AIM IS MASSIVE, HUGE DEPOSITS IN AFRICA. PERKOA IS ONE OF THE RICHEST ZINC DEPOSITS ON THE PLANET!

FOR THOSE INTERESTED IN THE INTERESTS OF AIM, PLEASE READ ON:

The recent announcement has caused a stir on the ASX, 90 mio volume in one day. So what is that makes this company one of the next biggest resource stocks?

Recent announcement, 90 Mio Volume.
> 655 Metre Copper Intersection at Mumbwa

- JOINT VENTURE WITH BHP BILTON TO EXPLORE THE MUMBWA COPPER-GOLD PROJECT IN ZAMBIA

-OWNS 100% OF THE MOKOPANE NICKEL-PLATINIM PROJECT ON THE BUSHVELD COMPLEX SOUTH AFRICA.

BUT, THE ABOVE ISN'T THE COMPANIES MOST PRIZED ASSET.

THEIR MOST PRIZED ASSET IS THE PERKOA ZINC MINE IN BURKINA FASO, WHICH IS PROGRESSING TOWARDS BECOMING THE FIRST ZINC MINE IN SOUTH AFRICA.

PERKOA DISCOVERED IN 1970, IS A VOLCANOGENIC MASSIVE SULPHIDE ZINC DEPOSIT IN THE SAME BELT THAT HOSTS THE PROLIFIC GHANAIAN GOLD DEPOSITS FURTHER TO THE SOUTH

'IT IS EXPECTED TO PRODUCE AROUND 70,000 TONNES OF ZINC A YEAR, YES 70,000 TONNES OF ZINC A YEAR, AND THE COMPANY IS WELL ON THE WAY TO HAVING ITS FIRST CONCENTRATE DELIVERD IN EARLY 2008 - 7 MONTHS AWAY! IN FEBRUARY THE COMPANY WON FINAL GOVERNMENT APPROVAL TO GO AHEAD WITH THE MINE.

IF ZINC WAS AT $US3800 /t THEN:

70,000*3800 = $US 266 000 000 A YEAR!

THE RESERVE IS 6.3 MILLION TONNES AND A MIND HEAD GRADE OF 14.5% ZINC, WITH A LIFELINE OF 12 1/2 YEARS

$US 266 000 000 X 12 = 3 192 000 000 OVER 12 YEARS, IF ZINC PRICE WAS TO REMAIN AT $US3800 /t.

SOUNDS GREAT, SO WHAT ARE THE RISKS INVOLVED WITH THE PROJECT -

POLITICS/INFRASTRUCTURE: THE GOVERNMENT HAS PLAYED A MAJOR PART IN THE SUCCESS OF AIM. THEY HAVE FAST TRACKED THE PERKOA DEVELOPMENT, AND ARE KEEN TO EMULATE THE SUCCESS OF GHANA, IN RAPIDLY DEVELOPING AN ACTIVE SUCCESSFUL MINING SECTOR

LOCATION: THE MINE IN PERKOA IS 1000KM FROM PORT, WHICH IS A LONG WAY TO TRANSPORT HIGH GRADE ZINC, BUT AIM IS FORTUNATE TO HAVE A RAILWAY LINE, 30 KM FROM THEIR PROJECT. CURRENTLY AIM ARE IN DISCUSSION WITH A GROUP FROM FRANCE, WHO ARE THE LARGEST LOGISTICS COMPANY IN AFRICA, TO DO THEIR TRANSPORTATION.

AIM ARE ALSO PUTTING TOGETHER AN EXPLORATION PRGRAM TO DELINEATE MORE ZINC IN THE AREA. THIS PROJECT WILL CONTINUE TO GO FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH.

NOT ONLY ARE AIM LOOKING AT THE RICHEST ZINC DEPOSITS ON THE PLANET, BUT AIM HAVE SET UP A FOUNDATION IN AFRICA TO HELP THE LIVES OF THE COMMUNITY - NANTOU FOUNDATION.

FOR THOSE WHO WITNESSED KZL AND ZFX RISE LAST YEAR, THEN DO YOU WANT TO MISS OUT ON THIS ONE?

BEST OF LUCK.
