''Wolf Minerals Limited is an ASX (WLF) and AIM (WLFE) listed specialty metals company focused on developing the Hemerdon tungsten and tin project, in Devon in the UK. The Company listed on the ASX in February 2007 and later that year acquired the Hemerdon project. In 2011, it completed a Definitive Feasibility Study which confirmed the Hemerdon project’s robust economics. With global tungsten demand forecast to grow by more than 50% between 2010 and 2015, Wolf is well placed to capitalise on tungsten’s status as one of the European Union’s 14 ‘critical’ metals. The project is being developed as a low cost, large-scale open pit tungsten and tin mining operation, and will become the world’s next major new tungsten mine. All required permits for the project are in place and production is scheduled to commence in 2015. The Hemerdon deposit contains one of the largest tungsten and tin resources in the world, and is rated by the British Geological Survey as the world’s fourth largest tungsten deposit. A tin concentrate will also be produced, which will generate valuable additional revenues. The project is expected to create about 200 direct jobs and inject hundreds of millions of pounds into the Plymouth, Devon and UK economies over the next decade. Wolf Minerals is focused on developing a major tungsten and tin mining operation in the UK. It is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange,after its IPO in 2007. It listed on the London Stock Exchange's Alternative Investment Market in November 2011. The company is developing the Hemerdon Mine in Devon, United Kingdom, which is one of the oldest mines in the UK. ==Company History== Wolf Minerals was incorporated on 20 September 2006 as a metals exploration and development company. It commenced trading on the ASX on February 15, 2007 after raising $3 million in an IPO. The Company was the best performing IPO on the ASX for 2007. On December 5, 2007 Wolf signed an option and lease agreement for the mineral rights and the rights to mine the Hemerdon tungsten and tin project near Plymouth, in Devon, in the southwest of UK. The Hemerdon project remains the Company’s core asset and it is focused on its development in to a sustainable, large scale mining operation. In May 2011, Wolf released a highly successful Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS), which confirmed the project’s robust economics and development potential as a major, new global source of tungsten supply. All required permits to develop the project are in place and major contracts to build and operate the mine have been awarded. Binding off-take agreements are also in place, and production is expected to commence in 2015. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wolf Minerals」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
