    Here's the second part of the stockhouse article on Wonarah.
    I left out the tables, but they're all on the link page at the top of the thread post I did.

    THE SPA OPTION

    This is conceptually preferred, as it has significantly lesser capital and operating costs, greater NPV and IRR, and could produce a readily marketable and superior product to merchant grade phosphoric acid ("MGA").

    However, before that development route can be selected, JDCPhosphate Inc ("JDC"), the holder of the patent for the IHP, must prove its ability to produce at commercial scale. JDC is raising capital to construct and operate a Demonstration Plant in Florida and aims to have it completed around the end of 2012. Minemakers owns 6.67% of JDC and holds the sole Australian rights to the IHP technology for a term of 7 years.

    Under this development scenario, Minemakers would undertake relatively simple beneficiation on site and also construct the IHP kilns at Wonarah. The SPA would be taken in tankers by road to near Tennant Creek and would then be railed to the export port of Darwin, or to southern Australian markets.

    Asia currently imports over 3Mt of P2O5 as acid, and demand is anticipated to increase.

    The Study uses an SPA price of US$1,000/t.

    THE DAP/MAP OPTION

    In this alternative, a more conventional processing route would be taken. After mining, the ore would be beneficiated on site and then transported via a slurry pipeline to a factory site adjacent to the railway in the vicinity of Tennant Creek.

    Sulphuric acid would be manufactured from the burning of imported sulphur, and the phosphate slurry and the acid would be used to manufacture MGA by the usual wet acid process ("WAP").

    Imported ammonia would then be used to make N-P fertilisers such as MAP and DAP.

    The Study used a DAP price of US$600/t.

    FUTURE WORK

    Minemakers believes that the results of the Study justify the ongoing commitment to a full FS.

    NON-IFRS MEASURES

    Minemakers included the non-IFRS measures NPV and IRR in this press release, as presented in the Study. Each term is defined in full in the Study and reference should be had thereto. Minemakers believes that these measures provide investors with an improved ability to evaluate the technical information presented. Non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS. Therefore they may not be comparable to similar measures employed by other companies. The data is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

    For further information on the Wonarah Project, the Study and further assumptions and qualifications please refer to the Minemakers' technical report pursuant to NI 43-101 entitled "Preliminary Economic Assessment for Wonarah Phosphate Project, Northern Territory, Australia", dated September 2012 and available on the Minemakers' website and www.sedar.com.

Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "seek", "anticipate", "believe", "plan", "estimate", "expect" and "intend" and statements that an event or result "may", "will", "should", "could" or "might" occur or be achieved and other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are subject to business and economic risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results of operations to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

    In accordance with JORC Code Clause 18, with respect to future exploration of the phosphatic target zone, the potential quantity and grade of any discovery conceptual in nature, there is insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in determination of a Mineral Resource.
