Update on Investments
The fund continues to assess new investment opportunities, but
whilst the fund is fully invested, the analysis of new investments
is not the main focus. The Investment Manager has recently taken
this opportunity to revisit the operational sites of the following
of its core holdings:
Ivanplats Limited ("Ivanplats")
Ivanplats' Chairman, Robert Friedland, used the Indaba
Conference in Cape Town to announce publicly, for the first time,
details of Ivanplats' Kamoa copper project in Democratic Republic
of Congo ("DRC") and its Platreef platinum group metal/nickel
project in South Africa. He also revealed the addition of a third
"tier one" project for Ivanplats with the acquisition of the
Kipushi zinc mine in DRC where grades of up to 40% zinc have been
found historically. The recent field trip to the Platreef project
highlighted the extraordinary progress that had been made during
2011 with 173,000 metres drilled in the second half of the year
alone taking total drilling on the project to around 500,000
metres. Revised resource estimates are in the process of being
prepared.
China Polymetallic Mining Limited ("CPM")
CPM is currently ramping up production at its Shizishan mine in
Yunnan province, China. The ramp-up appeared at the time of the
site visit to be on or ahead of schedule with 25,200 tonnes of ore
mined in December 2011. This represents an annualised rate of
297,000 per annum, relative to a full targeted rate of 660,000
tonnes of ore per annum by 2013.
Bilboes Holdings (Private) Limited ("Bilboes")
Bilboes is currently undertaking its Phase 1 resource drilling
on its Sulphide Project underlying its previously producing oxide
mines on the Bubi greenstone belt in Matabeleland, Zimbabwe. Assays
from the initial drill holes have been very promising and
supportive of Bilboes' target resource of in excess of 3 million
ounces of gold. The Phase 1 drilling campaign is due to complete in
April 2012 with a revised JORC mineral resource expected to be
estimated mid 2012.
