Eva, Your in with PLY-v @$.30 for 33,333 shares. Chart for Playfair Mining Limited: stockcharts.com[l,a]djcanimy[dc][pc20!b50!b100!b200!f][vc60][iUb14!Ll14!La12,26,9!Lp14,3,3!Lc20] From the chart of PLY we can see that after basing around it's converged MA's for the last 3 months the stock broke out on Friday and is now trading above all it's MA's. The chart indicators are all bullish and a new 52 week high is now in sight. If the volume spike of Friday continues this stock could run a long way to the upside. I will go out on a limb and predict this stock will be on the leader board next week. Looks good Eva. Good luck with this pick, Al

PLY-v...in the news: Re: News Release - Monday, November 26, 2001 Bedrock Confirmed as Source Of Soil Geochem Anomaly =========================================================================== Playfair Mining Ltd. reports that drilling on the 100% owned San Miguel property in central Mexico commenced on November 21, 2001. Playfair's San Miguel property contains the extensive E-1 soil geochemical anomalies and is located about 15 km southeast of the Charcas Mining District. Mines have operated in Charcas for about 400 years and Groupo Mexico, a major mining company, is currently producing 4,500 tonnes daily making Charcas Mexico's largest zinc producer. Playfair drill program is testing the very large E-1 soil geochemical anomalies discovered by Playfair during regional Mobile Metal Ion (MMI) soil geochemical surveys. The anomalies were delineated using conventional soil geochemical surveys. Playfair's exploration work has defined 3 distinct soil geochemical anomalies E1-S, E1-N. and E1-NW. Together the 3 anomalies cover an area of about 11 x 3 km. Peak conventional soil geochemical values were as high as 8.5 % zinc, 4.8% Pb, 0.8% Cu and 146 g/t silver. No analysis for gold was undertaken. Playfair's current reverse circulation drill program is focused on the E1-N anomaly and is designed to discover the outcrop source of the extensive anomaly. The rock types, alteration and mineralization encountered to date in Playfair's drill program are consistent with those of a Carbonate Replacement Deposit (CRD)mineralized system. In the past few months there has been much speculation as to whether the source of the large geochem anomaly was contamination. The company can now confidently state that this is not the case. The drilling to date has provided clear evidence that the soil geochemical anomalies directly overlie their bedrock sources over 60 metres below. The program demonstrates a whole new dimension of exploration for new mineral deposits in overburden filled valleys near major mineral districts in Mexico. Initial drilling tested the sharp western margin of the E1-N soil geochemical anomaly. All holes were drilled vertically. Preliminary field logging of the holes is reported below. Drill Hole SMN001 was located at 2554500N and 289645E. It encountered bedrock at 81 metres and was completed at 93 metres. Dark grey to brown limestone was intersected with calcite stringers and oxides (hematite and limonite) on fractures. The rock was felt to be indicative of a nearby fault zone. Drill Hole SMN002 was located at 2554500N and 289700E (55 metres east of SMN001). It encountered bedrock at 67 metres and was completed at 134 meters. Between 67 and 130 metres strongly hydrothermally altered limestone was encountered with pervasive veins, veinlets and micro veins of quartz and/or calcite occurring throughout the section. Disseminated oxidized pyrite and a zinc mineral were also observed. At 130 metres the drilling intersected a fault zone and from 130metres to 134 metres intersected fresh, unaltered limestone. Drill Hole SMN003 was located at 2554500N and 289810E(110 metres east of SMN002). It encountered bedrock at 69 metres and was completed at 116 metres. Strongly hydrothermally altered limestone was encountered throughout the hole. As in SMN002, pervasive veins, veinlets and micro veins of quartz and/or calcite were throughout the section. Zinc minerals and oxides of sulphides were noted in some sections. Drill Hole SMN004was located at 2554200N and 290000E(190 metres east and 300 metres south of SMN003). It encountered bedrock at 66 metres and was completed at 79 metres. Hydrothermally altered limestone with pervasive hematite alteration was encountered over the full length of the bedrock intersection. The current phase of the drill program of 1500 metres will be completed before Christmas. Samples from the first three holes have been submitted to Bondar Clegg Laboratories for analysis.
