Cazaly Resources upgrades Resource at Mount Caudan to 33.6Mt at 56.1% iron

Cazaly Resources (ASX: CAZ) has upgraded the iron ore mineral resource estimate to 33.6 million tonnes (Mt) at 56.1% iron (Fe) for its 100% owned Parker Range Iron Project.

The Resource is now 70% in the Measured category and tighter geological control has resulted in a lower internal dilution and a higher overall grade than the June 2010 update.

The ore retains high value in use (VIU) properties  with ultra-low phosphorus content (~0.02% P). There is potential to upgrade the lower grade material and the regional project will be tested by an extensive  drill campaign in 2011.

Importantly, there is strong government support for key infrastructure. The project is located approximately 15 kilometres south-east of Marvel Loch and about 60 kilometres by road south of the Perth–Kalgoorlie railway near Southern Cross in the Yilgarn region of Western Australia.

The upgrade follows a program of infill drilling which is part of the Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) which is currently underway.

The company has also executed formal documentation for the leasing of the accommodation village at Marvel Loch and the rail load out facility at Moorine Rock.

Engineering and design work is ongoing and almost finalised and the company is awaiting details of its application for export allocation from the Fremantle Port Authority.

Cazaly is planning a regional exploration program later in 2011 and much potential remains in further expanding resources for the project as most of the 16km long BIF unit has yet to be explored.

The Customers are Coming! Now What?

When you launch a joint venture with another company, the idea is to build your business and bring in more customers, right?  What happens when you suddenly find yourself with an influx of customers?

While most business owners may be thinking that’s a problem they would like to have, it still can be a problem if you are not prepared for the increase in business. We have tips to help you prepare for the influx of business that could be the positive result of your joint venture efforts.

Get Your Staff On

If your joint venture efforts include a special promotion to attract new customers, you may find yourself overwhelmed with new business for a number of weeks. Make sure you are properly staffed for the increase, even if it means bringing on extra help for a short-term assignment. For those who can’t afford to hire extra personnel, automating many of your processes can help lighten the load for the employees you do have.

Stress Service

When businesses get busy, customer service is often one of the first assets to get sacrificed to the crowds. Make sure your staff understands that an increase in business is the perfect time to improve the service level, so all of these new customers come back for more.

Now is the time to provide additional training or incentives for your staff to ensure every customer that comes through your doors or clicks on your website has a satisfactory experience with your company.

Back Up Your Product

It isn’t unusual to run out of product when business suddenly increases. While you don’t want more inventory than you can sell, make sure you have a way to get additional merchandise expeditiously if it turns out there is a bigger demand than you expected. Drop shipping can be one option in these situations, although overnight delivery and additional suppliers are other choices worth considering.

Always Say Yes

When you have many new customers trying out your business for the first time, it’s important to be as accommodating as possible. Empower your employees to be able to say “yes” to most of your customers’ requests, even if it means bending the rules to keep them happy. Loyal customers are much more accepting of “no” answers from time to time than brand new customers.

Add Some Freebies

To entice those potential customers to buy from you, add some freebies to the initial order. It might be a free sample of a related products or a discount on their subsequent purchase. Keep in mind that Internet companies are a dime a dozen, so you might have to sweeten the pot to get a customer to do business with you, rather than the next company on the search engine.

Joint ventures are one of the most effective ways to increase your customer base, but you need to be prepared for those additional customers once they visit your business. With these tips in mind, you will be ready to handle that influx of potential customers, so newbies become loyal clients in no time at all.

Hawthorn Resources new drilling to follow-up high grade gold hits at Deep South

Hawthorn Resources (ASX: HAW) will target high grade gold shoots in new reverse circulation infill drilling at the Deep South joint venture in Western Australia.

Hawthorn holds an 80% stake, with big player Alacer Gold (TSX: ASR) holding the remaining 20%.

Drilling will follow up the previously reported highlights of; 5 metres at 7.05 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, 7 metres at 3.06g/t gold, and 9 metres at 3.15g/t gold.

Hawthorn said the gold shoots are geologically similar to those identified and mined in the adjacent Deep South Mine owned by Saracen Mineral Holdings (ASX: SAR), and that the presence of numerous gold intercepts over a substantial strike tends to indicate a large mineralised system.
