The Sunday Telegraph love this one and last week they gave a positive update.

I don't know whether to buy, but the spread has narrowed and the market capital is tiny so it could jump!

I'm dancing in the dfark with this one but I'd appreciate your thoughts?

50p or 5p what will it be?

At 16:42 this evening, for those of us who like the idea of gold prospecting a little something to whet the appetite.. with this and the kimberlite fields currently due to report back we could be in for a very intersting and potentially very profitable couple of months....

TERTIARY MINERALS PLC

DRILLING RESUMES AT KAARESSELKA GOLD PROJECT
IN NORTHERN FINLAND

High Grade Targets At Vanha And Tienvarsi
Near Surface Target At Lampi
Results Expected Early In New Year
_____________________________________________________________________

Tertiary Minerals plc ('the Company') is pleased to announce that a further
drilling programme has now started at its Kaaresselka gold project in northern
Finland where three zones of mineralisation have been identified by previous
drilling in an area 1.1km by 0.6km. This earlier drilling returned a number of
high-grade intersections from both the near-surface weathered zone and the
underlying fresh rock and confirmed that gold mineralisation is distributed over
a wide area.

The new programme will concentrate on the Vanha zone to test for extensions to
high-grade mineralisation encountered in hole 04KD007B reported by the Company
earlier this year (4.90m thickness grading 11.0 grammes/tonne ('g/t') from
74.80m down-hole). Previous drilling results from this zone include 3m grading
7.2g/t gold in hole RC5 and 1.4m grading 22g/t gold in hole R436, both drilled
by the Geological Survey of Finland.

Further drilling will also test for extensions to gold mineralisation
encountered at the south-east end of the Tienvarsi zone where it is open along
strike from Tertiary's drill-hole 04KD005 which intersected 2.75m grading
13.5g/t gold from 15.45m depth.

In addition, trenching and possible follow-up drilling is planned to evaluate
the Lampi zone where the Company has reported an intersection of 10.3m grading
3.88g/t gold near surface but where the geometry of the mineralisation needs
further investigation.

Drilling will continue into mid-December with results expected in January 2005.

why are they shaking the price ? 900 shares traded today and they knock 5% of the value they have done similarly over last three weeks on just about negligible trading they have taken out about 20% now?

Further drift downwards on a 50/50/ buys/sells? This fundamentally effects the anyones investment valuation and I suspect would trip a lot of sell thresholds.So we have low level of trades (buys and sells) price moved down 20+%? Beats me

I think the mms are trying to stimulate some interest as there has been practically no trading for several weeks in TYM

true but they have started drilling for gold in Finland . Planned for completion mid December with results mid Feb so its not like there is nothing happenning

I agree, feel these are remarkably cheap and will head north on positive results.

Time for a few more I think!

I phoned the company this morning and they will make an announcement in around 10 days time. With tantium, gold and diamonds the cupboard is already more than full.


At this price and with such a low market capital the company really does stand out and the buyers have returned today.

Finally, they must be the only mining stock still to be still stuck on the year bottom.

Oh yes, if you like the look buy now, they're quite heady little things once they get going and when they hit 14p the Sunday Telegraph comes in with 'Tertiart Mining a company we backed at 13p last year ..............'

We are still buying -any thoughts.

Wow, 1 million shares have gone through!!!!!!!!!

rab capital just bought in.........

Who?

Help!

Can you explain the price movements?

Over 10p yummy!

How much more is there?

Is 20% in 3 days enough?

I still think they're too cheap!

Any thoughts??

A good start to the week!!

They've widened the spread big style!

The buyers are arriving, but the statement Any thoughts?

The news looks good!

But what does it mean?

Any views on whether to take up the sunrise diamonds offer?

Excuse me as I am one of the novices here but Re: the Sunrise Diamonds offer am I right in thinking that if I take it up and the company's admission to the AIM doesnt materialise I lose out on the shares I applied for?

I mean do I lose the cash I looked to invest basically
