Yeah looks like I bought em back too early.
Don't feel bad, I could tell you a real horror story but my ego won't allow me.

Wed 12 Jul 2000 News Release
Mr. Harry Barr reports
Eight additional diamond drill holes (RV14- RV1 9) have now been completed
in the Dana Lake area for a total of 1348 metres (4423 feet). The current
phase II drill program will comprise approximately 12 holes for a total of
2500 metres (8200 feet) and is expected to be completed by July 20, 2000.
Core splitting and sampling is in progress and assay results will be
reported over the coming weeks.
The Phase II drill program is planned to expand our knowledge of the depth
extent, attitude and true width of the mineralization within the Dana Lake
area.
Additional holes are being drilled on many of the previously drilled
sections and I.P. targets north of hole 8 are also being tested. At least
one drill hole will test the Trench Zone which has not been drilled before.
Surface grab samples from the Trench Zone assayed as high as 13.4 grams per
tonne
Subsequent to completion of the phase I drill program, extensive stripping
and sampling was completed to expose mineralization of line 600 and line
700. Results of the sampling will be reported as received.
Stripping has also commenced over our various induced polarization (I.P.)
targets situated south of Dana Lake, which were delineated during a
regional I.P. survey. This has exposed mineralization of a similar style
and setting to that seen at Dana Lake.
Results of the Phase II drill program will be plotted and interpreted
during the period of July/August.
Drill programs, and all other aspects of the exploration program at River
Valley, are carried out by PFN, the program operator following consultation
with Amplats.
Every hole in the Phase I, 13 hole program intersected significant platinum
group metal (PGM) values over substantial core lengths. hole RV-8. the most
northerly hole drilled, intersected the longest mineralized section in the
drill program, with an intercept of 130.5 metres (428.2ft) of 1.21 g/t PGM
(Pt+Pd+Au+Rh) which includes higher grade intersections of 7.20m (23.60 ft)
of 3.42 g/t PGM, 0.16 per cent Cu, 0.02 per cent Ni and 28.60m (93.8 ft) of
2.l8 g/t PGM, 0.17 per cent Cu, 0.03 per cent Ni.
The River Valley project is funded through an agreement with Anglo American
Platinum Corporation Limited (Amplats), the world's largest platinum
producer, which can earn a 50-per-cent interest in various PFN properties
in the Sudbury area by paying $300,000 for the option (payment made) and
spending $4-million on exploration; a 60 per cent interest by completing a
feasibility study; and 65 per cent by financing the property through to
production. In addition to funding, Amplats is providing PFN with technical
expertise in its search for platinum group metal deposits. PFN remains
operator of the projects. Amplats is funding a minimum $1-million
exploration program on River Valley and other PFN projects in 2000.
