  3. Up 15% today... very nice Chinese must be fighting the Japanese for lithium and rare metals!
  4. big volume today, must be in anticipation of exploratin programs to start after financing is closed??
  5. TNR gets major investors in - Major Chinese Miner group!!!! TNR Gold secures Canada Zinc investment in financing 2009-07-06 18:39 ET - News Release Also News Release (C-CZX) Canada Zinc Metals Corp Mr. Gary Schellenberg of TNR reports TNR GOLD ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC INVESTMENT BY CANADA ZINC METALS WITH PARTICIPATION IN $1 MILLION PRIVATE PLACEMENT TNR Gold Corp. and Canada Zinc Metals Corp. confirm a strategic initial investment by Canada Zinc Metals in TNR as part of a private placement for up to five million units, priced at 20 cents per unit, to raise up to $1-million. Each unit consists of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share of the company at a price of 30 cents for a period of 12 months from the date of closing. Canada Zinc Metals is focused primarily on developing its flagship Akie property, a significant zinc-lead deposit in northeastern British Columbia, Canada, containing a National Instrument 43-101-compliant inferred resource of 23.6 million tonnes grading 7.6 per cent zinc, 1.5 per cent lead and 13.0 grams per tonne silver. As evidence of the quality of the properties owned by Canada Zinc Metals, a large Chinese mining group, Tongling Nonferrous Metals Group Holdings Co. Ltd., has recently invested $4.9-million in Canada Zinc Metals for a 13-per-cent equity position. Tongling, a state-owned enterprise based in Anhui province, is one of China's largest copper smelting companies and ranked in the top 100 large-scale industry enterprises in China. Tongling's principal activities are exploration, mining, ore processing, smelting and refining, and products processing of copper, lead, zinc, gold, silver, and other non-ferrous and rare metals. China has over half of the world's deposits of rare earths, over 80 per cent of worldwide production, and has recently shown significant interest in becoming majority shareholder of various rare earth miners such as Lynus Corp. and Arafura Resources. TNR's non-executive chairman, Kirill Klip, will be taking a significant portion of the financing along with other insiders and management. TNR president and executive chairman, Gary Schellenberg, states: "We are encouraged by the support in this current financing by insiders, management, and welcome the strategic investment from Canada Zinc Metals and all its stakeholders. It is clear that our recent aggressive acquisition plan of lithium and rare metal properties around the world, along with continuing developments on our copper-gold properties in Argentina, is attracting significant attention in the mining and investment world." Peeyush Varshney, chairman and chief executive officer of Canada Zinc Metals, commented: "This strategic investment into TNR and its proposed spinoff subsidiary, International Lithium Corp., will give our shareholders diversification into the growing opportunities that rare metal industries are offering. Furthermore, the investment gives us an interest in TNR's stake in the significant Los Azules copper project in Argentina." A finder's fee of 7 per cent on a portion of the proceeds raised is payable in cash, in units, or a combination of both, at the election of the finder. Any units issued in lieu of cash will be on the same terms as the units of the offering. All securities issued pursuant to this financing are subject to a four-month hold period from the date of closing. The offering is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval and any regulatory approvals. Proceeds of the private placement will be used to finance the evaluation of TNR's lithium and rare metal properties, implement the proposed spinoff of International Lithium, and for general corporate purposes. We seek Safe Harbor.
