today with gold and silver down, all of the larger gold and silver stocks were down, and most of the exploration companies, too. most but not all. these were up.
anatolia +4.6%
aquila +26.4%
farallon +28%
genco +11.4%
tyhee +3.8%
western copper +25.0%
it looks like even some of the mining companies at the bottom of the food chain are drawing interest, and on a day the metals were down. a couple of months ago that would have been impossible, with exploration companies selling off even on good drill results. with any luck investors may be starting to realize how oversold this sector is.
