RAMBINEWS.COM, MEULABOH - Hundreds of students and activists from non-governmental organizations in West Aceh staged a demonstration at the Meulaboh Pelor Roundabout, West Aceh, Monday (10/15/2018).
The demonstration took place peacefully and rejected the presence of PT Emas Mineral Murni (EMM) in Beutong Banggalang Nagan Raya and Central Aceh.
The demonstration in the name of student action for the generation of Beutong Banggalang (AM GBAB) was escorted by the local police.
The crowd carried banners, cartoons and loudspeakers which were delivered alternately.
Explanation of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) of the Republic of Indonesia responded to the action of the gold mine refusal by PT Emas Mineral Murni (PT EMM) in Nagan Raya

Over the years I have posted many many times not to neglect the importance of giving full attention to our social responsibilities.
Action and not Lip service and neither resting on our laurels will ever do. Mansur was always very categorical " a mine without access is not a mine"

No wonder few likes you.

Short term return = Obtaining benefit at other's expense = Parasite

Let the unbelievers go If they thought that ARS was just a name to make money!

For the rest of us it is nothing except that timing is not upon us just as yet.
If one keep in mind that one difficulty experienced from day one of exploration was where to start digging, as mineralisation was found everywhere on the concession, is it really surprising that 30 years later we witness Tony and his team of very capable professionals are facing a dilemma of another kind? Not where to start but where to stop!!
Its tells me nothing except another proof of the exceptional nature of the KSK area.

Good luck to the ARS team and all of Us!

In the 20 years that we have been exploring
in this region of Kalimantan, no previous
prospect has generated such consistent,
high grade gold, copper, silver plus
lead and zinc assays over an area of this
size.
Baroi was identified during regional reconnaissance
in 1985 and 1997. However, due
to the extreme inaccessibility of the area,
sustained exploration was not possible.
With the recent construction of logging
roads, this situation has now changed and
during Ramadhan 2002 we were able to
initiate work at the prospect.
The Baroi prospects forms a large 8-
kilometer in diameter circular dome like
mountain, with peaks to 1000 meters
above sea level. While it is still very early
days, we are extremely encouraged by
both the size and the high-grade nature of
the mineralization at Baroi.
Gold, Copper, Silver, Lead and Zinc mineralization
has been identified within an
area covering 6.5 by 4 kilometers. One
sample from the central part of this system
has returned values of 18 grams of gold
per ton of rock, 16.4% or 164 kilograms of
copper per ton of rock and 460 grams of
silver per ton of rock. Rock sample assays
from the surrounding zones of lead and
zinc mineralization, have also returned
impressive values of up to 18% or 180
kilograms of lead per ton of rock, 29 % or
290 kilograms of zinc per ton of rock and
325 grams of silver per ton of rock.

Very savvy investor indeed , if he knew what we know you would think it had ARS written all over :=)

@freeheel @KevinARS was talking with James Deo (CFO) regarding possible lower costs given the depreciation of the Rupiah and took the opportunity to have a wider chat. He posted this in a private chat and was happy for it to be shared:

“Had an excellent update call with James today. I’m very reassured. We covered quite a lot but James said he is really excited about asiamet, it reminds him of his days at oxiana...but we have a much better outlook in terms of the #copper market than they did then. Beutong is absolutely huge - a billion dollar potential asset and it’s very early days there but we have a resource. BFS no specific date discussed but sounds very very close. He said we have 38 or so targets on ksk a lot of which have the potential to be bigger than BKM. Mind blowing isn’t it. No value for Beutong at all. Lots of interest in the company and plenty of options around BKM and partners...”
Thanks Kevin, as always!

I post it because I find James comments interesting. James is a person who , like Owen H., is someone who has
a great reserve of personal ambition. He is not a person who like to waste his time.
For me, this again confirm what I always believed about KSK.

