John Whittier Greenleaf, the American Quaker poet and abolitionist, was noted for saying, “I’ll lift you and you lift me, and we’ll both ascend together.” It looks as if Ascendant Copper (TSX:ACX) has taken some of his sage relationship advice as it ushers in a new phase of its ascendancy with its friendly takeover of St. Geneviève Resources (CNQ:SGVL) of Montréal. The Boards of Directors of both ACX and SGVL have unanimously approved a letter of intent in which ACX acquires all of the outstanding shares of SGVL in exchange for up to 30,000,000 ACX common shares, as per its October 31st press release. Completion of the transaction is subject to final due diligence by ACX and SGVL.

This latest news represents a new chapter for Ascendant as it diversifies its asset base and gathers momentum in its push to achieve mid-tier production status. Of particular interest are SGVL’s two past-producing copper properties in Arizona.

Emerald Isle is a formerly producing open-pit copper mine located 24 km northwest of Kingman. Infrastructure in the area is excellent on all counts, with water coming from nearby wells. Mine infrastructure also includes a SX/EW (solvent-leach/electrowinning*) plant, some buildings and equipment.

Emerald Isle contains a 43-101-compliant** recoverable mineral resource of 27.5 million lbs Cu. The property has a history of work dating back to 1917, with open-pit production starting in 1943. A final pre-feasibility study conducted by Behre Dolbear reports an expected mine life of 4 years, which is a conservative estimate. The company plans to put the property into production within 12 months in order to produce about 5 million lbs of copper annually. The company estimates costs of around $4 to 5 million in order to put the property back into production.

It is particularly important to note the economic advantage that a SX/EW processing scenario lends to this project. It requires a low capital investment requirement relative to the smelting process, and can be viable even on a small scale. The process has very little environmental impact, as its liquid streams are easily contained, and acids used in the process are eventually neutralized by the host rock itself. Most importantly, SX/EW also allows for the processing of copper oxides, which are very difficult and expensive to smelt. These include mined copper minerals that are in oxidized form, such as azurite, brochantite, chrysocolla and cuprite, as well as residual copper in old mine waste dumps that has been oxidized through exposure to air.

The Zonia property, located south of Prescott, consists of 3,300 acres that produced 33 million lbs Cu from 1966 to 1975 by heap leaching. In 2006, Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates (RPA) prepared a NI 43-101 technical report on the property. It outlined an inferred resource of 63 million tons copper averaging 0.37% Cu at a cutoff grade of 0.25% containing an estimated 460 million lbs Cu.

Zonia is also considered a near-term producer. Ascendant plans to update the feasibility study and expand resources through additional drilling while preparing the site for production over the next 24 to 30 months.

The acquisition of SGVL enables Ascendant to build upon its comprehensive copper-moly portfolio. The company is also able to build on a great deal of copper exploration experience, gleaned while working in Ecuador, where it owns two properties: the Chaucha copper-molybdenum in the southwest, and the Junin copper-molybdenum porphyry project in the northwest.

Chaucha has an historic geological resource estimate of 216 million tons, with 2.2 billion lbs Cu and 122 million lbs Mo. Phase III of the drilling program – which involved testing for higher grade, +1% Cu – has recently been completed. Assay results are expected shortly. At the same time, according to the company’s website, Junin has a 43-101 compliant inferred resource estimate of 982 million tonnes, with 19.2 billion lbs copper and 864 lbs molybdenum.

This latest move serves as a bridge to create increased value and cash flow for Ascendant’s shareholders in the near and mid-term future. It also serves to support the advancement of Chaucha and Junin. Recently, Ecuador’s President has come out in support of responsible mining, and the Ministry of Mines and Petroleum is laboring to determine how to best advance mineral projects within Ecuador. These new political developments should bode well for the people of Ecuador, for the mining community in general, and for Ascendant in particular.

