TRIVELLO RELOADED

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010

Did you realize? As of today Zimtu owns a major piece of an emerging copper-gold company. Ending up with a large shareholding in Trivello Energy Corp. (TSXv:TRV) (FSE:T6U1) is another milestone for Zimtu shareholders that will benefit our asset base. Most importantly Zimtu acquired its position in Trivello with a minimum of cash involved, which again proves our business model dead on.

In the case of Trivello Energy Corp. we did not create a new company but we grasped the opportunity to restructure – or should we better say to reinvent - Trivello almost from scratch. Over the last couple of months we bought out the old management and brought on new people with good names in the industry such as the former head of SGS Lakefield and the president of Strathmore Minerals. At the same time we strengthened Trivello’s asset base by vending in two properties, the historic Tom Gold Mine and – more importantly now – the Day Property, a copper-gold porphyry project in the middle of one of British Columbia’s most prolific copper-gold exploration regions.

The Day Property in the Toodoggone appears to have the right ingredients that are needed to make an early stage exploration project successful: the location is 50 kilometers south-east of the Kemess South mine and 150 kilometers north of Mt. Milligan, both are major gold-copper deposits.  The historical gold and copper grades that were found by Falconbridge in the early 70’s are up to three times as high as the grades that are mined nearby. This means that further exploration could afford a decrease of the average grades and still make the project look attractive in this part of the world.

We think that the Day property is one of those assets that a junior exploration company should own to start with. It’s going to be an exciting experience to see Trivello move forward on this new foundation.

On closing of the Day property transaction Zimtu Capital will own 7.4 million shares of Trivello.

ACCESSING EUROPEAN CAPITAL

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

Accessing European Capital. That is the motto of our successful networking event which we will host again at this year’s PDAC.  The name pretty much speaks for itself:

Many public companies from North America compete for European financing dollars and interest. Some of these companies have been highly successful, while others have a more difficult time gaining traction. Is there more to it than coincidence and luck – or can success be planned?

I am often asked what can be done to make marketing campaigns more efficient in Europe.   I think that the key to success is getting to know who you are working with. 

Zimtu Capital created Accessing European Capital in order to bring together experts from both sides – North American brokers, directors of public companies and European service providers.

Isn’t it ironic that although both sides depend so much on each other, we are far from truly understanding each other’s needs? Here is some food for thought: Do we really pay attention to the cultural difference between the markets? Does it make sense to treat Europe simply as an extension to the North American market?

I have observed that European investors, and amongst them specifically German investors, think differently and have a different approach and agenda. Sometimes they have a pronounced appetite for stories that might not be in favor in North America. Sometimes North America sets the pace and Europe lags behind. Therefore it’s essential to know what topics attract investments at any given time and when the overall appetite for small caps might be gaining momentum.

Timing is very important. We are working in an environment where everything is in constant movement. Methods and inroads that proved fruitful yesterday do not guarantee success today.  This is another reason why you should keep track with new developments in the European markets and be at the pulse of things.

The Accessing European Capital Networking Event will be hosted on March 8, 2010, at 2:00 pm in Room 711 of the MTCC South Building.  The event is a follow-up to last year’s inaugural event.
