Russ, I'm fairly new to precious metal markets.

The recent volatility in the spot price is overall a good sign, is it not? Nobody shoots at a dead duck and all that?

We'll have to endure these corrections. I sure wasn't smart enough to see it coming it this time (or most of the other times, either).

Pele Mountain Resources Inc.: Drilling Commences at High Grade 'Pele Zone'
Wednesday February 5, 3:47 pm ET

TORONTO, ONTARIO--Pele Mountain Resources Inc. (TSX Venture:GEM - News; "Pele") is pleased to announce the commencement of a first phase, 500 meter drill program at its 100% owned Ardeen Gold Mine Project, located 110 kilometers west of Thunder Bay, Ontario. The first drill target is a geophysical anomaly near the intersection of two gold bearing structures one of which is the Pele Zone. The Pele Zone is a shear zone, up to 10 meters wide, that hosts high grade gold bearing quartz veins which are the extension of the vein system that was mined in the Ardeen Gold Mine, Northern Ontario's first producing gold and silver mine.

After completion of the first hole the drill will be relocated approximately 700 to 800 meters east on the Pele Zone to test an area where previous drilling by Pele has intersected values of up to 33.3 grams gold per tonne over a 1.45 meter core length. The purpose of drilling in this area will be to test the high-grade gold bearing quartz veins as well as the potential for wider zones of mineralization. Split cores will be assayed for both gold and silver content and half of the core will be preserved.

Pele is a Canadian mining exploration and development company and a leader in the search for economic diamond deposits in Northern Ontario. Pele controls a 100% mineral rights interest in the 101 square km Festival Diamond Property, which is located 25 kms north of Wawa. Pele also owns a 100% interest in two gold projects in northwestern Ontario. This press release had been reviewed and approved by Peter Dimmell P.Geo., a Qualified Person and a Director of Pele.
