Obtala Resources plc (AIM:OBT), the UK resources investment and development company, has provided an update on its alluvial diamond mining operation at Konoma, Sierra Leone. The mining licences are held by the 100% owned Obtala subsidiary, Sierra Leone Hard Rock Limited (SLHR). Since acquiring SLHR in January 2010, Obtala has re-started the Dense Medium Separation (“DMS”) plant, and is continuing with the optimisation process, while additional spares and components are on order. During this phase the DMS plant has recovered 1,000.54 carats from 1,540 stones contained in 19,800 cubic meters of diamond bearing gravels and this includes an 11.34 carat stone. Diamonds recovered from the gravels treated during the optimisation process are reported at over 95% gem quality. Frank Scolaro, Chairman of Obtala, commented: “I am very pleased with the progress being made by our team on the mine site over the last month. We were fully aware when starting-up that it takes time to revive the operation, which had been sitting on care-and-maintenance since 2008. We have fully staffed the operation and intend to ensure that operating costs are kept to a minimum. We are currently operating at less than 40% capacity but will continue to ramp up production levels over the coming months. The volume of stones recovered against a low level of gravel feed is an achievement highlighting the strong upside growth potential of the project. In addition to our own operation we have worked at building relationships with the local community and I am delighted that the Community Mining Scheme has started.”

Glad to hear your holding up nicely,i am just watching the carnage at the moment sometimes its good to be a voyeur LOL ;-)

Maybe we should give hallmark a new nickname ,how about "Clinton The Card " ??? still like Wooly ;-)

You are talking to Mr Disciplined here now LOL,thanks for the confidence i will keep an eye on this one ,just prefer to hold some cash at the moment,MONI MML and CSN,OBT KDD,ITL,KEA.CW all holding strong so not getting battered like some poor buggers !!! :-)

You must be joking i aint buying anything else till next week at the earliest this market turmoil is too volatile !! What seems like a bargain today could be an even bigger one next week ??? Seriously i think i need to hold a good bit of cash at the moment ,my PF is holding up well atm but you never know,good luck anyway to you guys ,sector ;-)

There are some right rampers on here LOL,afternoon boys :-)

Thanks Owl,more good news for the mighty Portrait,i do like a company that makes money,wait till we get the end of year figures in a couple of months they will be above expectations,only one way this little baby is going,up up up ;-)

The only i see with you is non sense :-) KEA KEA KEA LOL LOL

Bell end supreme of the LSE,best ignore him he does not make any sense,btw good call of yours on KEA thought you said it was going down LOL LOL...................................

If you are into a gold play boys then have a look at MML,mountains of cash in the bank ,a really solid gold miner,your money will be safe in there ,sector ;-)

Too many questions for this time of night need my beauty sleep ,nite all, sector, have a good un tomorrow ;-)

Un fortunately printing more and more money does not solve the problem,its just like putting a plaster on a six inch deep cut !! The most worrying thing i have heard recently is George Soros indicating that the next UK govt might have to devalue the pound to help our economy,well that will make us all instantly poorer in the long run,we do not need to go anywhere near the eoro at present,but isnt it embaressing that even the pound does not go up against the super sick euro !! What does that tell you about how this economy is viewed from abroard and by investors with money ?? Oh well another week of fun on the markets whatever tomorrow brings ...................

Hate to correct your post of 22.00 but official unemployment is already 2.5 million,and then when you add on the people claiming disability benefit (labours way of fiddling the true unemployment figures !! ),then we are already at 4 million,p.s add on a few more because not everyone signs on and we are already there !!! Add in a totally bankrupt uk plc thanks to Labour and yes i would say gold is a good hedge,because they will be quite happy with rampant inflation as it erodes the national debt which Labour have amassed to 1 Trillion,lets face it if they were a business would you lend to hmg ???? I know i wouldnt !!

Off the radar ,for too long its time the masses woke up to this one ,lets hit the top of the leaderboard then we might get some attention,you have been advised that this is a winner ,you can lead a horse to water but you you cant make it ............................................sector ;-)

Blimey i have been on the BTC board,no one there,Char board,no one there ,Obt board some invader posted to say he had sold up ,what a plonker KDD just about to get taken over so OBT will shoot up and he sells up,some people born with two brain cells!!! Any Sector me ol chum i knew you would be here ? Yes mate i am here,been a bit slow on PST lately just waitng for a trading update then all will be well and we can continue our climb up again,sounds like a bluddy good idea mate,like it when things go up dont you !! Got any good tips monsieur ? Yes in fact i have try PVR but get in quick its going to fly,thanks mate will do roger and out for now ,heres to a good week ,sector ;-)

i thought an update was not due till the of the month?

Your feeding the kids to the ducks !!! Thats cruel !! ;-) Bet they couldnt eat a whole one LOL..............................

Well said mate remember they were being stalked last year at a t/o price of circa 65p ;-)

So profits yes thats right profits may only be 20 million or so ,at least they will still be making profits !!Any weakness represents a good buying opportunity imho as the group remains well placed to benefit as operators struggle to keep up with the growth in data traffic.The group remains highly cash generative and trades on 9.5 times earnings for 2010 (when share price was 97p),this makes Intec one of the cheapest stocks in the sector.Bought in today its a bargain ,gla sector :-)
