GreenFields Coal's goal is cleaner coal. GreenFields Coal's goal has developed a patent-pending technology and three-step process that turns coal refuse into cleaner-burning coal briquettes for various alternative energy uses. Compared to other commercially available coal products, its solid briquettes have shown lower toxin levels and moisture content, as well as good durability and weather resistance. No underground mining is involved at GreenFields' processing facilities, although its technology can be deployed alongside traditional coal mine operations to help reduce the coal waste that typically goes into slurry ponds. GreenFields Coal's goal primarily targets the power generation and steel production markets.

Spider Resources Inc. is an active, Tier 2, junior exploration company listed on the TSE-X. At its inception in 1992, Spider was focused exclusively on the exploration for, and the discovery of diamonds in Ontario, but has since broadened its focus to include other commodities. Spider’s tenacity and exploration savvy resulted in the discoveries of 3 diamond bearing kimberlite pipes on the McFayden property, 5 diamond bearing kimberlite pipes on the Kyle properties, diamonds in lamprophyre dykes on the Wawa property, 2 VMS copper-zinc deposits on the McFaulds property, and the Big Daddy chromite deposit.Spider, one of the first companies to explore in the James Bay Lowlands of northern Ontario, was the spark that ignited the Ring of Fire. At present, Spider’s main focus is the development of the Big Daddy’s chromite deposit. Spider is now positioned to enter the next evolutionary phase of its corporate growth and create value through the breadth of its interests.

Robex is a junior Canadian mining exploration & development company with nine permits located in Mali, western Africa. Mali is currently Africa’s third most important gold producing country. Three of Robex’s permit are situated in southern Mali (Mininko, Kamasso and N’Golopene) while the six others are located in the western area of the country (Diangounte, Sanoula, Kolomba, Moussala, Wili-Wili and Wili-Wili west). Robex is presently working towards developing its permits which indicate favourable geology with ore potential.The priority permits for Robex are Wili-Wili, Wili-Wili west, as well as Mininko. The latter is host to a potential of an inferred resource of 760,000 ounces of gold with an average grade of 1.0 g/t in accordance with the Canadian standard 43-101 ( see rapport ). Robex is presently completing the Nampala prefeasibility study with the intent of installing a gravimetric mill with a daily capacity of 2,000 tons of ore mineral within the Saprolite.This past October, the engineering-consulting firm GENIVAR, of Québec, reviewed and consequently assessed the three-dimensional resource block-model on the mineralisation of the Nampala deposit. Initially, the three-dimensional resource block-model was completed in the framework of the gold resource estimate (NI 43-101 compliant) completed by the Australian consultant firm RSG Global (now Coffey Mining) completed in 2007. The plan and section review completed by Genivar provided a better understanding of the anticipated gold distribution within the Nampala deposit. With the information available to date, the 200 and 300 lenses situated in the central and western portion of the site indicate that inferred resources are estimated to be at 15,000 ounces of gold for Lens 200 and 71,000 ounces of gold for the Lens 300. The concentration and distribution within these two bodies represents, at present, a marginal economical potential which will be further investigated at a later stage. However, according to the block-model, Lens 100 developed along the eastern flank of the Nampala zone is host to an inferred resource of 675,000 ounces of gold contained within 14,130 Mt of ore at an average grade of 0.93 g/t Au. These resources are located between the surface and the explored depth of 150 meters. In accordance with NI 43-101 standards, the above findings are based on insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and as such, it is uncertain if further exploration will result in discovery of a mineral resource.
