New York spot gold added $157.60, taking its Tuesday coffee break at $4,667.80. The TSX Venture Exchange jumped 48.71 points to 957.84 and the TSX gold index gained 57.71 points to 905.19 today. Nearly all Canadian gold miners gained ground: Americas Gold and Silver Corp. (USA) rebounded from Monday's hit, adding 79 cents to $7.26 on 4.97 million shares. Orezone Gold Corp. (ORE) also did well, as it added 21 cents to $2.36 on 3.35 million shares. New Found Gold Corp. (NFG) -- trading for about half of what it sold for in late January -- rose 23 cents to $2.60 on 1.74 million shares today.

Shane Williams's West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. (WRLG) added four cents to $1.03 on 5.69 million shares on new assays from the Rowan deposit, near its Madsen mine at Red Lake in Northwestern Ontario. The latest assays, the company cheers, came from the same area that produced 141.5 grams of gold per tonne across one near-surface metre late in January in the 013 vein, and 84.3 grams of gold per tonne over one metre in mid-February from the 006b vein -- a promotional way of telling you that the latest results fell short of those marks. Sure enough, the headline hit today mustered just 19.83 grams per tonne across 1.62 near-surface metres in the 013 vein and 30.59 grams per tonne across a deeper one-metre interval in the 001 vein.
