Adroit Resources Inc. - British Geological Survey reports antimony top of current supply risk index

BGS has issued its Risk List 2011, giving a relative risk listing of 52 chemical elements or element groups needed to maintain our economy and lifestyle. Only four are listed in the very-high-risk group: antimony, platinum group elements, mercury and tungsten.

Antimony has many diversified and indispensable uses for both commercial and military applications. Antimony prices recently soared as global demand surges and output considerably declined as Hunan province, China's largest producing region, curbs output to comply with central-government restrictions. China reportedly contributes around 90 per cent of world output.

Environmental Sensors Inc. - ESI releases new version of soil moisture sensor

A new SDI-12 version of ESI's GroPoint Lite soil moisture sensor is now available. This new SDI-12 output will appeal to markets for existing and new irrigation systems, as well as OEM sellers. ESI is now working with key accounts to establish 2011 product needs and requirements.

The new, small, sleek, lightweight sensor is extremely easy to install and will meet the input requirements of newer irrigation controllers now being offered by several manufacturers. This new version of GroPoint Lite is an analog sensor with a SDI-12 interface and output, offering a host of advantages to potential users:

• Sensors can be interchanged without reprogramming data recorders with calibration or other information.
• Power is supplied to sensors through the interface.
• The use of a standard serial interface eliminates significant complexity in the design of data recorders.
• Data recorders can be designed and produced independently of future sensor development.
• Sensors can interface with any SDI-12 data recorder.
• Sensors will work with data recorders using earlier versions of SDI-12.

The next evolution in ESI's GroPoint soil moisture sensor development will be the development of a range of profiling sensors using both the GroPoint Lite and GroPoint Pro soil moisture sensor technologies. Using SDI-12 technology allows for multiple sensor data points on a single recorder and communication pathway, lending the two sensor technologies to relatively simple and scalable development of future profiling sensors. This presents a unique opportunity for ESI to be the only sensor company offering a highly accurate TDT-based (time-domain transmissiometry) profiling sensor to the market.

Avis Media – Pursuing Growing Markets

According to the newly completed IMS Research study IPTV: A Global Market Analysis – 2011 Edition, the worldwide IPTV subscriber base in 2015 will exceed 70 million. Currently, the market size is roughly 36.5 million.

This doubling of the market will mainly result from increased demand across Western Europe and – perhaps unsurprisingly – China (with yearly double-digit growth rates), says John Kendall, Market Analyst at IMS. Kendall further points to Latin America's market potential and alludes to the rapid recent IPTV growth in Eastern European countries like Croatia, Slovakia, and Slovenia.

According to IMS' study, IPTV will also play a large role in the hospitality market, with set-top box shipments expected to increase by 75% from 2010 to 2015 as hoteliers begin to realize the flexibility and scalability of the platform. As Kendall states, 'hoteliers are recognizing the value of the IP platform and are increasingly moving to adopt it.'

With its focus on IPTV solutions, particularly in the hospitality market, Avis Media is perfectly positioned to capitalize on this growth over the next years.

Adroit Resources Inc. – Positioned for the Present

While Avis Financial's portfolio companies ESI and Avis Media are perfectly positioned for the high-potential future markets of intelligent water irrigation and IPTV hospitality media, Adroit Resources finds itself right in the middle of an exploding mineral & metal trend.

Gold – one of the targets on Adroit's Italian properties – has risen from USD 500/oz to over USD 1400/oz in a matter of five years. Antimony – a strategic metal used for electronics, PET bottles and as a flame retardant in children's clothes, aircraft & automobile seat covers, etc. – has recently soared to an all-time high of over USD 15'000 per tonne. The metal, which Adroit is pursuing in Italy, has thus tripled in value over less than three years.

Adroit's Canadian properties are no less attractive: besides copper and zinc, the company is pursuing the metal that has shown perhaps the strongest recent performance of them all, silver.

