Szia és hello mindenkinek,
ich rechne bei Donner mit folgenden news:
-Bohrergebnisse McLeod
-Bohrergebnisse Bracemac
noch diesen Monat!
Sollten erneut 10 Prozent Kupfer gefunden werden,
dürfte der Kurs wohl schnell über 1 CAD springen.
Wenn nicht zuvor Vale ein Übernahmeangebot unterbreitet ;-)

Leider ist für beide die momentane Bankenkrise wenig hilfreich, da für eine Übernahme von Xstata ne Menge Kohle benötigt werden muss. Geld, welches z. Zt. zum Stopfen der Löcher in den Bank-Bilanzen benötigt wird.
sollte aber eine positive Grundstimmung in der Berbaubranche fördern.
Jo remenyseg.

Xstrata rejects US$76 billion informal bid from Vale
Xstrata rejected a US$76 billion takeover approach from Cia Vale do Rio Doce
Xstrata plc has rejected a US$76 billion takeover approach from Cia Vale do Rio Doce, the world`s biggest iron-ore producer, the Financial Times said, citing unidentified people familiar with the offer.
Xstrata and Glencore International AG, owner of 34.45% of the Switzerland-based company, dismissed the cash and share offer, valued at about £40 (US$78.03) a share, and are holding out for a bid closer to £45, the newspaper reported.
A successful bid would catapult Vale past BHP Billiton Ltd as the world`s largest mining company and add Xstrata`s copper, coal and zinc output to its nickel and iron-ore production. Record prices for commodities are fueling takeovers such as BHP`s hostile US$132 billion bid for Rio Tinto Group.
"Vale could get in some controversy if they paid too much," Chuck Bradford, an analyst at Soleil Securities Corp in New York, said on February 11 from New York. "It`s something Vale wants to be very careful of."
Xstrata fell 1.8% in London yesterday to £38/share, valuing the company at £37.2 billion. Xstrata shares have gained 7.2% this year, while Vale shares have dropped 6.4% over the same period on the Sao Paulo Stock Exchange.
Fernando Thompson, a Rio de Janeiro-based spokesman for Vale, declined to comment when contacted by phone other than referring to the company`s January 21 statement in which it said it had held talks with the company. Xstrata doesn`t comment on rumor or speculation, spokeswoman Sue Sara said February 12 by phone from Brisbane, Australia.
Vale is close to walking away from the talks, the Financial Times reported, citing a person close to Vale. Differences in recent share price movements has also sparked disagreements in talks, the paper reported.
Vale, which paid US$17.4 billion for Canadian nickel producer Inco Ltd last year, said January 21 that no "material result" had come from its approach and tumbling stock markets worldwide make a deal more difficult to complete.
BHPB`s hostile bid for Rio Tinto has added "momentum" to mining takeovers, Xstrata Chief Executive Officer Mick Davis said December 6. Since BHPB`s initial bid in November, Aluminum Corp of China and Alcoa Inc have acquired stakes in Rio Tinto to block a takeover.
On February 6, BHPB raised its bid, which was again rejected by Rio Tinto. "There is a benefit by combining these two companies," Soleil`s Bradford said. "The more diversified companies like BHPB and Rio Tinto are at a much higher value."
Xstrata`s Davis has developed the company`s copper and nickel mining capacity through acquisitions, including the US$16.2 billion purchase of Canada`s Falconbridge Ltd in 2006. Vale has operations adjacent to Xstrata in Canada`s Sudbury basin and on the French-controlled Pacific island of New Caledonia. Vale and Xstrata have plans to expand nickel output further and said in early 2007 they were in talks to co-operate on transportation and other operations at Sudbury, 350Km north of Toronto.

Sollte Xstrata von Vale übernommen werden hoffe ich doch stark, dass auch für Donner ein schönes Sümmchen geboten wird!
Brasilia 21.02.08 (www.emfis.com) Vale do Rio Doce soll das Übernahme-Angebot für die britisch-schweizerische Rohstoffgesellschaft Xstrata angehoben haben. Dies meldete die brasilianische Zeitung „Estado de S. Paolo“ unter Berufung auf Händlerkreise.
Demnach wolle der brasilianische Eisenerz-Riese jetzt 89,3 Milliarden Dollar für Xstrata auf den Tisch legen. Der Kaufpreis enthalte weiterhin eine Aktien- und eine Bar-Komponente. Eine offizielle Verlautbarung werde spätestens für Ende dieser Woche erwartet.
Laut „Estado de S.Paolo“ habe vor allem die jüngste Eisenerz-Preisrunde den Verhandlungsspielraum von Vale erhöht. Dem Konzern sei es gelungen, bei seinen größten Abnehmern Preissteigerungen von 65 Prozent durchzusetzen.
Das Management von Xstrata hat der Übernahme durch Vale bisher nicht zugestimmt. Pressemeldungen zufolge sollen sich die Differenzen zwischen den beiden Gesellschaften über den Kaufpreis zuletzt verschärft haben.

HIGH GRADE DISCOVERED BETWEEN BRACEMAC AND MCLEOD
Vancouver, B.C., April 10, 2008 – Mr. Harvey Keats, Chief Executive Officer of Donner Metals Ltd. (TSXV-DON), reports that
exploratory drill hole MC-08-36 has discovered previously unknown massive sulphides at a depth of 110 metres that grade 18.10 %
zinc, 3.14% copper, 61.28 g/t silver and 1.37 g/t gold over 4.18 metres. This interval is 190 metres stratigraphically above the Key
Tuffite horizon and located between the Bracemac and McLeod areas. High grade sulphides, grading 15.64% zinc, 0.51% copper,
31.19 g/t silver and 0.65 g/t gold over 2.75 metres, were also encountered in drill hole BRC-08-67 that extended the Bracemac Key
Tuffite Zone. Exploratory drill hole MC-08-34, a deep test 470 metres down-dip from the New McLeod Zone, intersected 2.12
metres grading 10.81% zinc, 1.35% copper, 37.72 g/t silver and 0.59 g/t gold also at the Key Tuffite horizon. Two drill holes (MC-
05-20W2, drilled west of the New McLeod Zone and MC-08-35, drilled up-dip of the Old McLeod Zone) both intersected high
grade copper stringers in the alteration zone near the Key Tuffite horizon.

*Mineralization associated with “Pipe” alteration. “Pipe” alteration is defined as intense chlorite alteration typically underlying or
surrounding zones of sulphide development and indicative of a hydrothermal vent system associated with mineralization in the
Matagami Camp. Magnetite, chalcopyrite, pyrite, sphalerite, silica and talc may occur with chlorite.
Bracemac Area
Bracemac Key Tuffite Zone
Three holes were completed up-dip of the Bracemac Key Tuffite Zone. Drill hole BRC-08-67 extended the zone with massive and
semi-massive sulphides intersected 47 metres up-dip of BRC-07-64 (11.62% zinc, 0.39 % copper, 17.74 g/t silver and 0.14 g/t gold
over 10.2 metres). Drill holes BRC-07-68 and 69 were drilled 50 metres up-dip from BRC-08-65 (29.84% zinc, 0.04% copper, 6.62
g/t silver, 0.03 g/t gold over 2.50 metres) and BRC-08-67. Both of these holes intersected a gabbro-granodiorite dyke. The
thickness of the dyke is unknown and further exploration up-dip is required to determine if mineralization extends to the other side
of the dyke. The zone remains open down-plunge and to the west.

McLeod Area
Exploratory Drilling
Previously unknown high grade sulphides were encountered by diamond drill hole MC-08-36 at a stratigraphic level roughly
equivalent to the Bracemac Zone that is located 900 metres west of this new intersection. Mineralization occurs at 110 metres below
surface. It is cut by gabbro dykes and is underlain by a very strong “Pipe” alteration system that can be traced 190 metres downward
to the Key Tuffite horizon. The alteration zone contains 5 to 50% disseminated, stringer and semi-massive pyrite with traces of
sphalerite and chalcopyrite from 168.18 to 182.93 – assays are pending. This new system indicates strong potential for additional
sulphide mineralization at both the new upper horizon and at the Key Tuffite stratigraphic level in this area.
The potential down-plunge of the New McLeod Zone was investigated by two deep, step-out drill holes. MC-08-34 intersected
massive sulphides 470 metres down-plunge of the New McLeod Zone. The sulphides occurred within a well mineralized Key
Tuffite which in turn was underlain by 10 metres of “Pipe” alteration. MC-05-20W2 was drilled 200 metres northwest of and downplunge
of MC-05-18W3 (6.48% zinc, 0.39% copper, 21.77 g/t silver, 0.44 g/t gold over 9.4 metres) and encountered 16 metres of
“Pipe” alteration with local copper stringer mineralization. Both holes demonstrate that strong potential exists down-plunge of the
New McLeod Zone.
Diamond drill hole MC-08-35 was drilled 250 metres up-dip of the Old McLeod Zone and intersected high grade copper stringers in
the immediate hanging wall to the Key Tuffite. This mineralization occurs at approximately the same level as, and 120 east of, drill
hole M-6 (1960) that returned 1.77% zinc and 4.21% copper over 6.95 metres. Underlying the Key Tuffite in MC-08-35 is 174
metres of “Pipe” alteration and strong chlorite alteration.
New McLeod Zone
Two wedged drill holes were completed in the New McLeod Zone. Diamond drill hole MC-07-31W3 was drilled 50 metres east and
slightly down-dip of MC-05-18W5 (5.36% zinc, 4.55% copper, 65.22 g/t silver, 0.07 g/t gold over 1.40 metres). MC-07-33W1 was
drilled 35 metres west of MC-05-18W3 (6.48% zinc, 0.39% copper, 21.8 g/t silver, 0.44 g/t gold over 9.40 metres) and 70 metres
down-dip from MC-07-33 (13.30% zinc, 0.64% copper, 18.05 g/t silver, 0.71 g/t gold over 2.00 metres). The extent of the zone
remains to be tested, particularly up-dip and down-dip of known intersections.
Four drills are active on the Matagami Project with continued step-out drilling at Bracemac and McLeod. A total of 51,788 metres
of diamond drilling has been completed since the project began in late 2006. Additional geological information, including maps and
sections, is available at www.donnermetals.com.
The Matagami Project has an area of mutual interest of 4,750 square kilometres and presently includes 3,340 mineral claims
covering 801 square kilometres. Taking advantage of Xstrata Zinc’s extensive historical database, Donner and Xstrata Canada
Corporation – Xstrata Zinc Canada Division (Xstrata Zinc) are using a combination of 3D data integration, innovative advanced
technologies, new concepts and diamond drilling to explore for new deposits in this prolific mining camp.
The Matagami Mining Camp is a world-class mining district, with 18 known VMS deposits, including 10 past producers of varying
sizes, including the giant Mattagami Lake Deposit (25.64 million tonnes of 8.2% Zn, 0.56% Cu, 20.91 g/t Ag and 0.41 g/t Au)
discovered in 1957 and mined from 1963 to 1988. The area is host to historical production of 8.6 billion pounds of Zn and 853
million pounds of Cu and has established infrastructure including the town of Matagami, a railway, a paved road, and a 2,600 t/day
mill owned by Xstrata Zinc.
Donner has the option to earn a 50% participating joint venture interest in the Matagami Project by incurring a total of $20 to $25
million of expenditures on exploration and related work on or before May 31, 2011. Upon earn-in by Donner, five separate joint
ventures will be formed, covering the property and the area of interest. In each of the five joint venture areas, Xstrata Zinc has the
option to earn back a 15% interest in each area by incurring up to $20 million on a feasibility study.
The Company’s strategy is to explore for and discover zinc - copper deposits in the Matagami Camp and to leverage the general

HIGH GRADE DISCOVERED BETWEEN BRACEMAC AND MCLEOD
Vancouver, B.C., April 10, 2008 – Mr. Harvey Keats, Chief Executive Officer of Donner Metals Ltd. (TSXV-DON), reports that
exploratory drill hole MC-08-36 has discovered previously unknown massive sulphides at a depth of 110 metres that grade 18.10 %
zinc, 3.14% copper, 61.28 g/t silver and 1.37 g/t gold over 4.18 metres. This interval is 190 metres stratigraphically above the Key
Tuffite horizon and located between the Bracemac and McLeod areas. High grade sulphides, grading 15.64% zinc, 0.51% copper,
31.19 g/t silver and 0.65 g/t gold over 2.75 metres, were also encountered in drill hole BRC-08-67 that extended the Bracemac Key
Tuffite Zone. Exploratory drill hole MC-08-34, a deep test 470 metres down-dip from the New McLeod Zone, intersected 2.12
metres grading 10.81% zinc, 1.35% copper, 37.72 g/t silver and 0.59 g/t gold also at the Key Tuffite horizon. Two drill holes (MC-
05-20W2, drilled west of the New McLeod Zone and MC-08-35, drilled up-dip of the Old McLeod Zone) both intersected high
grade copper stringers in the alteration zone near the Key Tuffite horizon.

*Mineralization associated with “Pipe” alteration. “Pipe” alteration is defined as intense chlorite alteration typically underlying or
surrounding zones of sulphide development and indicative of a hydrothermal vent system associated with mineralization in the
Matagami Camp. Magnetite, chalcopyrite, pyrite, sphalerite, silica and talc may occur with chlorite.
Bracemac Area
Bracemac Key Tuffite Zone
Three holes were completed up-dip of the Bracemac Key Tuffite Zone. Drill hole BRC-08-67 extended the zone with massive and
semi-massive sulphides intersected 47 metres up-dip of BRC-07-64 (11.62% zinc, 0.39 % copper, 17.74 g/t silver and 0.14 g/t gold
over 10.2 metres). Drill holes BRC-07-68 and 69 were drilled 50 metres up-dip from BRC-08-65 (29.84% zinc, 0.04% copper, 6.62
g/t silver, 0.03 g/t gold over 2.50 metres) and BRC-08-67. Both of these holes intersected a gabbro-granodiorite dyke. The
thickness of the dyke is unknown and further exploration up-dip is required to determine if mineralization extends to the other side
of the dyke. The zone remains open down-plunge and to the west.

McLeod Area
Exploratory Drilling
Previously unknown high grade sulphides were encountered by diamond drill hole MC-08-36 at a stratigraphic level roughly
equivalent to the Bracemac Zone that is located 900 metres west of this new intersection. Mineralization occurs at 110 metres below
surface. It is cut by gabbro dykes and is underlain by a very strong “Pipe” alteration system that can be traced 190 metres downward
to the Key Tuffite horizon. The alteration zone contains 5 to 50% disseminated, stringer and semi-massive pyrite with traces of
sphalerite and chalcopyrite from 168.18 to 182.93 – assays are pending. This new system indicates strong potential for additional
sulphide mineralization at both the new upper horizon and at the Key Tuffite stratigraphic level in this area.
The potential down-plunge of the New McLeod Zone was investigated by two deep, step-out drill holes. MC-08-34 intersected
massive sulphides 470 metres down-plunge of the New McLeod Zone. The sulphides occurred within a well mineralized Key
Tuffite which in turn was underlain by 10 metres of “Pipe” alteration. MC-05-20W2 was drilled 200 metres northwest of and downplunge
of MC-05-18W3 (6.48% zinc, 0.39% copper, 21.77 g/t silver, 0.44 g/t gold over 9.4 metres) and encountered 16 metres of
“Pipe” alteration with local copper stringer mineralization. Both holes demonstrate that strong potential exists down-plunge of the
New McLeod Zone.
Diamond drill hole MC-08-35 was drilled 250 metres up-dip of the Old McLeod Zone and intersected high grade copper stringers in
the immediate hanging wall to the Key Tuffite. This mineralization occurs at approximately the same level as, and 120 east of, drill
hole M-6 (1960) that returned 1.77% zinc and 4.21% copper over 6.95 metres. Underlying the Key Tuffite in MC-08-35 is 174
metres of “Pipe” alteration and strong chlorite alteration.
New McLeod Zone
Two wedged drill holes were completed in the New McLeod Zone. Diamond drill hole MC-07-31W3 was drilled 50 metres east and
slightly down-dip of MC-05-18W5 (5.36% zinc, 4.55% copper, 65.22 g/t silver, 0.07 g/t gold over 1.40 metres). MC-07-33W1 was
drilled 35 metres west of MC-05-18W3 (6.48% zinc, 0.39% copper, 21.8 g/t silver, 0.44 g/t gold over 9.40 metres) and 70 metres
down-dip from MC-07-33 (13.30% zinc, 0.64% copper, 18.05 g/t silver, 0.71 g/t gold over 2.00 metres). The extent of the zone
remains to be tested, particularly up-dip and down-dip of known intersections.
Four drills are active on the Matagami Project with continued step-out drilling at Bracemac and McLeod. A total of 51,788 metres
of diamond drilling has been completed since the project began in late 2006. Additional geological information, including maps and
sections, is available at www.donnermetals.com.
The Matagami Project has an area of mutual interest of 4,750 square kilometres and presently includes 3,340 mineral claims
covering 801 square kilometres. Taking advantage of Xstrata Zinc’s extensive historical database, Donner and Xstrata Canada
Corporation – Xstrata Zinc Canada Division (Xstrata Zinc) are using a combination of 3D data integration, innovative advanced
technologies, new concepts and diamond drilling to explore for new deposits in this prolific mining camp.
The Matagami Mining Camp is a world-class mining district, with 18 known VMS deposits, including 10 past producers of varying
sizes, including the giant Mattagami Lake Deposit (25.64 million tonnes of 8.2% Zn, 0.56% Cu, 20.91 g/t Ag and 0.41 g/t Au)
discovered in 1957 and mined from 1963 to 1988. The area is host to historical production of 8.6 billion pounds of Zn and 853
million pounds of Cu and has established infrastructure including the town of Matagami, a railway, a paved road, and a 2,600 t/day
mill owned by Xstrata Zinc.
Donner has the option to earn a 50% participating joint venture interest in the Matagami Project by incurring a total of $20 to $25
million of expenditures on exploration and related work on or before May 31, 2011. Upon earn-in by Donner, five separate joint
ventures will be formed, covering the property and the area of interest. In each of the five joint venture areas, Xstrata Zinc has the
option to earn back a 15% interest in each area by incurring up to $20 million on a feasibility study.
The Company’s strategy is to explore for and discover zinc - copper deposits in the Matagami Camp and to leverage the general
