lag mal wieder falsch, Kanda hat im plus geschlossen. Ich tippe mal, erst wenn du wieder einsteigst, wird
der Kurs fallen.
Auszug aus dem Newsletter von Quantum:
Brazil's participation in the international niobium mining area is of about 96% of the world production. In Minas Gerais is concentrated about 91% of the total of the country, more specifically in Araxá, in the Upper Paranaíba, where the Brazilian Company for Mining and Metallurgy (CBMM) operates the largest of the three large mines in operation worldwide...
Iron-niobium may, for example, help to produce lighter cars, which consume less fuel. An average car weights between 800 and 1,000 kilos of steel. If about 100 and 150 kilos are removed from the cars, it will save one liter of gasoline for every 200 kilometers run. In large infrastructure works, it is possible to use stronger steel and to build a similar structure 60% lighter.
The demand is concentrated in industrialized and most technologically developed countries, where about 80 to 100 grams of this ore are used for each ton of steel. China still has a low rate of use of niobium to produce steel (25 grams per ton), although being already the second largest buyer of the product in the world.

und du, 12fly, hast angst das deine scheinchen demnächst nur noch die hälfte wert sind und du dich ärgerst, nicht rausgegangen zu sein. Die Gier ist doch das stärkste empfinden beim traden.
aber ein r¨¨uckfall von 50% waere schon ne Gemeinheit
meine Devise bei quantum alles oder nichts
ist ubrings meins staerkste Postion, ueber 0.32CAD baue ich meine 4 Position auf
werd in ein paar Jahren pensoniert, hoffe das quantum dann zweistellig ist
man sollte abschaetzen koennen was hier ueberwiegt, und fuer mich ein klarer Kauf
ist ja alles mein Geld und welches ich nicht dringend brauche
ich habe Zeit, viel Zeit

press release Feb. 2, 2012, 5:16 p.m. EST IAMGOLD declares rare earth inferred resource of 467 million tonnes at a grade of 1.65% TREO TORONTO, Feb. 2, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- All amounts are expressed in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated. TSX: IMG NYSE: IAG IAMGOLD Corporation ("IAMGOLD" or the "Company") today announced that it has declared an inferred resource of 466.8 million tonnes at a grade of 1.65% Total Rare Earth Oxides ("TREO") as a result of its 2011 exploration drilling program conducted on the rare earth elements ("REE") zone adjacent to its Niobec niobium mine near Saguenay, Quebec, Canada. Steve Letwin, President and CEO of IAMGOLD, stated, "I am so proud of our team of employees who have unlocked this valuable deposit of highly prized metals.They have successfully defined the scope and size of a resource that we only guessed at a year ago and is completely unvalued by investors. In terms of developing this resource and bringing it to market, we plan to take the same funding approach as with our self-funded Niobec business. We will explore alternative strategies for developing this resource, such as joint venture partnerships and strategic alliances, which will not impact our gold business. "While the scoping study will define the exact significance to the REE market, this deposit has the potential to place IAMGOLD among a select group of global REE suppliers to a market where applications for these metals are constantly evolving and expanding.Rare earths are integral to a wide range of fast growing industries and are difficult to substitute. China`s actions to restrict exports to protect supply for its domestic industry has led to a shortage of a number of REEs that are critical to some of the fastest growing markets, including the clean energy sector. Demand for REEs is growing at 9-15% a year, and according to a report by Ernst & Young -Technology Minerals - The rare earths race is on (April 2011), the market value is expected to double in size to a range of $4 billion to $6 billion by 2015."
von 0,20 euro. Bin auch mitte Dezember nicht rausgeganngen, da waren die Scheinchen weniger als die Hälfte wert.
War ursprünglich bei 0,38 euro eingestiegen und seitdem immer verbilligt.
Somit sehe ich also alles ganz cool und werde auch erst rausgehen, wenn ich hier einige 100 % plus habe, da
ich dann in Frührente gehen will.
ich wäre nicht hier wenn ich nicht denken würde das hier potential vor handen ist ;)
dachte halt, wie bei nahezu allen penny stocks, dass es nochmal nen sell off gibt bevor die rakete startet.
entweder rakete mit + 200 300 1000% oder halt hoch gedümpel und dann nach +50% wieder sell off.
schade, dieses mal nicht geklappt, aber in der tat i2fan, ich muss jetzt schau wie ich wieder rein komme :P
aber an der börse braucht man auch gedult
jedenfall noch reinkommen. Das wäre auch mein Durchschnittskurs und ist somit ok.
Was sind schon 0,20 euro wenn die irgendwann mal bei ner Megahype auf 2 Euro oder mehr stehen könnten ?
Bei diesen Werten ist alles möglich, das gute ist man kann nur 100 % verlieren, aber mehrere 100 % gewinnen.
D'as wollen wir doch hoffen

Mfg Norbert,immer schön langsam nach Norden, tippe 029--030 CAD dièse Woche
eine Bedrohung kommt noch von einer anderen Seite.
Da ein Invest in Kanada mit einer Investition in CAD einhergeht, ist das ganze natürlich Währungsrisiko bedroffen. Der Euro war vor kurzem auf einem Ultra low zum CAD und holt nun langsam auf. Wenn sich die ganze Sache um Griechenland legt, wird das wohl zu weiteren Impulsen führen, die zwangsläufig den EUR gegenüber dem CAD in die höhe treiben, was wiederum den Euo QRE Kurs drückt.

