Thanks Lexie, I thought this deserved a new thread.

The following IMO is part of Mantle's strategy of working towards an S7 tender. I am not sure who they intend(technology wise) to partner with for their tender but the below speil showing their experience in all things mining shows that they would go hand in hand with a tech Co who likely has little actual hands on mining experience or knowledge.

The mention of power generation caught my eye. Not sure of the back ground there. Anyone know the previous power generation experience of our management?

Mantle Mining

Mantle Mining Corporation Ltd is an ASX listed (MNM), diversified exploration and mine development company with an extensive portfolio of exploration projects in Queensland and Victoria.

Of these projects, two are brown coal projects in Victoria, those being located at Bacchus Marsh and the Latrobe Valley.

Mantle’s senior management have been directly involved in the Victorian brown coal industry for over 10 years and the Australian black coal industry for over 30 years.

Expertise in resource exploration, open cut and underground mining, power generation, engineering, coal handling and processing techniques, coal quality and utilisation places Mantle in a unique position to successfully implement processes for coal production and brown coal enhancement.

Mantle holds a number of tenements in both the Bacchus Marsh and Latrobe Valley regions and seeks to partner with brown coal enhancement technology companies to enable development of these resources in a sustainable and environmentally friendly manner.

The products of these enhancement processes are initially aimed at both the export market and the domestic power generation market.

Martin Blakeman was an executive manager for these guys before forming Mantle -

The above linked technology would go very well with Mantle's deep black coal seams at either LV or accessing below the Mesa at Mt Mull IMO.


We recently discovered we had Mark Maxwell working for Mantle -

I wonder who else Mantle have working behind the scenes we don't yet know about?
