The critical and specialty minerals stocks box score for Thursday was a horrid 41-133-136 as the TSX Venture Exchange crashed 52 points to 983. Almonty Industries Inc. (AII), now finally a tungsten miner in South Korea, slumped $1.93 to $17.36 on 1.89 million shares in silence. Mink Ventures Corp. (MINK), a nickel, copper and cobalt explorer in Northern Ontario, bucked the trend, adding 1.5 cents to 29 cents on 263,000 shares.

Vancouver-based Chris Anderson's Great Atlantic Resources Corp. (GR) added one-half cent to 15 cents on 58,000 shares. The company finally has assays from stream sampling completed nearly two years ago at its Kagoot Brook cobalt project in north-central New Brunswick. Ten consecutive samples collected over a 900-metre-long section of a local stream, the company enthuses, returned anomalous cobalt values ranging between 149 and 610 parts per million, thereby confirming reported anomalies. Five consecutive samples, Great Atlantic added, ranged between 360 and 610 ppm cobalt.
