I started a new thread called -HOT MINING STOCKS -UNDER $2

Here are the requirements for posting -check it out -it seems to be taking off. I was amazed there was not a thread like this already.

Discussion of hot mining stocks that have a discovery that people are not yet waking up too. To be HOT -they must have drilled at least five holes and have published inferred resource numbers -but have not hired the PR firm yet.
Please post the release where they state that they have confirmed the presence of the resource. JP

ASHTON'S WINTER DRILLING ACTIVITIES COMPLETED

John S. Auston, President and CEO of Ashton Mining of Canada Inc.
("Ashton"), is pleased to announce that Ashton's winter drilling
programs
have now been completed. As previously reported, three new
kimberlites were
discovered in Alberta and one in the Northwest Territories. In
Alberta, the
new kimberlite discoveries are K8, K160 and K252, all on the
Buffalo Hills
property. In the Northwest Territories, the Cygnus kimberlite was
discovered
on the Roundrock property.

Also in Alberta, one tonne of kimberlite was collected from
kimberlite BH225
in the K14 project Area. BH225 was discovered in 1999 and it
contained
elevated microdiamond counts.

The four new kimberlites will be tested for microdiamond content
and BH225
will be analyzed for its macrodiamond content at Ashton's North
Vancouver
laboratory during the second quarter.

At the Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders held in Vancouver
on
Thursday, April 27, Mr. Auston announced his intention to retire
from office
effective May 31, 2000. A successor has been identified and will
be
announced when the appointment is confirmed.
