Chief executive Bill Howe said 2010 will be "a watershed year for the company", with negotiations for implementation of the first Multiphase Superfine Atomised Residue (MSAR) project at Mazeikiai in Lithuania."Despite delays arising from energy price volatility and the current economic climate, we hope for a positive outcome on this matter during the first half of 2010," Howe said.African Aura, the miner focused on sub-Saharan Africa, says its Putu iron ore project in Liberia has an Independent Mineral Resource of 1.08 billion tonnes of iron ore at 37.6% total iron.Its 61.5% project partner Severstal Resources is investing $30m and working with the company towards a pre-feasibility study during 2010.A separate statement said the firm's main shareholder and director Guy Pas bought 50,000 shares, increasing his stake to 9.57%.

Avanti Communications announced a contract win and major strategic partnership with Hughes Network Systems. The group said Hughes purchased capacity and managed services using Avanti's Virtual Network Operator service on HYLAS over a ten year period to an initial value of £7.5m in order to continue to grow its own established European networks business with clients in sectors such as oil and gas and lotteries.Superconductor energy technology company Zenergy has received a further order for a Magnetic Billet Heater (MBH) from a major industrial producer of metal goods.