  6. TNR up to $0.28 earlier Media around teh net for these high flyers taken from corpo media page (http://www.tnrgoldcorp.com/s/AboutLithium.asp) Clif Droke - Analyst for Momentum Strategies Interview May 10, 2009 http://www.tnrgoldcorp.com/i/pdf/TNR-Interview-ClifDroke.pdf Vancouver Sun Article - TNR Gold Corp (International Lithium Spin-off) June 4, 2009 http://www.vancouversun.com/Business/Tradi...3973/story.html The Wall Street Transcript - TNR Gold Corp Interview June 5, 2009 http://www.internationallithium.com/Z-files/TNR-TWST2009.pdf James West Features TNR Gold Corp / International Lithium Story June 9, 2009 http://www.midasletter.com/news/09060906_T...um-projects.php Resource World - Lithium Exploration June 9, 2009 http://www.internationallithium.com/Z-file...Jun-Lithium.pdf
  7. Those who listened now has 200% gain on their hands = TNR was trading at $0.25 yesterday You can thannk me later Word's getting out - Northern Miner features TNR ________ http://www.northernminer.com/issues/Printe...;issue=02112009 TNR Gold Spinoff Focuses On Lithium, Rare Earth Elements After scooping up some lithium and rare metals projects in Ontario and Nevada recently, TNR Gold (TNR-V, TRRXF-O) is spinning out its newfound assets into a subsidiary company to be called International Lithium. TNR president and CEO Gary Schellenberg says the subsidiary will be marketed as a focused and dominant player in the lithium and rare metals business. The company sees a growing market for rare earths and lithium, needed for high-powered portable devices like cell phones and laptops, hybrid cars and lithium batteries, which are thought of as green products. "We believe it will provide the necessary visibility and efficiency that potential joint-venture partners are looking for," Schellenberg said in a statement. TNR says it will distribute up to 75% of the securities of International Lithium to TNR shareholders. TNR will also apply to have the new company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange. As proposed, current TNR shareholders will be entitled to receive one share and one full tradable warrant of International Lithium for every four shares held of TNR. Warrants will be exercisable at a price equal to a 50% premium to the company's listing price for a two-year period. The spinoff plan is subject to approval of two-thirds of the company's shareholders. In March, TNR staked the Forgan Lake and Niemi properties near Thunder Bay, Ont. Forgan Lake was explored for lithium and rare earths in the 1950s. There are four pegmatites there, known as Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 4. Pegmatite is a coarse-grained igneous rock that can host economic amounts of lithium among rare metals. Niemi is located about 27 km southeast of Forgan Lake. Drilling in the 1950s traced pegmatite for 128 metres and historic drilling has shown grades of lithium. In April, TNR acquired another lithium property but this time in Nevada, just 34 km from Chemetall- Foote's Silver Peak mine, which is the only lithium brine producer in North America. The company has staked the Fish Lake Valley property, which has geological features similar to those that have acted as a trap for lithium brines in Clayton Valley. Fish Lake Valley was drilled by the U. S. Geological Survey in 1979 as a part of a lithium study. It was determined that the level of lithium in the water there was similar to that in Clayton Valley. TNR's gold projects are located in Argentina and Alaska. The company's primary focus is Argentina, where it's developing three projects: Eureka, El Salto and El Tapau.
  8. THIS thing has gone up 400% this week!!! Jim Dines and John Kaiser apparently tout rare metals as the next uranium...
  9. This jumped again last week... $.12 now Good deal for those interested in gold/copper + lithium. FOUR for ONE share in new company they're spinning off... International Lithium.
  10. For those still following this hugely undervalue company - check www.sedar.com for Minera Ande's latest technical report (43-101 compliant) reporting Los Azules copper Remeber 25% back-in and the Escorpio IV belongs to TNR... Net Asset Value (NAV) reported by Canaccord is $360 million, 25% of that is definitely more than the cufrrent TNR market cap of $6 paltry million dollars!!
  11. TNR Gold stakes Forgan Lake, Niemi properties 2009-03-18 11:17 ET - News Release Mr. Gary Schellenberg reports TNR ACQUIRES CANADIAN LITHIUM PROJECTS TNR Gold Corp. has acquired by staking of the Forgan Lake and Niemi properties in the province of Ontario, which host lithium and rare earth elements (REE). "Given the rapid penetration of high-powered portable devices, efficient hybrid motor vehicles, and the increasing prominence of lithium ion batteries as green energy alternatives in our daily lives, lithium is emerging as the highly sought-after commodity of the 21st century." President Gary Schellenberg adds: "We are pleased to add these properties in order to diversify the TNR portfolio as it aligns with our philosophy to be at the forefront of developing resources for the incoming demand of sustainable energy solutions. These acquisitions are the first of many progressive steps in establishing ourselves as a prominent