Elixir Energy identifies significant gas resource at Daydream 2

ELIXIR ENERGY LIMITED

Elixir Energy Ltd (ASX:EXR OTC:ELXPF) managing director Neil Young sits down with Jonathan Jackson in the Proactive studio to discuss the identification of a significant gas resource at Daydream 2, part of its Grandis Gas Project in Queensland. The company has completed desorption analysis on coal cuttings, with samples used to analyse the gas content of the hydrocarbons using traditional coal bed methane methods. The company revealed a new prospective source of gas, having been adsorbed into the coals, averaging about 23 cubic metres per tonne in their raw state, which translates to 34 cubic metres per tonne minus dry ash. It also re-assessed its prospective resource to include the adsorbed gas element, increasing the total un-risked prospective resources (2U) in ATP 2044 to 3.6 trillion cubic feet of gas. The company is now working to convert the resources into discovered contingent resources, with plenty of newsflow expected over the coming weeks. “We are naturally pleased to announce this very substantial increase in our already very large prospective resources in the coals in ATP 2044," Young said. "To our knowledge, conducting coal content analysis on deep formations in this fashion was a first in Australia and, as such, is a tribute to the innovative mind set of our internal team and supportive service providers."

Cooper Metals confirms depth potential at Brumby Ridge ahead of drilling

COOPER METALS LIMITED

Cooper Metals Ltd (ASX:CPM) CEO Ian Warland joins Proactive’s Jonathan Jackson to discuss how a pole-dipole (PDP) induced polarisation (IP) survey has confirmed the strong depth potential of the chargeability anomaly at its Brumby Ridge Prospect within the Mt Isa East Copper-Gold Project. Warland talks through the IP survey, what the upcoming drilling program at Brumby Ridge will look like and the recent, very well supported, $3.5 million capital raise that fully funds the drilling. Finally, Warland gives us an overview of the work to come across Mt Isa. Warland said: “We are ready to recommence drilling soon at Brumby Ridge. It’s highly encouraging to see the strong chargeability response from the first line of IP indicating the mineralisation is wide, steeply dipping and extends at depth. This corroborates what we have learnt from our earlier drilling and surface results." Contact Details Proactive Investors Jonathan Jackson +61 413 713 744 jonathan@proactiveinvestors.com
