Gordon,
Here's the ASX statement.
I would have copy & pasted in the text except they've done it as a graphic.

There have also been rumours of a merger between Consolidated Minerals and Portman Mining, so it may be related to that.

I know they bought about 14% of CSM. But would expect CSM to also have trade halted if there was to be a merger? Barry did state in a recent interview that it was not being considered.
The buyers and sellers don't seem to be pushing the price in any direction so whatever the announcement is is has been kept quiet very well, not usual for the Australian market.
They had cash at the end of June so don't think it will be a placement but have been stung thinking that before.
The feasibility study was due to be completed in October so it may have been completed earlier and found an anomaly. But it is all guess work.

A great article on Portman and the recent falling out, explains a lot about self-interest and the goings on in takeovers: http://www.smh.com.au/news/Alan-Kohler/Portman-plays-easy-to-get-while-iron-ores-not/2005/03/01/1109546872373.html

Looking very good at the moment.:bowser:
1. 30% Increase in production going to schedule for 2006.
2. UBS spruiking a 10% hike in the price of iron ore
3. Iron Ore will be the profit centre for the mining industry (UBS, again)
4. PMM controlled by US pellet producer Cleveland Cliffs, which gives PMM access to US markets, in addition to current China deals.
Currently trading on it's 52 week high, of 4.61

PMM is looking pretty good value to me atm. EPS of 17.2 cents for the QTR, and looking pretty close ot hitting the ellusive produciton target of 8mta for FY07. So assuming they maintain production levels... EPS of 68c for the year, PE ~7.2x Of course. with a 10% increase in Fe prices next year (as negioated by CVRD) oculd well be higher than that...
What is bugging me though is that a) there is no annual report for FY06 on their wbsite- which strcuk me as kinda odd.
& b) there is no reference made to their mining reserves. 7x PE ratio is not great if they have a mine life of 4 years at Koolyanoobing.
No posts in 15 months, I can't imagine that too many holders out ther in the ASF.

Etrade said it could be taken over soon by Cleveland for the rest of stocks.

Haha... look how much sweeter stocks sail when I don't tip them in the comp!!! PMM was my pick for Jan & Mar... nada.
Has broken out pretty sweetly from its 12mth downtrend. Reasonable QTRly- increased revenue was partially offset by increases COGS, but ultimately still increase of Sales margin.
Production at Koolyanobbing still a touch shy of 8Mtpa (1.77Mt for the QTR is getting pretty close though...) $133 mill the bank- time to pay a dividend you tightwads!

Not much volume to support todays rise, but that's what you get when there are only 8 sell orders and one of them is for $9.

Anyone any idea of the real significance of the Polaris announcement today saying that PMM have no longer any mining rights on their tenements?
Got to think that if the rights were that important/ commercially viable wouldn't PMM have exercised them by now?
Any thoughts?

I've had Portman for a fair while, added here n there.
Technically they look as if they could be about to commence a major move up again.
They rose from their recent trading range of about $4.50-$5 in March to a high of $12 in July , retraced approx 62% from the high of $12 in July/Aug to about $7 They are now testing their high again of $12.
The latest slump in August may have been the end of a wave 2 and if they keep on going $20 is not out of the question.
They are tightly held, Cleveland Cliffs and AMP a blocking holding, and us two!!\\

They paid a good div until Cleveland Cliffs tried to take em over. CC are an iron ore/steel company in the US.They only received about 80-85% acceptances. AMP took a blocking stake. I didn't take up their offer at the time. It was when iron ore was out of fashion, BHP etc were about $20 or under.
Now that they have majority control there is no point in giving a div as it will only encourage folk to stay in the stock.
I feel recent action could be related to a better offer coming from CC for PMM.
As long as AMP stay with their blocking stake CC cannot mop up the rest of us.

Its been on a nice role now, with the bulls stronger than the bears over each of the last 8 consecutive days! However, volume appears to be falling, perhaps its little run is about to finish.........
Still, great growth potential and strong return on equity.
Any thoughts on this one lately?

So Portman takes a 10% stake in GWR !
Anyone got any thoughts on this?
Could they maybe looking to block the takeover by Fairstar?
I reckon the ANZ has done a deal perhaps with Portman seen as some shares where involved with opus fiasco :confused:
