Yamana Strikes Bonanza-Grade Gold at Martinetas

TORONTO, ONTARIO--Yamana Resources announces that a recently
completed 40-hole drilling program on its wholly owned Martinetas
property, Santa Cruz, Argentina, has yielded bonanza-grade gold on
the Coyote vein with one diamond core hole (DDH) intersecting 5.00
meters of 731.62 g/t Au, including 0.80 meters of 1,594.55 g/t Au
(51.27 oz/t) with 1,780.0 g/t Ag (57.2 oz/t). On a separate target
2 kilometers away, another DDH intersected 47.00 meters of 6.68
g/t Au, including 3.05 meters of 89.53 g/t Au with 98.9 g/t Ag. A
single DDH in a previously untested sector between these two
discoveries hit 16.50 meters of 1.98 g/t Au with 8.9 g/t Ag.

Interesting comment about gold prices from Mining newsletter:

. . . gold demand, mostly for jewelry and investment, is through the roof. Meanwhile, the gold price lags, hitting 20-year lows during May. The low price is spurring investment demand but this isn't being reflected in the gold price. Does this tell anyone else that the gold price is really being controlled by derivatives trading, and not by supply/demand?

Don't know where he got his "through the roof" numbers -- I'd be interested in knowing what industry group (or government) tracks gold demand.
