Oil Services Stock Alert : Raptor (OTCQB: RRHI) Signs M.O.U. with Major Oilfield Service Provider for API Grade Barite Utilized in the Oil & Gas Well Drilling Sector

FREEHOLD, N.J. - May 8, 2012 (Investorideas.com Newswire) - Raptor Resources Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: RRHI), announces today the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with one of the world’s oilfield service giants. The MOU lays the groundwork for a long-term purchase agreement between both companies. Once in full production, the company estimates it will ship 220,000 tons/year against the 2M tons listed in the MOU. The MOU provides exclusive rights to the customer for all API (American Petroleum Institute) barite applications.

The Gulf of Mexico, home to the largest concentration of active rigs world-wide consumed up to 5M tons of bulk barite during CY2010 with the major contributors being China (3.6M tons) and India (1M tons). Barite is used as a weighting agent during drilling to reduce the formation pressures preventing well blowouts. API Grade bulk barite prices referenced in Industrial Minerals’ March 2012 commodity price list averaged $144/ton based on FOB China and FOB India conditions representing a 48% price increase since August 2011.

The company is also in early stage discussions with non-API customers to provide a combined total of 110,000 tons/year of the company’s premium barite for applications in the Paint, Automotive, Medical and Plastic/Rubber sectors. Pure Barium Sulfate (BaSO4) has a specific gravity of 4.5. Dodge Mine samples tested by the University of Zimbabwe in late 2011 documented the company’s white barite at 97.25% and the pink barite at 95.5% pure Barium Sulfate (BaSO4). With bright white barite during the 1st Qtr. commanding a price premium in the order of $225/ton, the company’s business model, once at full capacity, represents 330,000 tons/year taking optimum advantage of the high percentage of superior grade barite deposits at Dodge Mine to support non-API applications.

Dodge Mine is a world class, hydrothermal mountain range covering 305 acres. The barite deposits are 100% recoverable compared to certain barite mines in Nevada that are rated 45% recoverable. The company was proactive to recently acquire an additional 1235 acres along the mountain range bringing the total property size to 1540 acres. The company recently started a gravity mapping program to identify all mineral/metal types on the Dodge Mine property with first priority being barite anticipating a mineral/metal composite of probable/proven reserves. The gravity mapping program is targeting completion this June.

Al Pietrangelo, President & CEO of Raptor Resources Holdings Inc., stated, "The short term delay in alluvial surface gold mining was a bold move to aggressively secure Dodge Mine and surrounding property that should benefit the shareholders for years to come. As we move into production to generate revenue from the mineral/metal assets of Dodge Mine along with our intent to start alluvial gold production the second half of this year, we anticipate the combined revenue from both business units will create sustaining shareholder value on both fronts over the next 18 months."

The company is in early stage discussions with industry experts to vertically integrate certain stand alone minerals and blended minerals for value added revenue opportunities as well as continuing to target new mineral assets to compliment the company’s portfolio of mineral/metal assets.

Mr. Pietrangelo further stated, "This is a very exciting time for Raptor Resources Holdings Inc. Since the change of control of the parent company was effectuated last May, 2011, management has tirelessly sought out many opportunities for and on behalf of our shareholders." He added, "This is just the beginning of the many events that are expected to unfold, which we firmly believe will lead us to a strong profitable future."

Mining News: Raptor Resources Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: RRHI) Initiates Gravity Mapping Program at Dodge Mine

FREEHOLD, N.J. - May 7, 2012 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks newswire) Raptor Resources Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: RRHI) is pleased to announce that the gravity mapping program of Dodge Mine (Shamva, Zimbabwe) has started. With outstanding recommendations from barite geologist experts, the company has solicited the services of MWH GEO-Surveys Ltd. (http://www.mwhgeo.com/). Kevin MacNabb, owner/operator recently completed a pre-site survey of Dodge Mine to ensure the gravity mapping parameters of the hydrothermal mountain range are optimized to capture the multiple barite lenses across the property with additional recommendations to identify a variety of mineral/metal deposits.

Dodge Mine is classified as an Irregular Ore Body with close-spaced veinlets cutting the host rock and forming an intercalated network of cylindrical or cap-like deposits cutting across geological boundaries. Prior drilling reports identified barite, limestone/marble and talc. Of key interest is the documented widespread occurrences of gossans deposits indicating a massive undeveloped sulphide deposit often associated with gold, nickel, copper and lead. The presence of these metabasalt often point to gold in the host rock. Both local and international geologists have confirmed that the Dodge Mine barite deposits are world class, contain very high percentages of pure Barium Sulfate (BaSO4) and 100% recoverable.
Kevin MacNabb, owner/operator of MWH Geo-Surveys Ltd. stated, "These are exciting times for junior mining companies like Raptor Resources Holdings Inc. as I have watched firsthand the dramatic impact to shareholder value with successful gravity mapping programs performed for other mining companies in Africa." He further stated, "The pre-site survey was paramount in setting the optimum profile configuration for gravity mapping the Dodge Mine to address the unique features of their hydrothermal mountain range property."
Al Pietrangelo, President and CEO of Raptor Resources Holdings Inc. added, "We are excited to begin the mapping program teamed with highly acclaimed MWH Geo-Surveys Ltd and would like to thank Kevin for being proactive to personally assist us during the pre-site survey. With their state of the art Aliod 100X micro-gal gravity meters and GPS data loggers utilizing proprietary G Control software exclusive to the company, we look forward to sharing the data with our most prized resource of all, our shareholders."

