RMI is a remote procedure call (RPC), which allows Java objects (software components) stored in the network to be run remotely. on the TSX Venture exchange TSX Venture Exchange Originally called the Canadian Venture Exchange (CDNX), this was a result of the merger of the Vancouver and Alberta stock exchanges. The goal of TSX Venture Exchange is to provide venture companies with effective access to capital while protecting investors. . Mirabel is adopting the new name in order to strengthen the company's corporate identity by realigning the name to encompass its unique and patented thermal fragmentation process. "Although our company name and symbol are changing, all core elements of the company will remain the same. We are extremely excited about these changes as they will differentiate us by providing a more cohesive and recognizable identity", stated Mr. Donald Brisebois, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Mirabel. About Thermal Fragmentation When considering that many narrow-vein ore deposits cannot be extracted economically by using existing mining methods, thermal fragmentation, therefore, becomes a viable selective mining approach. Thermal fragmentation consists in the enlargement enlargement, n an increase in size. enlargement, Dilantin, n.pr See hyperplasia, gingival, Dilantin. enlargement, idiopathic, n of a 15-cm hole previously drilled with an ITH-drill. The technology utilizes the heat generated by a powerful burner A drive that writes write-once optical discs such as CD-Rs and DVD-Rs. A "burner" implies a one-time recording, but the term is erroneously used to refer to drives that "write" to re-recordable CD-RW and DVD-RW/+RW media as well. See burn, CD-R and DVD-R. , powered by diesel fuel and air. This creates thermal stresses that spall the rock. In simple terms, spalling is considered as a form of decrepitation de·crep·i·tate v. de·crep·i·tat·ed, de·crep·i·tat·ing, de·crep·i·tates v.tr. To roast or calcine (crystals or salts) until they emit a crackling sound or until crackling stops. v.intr. caused by an unequal expansion of rock crystals that overcomes molecule cohesion. The thermal reaction allows for the enlargement of the hole to the total width of the vein by breaking the rock in a spalling effect. This technology has been used in Russia for over 30 years in large-scale open pits for the drilling of large blastholes. Use of this technology in selective ore extraction is a definitive plus for precious metal properties that would otherwise be uneconomical using existing mining methods. Thermal fragmentation can also be employed in surface bulk sampling. Many exploration projects, especially multiple vein deposits, are very difficult to evaluate with diamond drill holes. By using thermal fragmentation, it is possible to recuperate re·cu·per·ate v. To return to health or strength; recover. bulk samples at very specific locations. Initially, diamond drill holes are used to delinate multiple vein areas, followed by thermal fragmentation bulk sampling. The representative value of the in-situ grade obtained from this bulk sampling could be used in converting ore resources into ore reserves. Therefore, with this approach, stripping of waste rock is significantly diminished, as well as dilution. The resulting surface environment impacts are minimal and preparation costs are kept as low as possible. Rocmec's growth strategy is to focus on the development of quality assets that will significantly enhance shareholder value. Exploitation of narrow high-grade precious metal quartz veins with it's exclusive thermal fragmentation process coupled with conventional mining methods will lead the Company in becoming a mid-size gold producer. The acquisition, development and future exploitation activities at the recently acquired Russian Kid property are an excellent example of this strategy. Rocmec mining Inc., is a Canadian junior exploration company actively involved in the acquisition, exploration and development of precious metal projects. The Company's exclusive thermal fragmentation process combined with its growth strategy place it as the partner of choice for the development of narrow high-grade precious metal quartz vein properties.
