ARGENTINA DRILL RESULTS FROM 134 HOLES DUE IN JAN.A MAJOR GOLD PROSPECT IN ARGENTINA.FULLY FUNDED.AND PROSPECTS IN CHILE AND ECQUADOR.

Interesting day. Shot up over 20p around 2.00PM, eventually settling up 2p on the day. Could only get a further 5000 online from Barclays Stockbrokers, just before the close. Tried for more but that was their online limit. Makes me think that something is afoot!

Barclays seem to be using PLUS markets these days as the last trade was mine:

Nice finish to the day, especially as the market in general had a torrid time. 19.50p is yet another closing high!
