NEW YORK, April 7, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Wall Street Reporter has posted exclusive video interviews with CEOs from International PBX Ventures Ltd. (TSX-V:PBX), Beartooth Platinum Corp. (TSX-V:BTP), and Maximus Ventures Ltd. (TSX-V:MXV), companies poised to exploit tempting deposits of platinum, gold, molybdenum, and other hot commodities.
Investors can watch or download the interviews, along with additional content recorded in Toronto at the 2008 Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada convention, at www.WallStreetReporter.com.
International PBX Ventures Ltd. (TSX-V:PBX) has a flagship molybdenum-copper project in Chile that offers "excellent" potential nestled "amongst some of the giants," says CEO George Sookochoff. "We have very similar structure and geology."
Highlights of the interview:
-- Discussion of the significant resource (close to 400 million tons of
moly and nearly 900 million pounds of copper) already identified on
the site.
-- An update on drilling on a "fantastic" second property, where
chasing narrow vertical gold veins has led to what could be a large
well-defined ore body.
-- Notes on a third property, acquired in the belief it might host a
porphyry copper-gold deposit. "We're very excited about that."
Beartooth Platinum Corp. (TSX-V:BTP) is operating in the heart of both of the world's top platinum districts, South Africa's Bushveld and Canada's Stillwater. CEO Michael Johnson has plenty of updates for WSR on the company's 14,000-acre Stillwater property in particular. "We feel we have a good address here," he says. "Every hole intercepted platinum-palladium mineralization."
Highlights of the interview:
-- More detail on the "very exciting, very interesting" results coming
out of Stillwater. "This certainly has some very high grades."
-- An overview of the Stillwater platinum camp's world-class reputation
and potential.
-- Management's track record of putting a number of mines into
production in the past.
Maximus Ventures Ltd. (TSX-V:MXV) is working on three gold properties with potential ranging from "major" to "world-class," and CEO Francois Viens tells WSR: "At the end of the year, hopefully, we should be in position to have some resources."
Highlights of the interview:
-- Why Mr. Viens is optimistic about having mining giant Newmont as a
venture partner after its acquisition of previous JV partner
Miramar.
-- Ambitious plans to do 43,000 meters of drilling this year.
-- The tempting near-term proposition currently posed by one of the
company's assets in particular, a dormant Idaho underground mine
that "should be low capital cost" and "a very rich gold producer."
