WEAK BUY

Looking at the second quarter report, ounces produced went up to 23,600, 10.4 g per ton, which is up from 9.1 a year ago. Forecast to produce 75,000 oz. in 2003. Would like to see the trading volume picked up. Could be a takeover target.
Has been a huge disappointment, but has been disadvantaged by the low gold price and the strong Cdn$. Their costs exploded. Things are improving now that they have the shift in the mining technique changed.
Merging with Wesdome Golds (WDG-V) and this is an excellent merger in that you are going to get everything under one roof. You will have two operating mines by the end of this year. One will be in Quebec and the existing one in Wawa. (See today's Top Pick on Wesdome.)
