Information As
Of February 28, 2007 |
'Coal
is renewing its claim to being the fuel of the future. It's
plentiful, with enough proven reserves to last the world 164
years, and unlike oil and natural gas, supply isn't dependent
on political stability in the Middle East. Also, with modern
technologies, the use of coal can be environmentally
friendly.'
OverviewAquarian Coal Corp.
is an Indonesian coal producer with properties in the Riau
coal basin of Sumatra covering approximately 52,000
hectares. Property potential is described as 'world class',
and indicates the possibility of very substantial reserves
of coal with low overburden and available infrastructure to
a navigable tidal river. Earlier exploration has indicated
the presence of over 2.5 million tonnes of medium calorific,
low ash/sulphur content bitumous coal in the only small area
tested, located in the north of the license.
Investment Highlights
-
Aquarian has acquired rights to 52,000 hectares in the
Riau coal basin of Sumatra, Indonesia.
-
The international traded coal market has traditionally
been influenced by Japanese demand. The new factor is the
growth of the Chinese economy, doubling in size each 6 to
7 years. This is being reflected in increasing power
demand, 70% of which is being met by coal power stations.
Indonesian thermal coals are playing an important role in
meeting that increase in demand.
-
Aquarian has taken a strategic investment to position
itself to take advantage of these trends, and has a size
and quality of initial land position that would be
difficult to replicate.
-
Aquarian Coal Corp. plans to
commence exploration and drilling immediately.
-
Coal is renewing its claim to being the fuel of the
future. It's plentiful,with enough proven reserves to
lasts the world 164 years, and unlike oil and natural gas,
supply isn't dependent on political stability in the
Middle East.
-
Data from previous workers in the Indragiri Hulu area,
including Dutch geologists, indicate a number of outcrops
and seam locations throughout the area. These seams are
characterized by favourable low ash and sulphur contents.
-
There has been no drilling program to date, however
earlier exploration has indicated the presence of over 2.5
million tonnes of medium calorific, low ash/sulphur
content bitumous coal in the only small area tested,
located in the north of the license.
- Coal producers are set to generate better returns than
oil firms over the next decade, reckons Kevin Bambrough on
Bloomberg.com.
-
Known operations and prospects in the area, such as the
soon to be opened RBH mine in Indragiri Hulu, smaller
mines in the adjacent areas such as the NRK deposit in the
Kabupaten Kampar and the yet to be developed Cerenti
deposit add confidence that the Indragiri Hulu area
contains significant potential to host both low calorific,
large tonnage coal deposits and lower tonnage, high
calorific deposits.
Properties
Aquarian has acquired Indonesian coal properties in the
Riau coal basin of Sumatra covering approximately 52,000
hectares. Property potential is described as 'world class',
and indicates the possibility of very substantial reserves
of coal with low overburden and available infrastructure to
a navigable tidal river.
The license is located in the Indragiri Hulu area of
Sumatra. Aquarian's license borders two significant
discoveries; one to the north where the Indonesian
government has an indicated reserve of 85 million tonnes;
Kabupaten Kampar to the South East which is about to start
production.
Data from previous workers in the Indragiri Hulu area,
including Dutch geologists, indicate a number of outcrops
and seam locations throughout the area. These seams are
characterized by favourable low ash and sulphur contents.
The tenement position is located within a highly prospective
geological setting where structures such as anticlines and
synclines, form close to geological contacts with faulting
and folding creating potential for repetitions of coal seams
over a wider area.
Aquarian will begin studies of the area and will follow
up with a program of shallow drilling to expand and
delineate extensions and repetitions of the existing coal
resource.
Environment
Low ash and sulphur coal, also known as "envirocoal" is
one of the world's cleanest fossil fuels. A sulfur content
of less than 1 percent is considered low. British coal, for
instance, has 3 percent to 5 percent sulfur. Earlier
exploration of the Riau coal basin has indicated the
presence of over 2.5 million tonnes of medium calorific, low
ash/sulphur content bitumous coal in the only small area
tested, located in the north of the license.
Also, new technologies that remove sulphur dioxide gases
released when coal burns render it no more polluting than
other fuels. And coal-to-liquids (CTL) technology, pioneered
in Germany and South Africa, can convert the fuel into
petrol, diesel and aviation fuel. This technology,
economical with oil over $60 a barrel, is now set for
widescale development in the US.
Market Drivers
In a Financial Times report (R. Bream, 2006) it is stated
that 'although prices have come down slightly from the peak,
coal for use in power stations - thermal coal - is still
selling at about $ 50 a tonne, more than double the lows of
2002' .
The author states that a new vitality has entered the
global market due to the steel boom driven by China and
increasingly, high prices are encouraging the appearance of
a new group of coal companies, including several Indonesian
groups, which are exporting more coal to power stations in
Europe as well as in Asia .
The value of Indonesian thermal coal assets has risen
sharply, as reflected in a deal struck in March between Bumi
Resources, Indonesia 's biggest coal exporter, and a
consortium led by investment bank Renaissance Capital Asia.
Bumi agreed to sell two coal subsidiaries, Kaltim Prima and
Arutmin, for $3.2bn, having bought the assets in 2002 and
2003 for a total of $ 675m.
Coal is a vital global energy resource for the generation
of electricity, as a fuel for
steel and cement production and other industrial activities.
It supplies almost 40% of electricity worldwide but
individual country reliance changes across the globe. Poland
uses coal for over 94% of its energy needs, South
Africa-92%, China-77% and Australia-76% and these demands
have made the industry become the world's fastest growing
energy source over gas, oil, nuclear, hydro and renewables
during recent years.
Coal is renewing its claim to being the fuel of the
future. It's plentiful,with enough proven reserves to last
the world 164 years, and unlike oil and natural gas, supply
isn't dependent on political stability in the Middle East,
as Jim Juubak of Moneycentral.msn.com points out.
The three Sumatran coal basins have been significant
producers of coal for over a century and contain two thirds
of Indonesia 's known coal resources, with the balance
located in Kalimantan, West Java, and Sulawesi.
Coal continues to be second only to oil in meeting the
world's energy needs, with most production for domestic use.
Depending on the carbon/energy content and moisture
content of coal, we can divide
coal into two categories:
Low Rank Coal (47% of world reserves)
-
Sub-Bituminous (30% of world reserves)
-
Lignite/Brown (17% of world reserves)
Hard Coal (53% of world reserves)
-
Bituminous (52% of world reserves)
-
Anthracite (1% of world reserves)
The higher ranking hard coal is used for manufacture of iron
and steel whilst brown
coal is used primarily for power generation.