In the meanwhile, the company will continue to build on its ongoing strategic exploration alliance in Ecuador with Rio Tinto, which gives it access to Rio Tinto’s US$14 million database.

In terms of investor awareness, the agreement with SGVL signals a key entry point for Ascendant’s potential investors in the sense that all the building blocks are now in place to ensure a balanced approach in terms of growth – and profit – at all stages of its development.

*Solvent extraction/electrowinning (SX/EW) is a two-stage process that first extracts and upgrades copper ions from low-grade leach solutions into a concentrated electrolyte, and then deposits pure copper onto cathodes using an electrolytic procedure.

**National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) and administered by the provincial securities commissions that govern how issuers disclose scientific and technical information about their mineral projects to the public. It covers oral statements as well as written documents and websites. It requires that all disclosure be based on advice by a “qualified person” and in some circumstances that the person be independent of the issuer and the property.

Why Buy Tippmann Paintball Guns

   Posted by: admin   in Kingman Communities

The supply of paintball markers is huge, to say the least. Tippmann, a company that entered the paintball market in 1986, offers a fine selection of paintball guns that should suit the needs of every paintball player. In this article, we’ll take a look on the greatest works of Tippmann, along with an in-depth review of the overall qualities that Tippmann paintball guns possess. Tippmann has been a force that has to be reckoned with in the paintball marker market, and retains a leading position in it with an innovative new feature that other companies start to employ… after Tippmann. Starting from the cheap and versatile Tippmann 98 Custom to the more expensive tournament play targeted models like the A5 and X7, Tippmann have always followed their agenda – ‘to make high-performance, durable products that people could afford’.The aforementioned marker, Tippmann 98C, is widely considered to be the ‘opus magnum’ of the company. And that’s no lie. The model is virtually indestructible; its parts can be changed as time passes by and it’s really cheap. The 98C is like the AK47 of paintball – it can be either upgraded for performance or design, so that just seeing it will intimidate your opponents. Furthermore, Tippmann also were the authors of SMG 60, the first fully automated paintball marker. Overall, the main reason why people prefer Tippmann instead of other companies like Arakion, Psycho Ballistic, Diablo, Kingman, etc, is the great longevity their paintball markers tend to have. Your Tipmann gun can be easily upgraded by replacing the barrel; furthermore, the gun you’ll buy will probably be one you can use for many years. Tippmann also are acknowledgeable sponsors of many top paintball teams. On Tippmann.com you can find a sponsorship application form. It’s a common practice for companies to give out sponsorships, but Tippmann give everyone a chance to apply for a sponsorship by their company. The guns they supply, along with good-will gestures like these keep us paintball players confident that our beloved sport is growing, mainly thanks to dedicated companies like Tippmann.The company also has a huge fan base, and what’s better than getting a bunch of friends with common interests, when you become a fan of their merchandise? Their customer service is also great; there are paintball marker giveaways each month, so if you subscribe to their mailing list, there’s a chance you can get a marker that costs a few thousand bucks. To sum this up: when you purchase a Tippmann gun, you don’t purchase just a high quality gun, but all the extras too – a 100% satisfactory customer service, a great community with people willing to help you online and willing to play you and much, much more.

Paintball guns, also known as paintball markers, are mostly used to mark an opposing player in a paintball game with a paint ball. Paintball guns were earlier used by farmers and forestry groups to mark cattle and trees. The first paintball guns were seen in 1981. These guns were invented by James C. Hal and were used initially by forest department workers for paintball games. In 1985, Robert G. Shepherd made a paintball guns specifically designed for the sport. These guns were designed to shoot the paint ball at a higher rate of speed. Compressed gas is used to power the paintball gun. Velocity that is acquired by the paintball when shot from a paintball gun is around 100m/s. For wide range of paintball guns and other products you can visit (http://www.dpxpaint.com/). Carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen or normal air is the compressed gases that are used in the paintball guns to shoot a paintball. Current paintball guns consist mainly of four main components. These parts are barrel, hoppers, tank and of course the body. Cheap paintball guns are used in competitions on the field as compared to expensive guns. But the main difference between cheap paintball guns and expensive ones is that the latter are just made to last longer.

