Thought I was the only one left following Boulder. While NW and Klondike Star are chasing the mythical Klondike motherload, Boulder is sticking with placer, which has been where 99.99% of all the gold taken out of the Klondike has come from.

It looks like the test mining program has been cut back considerably from what they were projecting in the June 1 press release. Its gone from three 60,000 square meter areas to two areas totalling 50,000 square meters. The sampling program is behind schedule too. But they should still be able to get more than enough data this year to decide whether the project is viable.

What I like about this project is that they are talking capex of $15 million, and could ramp up to production very quickly. It's not one of these giant open pit mines that will take $500 million in capex and 5 years until production.

Howy,
It looks like we have three companies focusing in this area. Maybe one will hit. I like my bet with NW as the Jim McFaull story is quite intriguing. We should know pretty soon if one or all hit.
But boulder is really ramping up here. I better check the stock price.

May the force be with us. <g>
