New York spot gold rose another $14.60 to $1,885.70 on Thursday. The TSX-V nevertheless dropped 13.60 points to 680.20 while the TSX gold index fell 6.99 points to 375.50. Most Canadian gold miners lost ground today, although Newmont Corp. (NGT) was an exception as it added 10 cents to $87.81 on 244,000 shares. The company said today that it will pay a dividend of 25 U.S. cents in September. Pan American Silver Corp. (PAAS) went the other way, dipping $2.23 to $47.66 on 1.63 million shares.

Jean-Marc Lacoste's Monarch Gold Corp. (MQR) lost one cent to 53 cents on 3.71 million shares on word that it drilled a 14.35-metre interval averaging 13.95 grams of gold per tonne at its McKenzie Break project, just north of Val d'Or in northwestern Quebec. The assays, from another four holes, were otherwise lacklustre, with a second hole producing 5.34 grams per tonne over 7.2 metres and the two others managing just a few grams per tonne over one metre each.
