  • ZNext Mining Corp., Inc. (ZNXT: Pink Quote) | CEO Letter to Shareholders & Investors

    CEO Open Letter To ZNext Mining - PEARL Asian Mining SHAREHOLDERS & INVESTORS

     

     

    Libona, Bukidnon, Philippines (Market Wire) – March 15, 2010 – ZNEXT Mining Corp Inc. (PEARL Asian Mining - OTC.PK Stock Symbols: ZNXT for Common: ZNXPP for Preferred) presents CEO Letter to all Shareholders and Investors.

     

    To Our Valued Shareholders & Investors

     

    I am writing on behalf of the members of the Board of Directors of  PEARL Asian Mining –  ZNext  Mining, but first, please accept my congratulations and sincere thanks on being a shareholder in PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc. –ZNEXT Mining (Symbols: ZNXT / ZNXPP). As a shareholder of PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc- ZNEXT Mining, I am sure you will be excited when you learn about the progress we are making to enhance the value of your investment.

     

    Our primary business objective is to take our current mining claims to full production and development of our small scale mining operations, re-enhancement of our existing gold processing plant in Gango, Bukidnon and finally the production of the refined and internationally hallmarked gold, silver and other precious metals. There will be a continued focus on obtaining our large scale mining permit called “MPSA”, the expansion and acquisition of other interests related to the mining and other natural resources in various islands of the Philippines. These continued efforts are aimed at providing genuine value for your stock and interest in PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc. Additional facts and information are detailed on our website www.pearlmining.com. I invite you to visit to learn more about your investment from our website and do not hesitate to contact us directly instead of relying on the other sources where stock bashers are present to discourage investors and to destroy the company.

     

    The main purpose of this letter is to announce our company’s final step in the capital restructuring, with the goal in mind of becoming a fully reporting public company both in the U.S.A and Europe. A Special Board Meeting of PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc. was held in Bukidnon, Philippines on March 8, 2010, discussed our “2010 Business Goal” of being traded on the Deutsche of Boerse, Germany and engaging the legal services of a USA SEC Lawyer to assist our company for all its current and future SEC reporting requirements. The realities are stark and inarguable.

     

    We are fully aware of the effect and implication of the various past management corporate actions not only to our valued shareholders and investors but to our company as a whole. We also recognize that it had drastic effects on the massive short-selling of OTC. Pinks companies like ours that has become habitual in the marketplace. Despite the short-term painful effects of the past corporate actions, our new managerial decisions and transitions that were announced in the recent 2010 Press Releases, believe it is in the best long-term interest of the company and its shareholders.

     

    As many of you are aware, throughout nearly six years, PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc, had crawled, walked and limped, and thus ended up in becoming victim of naked short sellers and stock manipulations with a massive and uncontrollable stock float, (past Stock Symbol: PAIM), as well as becoming a victim of the disloyalty of its several top management officers and directors.

     

    PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc - ZNEXT Mining had been the victim of people like the known “stock bashers.”  These people with anonymous posters, including the former VP/ Business Dev. & IR Officer- Gary Gotanco, had posted defamatory communications on stock chat websites. Some of them may be paid by short sellers or by predatory persons seeking to drive the PEARL Asian – ZNEXT Mining Stock down so they can buy them cheap, or even by competitors.

    There was no easy solution to stop the spread of this cancer-like disease that affected our company. PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc - ZNEXT Mining believed in itself and continued to withstand all these setbacks. We continued to grow and moved forward, despite every negative circumstance that we faced. We are now beginning to reap the rewards of our fortitude in the form of forthcoming revenues, discernible growth and a realistic goal of becoming fully reporting company as well as becoming a European - German publicly traded company. Obviously, success and revenues are the best antidote for all of the ills of the past and we are totally focused on a bright future.

     

    Encouraged by our future outlook, we believe our newly hired legal counsel’s advice will be prudent in this matter, that SEC Rules, Regulations and guidelines must be adhered to if we wish PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc - ZNEXT Mining, become fully accredited as a true public company with a reasonable amount of control over its destiny in the public markets. We must tighten up the slack and the market’s appetite for unbridled short plays. This, we are confident, is in the best interest of everyone!

