Rochester Resources,die neue Silberrakete!!

Rochester "kommt von" 2 EUR (Okt. 2007)...  

Hab mir mal die Mühe gemacht, Rochester mal ein bisschen unter
die Lupe zu nehmen:

Die 9,7 Mio.$ Miese der 3 Quartale vor Feb.2009 sind natürlich nicht schön,
jedoch sind davon 8 Mio$ allein Abschreibungen und "Disposition der Interessen
an Tochtergesellsch." (kann das mal jemand erklären?).
Nicht unschuldig waren wohl auch die Probleme bei Penoles, an die Rochester
liefert. Diese Probleme sollten aber seit Anfang Mai gelöst sein,sodaß
man wieder von steigender Normalität und Produktivität ausgehen darf.

Fakt ist jedoch folgendes:

Lt. TSX-Info liegt der Buchwert bei $0,6 / Aktie, aktueller Kurs ca. 0,2 $ (Tatsache!)

Produziert ........... oz Gold .......... oz Silber ......... to verarb.
Durchnittl. Monat in 2008........... 357 ........... 5587 ........... 2770
Feb. 2009 .......... 280(-22%) .......... 8644(+54%) ............. 3407(+23%)
März 2009 .......... 303(-15%) ............ 39518(+607%) ............4105(+48%)
April 2009 .......... 230(-36%) ........... 45057(+706%) .............4477(+61%)

Der Goldgehalt des Gestein hat wohl abgenommen,dafür hat Silber ordentlich zugelegt.
Die Verarbeitungsmenge der Mühle von 2770 to auf 4477 im April 2009 bedeutet eine
Steigerung um 61%.

Schon ohne Steigerung der Mühle (nach den April-Daten) könnte Rochester bis Ende des Jahres
4600 oz Gold und 142.000 oz Silber produzieren, also ca. 5992 oz Gold eq,
(Gold 2x280+336+9x413, Silber 2x8644+10372+9x12757),
bei VK 900 Gold und 14 Silber -> ca. 6,1 Mio $ (100% mehr als 2008)

D.h. der nächste Quartalsbericht sollte wieder ca. 2000 Gold eq aufweisen
(im Vergleich zu den 3 Monaten Dez.2008-Ende Feb.2009).

Rochester ist ein Junior-Produzent und kein reiner Explorer mehr, hat
jedoch weit über 90% der MK eingebüßt.

Hat jemand noch Anregungen hier?
ICH würde übrigens erst mal den Gestalter der Homepage von Rochester und
den Verantwortlichen für eMail-Beantwortungen feuern...die Pappnasen ;-)

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Jan. 21, 2010) - Rochester Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: RCT.V)(FRANKFURT:R5I) is pleased to provide an update from President and CEO Eduardo Luna.

Dear Shareholders;

After my first year as President and CEO of Rochester Resources Ltd., I am pleased to provide an update of the Company's accomplishments and progress made at our Mina Real Project in Mexico over the past year.

We are now beginning to achieve real success and have shown continuous improvements in all aspects of our operations over the last four months. I believe that our projects have the potential to develop into a world class mining asset.

We have spent the past year reorganizing our operations and re-prioritizing our efforts. Some of the achievements made over this past year have been:

- Operations are cash flow positive

- Over the past four months, silver and gold production measured as gold equivalent ounces has steadily increased while production cost per equivalent ounce of gold has been decreasing

- Silver recovery has increased from 49% to 70% on average; once product concentration in the Falcon system is further refined, recovery rates could reach over 80%

- We have assembled a first rate team of Mexican operating, technical and administrative staff.

- Over 8km of drift development has been completed at Tajos Cuates and Florida

- A new filtering system for mine tailings has been installed which allows us to fully meet our environmental obligations now and in the future

- The systematic underground development of Tajos Cuates will facilitate the definition of ore resources and allow longer term production planning

The Company recently announced the closing of a private placement of over $12.4 million which will be used to fund a systematic exploration and development program on the Company's two projects, Mina Real and Santa Fe.

We have two main objectives moving forward: firstly, to increase production to a level that will generate significant positive cash flow to allow Rochester to develop the entire district; and, secondly, but most importantly, to implement an aggressive exploration program consisting of both diamond drilling and drift development with the goal of generating significant NI 43-101 compliant resources from a number of sources.

