Abstract
After little more than one year of exploration Placer Dome has recently announced promising results in its search for gold in Costa Rica. Placer has been working in a new area towards the Nicaraguan border. The target is a low grade, high volume deposit.
The results have sparked renewed interest in Costa Rican gold. Barrick Gold is entering the same area. Canadian junior Lyon Lake also has concessions adjacent to Placer Dome's areas. Its prime deposit is the Beta Vargas property.