The United States Geological Survey (USGS) recently announced that it has granted more than $260,000 under the 2012 USGS Mineral Resources External Research Program (MRERP) for “new research on mineral resources important to [US] economy, national security, and land-use decisions.” The grant recipients will study rare earth, tellurium and niobium.
“The Mineral Research Grants help provide the basic research foundation to better develop our domestic resources and thus become less dependent on foreign imports,” said USGS Director Marcia McNutt.
The MRERP research grants follow the passing of the National Strategic and Critical Minerals Policy Act of 2011 which aims to improve American mineral policy in part by coordinating a government-wide survey of American mineral resources.
“Strategic and critical minerals are vital to our everyday lives . . . It is imperative that we identify the roadblocks to meeting our national minerals needs so that we can become less dependent on foreign supplies, increase our national security, and create more American jobs by securing our manufacturing industry and revitalizing our economy,” said Natural Resources Committee Chairman Doc Hastings (R-WA) following congressional approval of the Act.
One of the research projects granted funding is a collaborative study by the University of Colorado and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln which will examine the rare earths and niobium resources of the Elk Creek deposit in southeastern Nebraska. The deposit is found in a rare carbonate-rich igneous rock (carbonatite) and “may comprise the largest niobium resource in the United States.”
Niobium: Strategic Metal for Western Industry and Defense
Also included on the European Commission’s list of 14 critical metals and among the British Geological Society’s (BGS) top 10 essential elements, niobium is considered a strategic metal by the US government as its primary uses are in the production of materials needed for critical industries including automotive, nuclear, defense, oil & gas and electronics. Its use as a superalloy in the production of high performance aircraft makes it strategically important to the US military.
In late 2010, Wikileaks posted a list of global metals mines and facilities that the US Department of Homeland Security considers so vital to US interests that they should be included under the National Infrastructure Protection Plan. The list included niobium resources in Brazil, the United States’ main source of supply.
For now, the US does not have a niobium mining industry and must rely solely on foreign imports of the metal, namely from Brazil and Canada.
As of 2011, BGS estimates put global niobium ore reserves (proved and probable) at around 485 million tonnes with more than 93 percent occurring in Brazil and 7 percent in Canada. Global production nearly mirrors reserves with Brazil responsible for approximately 95 percent with Canada picking up the remainder.
In 2009, the US acquired 69 percent of its ferro-niobium, 91 percent of its niobium metal and 86 percent of its niobium oxide from Brazil, the vast majority of which comes from the world’s largest niobium producer, Companhia Brasileira de Metalurgia e Mineração (CBMM). The company owns the Araxá pyrochlore deposit, which is responsible for nearly 70 percent of global niobium supply.
China’s tightening grip on global resources
Who else relies heavily on Brazilian niobium production? China. The world’s leading stainless steel producer and a major producer of alloy steels, it is not surprisingly that China has the world’s largest and fastest growing market for niobium, representing 25 percent of total consumption in 2010.
According to BGS, primary global reserves and resources of niobium are enough “to meet global demand for the foreseeable future.” However, that future would have to take place in a world where all nations share equal access to global natural resources; and if the chronicles of human history are any indication sharing resources is something few nations are willing to do.
China has earned itself a world-renowned reputation for bogarting resources; so much so that the US and European Union brought monopoly charges against China before the World Trade Organization which ruled in July of 2011 that the Asian nation was in fact purposefully restraining trade by restricting the global supplies of several key minerals of which it is the major supplier.
China’s strategies in its quest to dominate the global resource market also include buying up or taking significant positions in mining projects around the world. In September of last year, a Chinese consortium comprised of steel producers Baosteel Group Corp., Shougang Corp., Anshan Iron & Steel Group Corp. and Taiyuan Iron & Steel Group Co along with China’s CITIC bank purchased a 15 percent share in CBMM.
The purchase came on the heels of another 15 percent buy-in from a Japanese-Korean consortium in March of 2011.
The CBMM purchase has strategic importance for these Asian nations as it cements supply lines for niobium; but it spells further trouble for the U.S.which depends upon Brazil for nearly all of its niobium supplies. The only other major niobium producer and the sole publicly-owned niobium miner in Brazil’s Anglo American (LSE:AAL) which in 2010 had a 8 percent share in the global niobium market.
As China’s demand for niobium increases, its position in CBMM may as well, putting further pressure on US supply.
Alternatives to Brazil closer to home
America’s alternatives to Brazil include Canada—home to the world’s third major niobium deposit, the Niobec mine in Quebec, owned by IAMGOLD (TSX:IMG,NYSE:IAG) which also has a 8 percent share in the global niobium market. A few exploration stage projects are underway including the Thor Lake deposits, a rare earths, tantalum and niobium deposit, owned by Avalon Rare Metals (TSX:AVL,NYSEAMEX:AVL) and the Upper Fir tantalum-niobium deposit owned by Commerce Resources Corp. (TSXV:CCE).
The US’ other alternative to Brazil is to encourage the development of niobium resources within its own borders; hence the USGS-funded research study on the Elk Creek deposit. Previously explored by Molycorp (NYSE:MCP) in the 1970s and 1980s, the property is now in the hands of Quantam Rare Earth Developments Corp. (TSXV:QRE) which has established an NI 43-101 compliant inferred resource of 80 million tons of 0.62% niobium.
“It’s an honor for Elk Creek to have been selected as the subject of one of five research grants from USGS under the 2012 USGS Mineral Resources External Research Program,” said Quantum CEO Peter Dickie.
According to a recent press release, Quantum is currently performing metallurgical testing on the site. An updated resource calculation is expected to be completed during Q1 2012 which will become part of a Preliminary Economic Assessment expected to be completed by the second half of this year.

Mfg Norbert,
wann soll denn nun endlich die heiß ersehnte Ressourcen Kalkulation veröffentlicht werden?
ich hatte nur etwas von Q1 2012 gelesen aber genaueres bis jetzt nicht.
eine andere aussage hatte ich von dir nicht erwartet i2fan, wo wohnst du? lass mal bier trinken gehen ;)
