	Pedra Branca - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pedra Branca or Pulau Batu Puteh (both meaning "white rock" in Portuguese and Malay respectively; Chinese: 白礁) (1°19′48″N, 104°24′28″E) is an outcrop of rocks situated where the Singapore Strait, specifically Straits of Johor, meets the South China Sea, measuring at its longest, during low water spring tide, a mere 137 meters.
		It is known as Pedra Branca in Singapore and Pulau Batu Puteh in Malaysia.
		The island was recorded as early as 1583, by the Dutch voyager Johann van Linschoten, that Pedra Branca is "where ships that come and go to and from China pass in great danger and some are left upon it".

	Pedra Branca Skink
		The vulnerable Pedra Branca Skink has a remarkably restricted distribution, being only found on the barren, widswept island of Pedra Branca, where they feed on small invertebrates and on fish scraps dropped or regurgitated by the seabirds on the island.
		Pedra Branca, which is about 55 m above sea level at its highest point, has a total area of about 2.5 ha but only about 0.14 ha provides suitable habitat for this skink.
		Threats: Pedra Branca skinks face a number of potential threats, including the introduction of rats or other animals to the island, climate change, an increase in the number of silver gulls which feed on the skinks, or loss of food source through a decline in seabird colonies.

	Pedra Branca
		In addition to the Arabian lute, the Indian sitar, tanpura and tabla, the Japanese samissen, the aborigine didgeridoo, the African udu and the Brazilian rattle, Pedra Branca uses instruments that were built by the musicians themselves, as the stringed armesk, made with a biscuit can and a broomstick.
		There is also the flute made with plastic water pipe, which sounds similar to the flute of the indians of the Xingu tribe*; another flute made with plastic water pipe and a balloon filled with water in the end of it; and a yellow conduit, covered with a gourd in the shape of an elephant.
		Pedra Branca (which means White Stone) was a Brazilian indian who became a powerful cure entity after he passed away.

		Pedra Branca is more than a single deposit or area of mineralization.
		Pedra Branca may host a series of PGM deposits that, in aggregate, could constitute a significant new source of PGM production.
		Solitario significantly advanced the Pedra Branca PGM project during 2002 with outstanding drilling results on new, previously undrilled prospects that resulted in exciting new geologic potential for the property.

		This skink lives in only one place in the world, a tiny islet or rocky outcrop known as Pedra Branca Islet which is 26 km off the south-east coast of Tasmania.
		The number of skink on Pedra Branca appears to be decreasing.
		The Pedra Branca skink's main food source is the regurgitate of seabirds.

		Pedra Branca covers approximately 350 square kilometres including a "layered mafic intrusive complex", a rock sequence that is key to hosting economic concentrations of platinum-group metals.
		Pedra Branca represents a ground-floor opportunity to develop and control an entire mineral district containing valuable platinum group metal resources.
		Significant values of platinum, palladium and rhodium have already been discovered by historic core drilling and trenching at Pedra Branca.

		The arrival of US President George Dubya Bush in Singapore was delayed by several hours when Air Force One pilots landed on the island of Pedra Branca by mistake.
		As Malaysia also claims sovereignty over Pedra Branca (the subject of an impending case before the International Court of Justice at the Hague), Kuala Lumpur was insisting that President Bush be arrested for entering Malaysian territory without a valid visa.
		On the contrary, he told the media that it was a blessing in disguise to have wrongly landed on Pedra Branca.
