Johnno,

Various ways, in UK probably best way is TD Waterhouse you can speak to someone up to 21.00 hours GMT to get your orders in.

Notice Pennants being formed on Platinum and Palladium, nice big hammer intraday Palladium.








We are still awaiting details of when the Assay Results on the B Chromite Reef 10,000 metres Drilled will get announced, I see it as a positive that TSX:BTP are extending their Land Holdings by JV with Premium next door.



It sounds like they think they are on to something significant to me.

Intraday Hammer on Stillwater Mining Co NYSE:SWC



All IMHO, NAG, DYOR etc

Cheers

by the way great call on 888. who do you use to trade your aussie stocks out of interest?

[jonno1] 09/11/2006 18:40

Hi Ash, yep I'm long PD and still long gold fron 580, short the dow and long yen, also still got my BTP, but not that many, still no news...

[mr ashley james] 09/11/2006 17:45

Johnno, Platinum and Palladium Going through the Roof in December 2006 and January 2007 Futures

[jonno1] 03/11/2006 20:41

Ash, would you buy palladium here to catch platinum's coat tails, rather than buy plat,?
my feeling is that even if plat is supposedly going to etf, surely palladium must be due a big correction, it only moved slightly today up 14, but only finished up 8... your views always appreciated
just bought some more pd

[mr ashley james] 03/11/2006 15:09

Johnno, I know just look at Platinum and Palladium go!

[jonno1] 03/11/2006 10:42

palladium making a move, bought a bit the last few days, heres hoping it catchs platinum up!

[jonno1] 02/11/2006 19:04

hope so, I have a nice position in gold anyhow from 579 and 581, find platinum too crazy!

[mr ashley james] 02/11/2006 18:26

Johnno,

I reckon next moves on Palladium will be US$369 then US$417 per toz personally.

Normally get dragged up by Platinum IMHO.

Remember Pd hit US$1,100 per toz in 2000.

All IMHO, NAG, DYOR etc

Cheers

Ash:)

[mr ashley james] 02/11/2006 18:19

Johnno,

I wouldn't worry about it, hammer and pennant completing on Pd still looks very bullish chart to me!

[jonno1] 02/11/2006 18:15

so platinum up $57.5 palladium up 0.6, and guess what one I bought!

[mr ashley james] 02/11/2006 16:04

Johnno, don't know normally Palladium is delayed,Platinum going great guns mind you.

[jonno1] 02/11/2006 14:24

Ash, I see plat is up a fair bit the last few days, why is palladium down?

[mr ashley james] 01/11/2006 17:37

Ah PGM Prices!

[mr ashley james] 01/11/2006 17:37

Johnno1,

I can not see anything on stockwatch or BTP Website maybe something on SEDAR?

Maybe a leak?

No idea.

Cheers

Ash:)

[jonno1] 01/11/2006 17:13

do we have news Ash, up 20%...oh looks likes a misprint

[mr ashley james] 31/10/2006 16:02

Welcome on board Johnno1, now we just need results from Mike Johnson.

[jonno1] 31/10/2006 15:20

got another 10000 @.125 today

[jonno1] 30/10/2006 15:25

Hi Ash, bought a few @13

[mr ashley james] 28/10/2006 19:54

Johnno,

I don't normally take grap samples seriously, because of surface enrichment.



Cheers

Ash:)

[mr ashley james] 28/10/2006 19:34

Johnno as soon as BTP start getting the first batches of assay results back from the Assay Labs I should think, ie anytime soon.


Beartooth completes 2006 Stillwater fieldwork


2006-10-16 08:54 ET - News Release

Mr. Michael Johnson reports

BEARTOOTH PLATINUM CORPORATION ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF FIELD WORK PORTION OF 2006 PROGRAM AT STILLWATER PROPERTY

Beartooth Platinum Corp. has completed its 2006 field season with the onset of winter into the Stillwater project area in south-central Montana.

The 2006 field season, which started in mid-June, consisted of geophysical surveys, soil geochemistry, geologic mapping and drilling. The program was designed to dramatically add to the understanding of the platinum-group metal (PGM) mineralization of the B chromitite reef and to define the full extent of the B chromitite reef on ground controlled by Beartooth.

Consequently, during the summer, Beartooth:


collected approximately 275 line kilometres of ground magnetic geophysical data;
collected 9,312 soil samples on 25-metre spacing, providing approximately 233 line kilometres of coverage; and
followed the geophysical and soil sampling crews with detailed geologic mapping.

These programs have significantly extended the previously know extent of the B chromitite. Finally, 10,071 feet were drilled in 11 holes, to dissect the anomalous zone of PGMs associated with the surface exposure of the B chromitite.

Assay results are arriving slowly and intermittently. The next six to eight weeks will be dedicated to receiving the remaining assays and compiling the data into the Arc View data base. At that point, management will be ready to plan the 2007 field program.

Michael Johnson, president and chief executive officer of Beartooth, noted, "The more exploration we do, the more we understand the layered igneous complex at Stillwater and the more similarities we see to the Bushveld complex in South Africa."

The Bushveld contains two reefs, each about one metre in width, the Merensky and the UG2. These reefs are in the form of pancakes approximately 350 kilometres in diameter and separated vertically by just a few hundred metres.

