spot the differance ? RNS 8 December 2011 when CNOCC were our partnersThe Joint Venture partners have been successful in their application to the Department of Manufacturing, Innovation, Trade, Resources and Energy for the approval of a PEPR, formerly called an Exploration Works Approval, which encompasses a detailed coal and hydro-geological drilling programme. The water permitting and work area clearance processes are already under way in the expectation that field work can commence in the first half of 2012. The programme and the resultant reports are anticipated to take approximately six months to complete. The drilling programme will focus on the EL 4512 (Wintinna) area, feeding further data into the mine design studies and coal conversion studies during the coming year and will include: · boreholes to further delineate mine design parameters and upgrade the geological model and JORC resource estimates;· bulk sampling of coal to finalise coal feedstock characteristics for coal conversion options (including gasification, coal drying, briquetting etc); · detailed hydro-geological testing to refine the model and lay the basis for the mine dewatering and groundwater management plan. The programme will cover up to 34 boreholes. The first six holes will be multi-purpose, for priority water testing and coal sample extraction, and then will be followed by 16 boreholes variously covering hydro-geological testing/observation, coal drilling and/or geotechnical assessment. The requirement for a further 12 boreholes will be assessed as the drilling programme proceeds. The cost of the drilling, as well as other elements of the 2012 work programme, is covered by CNOOC NEIA's funding commitment for the BFSTaken from same RNSMr. Liu Suli, Vice President of CNOOC-NEI, commented that: "The Arckaringa Project is a very important project for CNOOC-NEI. The company is committed to working closely with Altona and is giving high priority to the work needed to establish the feasibility of the Project". wish I had been there, sipping lemon tea in chinzy cups, interesting chat etc ?Very Nice

Surprised But Delighted Correction...I should have said Queensland and not S Australia....but I imagine the same issues would also apply in S Australia.

Surprised But Delighted After all the adverse publicity surrounding coal gasification in S Australia, I was fully expecting Altona to be a dead duck. I imagine the environmental issues must have been cleared up, otherwise the backers would surely have withdrawn by now. Staggered to see a 40% rise and hope this will hold up - there now seems to be a distinct possibility that this could become a viable investment...dare I say it, I could get my money back someday soon!

August visit regular 3 month visit and not a lot to report on Altona but big changes in China. Expect someone is working on the annual accounts thinking how to make it go two pages without pictures. Changed the flowers and swept up a bit...

Re: ANR Time for my quarterly visit to the graveyard to visit the very nearly dear departed Altona. Nothing has happened since my previous visit to this board so I changed the flowers, brushed off a few leaves and said a prayer for us shareholders. Back again in August.