Freeheel, I hope many investors take notice and will follow your example to buy shares for their kids . I bought for mines many years ago. They are no longer kids of course :=)
So It makes me happy that slowly people are starting to see what ARS could become. A long time ago when KSK's potential became apparent it was already perceived how one day it could underpin the economic development of Central Kalimantan and thus Indonesia.
Remember that for a long time Jakarta as a Capital had serious limitations and for the last 40 years Palangkaraya has been penciled to take over. The Govt has been dragging their feet. I believe that building a successful mine on KSK concession will help crystallize the move. No one knows how long it will take but Who would want to miss out on such a dramatic nation building event?
Wishing good luck in the next few days for all short and long term investors

How things in this world correlate is often a mystery and usually difficult to envisage .
I give you an example. One about CH and you may even figure out yourself that it is kind of a secret .
Question: Why has your country been at peace for such a long time?
Answer : due to the protection emanating out of the cross on the confederation flag (btw it would be an error to attempt to change it )
Now regarding ARS it may be for you purely a profit making exercise but for some it is not the whole story. For some there is also a strong wish to see it shine by becoming a veritable success combining excellent return and best practice

I am not sure how feasible it would be to help our neighbours islanders but it is critical that ARS put in a substantial contribution looking after the interest of the local population.

Long time ago i used to own shares in Placer Dome . Disgraceful operation will always come back to bite you.

Now that Freeport has lost a big chunk of its main asset I am
wondering if Freeport has sold their ARS shares or is planning a volte face on Indonesia and KSK.
They easily can afford to improve on their refundable $30 Mil

My corny version of a quote:
Sometimes news come quickly and at other times they are terribly slow to arrive. It is not my place to determine the speed at which they come or if the arrive at all.
My place is to keep looking forward.
(Sorry I could not resist and probably deserve to be filtered)
BTW , YTS the Company foundation latest report tells how well the are going and how much they are looking forward for the mining activities to begin as this will broaden and deepen its capacity and outreach

For People like Chartist ARS is puzzling because they are not able pick when a share is an exception to the rule.
ARS is one of those rare case and the logic is too simple. Stick to it . Hopefully we will be allowed to do such thing long enough but if very unfortunately we happen to be taken out then exchange for shares in the new Company . Don't let go. Finger cross it will not be (that) private equity firm.

No one can tell you what is the futur going to be so better believe in your own judgement.
As for ARS, feel it deeply within yourself and know how far it can get. As for anyone wavering, well, free country as they say.

Our call
Imagine what will be possible and can become the mining of the futur if the present crop of shareholders keep their cool and opt for the longer term to witness the growth of their investment.
How long do you think ARS is going to be there? With the number of identified prospects I would say until next century at least. So lets plan for it.
As already evidenced, harder line taken by Govt mean that if the Company hope to secure its permit renewal at the end of the CoW it will be imperative to ensure a reputation second to none and achieved a very positive impact on the local population and environment.
Did you know that in fact this very approach started back from day one and in the measure and extent that progress and finance allowed. To maintain this goodwill the more the Company becomes prosperous the greater the CSR programs budget will need to be. My view is that it will be unwise to deviate from that.
But naturally supporting the Board in this domain ought to be more forthcoming if the larger proportion of current shareholders stayed the course as they will have plenty to share around :=)

KSK is not just a monster it is the mother of all monsters.

Additional 33 prospects to be evaluated!!!

Good luck.

The management have little ammunition to defend the Company and so essentially the message is don't take the bait if you are still questioning what will be the right thing to do when that happen!
Large miners are circling but that is not new, believe me. Over many years there has been dozen of parties interested in KSK potential. Not just for the copper. But now with copper shortage looming it has become the main focus and thus shifted up a gear or two.

So IMHO what the MGT with PETER are trying to do (within their limited scope of action) is once again ILLUSTRATE for you what you need to see thru their eyes:

......within the KSK CoW there are ADDITIONAL projects to be evaluated and which have potential production. BKM is the FIRST cab of the rank in an EXCEPTIONAL area that has INCREDIBLE MINERAL ENDOWMENT....

Say no more ;=)

Thank you very much for that Mate.
If We and Mansur don't get rich from mining (LOL) maybe buy shares in the publishing house because when He pen down his TRULY AMAZING STORY(ies) it will be an absolute crackerjack of a book!
We have watched the movie but Mansur lived it!

Mining and its impact on the environment. A reminder Asiamet must lead by example.

LOL, it does not take a genius nor insider knowledge. Just a bit of research. As I said the writing on the wall goes way back, and If I am wrong then Owen is no longer at the top of his game.
