HI TM,

Checked our favorites against their moving averages this am. Both have now moved through their 200 day moving averages. EN has moved through more strongly than FN. I think we will have a good summer.

Euro-Nevada reports record revenues and earnings for the year and quarter
ended March 31, 1999, despite the continued weakness in the gold market.
Euro's 50% owned Ken Snyder Mine that was in production for the final two
months of fiscal 1999, generated revenues to Euro of $7.1 million during this
tune-up period. The Ken Snyder Mine is projected to produce 250,000 ounces of
gold equivalent per year at a cash cost of US$80 per ounce of gold equivalent
and a total cost, including all depletion and amortization of capital costs,
of US$120 per ounce.
Euro-Nevada is a leading international gold company with a 50% interest
in the Ken Snyder Mine and royalties in the foremost gold producing regions of
North America, including the Carlin Trend, Getchell Trend, Hemlo and Eskay
Creek. Euro also holds producing gold royalty interests in Australia and