     

    Of course, our company must prove to the public and our shareholders that we care about them and the money invested to the company is well acknowledged and appreciated; that PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc - ZNEXT Mining is a viable gold mining company and our gold productions and revenues are at hand. We understand your skepticism, and we look forward to reporting to you the results of our 2010 Annual Financial Statements.

     

    PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc - ZNEXT Mining was created and became public with a mission of building an admirable public mining company associated with genuine value. We recognize that to be of genuine value to our shareholders, we must provide sustained liquidity. Our capital restructuring is designed to provide just that. While many investors trade “the numbers game,” we want PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc - ZNEXT Mining to be attractive primarily on the basis of its fundamentals, its growth strategies, and its tangible results. And, despite the reliance on charts and graphs among certain trading factions, real companies make it through the noise. We want PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc - ZNEXT Mining to be one of those.

     

    Investing in today’s market environment and in the mining industry segment requires homework, diversification and patience. Get-rich-quick schemes come and go all the time. Thus, we urge our valued shareholders to take a prudent approach in setting up an investment strategy with their financial advisors.

     

    Lastly, as an investor in PEARL Asian Mining Industries Inc - ZNEXT Mining, it is important for you to know that we respect your privacy. In order for the company to comply with the U.S.A. & European corporate business regulations, it must maintain an updated, complete and accurate list of stockholders, their addresses, the number of shares, classes of stock held, issue date, and the certificate numbers of each stock which they hold.

    NR10-08                                                                                                                   March 12, 2010

     

    Dorato Receives Additional Taricori

    Drill Results from Minera Afrodita

     

    TAR-013: 38.93 m grading 7.12 g/t gold (0.2 oz/t)

    including 7.37 m grading 33.78 g/t gold (0.98 oz/t)

     

    Minera Afrodita Permit in Good Standing

     

    Vancouver, British Columbia - Dorato Resources Inc. (“Dorato” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: DRI, Frankfurt:D05) is pleased to announce that it has received provisional assay results from Minera Afrodita relating to drillhole TAR-013 in the Taricori Gold Zone within the Cordillera Del Condor project in northwest Peru.  Dorato has a right to acquire 100% of Minera Afrodita. 

     

    Provisional assay results for drillhole TAR-013 indicate a broad zone of high-grade gold and silver mineralization; 38.93 metres grading 7.12 g/t (0.2 oz/t) gold and 48.4 g/t (1.4 oz/t) silver.  This interval includes a core, higher-grade zone of 7.37 metres grading 33.78 g/t (0.98 oz/t) gold and 151.9 g/t (4.4 oz/t) silver.

     

    “Final drill results for TAR-012, reported last week as 18.0 metres grading 41.58 g/t gold, provided initial indications that the Taricori Zone hosts significant high-grade gold and silver mineralization,” stated Keith Henderson, Dorato’s President and CEO. “We are very excited with this additional high-grade intersection from TAR-013, including 7.37 metres grading 33.78 g/t gold, and we look forward to reporting additional drill results as they become available.”

     

    “Drilling is testing high-grade gold mineralization, close to the contact between footwall intrusive and hanging wall volcanic rocks.” continued Henderson, “The mineralized zone is open at depth and along strike.  Drilling to date has only tested 250 metres of strike length, whereas the prospective contact has actually been mapped over a strike length of more than 3 kilometres.”

    151.9 g/t

    *using a cut-off of 0.25 g/t gold and allowing 2.5m of dilution

     

    Results are provisional because several samples, grading more than 30 g/t gold, have been submitted for metallic screen analysis.  Metallic screen assay results are more representative than traditional gravimetric assay due to a larger sample weight where the grade is weighted between fine and coarse fractions.  Final results will be reported when available. 

     

    Drill Results Details

     

    Drillhole TAR-013 was drilled in a northwest direction to intersect a northeast-southwest trending structure that has been historically exploited by informal miners.  Highlights include; 38.93 metres grading 7.12 g/t gold and 48.4 g/t silver.  This interval includes a core, higher-grade zone of 7.37 metres grading 33.78 g/t gold and 151.9 g/t silver.  There is insufficient drill data to determine the true width of the intersection as core angles within the zone are extremely variable.  The mineralized zone is presently interpreted to be related to northeast-trending structures (plotted as veins on Figure 1) and as such is close to true width. 