Environmental Sensors Inc. – Positioned for the Future

According to 'The Economist' (February 26th, 2011), water irrigation represents one of the major markets of the future. Nestlé's Peter Brabeck states that roughly 4'200 cubic kilometres of water can be used each year without depleting overall resources. However, consumption is currently higher – at about 4'500 cubic kilometres per year, of which agricultures uses about 70%. On most estimates, farmers will need 45% more water by 2030 and 70% more by 2050

To avoid a global catastrophe, agriculture has to start using water far more effectively – through intelligent irrigation and systems like those offered by ESI. Israel, for example, has invested heavily in intelligent irrigation and consequently only wastes about 1/10 of its water: if everyone else was equally efficient, the water problem would be much less pressing. The Food and Agriculture Organization thus estimates that over the next 40 years irrigation will require cumulative investment of around US$ 1 trillion. ESI will be sure to gain a good share of this market.

Adroit Resources Inc. - Antimony Project Update as Antimony Price Hits New High

The strategic minor metal Antimony has reached a new all time record high of Bid USD 14,500 and Ask of USD 15,000 per tonne. Adroit's objective is to have the largest compliant Antimony resources outside China. The company is now aggressively working on a program to bring the first portions of its historic Italian Antimony resources to 43-101 compliance. Calculations show approximately 45,000 metric tonnes of contained Antimony metal on the company's existing permits. Some of these deposits are open and nearly all of the historic resources begin at surface and extend to depths of just 40m.

Except for one mine in South Africa, no mine outside China has compliant Antimony resources greater than 45,000 metric tonnes of contained metal. Currently, the entire European Union has no known production of this strategic minor metal.

Adroit's longer-term objective, besides building the largest compliant Antimony resources outside China, is to begin mining Antimony on its permits in the Grosseto province of Italy, a region formerly well known for Antimony mining. In 2009, China produced approximately 91% of the world's Antimony. One securities analyst, quoted in a Financial Times article on 18 January 2011, stated that Chinese authorities have discovered during environmental crackdowns that their Antimony resources are nearly exhausted. We have recently seen Chinese companies buying Antimony resources outside China, such as the Beaverbrook Antimony mine in Canada.

Adroit is planning to start drilling in the second quarter of 2011 with the objective of producing compliant Antimony resource calculations from the historic Antimony resources contained within the Company's exploration permits.

Environmental Sensors Inc. - ESI launches GroPoint Single Valve Controller

ESI has released its GroPoint single valve controller (GP-SVC) into the marketplace. This device enhances standard timer-based irrigation systems by collecting soil moisture data and automatically adjusting the amounts of water used. Irrigation thus only takes place when plants or turf need more water.

With the launch of the GroPoint GP-SVC another step is taken to increase efficiency in water use and allow for conservation of this important resource. Water use can be reduced by as much as 60 per cent, saving both water and electricity costs as well as wear and tear on irrigation system components and maintenance. The use of soil data is more accurate and efficient than use of rain sensors or weather data, especially as it measures moisture in the root area of the plant. This allows for healthier crops, healthier gardens and lawns and generally improved quality.

Environmental Sensors Inc. - ESI sells GroPoint wireless to Sask Ag

ESI's GroPoint wireless system has been installed by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) and the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture. The system will be deployed at the Outlook Crop Diversification Centre, jointly operated by AAFC and the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture.

AAFC and the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture will initiate their use of the GroPoint wireless monitoring system under irrigation pivots in a variety of crops for the upcoming 2011 growing season. The system consists of a series of field nodes, soil moisture sensors and a weather station, which will feed real-time, soil moisture and weather data through a wireless network to researchers through ESI's GroPoint Manager software.

The system serves several purposes and will provide a multitude of benefits to researchers, growers and the agricultural community. It will allow scientists to gather data while they perform various research projects on demonstration plots and will verify the efficiency of irrigation equipment systems. The system will assist irrigation managers (growers) in analyzing their irrigation methods, allowing them to make better decisions regarding when and how to irrigate.

