ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS.
NEW ARCOPLATE PRODUCTION MILL
The Directors of Alloy Steel International, Inc. have been advised by the Company’s Engineering Department that the new Arcoplate Production Mill is expected to be ready for trialing in June 2008.
This is a realistic target date which will only not be met if there is a delay in the supply of machine components from local and international suppliers. At this point in time, we are not aware of any possible delays.
Testing and real time proving production runs are expected to take approximately six weeks, and on this basis, the machine should be producing commercial product prior to the end of August 2008.
As the new production mill has a significant amount of new innovations, including mechanical, electronic and parameter control software, we have allowed additional time of six weeks for proving and tuning.
The Company is at present looking at patent protection for the new innovations.
