CAROLIN MINES HAS NEW GOLD ASSAY RESULTS Carolin Mines Ltd said recent assays of tailings at its Hope, British Columbia mine ranged from 0.50 to 0.64 ounces of gold per ton. There were only trace amounts of platinum and palladium, the company said. Carolin said the results sharply disagreed with an earlier assay performed by Intergold U.S.A. Inc which showed 1.0 ounce of gold per ton and 0.50 ounce of platinum per ton. Carolin also said it expects to receive results of further tests and assays of the tailings within two to three weeks.