The Stillwater complex in Montana has a similar geologic history, except for a younger granitic intrusion which has steeply tilted the original pancake-shaped reefs to the northeast. At the Stillwater complex, the reefs are represented by the JM reef, which extends for at least 26 miles and is currently being mined by Stillwater Mining Co. (SMC) at a annual rate of 600,000 ounces of PGMs, and the B chromitite reef. The B chromitite reef occurs both on Beartooth-controlled and Premium Exploration ground. Beartooth recently disclosed an agreement with Premium to continue exploration on the Premium property. This enables Beartooth to control a similar strike length to SMC.

The major difference between the Bushveld and Stillwater reefs is grade. In the Bushveld, both the Merensky and UG2 reefs average about four to seven grams per tonne PGM. At Stillwater, the JM reef averages 20 to 22 grams per tonne PGM. Beartooth has collected similar grades from surface outcrop and expects a similar tenor to the mineralization at depth.

We seek Safe Harbor.

Thanks for that ASH, when are the Stillwater Chromite B Reef drilling results due? I was under the impression it was months away? hence my remark of waiting for a drop in price, if thats not the case I will try and have a dabble this week, certainly looks like theres a chance of picking some up at .11 on a limit order?

BTW did you see the news out from MAJ last week, only surface findings but looked incredible % CU, any view?

Cheers
Jon

[mr ashley james] 28/10/2006 18:42

Johnno next move up in Palladium should take us to US$369 then US$417 IMHO

Last time TSX:BTP went from 8 cents to 26 cents in three months, I dare say it will go far, far higher than that on Drilling Results which prove that the B Chromite shows continuity of grade, by Depth, Along Strike, and by width.

Personally I think this is the most prospective location in the World I know of bar Norilsk refer Norilsk Nickel MSE:GMKN, and possibly Tanzania refer Goldstream Mining NL ASX:GDM

All IMHO, NAG, DYOR etc

Cheers

[mr ashley james] 28/10/2006 18:38

Johnno the B Reef outcrops at 112 grammes per metric tonne PGM that is the highest grade I have seen in the World!

Beartooth Platinum Awards Progressive Drilling Company the 2006 Contract for Their Stillwater Complex Exploration Program
08:00 EDT Wednesday, May 10, 2006

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(CCNMatthews - May 10, 2006) - Beartooth Platinum Corporation (TSX VENTURE:BTP) announced today that Progressive Drilling Company, based in Elko, Nevada has been awarded the 2006 contract for the Company's 10,000 meter drilling program at their Stillwater property, located in South Central Montana. Drilling is expected to commence in early June, as soon as the winter snow melt allows access.

All of the necessary drilling and prospecting permits have been obtained from the United States Forest Service (USFS).

The 2006 program at Stillwater will focus on drill testing the 5,200 meter (17,000 feet) strike of the B Chromitite defined during the 2005 field season by geologic mapping and sampling, grid soil sampling and ground geophysics. The B Chromitite has yielded samples containing up to 112 g/t (3.0 ounces) of combined platinum, palladium & gold.

In 2005, over 50 years of exploration data for the district was compiled onto one data set. From this data compilation, it became apparent that the B Chromite had never been systematically drilled for platinum or palladium mineralization. During 2006, BTP plans to drill on sections 200 meter (650 feet) apart, cross-cutting the B Chromitite horizon.

The B Chromitite is one of eleven (A through K) parallel chromitite reefs within the ultramafic zone of the layered intrusive Silllwater Complex. Consequently, BTP's 2006 drill program is also designed to intercept these units on 400 meter centers to determine if they are also anomalous in platinum and palladium mineralization.

Additional surface exploration will be performed on other targets within BTP's 14,000 acres land package. These targets have not yet been fully tested by either BTP or previous exploration programs. These targets include: extensions to the B Chromitite horizon, the VEZ and Picket Pen targets. All these targets contain anomalous platinum and palladium mineralization and are parallel to Stillwater Mining Company's (SMC) JM Reef. SMC is actively mining from reserves of 36.5 million tons with a grade of 20.1 g/t platinum and palladium.

Surface exploration work will consist of geologic mapping and sampling of available outcrop, combined with grid soil geochemistry and ground magnetic surveys in areas of cover.

In addition, the option with Desert Charm Trading 189 (Pty) Ltd which Beartooth was previously evaluating will not be exercised. After drilling two core holes and performing a ground magnetic survey, BTP did not intercept Bushveld Complex rocks containing the platinum and palladium bearing Merensky and UG2 reefs.

The two core holes, which were designed to intersect the potential extensions of the UG2 and Merensky reefs adjacent to Lonmin's Limpopo Property, intercepted the underlying Transvaal metasediments. In addition, a comprehensive ground magnetic program did not locate a magnetic unit known to lie stratagraphically above the Merensky and UG2 mineralized horizons.

BTP geologists have interpreted that the Bushveld Complex mafic rocks, containing the Merensky and UG2 reefs, have been attenuated or pinched out in this area.

Consequently, BTP will terminate the option agreement with Desert Charm Trading (Pty) Ltd.

Michael Johnson, President and CEO of BTP stated "For a cost of $50,000 for the option, we have had an active look at the Bushveld geology. Unfortunately we are dealing with complex geology in this region and mineral resources are not entirely predictable even with the proximity we had to the mine that Lonmin is operating. We are planning to pursue other opportunities in this important platinum and palladium rich Bushveld Complex".

Johnno,

The chart is a Cup and Handle formation with 7 backtests of 11 cents support, it is unlikely to go to 10 cents imo.

My gut feeling is we will now see a strong rise in lead up to Stillwater Chromite B Reef drilling results which I expect to be spectacular.