lithium and REE explorer." Forgan Lake project The Forgan Lake project consists of 16 contiguous claims located east of Forgan Lake within the Thunder Bay district of Ontario. The project area, which hosts four previously drilled spodumene-bearing pegmatites, is part of the Georgia Lake pegmatite field, an area of considerable lithium and REE exploration since its discovery in the mid-1950s. The four pegmatites, known as the No. 1, No. 2, No. 3 and No. 4, were part of a drilling campaign carried out in 1955 by Lun-Echo Gold Mines Limited. Of the 39 diamond drill holes, 33 holes were drilled on TNR's Forgan Lake property. Pegmatite is a coarse-grained igneous rock that can potentially host economic amounts of lithium amongst valuable REE such as tantalum, beryllium, niobium and more. The No. 1 pegmatite has been traced on surface for about 274.3 metres at an average width of 9.1 m. It contains 30 per cent medium- to coarse-grained spodumene and sporadic black columbite ((Fe, Mn)2(Nb,Ta)2O6) crystals up to 3.8 centimetres long. Channel samples to note include: three samples averaging 2.57 per cent Li2O over 6.4 m width; two samples, 24.4 m southwest of the first three, averaged 4.23 per cent Li2O over 7.5 m width; and two samples 68.6 m farther southwest averaging 1.98 per cent Li2O over 7.6 m width. The No. 2 pegmatite, which is similar in composition to No. 1, has been traced in outcrop for 45.7 m with an exposed width of 13.7 m. The No. 3 pegmatite, located northwest of the No. 1 pegmatite, has been traced from Lucky Lake, a small body of water in the northeastern corner of the property, to southwest for 320.0 m with an averaged exposed width of 6.1 m. The No. 3 pegmatite contains approximately 25 per cent spodumene. Lun-Echo explored this pegmatite with 10 diamond holes, totalling 832.1 m, at intervals of 30.5 to 61.0 m. The best intersection contained a 1.52 m section averaging 1.78 per cent Li2O. The No. 4 pegmatite has been traced on surface for approximately 243.8 m with an average surface width of 4.6 m. The pegmatite contains 10 to 15 per cent fine- to medium-grained spodumene. In addition to historic drill confirmations, all identified pegmatites have not been delineated at Forgan Lake and thus the full extents of the deposits remain open. Furthermore, the potential for other REE anomalies remains promising, as historic work by Lun-Echo Gold Mines Ltd. analyzed drill core exclusively for Li2O. Columbite has been noted in at least two of the four pegmatites on the Forgan Lake property is further indication that an assessment of REE occurrences could also significantly increase the value of the Forgan Lake property. Niemi lithium project The Niemi lithium property consists of four contiguous claims located 27 kilometres southeast of the Forgan Lake property. Drilling and surface mapping in the 1950s by Lun-Echo Gold Mines Ltd. traced the pegmatite for a length of 128 m striking parallel to the metasediments. The pegmatite was estimated to be up to 9.3 m thick and 30.5 m wide. In 1955, Lun-Echo Gold Mines investigated the property with a 35 vertical X-ray diamond drill hole program totalling 405.4 m. The drilling results include 1.02 per cent and 2.0 per cent Li2O over 4.72 m and 1.52 m, respectively. As on the Forgan Lake property, Lun-Echo analyzed only for Li2O hence leaving tremendous discovery potential for REE. The Georgia Lake pegmatite field is approximately 32 kilometres by 105 km, hosting over 38 known REE occurrences and 10 known spodumene pegmatite deposits. There are other very significant spodumene-bearing pegmatite deposits, such as Georgia Lake, Point, Jackpot and Salo, which occur within three km of the Niemi occurrence. "We are encouraged that the lithium content from the historic sampling programs on our newly acquired projects are in line with other Canadian deposits, such as the Nama Creek around Georgia Lake, Ont., with 3.9 million tonnes grading at 1.06 per cent Li2O and the Preissac-Lacorne in Quebec with 19 million tonnes grading at 1.25 per cent Li2O (Sinclair, 2001)," commented Mr. Schellenberg. "By focusing on all economic rare earth commodities within the pegmatite instead of just lithium, we believe the Niemi lithium deposit holds tremendous potential."

  12. Los Azules updated with 43-101 resource of 11.2 billion lbs and prelimenary assessment - 23.6 years mine life - $0.85/lb copper production costs etc etc Going to be interesting this little junior Xstrata has 90 days to back in --- if they don't TNR will be working with Mr Goldcorp Rob Mcewan?!!
  13. Holy cow! 23+ years mine life copper, at $0.85/lb cost!
  14. CANACCORD initiates coverage on Los Azules... http://mining101.blogspot.com Also mentions Northern Dynasty and Pebble deposit, coincidentally part of TNR's portfolio as well. I like the San Jose cash flow and Los Azules metals in the ground estimate, should put MAI at $2+ easily and TNR at $0.75+. Thoughts?
  15. Ahh the poorman's gold Great buy - look for the disparity between comex and real world bullion differences... youd be surprise Eric Sprott's Asset Mgmt team - John Embry strategist says defaults from mark to market acct in Dec/31 could have a huge impact on silver prices http://mining101.blogspot.com
  16.

