The northward dash continued today, as bullion bashed through the $4,200 mark early, then paused for afternoon air at $4,209.10, up $67.90 on the day. The TSX Venture Exchange added 9.67 points to 1,027.61, while the TSX gold index surged 27.46 points to 787.55. Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (ASM) did well, adding $1.36 to $9.14 on 3.33 million shares. Novagold Resources Inc. (NG) was strong, adding $1.12 to $14.73 on 4.59 million shares, and so was Allied Gold Corp. (AAUC), which jumped $2.19 to $28.75 on 1.58 million shares. Yes, Allied rolled out its preliminary third quarter operations report, but it was merely "in line with expectations and operating plans."

Jorge Ganoza's Fortuna Mining Corp. (FVI) added 66 cents to $13.54 on 3.28 million shares on word of a preliminary economic assessment of its Diamba Sud gold project in Senegal. The study is based on a resource of 14.15 million tonnes indicated at 1.59 grams per tonne and 6.17 million tonnes inferred at 1.44 grams per tonne, just over one million ounces of gold, of which the company expects to recover about 840,000 ounces over an eight-year run.
