stock exchanges. No. 1 mining company BHP, of Melbourne, Australia, is listed in Sydney and London.
