- Sydney Mining Club - 12.30 pm - Tattersalls Club

Noble Group front man and Territory Resources Chairman

The boom rolls on in 2008! And getting mining's big machines moving is Michael Kiernan's gig. In 2007 he fast tracked Territory Resources into iron production and blew the mothballs of the Windimurra vanadium project. He fuelled this action with Crawley Investment's long-term 30:70 arrangement with Hong Kong's Noble Group, where the capital pool is deep. OK, so Cons Min got away but he now appears on the board of seven strong juniors including Monarch Gold, Mineral Resources, Matilda Minerals, India Resources, Peel Exploration, Windimurra Vanadium and Olympia Resources.

Territory Resources will be central in Kiernan's Sydney Mining Club address but life, the mining boom and the universe will all catch a spray. His presentation will outline his strategy to develop Territory Resources into a diversified mining house and supplier of carbon steel materials - a 'mini BHP'. Territory shipped its first shipment of high grade iron ore to China in 2007 and Kiernan has since been working his logistics magic with a mining, railing and shipping program from its NT Frances Creek project.

Territory's partnership with the Noble Group marketing expertise gives it direct market access to Chinese steel mills. Testimony to Kiernan's energy is the fact that last year he pushed all of these interests ahead while simultaneously competing to takeover his old home Consolidated Minerals. How far can he go in 2008 without such distractions? Every mining observer needs to be up to date with the Michael Kiernan multi-commodity 2008 action. Oh yes - and be sure it will be entertaining. Remember to book at least three days ahead of the event.

1 May , 2008. 122nd Sydney Mining Club

NewCrest MD Ian Smith

Over the Hedge
A Debt-Free Newcrest Works its Pipeline

With its rights issue behind it, hedges and debts closed out and a spiking gold price - Newcrest is now ready to surf an attractive project pipeline. This month Ian Smith MD of Australia's biggest independent gold/copper producer will present Newcrest's uncluttered new outlook where the emphasis sits squarely on the project pipeline of six operating mines and four significant developments. Year on year gold production jumped 18% in the last year. With rain falling around Cadia again, the outlook for this low cost, 30 year flagship continues to grow. New structures at Gosowong are continuing resource growth pushing the Newcrest brag sheet for resource growth through the 100 million ounces of gold equivalent mark in the period since 1992. Similar Newcrest says to the unmerged interests of Barrick and Placer for the period. It's $85m exploration budget is slowly globalising with 8 projects in Nevada, 5 in Peru and one in Indonesia. Fiji's Namosi porphyry deposit is being drilled down to 1,000m to assess the deeper picture.

Career big company man, Ian Smith joined Newcrest in July 2006 following a rapid succession through the chair and as he approaches his second anniversary has steadied and tidied it (despite a nasty slashing of the reserves at Telfer last year). Please remember to book early. Any bookings received after 2pm on the Monday prior to the lunch cannot be guaranteed a seat and a late booking fee of $10 per person may be charged after that time.
