Comments: The Company is exploring for both alluvial and primary diamonds in the Bow River project area and the Lower Smoke Creek project area. These experts assessed up to 90 million tonnes of potentially diamondiferous alluvial gravels on Conquest's Bow River tenements. The Ellendale field comprises a line of diamondiferous lamproites along a NW-SE trending structural corridor. The Ellendale 17 pipe itself covers a surface area of 55 hectares and is one of the largest lamproite pipes in the Ellendale field. There is potential for up to 8-10 million tonnes of diamond-bearing tuffs and breccias.

Comments: Initial prospecting during 2002 and 2003 by Mr. Leadbetter consisted of following up on a previous alluvial diamond discovery near the town of Wawa in the early 1990’s. This was achieved by panning river sediment to recover diamonds and/or diamond indicator minerals and then attempting to trace the alluvial diamonds/indicator minerals back to their source rocks. The panning of river sediments by Mr. Leadbetter resulted in the discovery of two diamonds, a 1.09 and a 0.25 carat diamond, in the Magpie River, north of Wawa. Subsequent panning and prospecting by Mr. Leadbetter resulted in the recovery in December 2003, of a1.39 carat gem quality diamond from a tributary of the Magpie River in Chabanel Township.

Comments: I propose you the project of investments in the diamond exploitation in the area of Kasaï Occidental (Kananga) in Democratic Republic of Congo. Since 2002, the new mining code announces the principles of the freedom of access to the prospection and mining on all the extent of the Congolese territory. Originating in Western Kasaï, reside in France and I am in the search of investors. The project that I present to you summarily is localised on concessions identified. Existing licence of exploitation, without other step administrative. It is the work of the Office of consulting engineer of Kasaï at Kananga. Exploitation in alluvial layer (artisanal and semi-industrial). The licences are on bank of the Lulua and Luebo. Production considered: exploitation artisanal = +/- 500 carats year; exploitation mini-dredger (extraction day labourer of 100m3) = +/- 46.800 carats year. It should be noted that the content is a random variable which recommends much flexibility. Existence of the road infrastructure and existences of the means of the communications (cellular telephone and phone). Reserve total estimated on the basis of cartographic document of the Mining Union and Beceka Lulua (1929-1930): layer rivets Lulua = 1090443 carats. Mine inactive in the blocks in progress spite = 1229524 carats. Sasatshi layer in Kamuenga = 372998 carats. These layer are all of alluvial type made up in the funds of the valleys of deposits of the gravels in terrace and at the points of junction like in the river beds of deposits of the gravel pits in flats. I am in possession of all the data of the project and consequently in contact with the regional authorities which wishes to support any investment foreign. This is why, I would like you meet to explain you more in detail.

Comments: Objective: Exploitation of the bed of the river by the realization of a barrage or by using a dredge. Exploitation of the terraces. Description of the property: I have chosen this place, because the history of research and exploitation of the area showed that the loop of Likaya abounds in diamonds of jewelry quality. For the exploitation of this deposit, we had already tried during the research campaign of 1996 to deviate Mambéré by a barrage, but it was not successful. The surface of the mining title is of 98 km2, the loop itself measures 7 out of 1.5 to 3 km. Evaluated or potential resources: With regard to the bed of Mambéré, the content diamonds was estimated during the prospection campaign in the years 1970 by mining companies CMO, SCED, CAREMI as well as Chinese Mission in 1989 between 0.02 and 0.92 ct/m3. With regard to the terraces, same the campaigns gave contents of 1 ct/m3 on average. The terraces have a thickness up to approximately 3 m, at their base, below sterile, is the diamantiferous gravel a thickness of between 0.40 and 0.70 m.

Comments: Objective: industrial exploitation. Description of the property: the terrace has a surface of 25km x 20m and has a 15m depth. Diamantiferous gravel (thicknesses: 20 to 30cm on average, 80cm to the maximum according to wells of prospection) are at its base, i.e. below the water level of the ground water. To arrive at the gravel it is necessary to remove the 15m of sterile. Evaluated resources where potential: we started to work on this concession in 1995. In 1996, we exploited on this site 98,125 carats. It is of course very difficult to evaluate the real potentialities of the terrace.

Comments: The 701 Changma Diamond Mines: conversion and expansion of the existing mine in order to proceed to a production of 1,000 tons/day that could produce more than 285,000 carats/year. The current production of this mine is of 50,000 carats/year, it produced in 27 years of operation more than 1 million carats. The resources estimated (by survey) at 600 meters are approximately 3 million carats. The cost of this reconversion and expansion is estimated at 17 million US$, the annual profit would be then 21 million US$. The 702 Xiyu Diamond Deposit: phase I of the program consite has to set up a small installation of treatment which would produce 25,000 carats/year what would enable him to have the cashflow necessary to continue its work of surveys and evaluation of the resources of the aera. Phase II of the program envisages to install a treatment plant of a capacity of 7,700 tons/day that would produce 450,000 carats/year. The total cost of these operations is estimated at 66 million US$.

Comments: De Beers carried out grassroots prospecting in Angola between 1970 and 1975 in a joint venture (Condiama) with Diamang, and between 1978 and 1984 under a mining and technical agreement with the new Angolan Government. Prospecting agreements for three concession areas were awarded in 1996 to the De Beers-Endiama Association (a 50:50 joint venture). These are situated in the northeast (the Lundas), north central (Quela) and the southeast (Mavinga) of the country and cover 21,000 km2, 7,000 km2 and 33,000 km2 respectively. Exploration was suspended in May 2001 pending negotiations with the Angolan Ministry of Mines and Geology.
