The diamond and specialty minerals stocks box score for Wednesday was a weak 65-79-114. The TSX Venture Exchange gained two points to 838 while polished diamond prices were steady. Ken MacNeill and George Read's Shore Gold Inc. (SGF) lost 1.5 cents to 17.5 cents on 254,000 shares. The company's stock remains stuck below 20 cents as its silence continues. A promised feasibility update is now well overdue.
Chuck Fipke and Chad Ulansky's Metalex Ventures Ltd.

De Beers expects Victor, which has been operating for the past decade, will have been mined out by the end of 2018.