The Arizona cities of Flagstaff and Phoenix are relatively close to one another yet have contrasting climates. Why does this difference occur?

Phoenix is located at 1100ft above sea level, and Flagstaff is located 6900ft

5800ft difference, roughly for every 1000ft you go higher the air cools by about 5.4 degrees F.

so 5.8*5.4= 31.3 degrees
flagstaff is typically 31degrees colder than phoenix. And if you actually look at the temperature statistics its true.

Higher altitudes are colder because the air is thinner (there is less of it) and the less air there is the less heat it can hold. This is why even high mountains near the equator get snow, and why flagstaff is so much colder than phoenix,

I was offered a job at the hospital in Lake Havasu City, AZ. I’ve never been there before, so I don’t really know much about the area….except that it gets HOT (and I’m ok with that!) I’m flying out there in a couple weeks to check out the area as well as the hospital.
I’ve been trying to do some research on the internet to see what the areas like, but haven’t been finding too much.
I’m a single girl in my early 20′s, would be looking for an apartment hoping to spend under $800/month. Would I be able to find a nice place for that much?
I’ve heard good and bad about the city….just hoping someone can give me a little more information on the city itself! What is there to do there….Do most people live in LHC or are there smaller towns around the area as well….I know there are quite a few retirees, but are there at least a decent amount of people my age as well? (Come on, I’m a single girl!!!)
Anything you can tell me I would really appreciate the help! :)
Thanks so much! You’ve been a HUGE help! Know of any websites that have apartment listings? For some reason I’m having trouble finding apartments through google?! …and the few that I have came across do not have pictures and do not give much informtation. Thanks again! :)

This is a wonderful place to live. My girlfriend (35) just relocated here with her 3 kids. She has a 3 bedroom duplex in a nice area for $650 a month. You can find a lot of houses for the $650-$850 range. You can play in or on the water; you can play in the desert with ATVs. Working in the medical field should certainly be stable employment. Don’t buy the idea that it is only a retirement town. I generally leave in the summer, but used to spend year-round here. 115 is NOT that bad…You get used to it by the 2nd year. Try not to arrive with a black car and a black interior! If you can’t find things to do here, that would be your fault. Lots to do for EVERY age. Town is really kid friendly, altho folks your age coming to party here on the weekends (like there are no rules or laws here) do tend to write crap about LHC as they feel they are entitled to violate laws here. Those are the folks who write bad. I have lived here since 2002. Costs to BUY a house are incredibly low. What was $275k in 2006 is now $120k. Email me if you like.

To add a little more: Parker is about 30 miles to the south, and Kingman is about 60 miles to the north. There really wouldn’t be any attraction to those towns if you had a job in Havasu that lets you afford $800 a month rent. They are cheaper…but you’d lose it in time and gas. Flying, as you likely found out, is either to/from Phoenix or Las Vegas. About 150 mile trip. I prefer Vegas due to fares and ease of getting in and out of the airport. Phoenix traffic sux. Taxes in AZ are pretty low, too…both income and property taxes. Needles, CA (45 miles away) has no redeeming feature….dirty and expensive. Use 86403 as a zip code and you can see the grocery prices here. Milk varies thru the year and is high right now at $2.00 a gallon. Low last fall was $1.50-$1.67. Gas is currently $2.599…and you can get up to 15 cents off by buying from $30 to $90 worth of groceries.

I have to find out if it will be snowing.

Pretty much no way to have any certainty until at least a week better hand. You can go to:

and purchase their premier service for $8 for one month. They will then give you forecasts far in advance (instead of the normal 10-days), but I’ve found these things continualy change as the date approachs. They have a reasonable base right now, so even if it isn’t snowing on that day, there should still be snow around at Snowbowl and up the mountain.
