Mongolia to be Transformed into a Nation of Shareholders

Apr. 1 (2point6billion) – As was predicted by Chris Devonshire-Ellis in his recent article Putting the Wolf to Work – Reform in the Mongolian Economy, the government of Mongolia has stated today that every citizen is indeed an owner of the state-owned Erdenes TT deposit, and that shares in this will be distributed to every citizen. The format will be as follows:

·         Each Mongolian (2,796,341 citizens) will receive 536 shares, 1.5 billion shares will be divided

·         Strategic deposits will be put into production in stages and profits from natural resources will be distributed in fair, equal and inclusive manner to every citizen

·         The exact price of the share will be determined at the time of the global IPO of Erdenes TT

·         To protect citizens from risk, citizens will not be permitted to sell shares until price of shares have stabilized in a realistic manner after extraction and coal exports stabilize; paved roads, railroads, and power supply are resolved; and construction of CHPP started

·         The GOM will regularly inform about the process of putting TT into production in order to make it transparent, open and understandable

·         However, citizens being shareholders must be responsible themselves and exercise supervision, this possibility will be opened to each citizen/shareholder, mistakes of past privatization will not be repeated

·         State and government will pay attention to knowledge and education of citizens/shareholders about capital market and citizens/shareholders should do their best as well

·         The TT project will be developed as a model for future projects

·         Distribution of TT shares will be organized by the State Property Committee, State Registration Agency, Central Depositary of Securities Payments and Clearances and Labor, Welfare and Service Agency. Record of share ownership is to be made at the Human Development Fund record book for each citizen

·         The next step (of many to be done) is the selection of investor and contractor, preparation of technical and economic justification (related to feasibility study) and IPO on MSE and international stock exchange

These steps will effectively make every Mongolian citizen a wealthy individual and, if successful, may well be extended to the sharing in a similar manner of other state owned assets.

Voyager Resources in pre-open pending capital raising announcement

March 31 (Proactive Investors) Voyager Resources (ASX: VOR) has been granted a trading halt by the ASX pending an announcement on a 'significant' capital raising.

The company did not elaborate on where the potential new inflow of funds will be allocated, but Voyager did acquire a highly prospective copper gold project in Mongolia in December last year.

Voyager acquired 100% of the Khongor Copper Gold Porphyry Project, located in the World Class Oyu Tolgoi Copper Belt of the South Gobi Province.

Early diamond core drilling shows extensive zones of mineralisation, with results including:

- 50 metres at 1.0% copper and 0.3 grams per tonne (g/t) gold from 64 metres; and
- 70.3 metres at 0.7% copper and 0.2g/t gold from surface.

Surface trenching identified:

- 18 metres at 1.33% copper and 0.32g/t gold; and
- 18 metres at 1.84% copper and 0.43g/t gold.

Khongor has a mineralised strike length of over one kilometre, identified from geological mapping and sampling, which Voyager said is broadly coincidental with a large induced polarisation chargeability anomaly that extends for over 1,600 metres by 380 metres.

Voyager also recently received two ASX 'speeding tickets' for share price spikes.

Mongolia May Store Region's Spent Nuclear Fuel, Senior U.S. Official Says

March 31 (Global Security Newswire) WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration has held informal talks with Mongolia about the possibility that the Central Asian nation might host an international repository for its region's spent nuclear fuel, a senior U.S. diplomat said yesterday (see GSN, March 9, 2010).

U.S. Energy Department officials and their counterparts in Ulaanbaatar, the Mongolian capital, are in the early stages of discussion and there has been no determination yet about whether to proceed with the idea, according to Richard Stratford, who directs the State Department's Nuclear Energy, Safety and Security Office.

Energy Department officials traveled to Mongolia last fall for meetings on the matter, according to Mark Hibbs, a senior associate with the Nuclear Policy Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. He chaired the discussion on nuclear cooperation.

"It was a fruitful discussion," Hibbs told GSN yesterday. "They went into some details [but] it was very exploratory."

New MPRP Seeks Supreme Court Registration

April 1 (UB Post) The Supreme Court of Mongolia will hopefully register the newly-formed MPRP as the 18th political party in the country, said Ts. Shinebayar, MPRP’s Deputy Chairman. 

The Supreme Court did not reject the MPRP’s application for registration in the given legal deadline, which means the MPRP should automatically be registered, he stressed.

According to the law on political parties, the Supreme Court must decide a political party’s application for registration within thirty business days. “The deadline is over and what we know is our application is not rejected” said Shinebayar. 

We will intensify our activities and open branches in rural provinces” he concluded.

At the end of 2010, few members of Mongolian People’s Party, then-Mongolian People’s Revolutionary Party, left their old party and formed their own party.

One of them was well-known political figure of the country N.Enkhbayar, who is ex-president of Mongolia and ex-chairman of today’s MPP.

FACTBOX-Key political risks to watch in Mongolia

BEIJING, April 1 (Reuters) - Remote and landlocked Mongolia sits on vast quantities of untapped mineral wealth, and foreign investment in a number of gigantic mining properties is expected to transform its tiny economy in the next decade.

Analysts say it could become one of the world's fastest growing economies and it is already a key investment target for resources giants like Rio Tinto and Peabody Energy .

Mongolia aims to become a major force in the regional coal market by developing the billion-dollar Tavan Tolgoi or "Five Hills" mine, the world's biggest untapped deposit of its kind.

Erdenes MGL, the mine's operator, has chosen banks to list the eastern part of property in the first half of next year, and a shortlist of investors for the western section has also been drawn up, including consortia from Japan and South Korea as well as Peabody, Xstrata and ArcelorMittal . [ID:nL3E7E70CI]

The $6 billion Oyu Tolgoi project, jointly owned by Toronto-listed Ivanhoe Mines , Rio Tinto and the Mongolian government, will be the world's biggest copper mine outside top producer Chile once full operation starts in 2013.

Following is a summary of key Mongolia risks to watch:
