Gold Inventory

     
 

The Company’s test production in past years has yielded gold dust and gold nuggets. Gold dust has yielded sales prices equivalent to the spot gold price. Gold nuggets, however, are considered to be gem or jewelry items, which in the industry sell at a higher price than the spot price. They are valued according to weight, purity, character, and relative flatness (wearing quality). Historically, the Company’s gold nuggets have sold at prices above the spot gold price. The following is a summary of gold inventory changes during the nine months ended August 31, 2011, and during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2010:
