SYDNEY (AFX) - Share prices closed higher, propelling the key market indices
to fresh record highs, led by the resources sector, dealers said.
They said volume was relatively strong, driven by the expiry of the December
S&P/ASX 200 futures contract and the closing out of options positions, resulting
in broad gains.
Dealers said solid commodity prices kept interest in the resources sector
alive with substantial prices rises for coal next year already locked in and
talk of at least a 20 pct rise in iron ore prices adding to the positive
sentiment.

Just to let you know you're not on your own.

[ntv] 14/12/2004 16:39

Acquisition of Licences in Paranatinga


13 December 2004

River Diamonds plc ("River Diamonds" or "the Company"), the AIM-quoted diamond
mining and exploration company, today announces that it has successfully secured
the sub-surface exploration rights to 80,000 hectares - the Paranatinga project
("the Project") - in the Paranatinga region of Brazil. The region is
prospective for both kimberlite and alluvial deposits and the Company intends to
begin exploration on the prospect in early February 2005. The Project is
located approximately 220km southeast of Cuiaba in the Municipality of
Paranatinga and is accessible via a federal highway and gravel road.

Colin Orr-Ewing, Executive Chairman of River Diamonds, comments, "We are
delighted with the progress which has been achieved since flotation. Not only
have we significantly developed our existing projects, we have also identified
and acquired some very prospective new properties in areas of historic diamond
production. We believe that the new licences in Paranatinga represent an
excellent opportunity for the Company and its shareholders as we now gain
exposure to a project which has the potential for kimberlitic as well as
alluvial sources of diamonds."

The Paranatinga region is noted for its historic alluvial diamond production and
the presence of kimberlites. In the 1950s, alluvial diamond mining developed
along the Batovi, Jara and Paranatinga Rivers and production reached a peak in
the early 1960s when official production reached a rate of 4,000 carats per
month. The area has produced some large stones and 60% of the diamonds
recovered were of gem quality.

Between the 1970s and 1990s, the region was intermittently explored by several
major mining and exploration companies and around forty kimberlites were
discovered. The Company believes that these targets, and the region as whole,
are worth reinvestigating because of advances in technology and a new
understanding of the kimberlite emplacement theory in Brazil.

Traditionally the initial stages of kimberlite exploration have been carried out
using a combination of airborne magnetic surveys and following "trials" of
kimberlitic indicator minerals such as G10 Garnets. However, as evidenced by
recent exploration in the state of Rondonia by other companies, these methods
have failed to identify all the kimberlites and in fact additional kimberlites
and kimberlitic targets have been identified using ground electro-magnetic
surveys. The electro-magnetic surveys identified much larger anomalies
underneath previously identified kimberlites, which suggest multiple intrusions
of kimberlites along zones of weakness rather than one episode of kimberlitic
intrusion as previously believed.

The claims which the Company has secured for the Project were selected on the
basis of desk study results which management and the Company's consultants
considered to indicate potential kimberlite targets in conjunction with evidence
of diamond potential based on the local history of alluvial production.

The initial exploration programme, due to commence in early February 2005 and
scheduled for completion in July 2005, will consist of systematic sampling of
active stream sediments and heavy mineral evaluation as well as the sampling,
mapping and ground electro-magnetic surveys of any weathered expression of
kimberlites encountered.

Exploration Update


Update of Exploration Activities at Tres Barras


Update of Regional Exploration


6 December 2004


River Diamonds plc ("River Diamonds" or "the Company"), the AIM-quoted diamond
mining and exploration company, has completed the first phase of the drilling
programme at the Tres Barras project. Drilling at the Tres Barras project began
two weeks ahead of schedule, at the beginning of November 2004. The first phase
of drilling covered an area of roughly 250,000 m2 and consisted of over 60
holes.


The drilling encountered an alluvial gravel deposit, which has a thickness
between 0.45m and 2.4m. Preliminary physical analysis of the samples collected
indicate that they are from the same deposit as exposed in diamond and gold
artisanal mining pits located in Tres Barras. Further analysis of the data and
samples is currently being carried out to identify the morphology of any palaeo-
channels, associated gravel deposits and the heavy mineral content of the
samples. Drilling has commenced on the next alluvial target at Tres Barras and
bulk sampling is scheduled to commence in December 2004, with completion of the
exploration programme anticipated in March 2005. The Tres Barras concession is
roughly 10 km west of Melgueira.


In addition, ACA Howe Limited has been appointed to carry out the satellite and
stereoscopic image interpretation of the geology and geomorphology of the Tres
Barras and Melgueira areas and their surrounds. The area of study covers 2,500
sq km and the objectives of this work are:


* To identify palaeo-drainage and other geomophological features that
influence the deposition of alluvial diamond deposits;

* To map regional structural features that may control drainage in the
area;

* To identify structures which may control minor intrusives that could be
related to Kimberlite occurrence; and

* To highlight specific geological targets that warrant further
investigation including field mapping, drilling and bulk sampling.


The Company has also prepared applications for a large number of additional
licences which all hold potential for kimberlite exploration. The processing of
these applications has been held up by a five-week strike at the Ministry of
Mines. This strike is expected to be settled in the next week.

Tehy arent short of stock, if it wasnt for that overhang, we'd have been a lot higher. Now its out the way lets hope there arent anymore on the way up to fair value :)

[mibb] 03/12/2004 12:27

The chart looks brilliant, but we'll see. Does anyone else suspect that they have put the bid up for the sake of it to see if it encourages selling? I reckon it's a ploy to see if it is safe to take the price up a bit, the old 'short of stock' doesn't figure somehow.

[buffin] 02/12/2004 17:55

4m sale today?

[porker] 02/12/2004 17:37

My post no. 6 was answered today by a representative of TIR but gave nothing away as the "present portfolio is not in the public domain".No doubt they will announce any changes at the next AGM.

[mibb] 02/12/2004 17:26

Has to have held the price back for some time, that could have taken several days to clear, or at least the last couple. It isn't vast, £100k, but the MM's wouldn't have taken it on, they will have dissipated it into buying. Good luck tomorrow!

[kael] 02/12/2004 17:12

that 4 mil is what has held the price back.

[tessybear] 02/12/2004 17:11

I'm no expert but this chart looks really good to me, I hold 40,000 at the moment am thinking of topping up as there looks a quiet steady rise to me. Any opinions. Tessy.

There will be more...

[mibb] 02/12/2004 17:09

Maestro, what price was the T trade at? Sorry, I have no means of checking trades at the moment....

[johndee] 02/12/2004 16:30

I had suffered huge losses too and built up expensive loans as a result.......but if you are in the UK there is a company that I went to for help and they have stopped all my interest on my loans inc. credit cards and also my monthly payments have been more then halved with the prospect that the loans and CC's will be finally settled at less than half of the actual loan and credit values. Let me know if you require any help.You are out of debt normally within 5 years.

[maestro.] 02/12/2004 16:29

wow! 4m T trade
