RE: Big stones, big excitementI read this article the other day. It made me laugh.
SHORE GOLD (www.ShoreGold.com) of Saskatoon has been issuing press releases at a great rate about its Star kimberlite project near Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. In February the company had news of 74 diamonds over 1 ct, the largest ones weighing in at 4.55, 4.75, 4.32 and 4.28 ct. Diamond exploration and development is an expensive undertaking, and this month Shore Gold announced that it had raised $116.6 million for further work at the Star project. NEWMONT MINING OF CANADA subscribed to $50.9 million of the offering and gained control of 9.9% of Shore shares. This looks like a win/win deal: junior Shore gets financing to advance its project and the world's largest gold producers gets a toe-hold in diamonds.
4.75 was the largest diamond? This writer needs to learn how to do his job better. There were lots of stones bigger than 4.75. Remember?????/
Heres a link for 3 any way.
