Hi Henster,

IMO a relationship between MNM and exergen has been in the mind of IK all along and so I don't think you have anything to worry about... I have enclosed a summary of IK's past, and most importantly read the bit that mentions Thiess and Exergen...


Ian R. Kraemer – BSc, MSc, F AusIMM
Mr Kraemer has an extensive background in the resources sector with over 20 years
professional experience in the exploration, acquisition, construction and operation of
diverse mining projects in the coal and gold sectors.
Prior to involvement in Mantle Mining, Mr Kraemer worked for 8 years as Business
Development Manager with Thiess. In that capacity he was responsible for
acquisitions and for underground mining project design, development and
operational takeover. Most recently he held the position of Project Director
responsible for the development and commercialisation of clean coal technology
company Exergen, reporting directly to the Chairman of Thiess.
Mr Kraemer first commenced his mining career in 1980 as a cadet Coal Mine
Manager in Queensland. During the following 8 years he held various line
management positions culminating in the appointment of Relieving Underground
Coal Mine Manager at Moura. In 1987, Ian left Moura and relocated to the USA
where he completed Batchelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Mining Engineering at
Columbia University in NYC. He then accepted the position of Director Operational &
Strategic Planning for Pittston Coal & Minerals (15 coal mines in USA and 2 metal
mines in Australia) followed by a transfer back to Australia as Director Australasian
