Home owner installs Green Roof Paks, designed by Green Roof Blocks, on residential garage roof

PRLog (Press Release)– Jun 28, 2011– St. Louis, MO: Excitement was building early one recent Spring morning as home owners in a beautifully restored historic home on Park Avenue in Lafayette Square awaited the arriv audi al of materials for a green roof for their newly built garage.  The garage, constructed of brick and designed to match the home, was specifically designed and co chrysler nstructed with a flat roof reinforced to bear the weight of Green Paks, provided by Green Roof Blocks of Lake St. Louis, MO.  The arrival of the green roof had been patiently anticipated for two years, after the home owner had secured the necessary construction approval from the Lafayette Square Home Owner's Association and various City of St. Louis government departments.  

A special crane, provided by a local roofing supplier, Roofers Mart Inc., was carefully backed into the narrow alley at the back of the garage and the Green Paks, filled with growth medium, were hoisted onto the garage roof and placed on the special drainage mat, installed over the roof's surface earlier that morning by Kelly Luckett, President of Green Roof Blocks, and his crew. The job required maneuvering the crane carefully around many electrical wires and poles but Roofer's Mart's crane operator and Kelly Luckett's crew deftly hoisted and installed the Green Paks on the roof. Paving stones were installed to form a patio area and a walkway which would allow the home owner access to the rooftop where they wish to plant a vegetable garden in some of the Green Paks.  A ladder was secured into place, allowing the home owner convenient access to the rooftop vegetable garden.  The home owners plan to plant Sedum in the Green Roof Paks that are not dedicated to the vegetable garden.

According to Kelly Luckett, President, Green Roof Blocks, "This is the first green roof we placed in an urban environment, designed specifically for the home owner to plant a vegetable garden. In addition to the benefits that the green roof provides, such as absorbing heat from the sun and eliminating up to 50% of the storm water runoff, the home owner reclaimed otherwise unused space on their garage roof to grow food."   Typically, in urban areas, rain water slides off roofs into gutters and travels paths along streets, into sewer systems and ultimately filters back into drinking water. Water causes soil erosion, rust, and other environmental damage along the journey. It is contaminated by car emissions, asphalt, roof tar, and other pollutants that make their way into the waste s aston martin ystem. Green roofs are designed to reduce storm water runoff at the source by returning over half of the runoff back to the atmosphere through the transpiration of the plants, rather than allowing it to auto part simply flow from the roof's surface.

The green roof system installed at the Park Avenue residence is composed of Green Roof Paks provided by Kelly Luckett, LEED, AP, GRP, President, Green Roof Blocks (website www.greenroofblocks.com ).The Green Roof Paks may be placed to accent a rooftop courtyard or fully cover a low slope roof after the weight bearing limit of the structure is analyzed. They are an ideal organic solution for low slope roofs of all kinds.

Green Roof Blocks, located in Lake St. Louis, Missouri, manufactures self contained, portable units that 1086274749  can be arranged and rearranged as the building owner sees fit. The Green Roof Blocks module is a 24" x 24" container fabricated of high grade anodized aluminum. The Green Paks module is a fabric planter system made from knitted high density polyethylene. Both systems are planted with durable and drought resistant sedums in four inches of proprietary growing medium custom blended to sustain plants for the life of the system.

New Market Research Report: Botswana Mining Report Q3 2011

PRLog (Press Release)– Jun 21, 2011– New Mining Licences To Boost Botswanan Output The Botswanan mining industry received several positive pieces of news during the first half of 2011, with Gem Diamonds being awarded a 25-year mining licence for its Gope diamond project in central Botswana and African Copper receiving an interim mining licence to develop its Thakadu coppersilver deposit. Lucara Diamond Corporation also announced that it would be commencing full production at its AK06 diamond mine by early 2012, with expectations that the mine should produce 400,000 carats of rough diamonds during its first year of operations. Commissioning of the mine is scheduled to start during Q411.

These positive developments follow in the wake of the earlier announcement by Australian copper miner Discovery Metals that it will be commencing construction on its Boseto copper project within the Kalahari copper belt, with the company's bankable feasibility study (BFS) calling for throughput of some 3mn tpa of copper and silver ore over five years.

---------------------------------------------------- --------Full Report Details at - http://www.fastmr.com/prod/171456_botswana_mining_report ... ------------------------------------------------------------

Gem Diamonds has stated that construction at the mine site at Gope will start this year, with diamond production set to commence in 2013 at an initial rate of 100,000 carats per annum aston martin , increasing over time to a 'peak steady state' production of 780,000 carats per annum.

Against this backdrop, we made some upwards revisions to our copper production and export forecasts earlier in the year to reflect this new output from Boseto and we have also now made an upwards revision to our diamond production and export forecasts to take account of Lucara's higher output from the AK06 mine from 2012 onwards and Gem's higher output from 2013 onwards.

Diamonds continue to be the mainstay of Botswanan mining at present, with figures from the Bank of Botswana released in February 2011 showing a 39% increase in diamond exports over 2010, to reach US$3.01bn.

Botswana Still Favoured By BMI

Botswana remains the highest-rated African country in our Business Environment Rankings for Q311, with a score of 66.7 points out of 100. The country has a stable political situation and a well-developed mining sector, backed up by a sound regulatory framework.

Moreover, tax rates remain relatively low on a regional basis and the country has relatively flexible labour regulations, which should also bolster growth. Our positive view on Botswanan mining is shared by the influential Fraser Institute, which has placed Botswana in 14th place (out of 79 jurisdictions) in its Policy Potential index, as contained within its Survey of Mining Companies 2010/11, published in March 2011. Botswana saw an increase in its score to 74, up from 66.5 in the previous year. In terms of current mineral potential (assuming current regulations and land use restrictions), Botswana was ranked 7th out of 79, underlining the substantial mineral base that is ready to be developed in country.

Country Overview

Exploitation of rich mineral reserves, especially diamonds, has been a significant driver of Botswana's economic growth. Diamonds, along with copper and nickel, are major focus areas in metal and mineral exploration, and earn more than three-quarters of the country's export revenues. More recently, coal and uranium have al dodge so emerged as key future revenue generators for the Botswanan mining industry.

The authorities in Gabarone have an impressive track record in garnering the maximum benefit from the production of diamonds, and we expect this trend to continue over the coming decade. Diamonds currently dominate the economy but, with output set to decline over the medium term as reserves dwindle, the government has enacted a number of measures to ensure that revenues are used to aid diversification. For example, a fiscal rule has been adopted which states that mineral revenues must be used to expand the economy's productive base, rather than fund consumption expenditure. Owing to this rule and other initiatives enshrined in successive six-year National Development Plans and the long-term policy Vision 2016, growth in the non-mining sectors is burgeoning.

Industry Forecast

We are positive on the outlook for the Botswanan mining sector over our forecast period to 2015. Diamond output will remain the mainstay of Botswanan mining production, boosted by new projects being planned by both Gem Diamonds and Lucara Diamond Corporation, however, there are also key mining projects being developed in the copper, uranium and coal sub-sectors, such as Discovery Metals' Boseto project. We believe that the sector can show an average annual growth rate of nearly 10% over the 2011-15 period, with the industry reaching a value in excess of BWP60bn (US$10bn) by 2015.About Business Monitor International
