Skyharbour, Placer to begin Baird second round drilling

Placer Dome Inc PDG
Shares issued 480,970,071 Oct 20 close $18.57
Tue 21 Oct 2003 News Release
See (SYH) News Release
Mr. Don Huston of Skyharbour reports
SKYHARBOUR/PLACER DOME AGREE TO PROCEED WITH AN ADDITIONAL DEEP HOLE
PROGRAM ON THE BAIRD PROPERTY IN RED LAKE, ONTARIO.
A drill crew has been mobilized on to the jointly held
Skyharbour/Bayfield's Baird property. This project is currently under
option to Placer Dome, whereby, Placer must spend $800,000 by Dec. 31,
2004, to earn 51 per cent of the Baird property. An initial round of
drilling consisting of nine holes and approximately 10,000 feet was
completed in the spring of 2003. As announced in September, the companies
have agreed to proceed with a second round of drilling revised to
approximately 7,500 feet in total. All work for 2003 has been financed by
Placer Dome and Skyharbour is the operator. A larger drill rig has now been
moved on to the Baird property that has the capabilities of drilling to
depths of 4,000+ feet to be able to complete the planned deeper hole(s) for
this phase of the program. These holes are planned to test an interpreted
structural hinge area (fold) that was identified from the spring 2003 drill
program. The target area is intersected by several structures with
associated alteration and gold values in the mafic/ultramafic rocks. The
geological setting here is considered highly prospective and has positive
trace element signatures throughout the target area. It is interpreted as
displaying many similarities to the known major gold deposits that have
been developed throughout the heart of the Red Lake area.
The Baird property represents an attractive geological setting with an
excellent opportunity for the discovery of gold-hosted formations in the
known ultramafic features. The Baird property is located four kilometres
north of the past producer Madsen-Red Lake mine (2.5 million ounces at 0.28
ounce per ton) and is situated 1.5 kilometres north of the recent discovery
by Placer Dome on its Claude Resources/Placer Dome option now known as the
Treasure Chest zone.

My whole portfolio is primarily metals with the exception of Nortel which accounts for about 25%.
I usually only hold about 6-7 stocks at any one time.
I don't hold mutual funds as they make it difficult to sell.
You just never seem to get out of mutual funds soon enough. Once or twice a year I tend to through everything into cash whenever I get nervous and or want a brake from it all.

I'm getting 8% yield from TAPR.b Trans Alta. I might just put more cash in there.