  17. I like this site for simplicity and updated source of macro/readings http://mining101.blogspot.com
  18. TNR up 40% today on big crosses from UBS... good to see some bids back... spread is a ridiculous $0.10 - $0.19... sounds like RAB Capital liquidating some more
  19. http://mining101.blogspot.com Los Azules property mentioned on MineSite writeup: Minera Andes also has an option to earn a 100 per cent interest in the Los Azules copper project in San Juan province near the Chilean border, currently owned by Xstrata Copper. This looks like a big one, though whether it will be big enough to persuade Xstrata to exercise its buy-back clause is not yet known. If Xstrata did exercise that clause it would mean that Xstrata would be satisfied that any mine there could produce 100,000 tonnes of copper a year for 10 years which is a big ask. As it is, Minera Andes is carrying out a scoping study and economic analysis and much more will be known once the results of this study are published before the year end. In the meantime the company has recently announced an initial inferred resource estimate for the project at a 0.35% copper cut-off, amounting to 922 million tonnes at 0.55% copper giving 11.2 billion pounds of copper, which is a good start. What is even more important is that there is a near surface high grade copper core which was first identified back in 2006. This could boost the economics of a starter pit which would mean that production could start earlier than anticipated. Anyway, Los Azules already qualifies as one of the largest new undeveloped copper deposits in Argentina and this may be why a galaxy of stars joined the board recently, including Rod McEwen of Goldcorp fame who has a holding in Minera Andes amounting to 38 per cent. He has brought with him Victor Lazarovici, who has had a career as a base metals and minerals analyst with leading firms in New York, and Don Quick who was a director of Goldcorp and instrumental in its biggest deals. With people like this on board, it will be no surprise if Minera Andes comes up with some interesting deals, and opportunities should certainly abound in the coming months. http://www.minesite.com/nc/minews/singlene...lid-base/1.html
  20. Interesting day to say the least, gold's up nicely while copper drops 10%... great entry point if you're not afraid of RAB Capital dumping some further shares...?
  21. Bids are thinning out, great time to get in today, I can't believe this is going for $0.205... must be RAB selling tons since thy're in trouble...
  22. up to $0.25 todady on good volume, those of you who didn't pick up at $0.20 wait for a pullback and get in!! http://www.tnrgoldcorp.com
  23. 2008-09-22 17:57 ET - News Release Mr. Gary Schellenberg reports TNR GOLD DRILLS 82.25 METRES OF 0.49% COPPER AT EL TAPAU TNR Gold Corp. has released preliminary copper results from the first hole of a seven-hole diamond drilling program at the El Tapau project in Argentina. Interpretation and analysis of precious metals and other elements are pending. Drill hole ET-08-01 was angled at 060/60 degrees and drilled to a depth of 440.40 metres. Drill hole ET-08-01 was collared proximal to a tourmaline breccia hosted within granodiorite intrusion. It intersected variably mineralized (pyrite chalcopyrite) both breccia and tourmalinized granodiorite host. The best mineralized intercept has returned the results in the table. Hole depth From To Length Copper (metre) (metre) (metre) (metre) (%) 440.4 97.25 179.50 82.25 0.49 Including 98.40 171.20 72.80 0.54 And 111.30 144.95 33.65 0.87 The entire core for hole ET-08-01 was sampled and cut in half with a diamond saw which was then processed, analyzed and reported from an ISO-9001 fully accredited analytical facility, Alexis Stewart Assayers, in Mendoza, Argentina. TNR is encouraged with the initial results obtained from this hole with the best copper grades coming from what appears to be a zone of enrichment. Gary Schellenberg, chief executive officer and president of TNR, said: "The presence of native copper and chalcocite mineralization in our first hole is very encouraging. Given these new results, we will reinterpret our geophysics and complete detailed mapping over the area to pinpoint the location of additional drill holes." Ike Osmani, PGeo, chief geologist of TNR, is the designated qualified person for the El Tapau project, and has prepared and approved the technical information contained in this news release. El Tapau The El Tapau copper-gold property, occurring within the eastern Andes of the San Juan province, is strategically located approximately 50 kilometres north-northwest of TNR's El Salto property. El Tapau has had historical gold and copper production from numerous underground workings. However, complete records do not exist regarding quantities and grades. In 2007, a 3-D induced polarization survey and limited mapping and lithogeochemical sampling were conducted in selected areas of the property. A second phase of the geological survey, consisting of mapping and sampling programs, was initiated in early 2008. Systemic bedrock sampling by Petra Gold in 2006 outlined a 2,500-metre-by-1,000-metre area with values ranging from trace to 19 grams per tonne gold, averaging 2.2 g/t gold from 157 rock sample sites. The current drill program is testing several main targets including the gold vein area in the west-central portion of the property and the porphyry copper-gold targets in the northeastern corner, of which assays results are pending.
  24. Almost a million shares traded (crossed?!) and SP is staying at $0.20 when a day gold moved up $80+ an ounce!! Jr's time is soon if the majors take off from here!!!! KGC Barrick Goldcorp all up 10-15% ,,,, timefor junior's turn... I'd get in before this!!