     

    Previously, drillhole TAR-012 was drilled northward to test an east-west mineralized zone and returned 18.0 metres grading 41.58 g/t gold.  In general terms, the grade and thickness of mineralized intersections is increasing to the east and follow-up drilling will continue to test the strike extensions of this significant mineralized zone over the 3 kilometre-long mapped contact as well as testing the depth extents of the mineralization.  Depth extents are unknown to date, but the Dynasty Mining and Metal’s Jerusalem deposit (measured & indicated resource of 0.58 million contained ounces gold at 12.4 g/t gold plus an inferred resource of 0.71 million ounces at 11.5 g/t gold) is located just across the border in Ecuador, several hundred metres west of the Taricori Zone, and extends to 450 metres depth from surface.  Drilling to date at Taricori has tested 250 metres of strike length and less than 100 metres vertically within the mineralized zone. 

     

     

     

    Cordillera Del Condor Background

     

    The Cordillera Del Condor District has been one of the most important gold-bearing areas in Ecuador and Peru since pre-Incan times.  On the Ecuador side of the border, historical small-scale but high-grade, gold production is reported to have exceeded 100,000 ozs. per year. 

     

    Modern exploration on the Ecuadorian side of the border has recently resulted in the discovery of multiple world-class gold and base metal-bearing deposits, such as Kinross Gold Corp’s Fruta del Norte Gold deposit (inferred resources of 13.6 million contained ounces gold at 7.23 g/t gold), Corriente Resources Inc.’s Mirador Copper-Gold porphyry deposit (measured & indicated resources of 438 million tonnes at 0.61% copper, 0.19 g/t gold, and inferred resources of 235 million tonnes at 0.52% copper, 0.17 g/t gold) and the Mirador Norte Copper-Gold porphyry deposit (171 million indicated tonnes at 0.51% copper, 0.09 g/t gold plus 46 million inferred tonnes at 0.51% copper, 0.07 g/t gold), and Dynasty Metals & Mining Inc’s Jerusalem Gold deposit in the Chinapintza district (measured & indicated resources of  0.58 million ounces gold at 12.4 g/t gold plus an inferred resource of  0.71 million ounces at 11.5 g/t gold).  The technical information with respect to the above deposits was obtained through the respective company’s public disclosure documents available on SEDAR.

     

    Qualified Person

     

    EurGeol Keith J. Henderson, P.Geo. Dorato’s President and CEO and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed the scientific and technical information that forms the basis for this news release.  Mr. Henderson is not independent of the Company as he is an officer and a director.

     

    The analytical results were reviewed by Tansy O’Connor-Parsons, Senior Geochemist.  Minera Afrodita on-site personnel rigorously collect and track samples which are then security sealed and shipped to ACME Laboratories, Cuenca, Ecuador for preparation and on to Vancouver, BC for analysis.  Au is analyzed by fire assay on a 30g aliquot followed by fusion and an ICP-OES finish.  Samples greater than 10 ppm are analyzed by classical gravimetric fire assay. ACME's quality system complies with the requirements for the international standards ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 17025:1999.  Analytical accuracy and precision are monitored by the analysis of reagent blanks, reference material and replicate samples.  Quality control is further assured by the use of international and in-house standards.  Certified reference material, blank material, and quarter-core duplicates are inserted at regular intervals into the sample sequence by field personnel prior to shipping in order to independently assess analytical accuracy and precision. In addition, representative blind duplicate samples are routinely forwarded an ISO-compliant third party laboratory for additional quality control.

Tytan International, Inc. has been part of a plan that started in 2004. Mark Leonard the founder was the first pioneer of tractors from China to the USA. He was responsible for developing such things as power steering, two stage clutches, live engine run hydraulic pumps, hydraulic remotes and much more. Mark's trademarked name at the time was Rhino International Inc. Rhino grew to the 150 dealers in a 4 year period, after it had completed its product improvements.

  • Riverdale Oil & Gas Corp. (RVDO: Pink Quote) | Riverdale Oil and Gas Announces a New Oil Discovery
    Riverdale Oil and Gas Corporation (RVDO) has discovered a new and significant oil pay in its Foster #6 well, situated in Jim Wells Co., Texas.

