All fifteen samples were found to contain high levels of metallic elements that are comparable to those contained in recent drill core analyses. Additionally, key hydrothermal mineralizing indicators such as boron and barium are highly enriched. A selection of elemental results are presented in the following table:

The samples were taken from 100% Marum property, Marum/International Tower Hill joint venture property and Marum/Micrex Joint venture property. The distribution of known mineralization in the layered volcaniclastic unit is now known to extend a distance of approximately 156km north to south, by approximately 35km east to west. It is likely that the mineralized area may extend another 30km westward. Over 85% of the mineralized horizon occurs on land controlled by Marum, the Marum/Micrex joint venture or the Marum/International Tower Hill joint venture. These new results define a large, layered, easily accessible mineralized volcaniclastic unit that has the potential to contain large tonnage mineral deposits. The next exploration step involves the identification of areas where the metal concentrations are high enough to be considered economic. ..>> Based on the VANADIUM element in the abouve last ( prior to ) NR we see the metals that are targeted...I also way below include a Geo Kimberlite site info on the dangers of Man Made Features interferring with the Maps, thus, with MMU, we do not have to worry about that. ceic.unsw.edu.au Message 10865367 Message 10865367 techstocks.com techstocks.com Message 10850469 Message 10850469 ceic.unsw.edu.au Map of OZ, They Mine Vanadaium there. ceic.unsw.edu.au Note The FUEL CELL comments are just too topical with all the current leaders in the field with years of reaseach and development head started: I E ..Others including DCHT, NUKE, Ballard Power...the list goes on: Research and Developments

Most scientific collaboration at Max Planck Institutes takes place in the form of single projects on fixed-term contracts, which are carried out by individual scientists, research groups or entire Institute divisions with partners at home and abroad.
Max Planck Institutes also participate in research projects and share facilities and programmes over the longer term at home and abroad.
Max Planck Institutes have also assumed coordinating and focusing functions in individual research programmes on a national and global scale. Moreover, the Max Planck Society also shares the operation and further development of large-scale facilities, research programmes, computer centres and database networks if required by research being conducted at its Institutes.
The Max Planck Society maintains Institutes of its own, which are dedicated to basic research. Their work covers a wide range of research areas selected from the biological and natural sciences as well as medicine and the arts and humanities.
Max Planck Institutes specialise in taking up new, particularly innovative fields of research which have no place as yet at universities or have not yet been gone into there in sufficient depth; as these research areas are interdisciplinary in character, they do not fit into the university organisation scheme, and they require much more personnel and more sophisticated facilities than the universities have at their disposal.
Max Planck Institutes, therefore, buttress university research. In some fields they have a particular area of concentration; in others they supplement research conducted at universities.
To gain new insights at the forefront of the process of acquiring knowledge, where research demands the highest competence and the greatest dedication, but also promises the highest yield in innovation - that is what is expected of Max Planck Institutes, that is what they achieve and that is why their reputation is so outstanding both at home and abroad.
Nowadays Max Planck Institutes are national or European 'centres of excellence' in basic research. They are distinguished by the following qualities:
Excellence is the decisive criterion when appointments are made and research projects are funded.
It is a basic principle that scientists may be appointed from outside and in many cases from abroad to fill executive positions.
The Institutes are, within the organisational framework established by the executive bodies of the Max Planck Society, "autonomous and independent" in the choice and fulfilment of their research commitments.
They have their own budgets to administer independently, which may be augmented by project funds granted by third parties.
Research results must be published. They are freely accessible to all.
The Institutes and their divisions are organised so that they can react flexibly to changes in research commitments and in the research environment.
Scientific projects and their results are monitored and evaluated at regular intervals by committees manned by professionals in their respective fields (Scientific Advisory Boards).
The Institutes collaborate in a great variety of ways with partners at home and abroad.
In order to keep the research it conducts dynamically up to date with the changing requirements of science, the Max Planck Society is continually venturing into new areas of research.
- by appointing outstanding scientists and scholars to work at existing Institutes, - by re-orienting divisions and Institutes at need and - by founding new Institutes.

