News Releases From NEX Companies For October 2nd

There was one news release from a NEX company that was picked up by Marketwire on Tuesday, released before the opening of trading, as well as a confirmatory release from a company invoved in a reverse takeover with a NEX company. The first release was from Rocher Deboule Minerals Corp. [NEX: RD.H], and it details Rocher's acquisition of a second niobium property, right next to the one it acquired on Sept. 10th - the Brent claims. This latest acquisition is the Lonnie Carbonatite claims, which has encouraging historical results but no present-day results. According to the press release announcing the purchase of the Lonnie claims, both properties "[cover] all known niobium mineralization in the area." It also discloses that the price paid by Rocher is $10,000 and 100,000 shares of RD.H, subject to regulatory approval. Rocher closed on Tuesday at 45 cents/share, down 2 cents/share since Monday's close.

The Marketwire-disseminated release that mentions a NEX company is from Transeuro Energy, and it concerns the reverse takeover by/of Surge Resources Inc. [NEX: SRH.H] which Surge itself reported on Monday. The Transeuro news release mentions that Surge will be moving to Tier 2 of the TSX Venture soon; that Transeuro now has the pre-emptive right to acquire 50% of any subsequent share issue over the next two years; and, that new Surge CEO Hal Hemmerlich is Transeuro's current CEO and President. Also released, through Canjex Publishing, was a SEDAR-filed document, an Early Warning Report [PDF file], which announces Transeuro's acquisition of "30,000,000 common shares in the capital of the Company, representing approximately 53% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company." SRH.H closed on Tuesday at $1.45/share, unchanged since Monday's close.

No NEX companies were mentioned in Tuesday's TSX Venture Daily Bulletins.

[NEX: TMX.H] has announced the appointment of Pierre Besuchet as the new President and as a director, and Debbie Lew as the new CFO of the company.
