Today's NR has established the connection between good promotion and the fact that the hiring of a person is a key position with an excellent resume speaks volumes for the company's potential going foward. The last couple of paragraphs (dealing with a bulk sample) is significant enough to constitute a NR all on it's own. Do we have a good feeling on this one? NAR appoints Reeves director of metallurgy NAR Resources Ltd NRL Shares issued 7,838,202 Aug 15 close $2.66 Wed 16 Aug 2000 News Release Mr. George Elliott reports James W. Reeves has been appointed as the company's director of metallurgy. Mr. Reeves joins the company following a long and distinguished career at DuPont Corporation of Wilmington, Del. He is recognized as one of the world's leading authorities on titanium processing technologies. Mr. Reeves is presently co-ordinating and supervising all technical matters regarding the company's joint venture project with Titanium Corporation of Canada Ltd. Mr. Reeves will assume responsibility for the assessment of the titanium ore mineralogy, mineral processing, the process metallurgy and various economic evaluations. While at DuPont, Mr. Reeves developed metallurgical technologies to enhance the economic feasibility of titanium orebodies for use as pigment feedstocks. His early assignments at DuPont included the development of improved processes for chlorination of a wide range of titanium ores, the exploration for new ore deposits, their evaluation, and the development of ilmenite upgrading and waste processing technologies. During his last 15 years at DuPont, he was responsible for all titanium processing research and development related to DuPont's titanium chloride technology. Mr. Reeves was honoured by being made a DuPont fellow in 1990. Mr. Reeves holds 24 patents and is the author of 10 publications regarding his area of expertise. He is a member of the Metallurgical Society, the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, the Institution of Mining and Metallurgy, and the American Chemical Society. He was a member of the first National Materials Advisory Board panel embodied to address the long-term viability and global strength of the U.S. titanium metal industry. NAR Resources recently completed extracting a four-tonne bulk sample of heavy mineral concentrate from its extensive deposit located near Truro, N.S., Canada. Concentrate is currently being sent to the facilities of Hicom International in North Ryde, New South Wales, Australia, and to the Inprosys Lab in Golden, Colo., where evaluation and metallurgical bench scale work studies will begin. This enhanced mineral processing program includes grinding studies, gravity, magnetic and electrostatic separation of minerals, a magnetizing roast, and final evaluations of all mineral products. The program is designed to establish the most applicable processing method for maximum recovery of the different contained economic minerals. These results will assist the company in its continuing plant development. This deposit of titanium bearing heavy mineral sands extends approximately 69 square kilometres (27 square miles) along the Shubenacadie River northward to the eastern reaches of Cobequid Bay in Nova Scotia.
