Summary of the year
At Marshall Lake in January the December 2006 Gazooma find was confirmed with
a series of follow up drill holes all of which ran copper and zinc over
significant lengths including one which yielded 2.05 % copper over 26.90m
nearby.
In February we reported further drilling on the Main Billiton zone three
kilometres from Gazooma to the north east with results over 9.2 metres of
2.02% Zinc, 0.45% Copper. These results confirmed our expectations and give
support to the historical drill reports dating from the 1960s and 70s.
During April we reported finding 0.71% copper over 31.9 metres, from 40.7
metres to 72.6 metres depth, in an area 700 metres to the north of original
Gazooma discovery where no previous mineralisation had been identified. This
new discovery at North Gazooma opens the possibility that Gazooma may be part
of a much larger complex.
South Billiton was our first deeper drill target directly three kilometres
east of Gazooma where we discovered a brand new 15 metre wide copper zinc
mineralized zone. The target was selected using airborne geophysics and opens
up the possibility of multiple mineralized levels at the Marshall Lake camp.
Additionally this area may be linked to the Main Billiton zone 600 metres to
the north as well as another zone 300 metres to the south east.
Later in the year in a follow up drill program at Gazooma we identified
mineralization running 4.5% copper over 6.7m as part of a larger sequence
which ran 2.5% copper over a total of 14.8m.
Financing and other assets
During the year the company raised GBP136,000 in January at 20p a share and
then later in December GBP300,000 at 50p.
Our portfolio of equities has been impacted along with the rest of the market
and therefore its value has been adjusted accordingly. After recognizing this
year's realised profits on investments, the subsequent net loss was GBP
64,617.
Our GBP 206,000 fixed asset holding in Xtract Energy is valued at cost as in
previous years. The directors do not feel that any provision is required in
respect of this valuation at the present time.
Post balance sheet events
Drilling is underway at the present time and we expect to report to
shareholders of the progress at the forth coming annual meeting.
Change of name to Marshall Lake Mining plc
The directors intend to put a motion to the members that the company changes
its name to Marshall Lake Mining plc to better reflect the ongoing activities
of the company. To this end the company has launched its website at
www.mlmining.co.uk.
Annual and extraordinary general meetings
These will take place in July and shareholders will be notified in June, when
the accounts will be posted.
Yours sincerely