    During a scheduled deepening operation to a deeper untested gas sand, the Foster #6 well began building a very high pressure as the downhole equipment was beginning to be removed. After the well was contained and new equipment installed, the well began flowing back half of its load water before turning to 100% oil. After 6 barrels of oil, the well began plugging with the debris from the initial drilling operations. The well has been cleaned down to the upper perforations, and has had shut-in pressures of more than 2200 psi and bottomhole pressure calculated at over 4300 psi. Once we complete our clean-out operations, we anticipate the well to be an excellent and very commercial oil and gas producer.

    The Foster #6 well was originally drilled to a depth of 6,250 feet in 1987, and perforated from 6170-6185 feet and 5785-5795 feet. The bottomhole pressures required very heavy mud to conatain the well during drilling, which created a restriction for the well to produce. The well was then abandoned with no potential test nor any completion. The Foster #6 sidewall cores indicate high permeable and porous sand in the 5785' Frio reservoir, as well as 40 degree gravity oil in the samples.

    Riverdale has a 25% carried working interest in the Foster #6 well. It also maintains 100% working interest on over 550 additional acres of productive and undrilled acreage under the Foster Lease.

  • Bravura Solutions Ltd. (BRVSY: Pink Quote) | Bravura Solutions demonstrates ViaNova capability through J.P. Morgan implementation
    London / Sydney, 11 March 2010 (ASX: BVA / OTCQX: BRVSY) – Bravura Solutions Limited (Bravura) - a leading global supplier of wealth management applications and professional services, has successfully completed the implementation of Babel, a straight through processing (STP) solution for J.P. Morgan Asset Management in the United Kingdom (UK).

    J.P. Morgan is a long-term Bravura client, having previously implemented the Rufus global transfer agency solution.  The most recent project employed Bravura’s Babel application to process trades for life funds in J.P. Morgan Asset Management’s Transfer Agency Operation.

    Bravura’s Babel is an intelligent STP financial messaging solution.  It automates external linkage to a variety of markets and counterparties, using almost any message medium or format.  Babel seamlessly adapts to any necessary business logic, directly or via the world’s major platforms and comprises an extensive set of modules that manage different messages and transactions, external connectivity to particular markets and platforms, as well as specific message protocols.

    Dan Watkins, Head of European Operations, J.P. Morgan Asset Management, said:  “We needed a STP solution for our Life Funds client which also supported the ISO 20022 ViaNova* message format.  Our long-standing partner, Bravura, had the products and capability to support complex asset management operations, making them the perfect fit for our requirements.

    “The implementation of Babel has extended our STP capacity in the UK and, importantly, supports ViaNova standard instructions.”

    Tony Klim, CEO EMEA, Bravura, said:  “This is a significant achievement for Bravura and J.P. Morgan.

    “It highlights our ability to provide STP solutions for our clients and enable them to introduce operational efficiencies and service improvement to their investors.  We are delighted to have worked so closely with J.P. Morgan and helped them to implement another UK STP capability.

    “We are also pleased that our widely used Babel product now supports ISO 20022 format trading, which is important in demonstrating Bravura’s ability to fully support our clients’ objectives in the transfer agency market.”

    Implementation of Babel at J.P. Morgan Asset Management was completed in 2009 when the company immediately began to receive ‘live’ trades.  All milestones were achieved on time and did not impact service to J.P. Morgan’s clients.

(“WaterFurnace”) that has expanded the Company’s exclusive region of distribution of WaterFurnace’s Geostar branded product.  Second, CleanEnergy has expanded its access to drilling equipment through a strategic arrangement with a leading geoexchange provider in Western Canada.  Third, CleanEnergy has obtained access to industry leading geoexchange equipment through which CleanEnergy has exclusive access for the majority of Canada for the production of ice for hockey or curling rinks.   Improving and expanding the product offering as well as operational execution capability are key milestones in achieving revenue growth in CleanEnergy. 

