The critical and specialty minerals stocks box score on Friday was a mediocre 80-92-138 as the TSX Venture Exchange fell three points to 954. Harry Barr's New Age Metals Inc. (NAM) slid eight cents to 37 cents on 1.22 million shares. There was no news today, but earlier this week the company said it had a tentative deal, subject to due diligence, to acquire an option on the Lavender Lake and South Gibi properties in the Kenora district of Northwestern Ontario. The arrangement -- if the weasel family passes without gnawing it away -- will consolidate the company's ground on what it calls the Bonanza Ridge critical minerals and gold project.

Mike Taylor's Slam Exploration Ltd. (SXL) rose one cent to 10 cents on 405,000 shares. The company has a new intercept at its Goodwin copper, nickel and cobalt project, near Bathurst in northeastern New Brunswick. This latest intercept returned 0.37 per cent copper, 0.38 per cent nickel and 0.05 per cent cobalt, an equivalent copper grade of 0.96 per cent, across a 74.8-metre near-surface interval.