TSX Mining News: SilverCrest (SVL.V) (STVZF.PK) Reports 127.4m @ 65.6 gpt Ag Eq(i) at La Joya Expands Main Mineralized Trend to Northeast and Southwest

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - May 7, 2012 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks newswire) SilverCrest Mines Inc. (SVL.V) (STVZF.PK) (STVZF.PK) (the "Company") is pleased to announce the results of a further 16 holes of the Phase II drill program currently underway at its La Joya Property in Durango, Mexico. The Phase II program comprises an estimated 80 holes totaling approximately 15,000 metres. Phase II drilling to date has extended the Main Mineralized Trend ("Trend") an additional 500 meters to the northwest beyond the area of the current resource of 101.9 million ounces Ag Eq.(i) (see News release dated March 20, 2012). New results show the Trend expanding an additional 200 metres to the northeast and 100 metres to southwest with the average width increasing from 500 to approximately 700 metres along a strike length of 2,500 metres (see attached figure: here). Please reference our website at www.silvercrestmines.com for more information, photos and figures on La Joya.

J. Scott Drever, President stated: "In January we announced an initial Inferred Resource in a portion of the Trend of 57.9 million tonnes grading 28 gpt Ag, 0.18 gpt Au and 0.21% Cu and containing 101.9 million ounces Ag Equivalent(i). We have since drilled 23 holes as a part of the second phase of drilling that have successfully expanded mineralization in all lateral directions with the possible expansion of the resource along the Trend. We have begun to drill the area to the southeast of the declared resource which, based on previous historic drilling and our surface sampling results, is expected to host the most attractive mineralized portion of the Trend".
These further 16 holes have partially tested the eastern and western margins of the northern end of the Trend and have provided in-fill information within the resource area. Silver values range from 2.6 gpt to 255.7 gpt and on a silver equivalent(i) basis values range from 24.0 gpt to 445.6 gpt Ag Eq. Mineralized intervals range from 3.5 metres to 127.4 metres. True thicknesses of mineralized intercepts can be approximated from previously announced drill holes in associated areas and cross-sections. The most significant assay results are shown in the following table;
All sample analyses were completed by ALS Chemex in Zacatecas, Mexico and North Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Holes L J DD12-40 and L J DD12-41 have identified additional mineralization along the Contact Zone which had been previously drilled and defined as mineralization near the contact of Cretaceous sediments and underlying quartz feldspar porphyry stock and dykes. The Contact Zone is exposed at surface and in this area has a northwest-southeast strike approximately one and a half kilometer long with semi-massive to massive sulfide mineralization (primarily chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite) immediately adjacent to contacts. This type of mineralization is similar to that of the nearby producing Penoles' Sabinas Mine.
Holes L JDD12-44 to 48 have identified additional mineralization in the Northeast portion of the Trend previously identified as the "Esperanza" target. This mineralization is similar to previously defined mantos, structures/stockwork and the Contact Zone although the mantos and structures appear to be fewer in number and somewhat deeper than in the central section of the Trend. Further drilling in this area is required to better define near surface mineralization.
Core samples for holes L J DD12-49 to L J DD12-52 are currently in the laboratory being analyzed. The program is currently drilling at hole L JDD12-53 located on the south central part of the Trend. Assays for the next series of holes will be reported upon receipt and compilation. Several holes contain anomalous molybdenum, tungsten, lead and zinc values over significant widths in the skarn. The significance of these associated mineral zones is being examined.
The Phase II 80 hole drill program is expected to test approximately 2.5 kilometres of the Trend that includes at least the 8 near-vertical structures/stockwork zones, 14 near-horizontally stacked mantos plus the Contact Zone adjacent to the underlying intrusive. Drilling on the southern extension of the Trend has commenced. Based on Company surface mapping, sampling and historic drill hole results, this area is thought to be potentially the highest grade area along the Trend.
The La Joya Deposit currently has estimated Inferred Resources of:
Please refer to the January 4, 2012 news release for further details of the Inferred Resource estimate and to the La Joya NI 43-101 Technical Report filed on www.Sedar.com
The Qualified Person under National Instrument (NI 43-101) Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects for this News Release is N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, and Chief Operating Officer for SilverCrest Mines Inc., who has reviewed and approved its contents.
SilverCrest Mines Inc. (SVL.V) (STVZF.PK) is a Mexican precious metals producer with headquarters based in Vancouver, BC. SilverCrest's flagship property is the 100%-owned Santa Elena Mine, which is located 150 km northeast of Hermosillo, near Banamichi in the State of Sonora, Mexico. The mine is a high-grade, epithermal gold and silver producer, with an estimated life of mine cash cost of US$8 per ounce of silver equivalent (55:1 Ag:Au). SilverCrest anticipates that the 2,500 tonnes per day facility should recover approximately 4,805,000 ounces of silver and 179,000 ounces of gold over the 6.5 year life of the open pit phase of the Santa Elena Mine. A three year expansion plan is underway to double metals production at the Santa Elena Mine and exploration programs are rapidly advancing the definition of a large polymetallic deposit at the La Joya property in Durango State.