Staff at the centre will also demonstrate the GroPoint wireless system and monitoring equipment on tours and field days, which are held regularly for members of the agricultural community. It is anticipated that the research and results from this facility will be shared both federally through AAFC and provincially with other provincial agricultural ministries. As well, it is hoped that as ESI continues to build on its established credibility in the scientific and research communities, this visibility will assist ESI in its efforts to further penetrate the commercial agriculture market. Pivot irrigation is a significant potential market for ESI; there are nearly 300,000 pivots in operation in North America.

Adroit Resources Inc. - Antimony Exploration Drilling Planned

ADROIT RESOURCES INC.: ANTIMONY EXPLORATION DRILLING PLANNED

Fieldwork resumed in November, 2010, on Adroit Resources Inc.'s wholly owned antimony permits in Grosseto province, Italy. The continuing program comprises soil and rock sampling, ground geophysical surveying, geological mapping, and drilling. Drilling is planned to start in the second quarter of 2011 with the objective of producing compliant resource calculations contained within the company's exploration permits. The antimony project covers four permits in the Manciano region – a historically significant producer of antimony – with several deposits mined over the past century.

The program follows up on extensive data compilation and interpretation, as well as on reconnaissance surveying carried out since the renewal of the permits. Exploration and resource evaluation, carried out prior to the mine closures, indicated the presence of considerable historical antimony resources in the district and, more particularly, within the company's 100%-owned permits.

Antimony prices recently soared as global demand surged and output considerably declined as Hunan province, China's largest producing region, curbed output to comply with central government restrictions. China reportedly contributes around 90 per cent of world output.

Adroit Resources Inc. - Planned drilling on Red Vein

Adroit Resources has announced plans for a drilling program in January 2011 on their Red Vein property in Northern Ontario. Based on encouraging results from magnetic and VLF surveys earlier this year, the initial 2000 metre diamond drill program will focus on two zones of the property (the initial 14.5 km grid). In addition to this, the results have also led Adroit to start cutting a second grid of 20 km so as to allow further preliminary magnetic and VLF surveys.

Furthermore, a staking program has been completed to significantly enlarge Adroit's Red Vein VMS property. This property, which is highly prospective for copper, zinc, and gold, has been enlarged by 118 claim units (1888 hectares), leading to a total of 5936 hectares. This staking has helped secure further exploration targets which were identified in a Quickbird report commissioned by Adroit Resources.

Adroit Resources Inc. - Interview

James Cross, VP of Corporate Development for Adroit Resources, has been interviewed by Dominic Frisby for his podcast 'Frisby's Bulls and Bears'. The interview focuses on antimony, a little known metal used as a fire retardant (plastics, flight suits, children's toys, automobile and plane seat covers), alloying element, battery hardener and in ammunition. Mr. Cross and Mr. Frisby discuss Adroit's aim to take the company's historic antimony resources to 43-101 compliance before beginning a mining operation. They estimate 50'000 tons of contained metal with average grade of 1.5% antimony, located 0.4 to 1 metre below ground. Initial drilling suggests that there are gold and silver credits that will also be mined when pulling out the antimony.

Adroit Resources Inc. – Positive Laboratory Results

In the summer of 2008 Adroit Resources conducted the third phase of soil sampling using MMI (Mobile Metal Ions) technology on its 4048 Ha Red Vein property near Timmins, Ontario. The company tested soil from 105 Ha on the Western part of the property.

SGS Minerals Laboratories in Toronto have analyzed 592 soil samples for 7 base-metal elements. They have been able to confirm previously recognized anomalies from the two earlier sampling stages, when anomalies for gold, silver, copper, zinc and nickel were found. In addition, they have found new anomalies whereby the response ratios exceed 25 for copper and zinc in one anomaly and 25 for silver in another.

Adroit Resources Inc. is focusing on the VMS (volcanogenic massive sulfide ore deposits) potential of the property. Random sampling of five historical copper trenches has revealed copper highs as well as anomalous gold values. Adroit plans induced polarization to get a geophysical survey as well as drill testing of the anomalies.
