Stans Energy Corp. Announces Initiation of JORC Resource Estimate for Kalesay Beryllium Deposit

30.11.2010  |  Business Wire


Stans Energy Corp (TSX-V: RUU) ("Stans′ or the "Company′) has retained
Kazakhstan Mineral Company (KMC) to complete an Australian Joint Ore
Reserves Committee (JORC) compliant Resource Estimate for its Kalesay
Beryllium deposit, with an expected completion date of March, 2011. The
Company owns a mining licence for the Kalesay Beryllium Deposit,
acquired on December 29, 2009. The Kalesay Deposit is located 200 metres
(m) east of the Company′s Kutessay II past-producing rare earth mine.

Summary of Kalesay

'A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the
historical estimate as a current mineral resource, Stans Energy Corp. is
not treating the historical estimate as a current mineral resource and
the historical estimate should not be relied upon.?
Dr Gennady
Savchenko QP for Stans Energy Corp., and managing Director for Stans
Energy KG. For reference, in a paper written in the Mining Journal in
2004, Stephen Henley noted that the Russian C1 resource category fell
between 'Measured Resource/Indicated Resource? and C2 resource category
fell between 'Indicated Resource/Inferred Resource' categories under the
CIM system. However, it should be noted that the Russian resource
categories are not equivalent to the CIM categories, no comparison is
implied, and the historic resource categories should not be relied upon.

Historical Tonnage and Grade Estimate


The historical data, completed by Soviet geologists in 1971, was
previously approved by the Kyrgyz State Reserve Committee for the
Kalesay property, identifying an estimate of 9,245,000 metric tons (mt),
containing 11,701 mt of Beryllium Oxide (BeO), at an average grade of
0.128%, classified in the Soviet C1+C2 categories. The estimate is based
on the following parameters:


  • Cut-off grade of BeO - 0.06%;

  • Minimum content in a block - 0.103% BeO;

  • Minimum thickness of intervals above cutoff - 2.0 m;

  • Maximum thickness of layers below cutoff, included within the deposit-
    2.0 m;


The identified deposit remains open beyond the historical designed pit
flanks and to depth.

Infrastructure


The deposit occurs at elevations above sea level of 2400-2700 m.
Electricity is readily available, with the town of Aktyuz located 2 km
away. A road joins the Kalesay beryllium deposit with the Company′s
Kutessay II open pit.

Mineralization Description


Beryllium mineralization at the Kalesay deposit is localized with two
zones: Severnaya and Yuzhnaya. Both zones are exposed at the surface and
occur as steeply dipping, parallel tabular stockworks of chloritic,
amphibole, feldspar gneiss. The Yuzhnaya zone is 1600 m long, extends at
least 500 m deep, and is 80m thick. The Severnaya zone is 800m long,
extends at least 180m deep and is 65m thick. Both zones were explored
through underground drifts.


Phenakite, the most common beryllium mineral in the deposit, hosts
nearly 80% of the beryllium. Other minerals present containing the
element include bavenite, beryl, genthelvite, milarite, and
helbertrandite.

Mining and Metallurgy


Historical investigations by the Soviets indicate 70% of the estimated
resource has the potential to be mined by open pit. Metallurgical test
work was also conducted by the Soviets using twenty-four samples in the
early 1970s. Three different metallurgical flowsheets were tested. At
the time, the optimal process resulted in 8.23% BeO content in the
concentrate. Further metallurgical testing is needed to improve the
historical methods using new technologies.

Price of Beryllium


The price of Beryllium has increased significantly in 2010, but varies
in different parts of the world. According to the US Geological Survey,
the price in the United States has more than doubled in 2010, since it
was quoted at $264.00/kg USD in 2009. On November 29, 2010, the Shanghai
Metals Market (www.smm.cn)
quoted the price of >99% beryllium at $825.00/kg USD.