    The Company has executed an agreement with WaterFurnace that provides CleanEnergy exclusive distribution rights for the Geostar branded product in British Columbia, Northwest Territories, Yukon, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and the vast majority of Ontario.  The agreement provides CleanEnergy as the exclusive distributor of the GeoStar product line for heat pump systems suitable for residential homes and most types of commercial installations.   This new agreement provides a much broader product offering for CleanEnergy and also its approximately 55 dealers within these territories. 

    Mark Montemurro, President and CEO of Alter NRG states “We believe WaterFurnace is the leading brand of geoexchange product within North America and we are pleased to expand our geographic coverage with their product.  The GeoStar heat pumps are amongst the best in the market and will provide our dealer network, residential customers and commercial customers with a consistent high quality product across a broad geographic region.” 

    Tom Huntington, CEO of WaterFurnace confirmed “We are pleased to be working with Alter NRG to expand geoexchange sales throughout Canada.  Canada is a critical market for WaterFurnace and by making a commitment to accelerate the adoption and growth of geoexchange within Canada, Alter NRG will play a key role in WaterFurnace’s success in Canada.  We look forward to supporting them as a key distributor in the Canadian market” 

    CleanEnergy has also executed an exclusive agreement with Ice Kube Systems Ltd. (“Ice Kube”) which manufactures specialized low temperature geoexchange heat pumps.  The agreement provides exclusive distribution rights for hockey rinks, curling arenas, and leisure centres in British Columbia, Alberta, and Atlantic Canada and non-exclusive rights in Ontario.  Hockey rinks and leisure centres require a significant amount of energy for both heating and cooling and geoexchange removes the energy from the ices portion (providing cooling) and transfers it into the building to provide the heat.  This results in approximately 60% less energy consumption and related savings on energy costs and reduced carbon emissions.  Installing a geoexchange system into a single twin pad rink would also be equivalent to planting 130 acres of trees or permanently removing 125 cars from the road from an environmental perspective.  CleanEnergy has a list of customers which it is actively pursuing in this market segment with potential geoexchange revenues of $100,000 to $1,000,000 per project depending on size.

    CleanEnergy has expanded its operational capacity in Western Canada through a strategic agreement with Geowest Drilling Services Ltd. (“Geowest”), a drilling company located in Calgary, Alberta.  Under the agreement Geowest will provide dedicated service for CleanEnergy geoexchange projects using its drilling rig as well as drilling supervision.  This agreement expands the execution capability and ability to provide turnkey solutions in Western Canada which is an important part of the CleanEnergy growth strategy.  Currently, this equipment is being fully utilized on CleanEnergy geoexchange projects.

    Alter NRG acquired CleanEnergy on October 2, 2009 and believes that the Geoexchange market in Canada is poised for significant growth.  Geoexchange is the industry’s term to describe using heat from the ground to provide an environmentally friendly means for heating and air conditioning using renewable geothermal energy. Geoexchange systems have lower energy consumption compared to conventional building heating and cooling equipment, and adoption of this technology has experienced rapid market growth worldwide in recent years as consumers are able to reduce their cost of energy by up to 80%. According to industry analysts the primary barriers to significant growth are that the industry is highly fragmented and also lacks the capital and business expertise to support the market growth potential.  These strategic agreements illustrate Alter NRG’s commitment to provide the market leading product, supported by leading sales and distribution systems and strategic joint ventures to provide for leadership and growth in this fragmented market.

    Alter NRG, through CleanEnergy intends to provide turnkey geoexchange services in various markets throughout Canada.  Geoexchange is commonly used throughout the world with many Northern European countries with similar climates to Canada having penetration rates of over 20% and up to 80% for new homes as well as other commercial and government buildings.   CleanEnergy intends to continue to develop the industry leading turnkey solution by providing leading equipment and strengthened execution capability as illustrated by these strategic agreements.

    “We are confident that these recently signed agreements will help our Company meet its aggressive revenue growth targets in the coming years”, stated Mark Montemurro, President and CEO of Alter NRG.

    Going forward, a 2% market share of the new build market alone in Canada would result in over $100 million in potential revenues.  CleanEnergy intends to grow to this level of revenue over the next 3 to 5 years by having the industry leading product and execution capability and also through strategic alliances.  CleanEnergy is actively in negotiations with a variety of developers and utilities across Canada that are interested in a broad application of geoexchange services going forward to achieve increased market share.
