TORONTO - Speculators poured into a small gold play Friday, while a biotech stock popped on a purchase agreement.
Yukon-Nevada Gold shares jumped 15% to 15 cents on Friday after the micro cap miner said its wholly-owned subsidiary, Queenstake Resources USA, Inc., is preparing the Jerritt Canyon gold mine and mill in Nevada for the re-start of milling and processing operations, set to be ready by July 20, to be followed by renewal of underground mining operations in due course.
