Some news for you. China Biodiesel International Holding Co., Ltd. ("CBI" or the "Company") Trading update for the year ended 31 December 2009 CBI, one of the leading producers of biodiesel focused on the Chinese market, today announces a trading update covering the financial year ended 31 December 2009. In the second half of 2009, the Chinese economy continued to recover from the international financial crisis. This recovery allowed CBI to increase total biodiesel shipments from its Longyan and Xiamen facilities during the fourth quarter of 2009. Total shipment volumes for the year therefore was approximately 39,000 tonnes based on management accounts received to date (25,273 tonnes: 2008). The increased volume also reflects eight months of production at the Company's Xiamen plant. At the interim results, the Board reported gross margin pressure due principally to lower selling prices. While selling prices did improve in the second half of 2009, they remained below historic levels achieved by the Company. The Board therefore expects to report revenue for the year ended 2009 to be broadly in line with that reported for 2008. During 2009, the Company has continued to receive government subsidies and grants. These grants and subsidies have remained at levels consistent with those reported in 2008 and have related to development of renewable energy and energy saving initiatives. Taking these grants into account, the Board, based on management accounts reviewed to date, believe the Company will report a profit after tax of approximately RMB 11 million for the year ended 31 December 2009. The Board has used free cash generated in the second half of the year to reduce its bank loans by RMB14 million in the second half of the 2009 financial year. The Company confirms it will announce its results for the year ended 31 December 2009 in April 2010

Been watching this one.A nice buy of a working plant ready to be moved 2010.I need to save up a bit of spare cah to get in soon. The Whim Creek SX-EW plant is capable of producing 18,000 tonnes of copper cathode per annum and is well suited to Finders' needs at its Wetar Copper Project in Indonesia. The recently completed definitive feasibility study for the Wetar Copper Project incorporates use of the Whim Creek plant. The Whim Creek plant is currently located at Straits' Whim Creek mine in Western Australia. Finders will commence the dismantling of the Whim Creek plant in January 2010 - a process that is expected to take around three months to complete - and will then prepare for its subsequent relocation to Wetar Island. Finders' Chairman, Russell Fountain, commented that "Aquisition of the Whim Creek SX-EW plant represents a major advance towards development of the full scale Wetar Copper Project, by providing certainty of both supply and timing for key components for the development, as well as significant cost savings compared to the purchase of new equipment. We also appreciate the confidence in the project shown by Straits Resources in their willingness to accept Finders shares in full payment for the transaction." GL hope to join soon.
Central China Goldfields PLC (AIM: GGG) said it was notified by notified by chairman Peter Ruxton that he bought 17,336 ordinary shares in the company on December 10 at a price of 2.8p per share. This represents Ruxton's total shareholding in the company, and equates to approximately 0.0095 percent of the issued share capital. Central China in December terminated its interest in the Dong Mao Huo gold project, thus exiting its last project in China. The company now has no further financial obligations to meet in respect of exploration properties in China, but retains a 10 percent interest in the Nimu project in the country until the full consideration for the planned sale of Nimu is received. The primary focus is now on the Cikoleang gold property in Indonesia where the company, having paid an initial US$45,000 to its local partner, PT Fino Bersaudara, is undertaking an extensive work programme to determine whether this property can be moved into early production. In addition, Central China is still actively reviewing a number of gold and copper opportunities with a view to acquiring further assets which can be fast tracked into production.