Personal Profile: Chucka P.S.- Similar but different: go2net.newsalert.com Fuel Cell Electrode to be Developed Business Wire - June 28, 1999 12:15 VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 28, 1999-- Rhombic Corporation (OTC-BB-NUKE) announces that the company has accepted a second proposal from the University of Missouri to participate in a joint research plan to develop doped diamond electrodes and undoped diamond film for the hydrogen fuel cell market.
The doped diamond electrodes will be non-corrosive with the unique features of excellent thermal, chemical, and electrical conductive properties. Electrodes developed using boron doped diamond film will add efficiency to hydrogen fuel cells now being produced for automobiles, buses, and trucks.
Rhombic's management is currently reviewing three other "Forced Diffusion" projects for the future developed at the University's facilities.
-- Production of N-type diamond semi-conductor material for the computer, satellite, and communications markets.
-- Quality coloring of diamonds for the retail and wholesale markets.
-- The doping of diamond films for use in small solid state monitor/detectors that would be portable and useful in monitoring at nuclear power plants and waste sites, and to measure the rate and flow of newtrons produced by the Inertial Electrostatic Confinement (IEC) fusion devices and other commercial neutron producers.
Using its "Forced Diffusion" technology, Rhombic will begin July 1, 1999, at the University to purify polluting elements from silicon carbide and gallium nitride wafers. Reducing impurities in wafers will result in improved effectiveness with a longer wafer life span.
Rhombic also announces that Dr. Reinhard Hopfl of Germany, represented Rhombic Corporation's nuclid battery at the Geneva, Switzerland June 12 and June 13, 1999 summit meeting of International Computer and Communications. Dr. Hopfl reported back to Rhombic his many contacts in the satellite business.

gedco.com INTRODUCTION
The high frequency (short wavelength) content of high resolution aeromagnetic (HRAM) data consists of several components: cultural noise generated by near surface man-made objects, aircraft noise and signal generated by geology. These components overlap, distorting the geological signal, and in some cases, noise completely dominates the high frequency components of the spectrum. The high frequency geological signal can be a very important component of HRAM data, particularly when interpreting data from sedimentary basins or data associated with shallow mineral targets such as kimberlites. The short wavelength geological signal in a sedimentary basin is often associated with intra-sedimentary faults that can provide conduits for fluid movement within the basin and hence hydrocarbon migration pathways.
Noise generated from culture is randomly distributed within the HRAM data and often has the same magnetic characteristics (high frequency, short wavelength and often low amplitude) as signals generated from subtle geological features. Therefore, it is difficult to separate these two components using conventional digital filters. Furthermore, sharp anomalies related to wellheads or other culture are actually broad band in their frequency content, even though they appear to be high frequency. If such spikes are not culturally edited, the low frequency component of each spike will appear as a subtle low frequency feature in filtered versions of the data which are designed to image deep targets.
The effect of cultural noise is also illustrated on the power spectrum plots of the total magnetic field for the HRAM data prior to cultural editing (Figure 1a). It is evident in Figure 1a that the noise dominates the high frequency components of the spectrum. Also note the high frequency spikes in the radial power spectrum of Figure 1 and how they have clearly disappeared after manual cultural editing (Figure 1b). Any effort to remove or suppress cultural noise from HRAM data should attempt to keep the geological signal intact. The overlap between these signals often prevents this from happening, particularly when an automatic method is used to locate and remove the noise. In regions where the objectives of the HRAM survey are deep targets, the removal of short wavelength geological features may not be detrimental to the interpretation. However, removal of short wavelength geological features in areas where the objectives are shallow targets could be very detrimental for the interpretation.
METHODOLOGY
Several techniques for locating and removing or suppressing cultural noise are now discussed. The three methods considered in this paper are: 1) manual; 2) semi-automatic; and 3) automatic. In all three cases the data should be relevelled after cultural editing.