Some of the key highlights of our 2010 work program will consist of:

Diamond drilling program:

- Planned 22000 metres of diamond drilling to be completed in 2010

- Approximately 5 km of access roads will be built to reach drill sites

- Approximately 15,000 samples will be taken and analyzed

Proposed Drifting Program:

- Florida: 2,530 m

- Tajos Cuates: 2,590 m

- Macedo: 1,550 m

- Mine infrastructure: 2,530 m

Regional geological studies:

- Systematic collection of more than 3,000 samples for geochemical analysis

- Continued structural studies by Dr. Tony Starling

- Regional geologic evaluation using satellite imaging technology

- A thorough program of Fluid Inclusions determinations to identify vectors within the vein structures towards most favourable areas for precious metal deposition

- Evaluation of geophysical techniques which may be applicable to assist in the regional exploration

Our first priority for exploration and development will be at Florida NW, where we have developed a crosscut to cut the continuity of the rich zones of the Florida I, II and III veins, NW from the intrusive. Florida NW has grades similar to those encountered in the Florida SE system. Expectations are that the potential average grade may be around 9 g/t gold and 250 g/t silver. We feel that this area will expose a number of faces and will enable us to increase our production accordingly.

Second, we will continue mining and development work at Tajos Cuates and Macedo, and will begin processing some of the higher grade mineralized material when additional production capacity is available. The Company continues to add to available mineralized material at Tajos Cuates with average grades of 2.5 Au g/t and 350 Ag g/t over widths of 1.2 to 3.5 m. The mill expansion, to 300 tonnes per day production capacity, is complete other than the acquisition and installation of liners for the new ball mill and the building of some piping and launders. It is anticipated that production at 300 tpd will be reached by mid 2010.

Third, a regional exploration drill program will begin at Florida, Macedo and Santa Fe with the goal of defining significant NI 43-101 compliant resources by late 2010 or early 2011.

Lastly, an exploration program to follow up on apparent similarities between the Mina Real District and the Bolanos District as suggested by Dr. Tony Starling will be carried out. One aspect of this is to examine the possibility that some of the Mina Real veins may change in character and grade with depth.

Now with the financial resources in place to execute our plans, the Company feels confident we have defined the proper short and medium term programs to execute effectively. The district has enough potential to turn potential resources into proven reserves and to take the operation to production rates significantly higher than current levels.

We expect to be in a position to finish the first stage of exploration and development, ramping up the plant to produce the targeted 26,000 gold equivalent ounces per year. The second stage expansion will be to continue increasing the production level up to 700 tonnes a day, with an annual target production of 56,000 to 60,000 gold equivalent ounces. This will be dependent on the outcome of the exploration. A full detailed exploration and development program outline will follow shortly.

The Company remains confident in the Mina Real Project and the potential of significant additional discoveries. This remains the goal of the Company, to fully develop the project area through a well funded, systematic exploration and development programs.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all employees of Rochester Resources, for their hard work and dedicated service; in particular Dr. Alfredo Parra who is stepping down as COO and as a Director of the Company to pursue other opportunities; to our shareholders for their loyal support and patience; and to our directors and officers who have maintained strong belief and focus in what we are trying to accomplish. We look forward to a prosperous 2010 as we continue to explore and develop our projects and implement strategies to increase shareholder value.

Sincerely,

Eduardo Luna, President and CEO

Rochester Commences Drill Program at Mina Real

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 19, 2010) - Rochester Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:RCT)(FRANKFURT:R5I) is pleased to announce the Company has commenced an aggressive exploration and delineation drill program at the Mina Real Project in Nayarit, Mexico. The drill program will target three major vein systems at the Florida, Tajos Cuates and Macedo area with the goal of outlining economic resources to support its ongoing production.

The Mina Real Property is located at the Sierra Madre Occidental Range, which is the largest epithermal precious metal region in the world, hosting the majority of Mexico's large tonnage gold and silver deposits.

XPLOR (Exploraciones y Desarrollos Mineros, S.A. de C.V.) has been contracted to complete a drill program consisting of 102 drill holes over 21,915m at Mina Real.

Rochester plans to spend a total of US$7.2 million in 2010, to complete the drilling and drifting programs described herein, as well as to initiate other project development related activities, including preparation of a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimation.

A total of three drill rigs will be used for surface drilling and one for underground drilling. The program will be divided into five specific areas as follows:
Project / Area Metres
 
Tajos Cuates (Underground drilling) 3,130
Tajos Cuates (Exploration drilling) 2,570
Florida IV 1,800
Florida NW 4,650
Macedo 9,765
Total Drilling 21,915

The drill program will commence at the Florida NW area where the company will drill test 13 veins identified on surface up to 1.5 kilometres in length to the northwest of the intrusive at the Florida Mine. These veins are oriented parallel to the Florida Mine and previous surface work supports continuity of the vein system to the northwest of the post-mineral intrusive. The Company has strong expectations based on surface sampling to date which found mineralized material of similar grades to that mined at Florida in the past (approximately 9 grams/tonne gold and 250 grams/tonne silver).

Eduardo Luna, President and CEO, states, "The implementation of this drill program is going to help confirm the continuity of the Florida Mine high grade structures to the Northwest as well as enabling us to further accelerate and complement the development at the Tajos Cuates Mine and Macedo area."

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD

Eduardo Luna, President and CEO
