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.'


Overview

Aquarian 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.
