Resource Stock Roundup: Tuesday, July 29th, 2008
Jul 29th, 2008 | By Doug Casey | Category: Gold MarketThe Chinese water torture for investors long resource related stocks continued during Monday trading on the Canadian Markets.
For the tail of the tape; the TSX Exchange lost 0.59%, while the TSX Gold Index (TSE:XGD) was the lone winner by adding 1.1% and the TSX Venture Exchange, Canada’s largest junior exploration bourse, fell 0.08% with the declining issuers beating out the advancers by a 518 to 412 margin on volume of 128 million shares traded.
Well let’s see. On Friday we reported that shares of Goldsource Mines (CVE:GXS) added C$4.74 to C$8.89 on optimism that economic coal could still be found on its coal permits of the Border property near Hudson Bay, Saskatchewan. Now I am not one to call out the dogs but on Monday the company reported that it hit 23.2 metres of coal in its fifth hole on the project. Pure luck or a little leakage ahead of the news and perhaps the regulators should decide which. Goldsource ended the day up C$0.99 at C$9.88 after hitting an intraday high of C$14.65.
On the area play front, shares of Geo Minerals (CVE:GM) added C$0.055 to close at C$0.255 after the company received a letter from Saskatchewan Energy and Resources stating that of the coal permit applications will be given priority sequence.
Stocks to watch for Tuesday’s session include Hathor Exploration (CVE:HAT) and Terra Ventures (CVE:TAS). The 90-10% partners on the Roughrider uranium discovery zone in Saskatchewan were halted from trading pending news. Hathor closed at C$2.91 up C$0.06 before the halt, while Terra closed at C$0.64 for a C$0.02 loss. More drill results coming so stay tuned.
After a bit of a rest on Friday, the sellers are back using any volume generated to sell stocks. We will see what Tuesday trading has in store.
