Item 1. Security and Issuer.
Common Stock
Casmyn Corp.
1335 Greg Street, Unit 104
Sparks, Nevada 89431
Item 2. Identity and Background
(a) through (f). This statement is being filed by (1) Mark S.
Zucker, an individual ("Mr. Zucker"), (2) Anvil Investment Partners, L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership ("Anvil"), and (3) Anvil Investors, Inc., a
Delaware Corporation wholly owned by Mr. Zucker, which serves as the General
Partner for Anvil ("General Partner"). The principal place of business of Mr.
Zucker, Anvil and Anvil Investors, Inc. is 100 Wilshire Blvd., 15th Floor, Santa
Monica, CA 90401.
As a result of Mr. Zucker's position as the President of Anvil
Investors, Inc., he may be deemed to have voting and dispositive power over the
Issuer's shares owned by Anvil. Neither this filing nor any information
contained herein shall be construed as an admission by Mr. Zucker of his present
control or influence over or his intent to control or influence the Issuer.
Mr. Zucker's principal business consists of acting as the
President of Anvil Investors, Inc. During the past five years Mr. Zucker has not
been convicted in any criminal proceedings. Mr. Zucker has not been subject to
any judgment, decree or final order enjoining any future violations of, or
prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws
or finding any violation of such laws in a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
Anvil -- Other (available investable cash) ($61,664.00).
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by the Reporting
Persons as set forth herein were purchased for investment purposes. Depending
upon their evaluation of the Issuer's business and prospects, and upon future
developments (including, but not limited to, performance of the Issuer's shares
in the market, availability of funds, alternative uses of funds, stock market
and general economic conditions), any of the Reporting Persons, or other
entities that may be affiliated with any of the Reporting Persons, may from time
to time purchase the Issuer's shares, and may from time to time dispose of all
or a portion of the Issuer's shares held by such persons, or cease buying or
selling such shares. Any additional purchases or sales of the Issuer's shares
may be in open market or privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise.
The Issuer's Preferred Shareholders have approved a
restructuring proposal announced that would establish a fixed conversion price
of $0.04 per Common Share, grant the Preferred Shareholders voting rights on an
as converted basis subject to approval by the Issuer's Common Shareholders and
permit the Company to redeem the Preferred Stock at specified prices. The
proposal contemplates that two of the present members of the Board of Directors
would resign upon approval by the Preferred Shareholders and the remaining two
board members would elect three persons designated by the Preferred Shareholders
as new directors. It is anticipated that Mr. Zucker would be one of the
designees of the Preferred Shareholders. The restructuring proposal will remain
in effect only if approve by the Common Shareholders.
Except as otherwise described in this Item 4, none of the
Reporting Persons have formulated any plans or proposals which relate to or
would result in any matter required to be disclosed in response to parts (a)
through (j) of Item 4.

the Issuer's non-voting Preferred Stock which is convertible into shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock. Anvil has entered into an agreement with the Issuer

Stock which would result in the Reporting Persons owning more than 9.9% of the

Item 2 above, both Mr. Zucker and Anvil Investors, Inc. may be deemed to have
beneficial ownership of the Issuer's shares owned by Anvil.

Zucker and Anvil Investors, Inc. may be deemed to have the power to direct the
voting and disposition of 17,607,694 shares beneficially; Anvil has the sole

owned.

of conversion rights attached to 8,224 shares of the

effected by the Issuer.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings, Relationships, with
Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
Anvil has agreed with the Issuer not to convert any portion of
the shares of Preferred Stock it owns which would result in the reporting
