Anchor Resources Ltd - ASX Announcement 10 March 2010 2
Background
Anchor holds 100% of the Bielsdown Project (EL 6388), located 40km west of Coffs Harbour, which includes the old Wild Cattle Creek antimony mine and Jezebel prospect.

First production from the mine was in the late 1800s, with mining and exploration undertaken intermittently since that time.

Historically, drilling has been carried out in three phases, during the 1960s and mid 1990s, followed by Anchor"s first campaign in 2009.
following its 2009 drill campaign, Anchor upgraded the JORC compliant resource estimate for the Wild Cattle Creek antimony deposit to 880,000t at 2.0% Sb (contained metal 17,500t) using a 0.5% Sb cutoff grade (ASX announcement dated 23 November 2009).

This resource was classified as "inferred" by SRK Consulting.
Antimony Price
Anchor"s belief in the long term prospects for the antimony market is supported by strong global antimony prices.

Although antimony prices weakened in the beginning of 2009, prices have subsequently pushed towards record highs.

It recently traded at around US$3.03/lb (or ~US$6,650/t), compared to spot copper trading around US$3.20/lb.
What is antimony?
Stibnite (Sb2S3) is the main ore mineral of the element antimony (Sb).

Antimony ores are beneficiated and processed into antimony metal or oxide.

Antimony mine production is concentrated very heavily in China (91 % of world output in 2008).

Antimony is primarily used as an enhancer of flame retardants or a hardening and strengthening agent for lead and zinc alloys.

These alloys are used in lead storage batteries, solder, sheet and pipe metal, bearings, castings, ammunition and pewter, particularly for use in wet-cell batteries.
