Established in 1986, Wheeling-Nisshin, Inc. began as an international joint venture between Nisshin Steel Co., Ltd. of Japan, a leading Japanese integrated steelmaker specializing in coated and stainless steel, and Wheeling Pittsburgh Steel Corporation, one of the leading American steel mills. In March of 2008, Nisshin Steel acquired all outstanding shares formerly held by Wheeling Pittsburgh Steel Corporation to strengthen its control over Wheeling-Nisshin and enable Wheeling-Nisshin to achieve further growth as Nisshin Steel's main hub in the U.S. coated steel market. In Follansbee, West Virginia, ground was broken on December 13, 1986, for the construction of the first hot-dip Aluminizing and Galvanizing Line (AGL). And, in April 1988, Wheeling-Nisshin started to operate its AGL, which is the country's first fully computerized, state-of-the-art steel-coating facility.In addition to the AGL, which has been operating successfully since 1988, we completed in 1993 a further advanced Continuous Galvanizing Line (CGL), which allows us to broaden our product selection and increase output. CGL is the nation's first high speed, hot-dip line specializing in light-gauge coated products.Wheeling-Nisshin has now become one of the largest hot-dip coating mills, producing 700,000 tons a year of quality products: AGL-400,000 tons; CGL-300,000 tons. Our products are used for various automotive, appliance, building and construction applications.It is Wheeling-Nisshin's goal to produce coated steel products with maximum efficiency and continuous quality control, to provide superior service to our customers, to create a pleasant, productive and safe workplace for our employees, and to stimulate the economy, while protecting the environment of the surrounding communities.

Consolidated Spire Ventures Ltd. is a junior Canadian exploration company dedicated to the pursuit and exploration of gold, silver and other mineral deposits in Canada and North America, such as the recent acquisition of the 100% mineral interest in 164,072 contiguous acres in an area prospective for lithium, located about 30kms south-southeast of Fox Creek, Alberta within the Devonian Leduc Formation.The phase I drill program will consist of approximately 1,500 metres in 12 to 14 diamond drill holes. Several new areas in the South Discovery Zone will be tested, following up on results of the November and December 2009 infill soil grid. The results were very encouraging with individual values up to 1.2 g/t Au within a gold-in-soil anomaly up to 400m wide and spanning a northeast-southwest strike length of approximately 700m. The South Discovery Zone is part of a gold-in-soil anomaly extending nearly 2km in total strike length.Other phase 1 drilling is designed to test the continuity of gold mineralization intersected in South Discovery, in 2006 and 2007. Those programs included drill intercepts such as 50.6 metres of 1.36 grams per tonne gold in DDH 2006-21, 66.8 m of 0.90 g/t gold in DDH 2007-02, 96.5 m of 0.74 g/t gold in DDH 2007-0545.6m of 0.94g/t gold in DDH 2007-03. Diamond drilling during 2006 and 2007 in a small portion of the South Discovery Zone anomaly yielded some of the widest intervals of gold mineralization on the property. Should sufficient continuity exist, the results will be used to estimate an initial, NI 43-101-compliant resource for the South Discovery zone.Spire Ventures announced in October 2009, that the TSX Venture Exchange had given final approval for the Option Agreement dated July 20, 2009 with Altair Ventures Incorporated (“Altair”) (TSX-V: AVX) of Vancouver, British Columbia. The Agreement with Altair has a two-phase option to earn an initial 70% interest in the Prospect Valley Gold Property, near Merritt BC, by spending a total of $6 million in exploration and issue 7 million shares over four years to Spire. Altair can then earn an additional 20% interest upon: (a) delivering a Bankable Feasibility Study with respect to the Property; and (b) making such additional cash and share payments in such amounts as may be negotiated and settled by the parties in writing at a later date, for a total 90% interest in the Prospect Valley Gold Property.

KWG Resources Inc (TSXV: KWG) is an exploration stage company that is participating in the discovery and delineation of chromite deposits in the James Bay Lowlands of Northern Ontario. These deposits appear to promise the hosting of a globally significant source of chromite which may be refined into ferrochrome, a principal ingredient in the manufacture of stainless steel. KWG has been a pioneer in exploring the James Bay lowlands in a joint venture with Spider Resources since 1993. This has resulted in the discovery of several diamond bearing kimberlites and the McFaulds Lake copper-zinc volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits in 2004, the discovery which precipitated a staking rush that defined the "Ring of Fire".KWG acquired a 1% net smelter royalty ("NSR") in three of the presently-defined chromite discoveries and created Canada Chrome Corporation ("CCC") as a wholly-owned subsidiary. CCC has staked mining claims covering a unique linear sand ridge that stands proud of the vast wetlands. This sand ridge is well suited for a railroad embankment which could be created for transporting materials into the discovery area as well as transporting the mined ores out. Krech Ojard & Associates have been engaged to undertake pre-feasibility engineering of the embankment alignment and water crossings. This is being supported by a geotechnical study being carried out by Golder Associates who collected soil samples from 744 borings using hollow stem auger drills. The sampling along the 330 kilometer study corridor was completed in May, 2010. The pre-feasibility level engineering document will enable informed consultations with affected First Nations and all other local and regulatory constituencies, on the feasibility of constructing a railroad.Since core drilling first intersected chromite on the "Freewest Option" property in 2006, a total of 43 holes were directed to delineate the Big Daddy chromite deposit to a depth of 365 metres. Subsequent to the completion of the winter drilling 2010 program, Micon International Limited, "Micon", was engage to estimate the chromite resource. The results, first reported in a press release on May 3rd, 2010, are contained in a 43-101 compliant report filed on SEDAR on June 7th 2010, (SPIDER RESOURCES INC. AND KWG RESOURCES INC. TECHNICAL REPORT ON THE MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE FOR THE BIG DADDY CHROMITE DEPOSIT McFAULDS LAKE AREA, JAMES BAY LOWLANDS, NORTHERN ONTARIO,CANADA). Micon estimated that the "Massive Chromite Domain" contains an indicated resource of 23.2 million tonnes averaging 40.66% Cr2O3, and an additional inferred resource of 16.3 million tonnes averaging 39.09% Cr2O3. By comparison, Outokumpu's Kemi Mine in Finland has ore reserves of 41.1 million tonnes averaging 24.5% Cr2O3. The much higher grades of the Big Daddy compare favourably with those deposits whose ore is shipped directly to foundries with minimal processing. This potential is being investigated. CCC and the NSR are owned outright by KWG, as is Debuts Diamonds Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary which contains all the Company's diamond exploration properties. These include the MacFadyen Kimberlites and other contiguous interests that are all adjacent to the De Beers Victor Diamond Mine.
