Shares in Conroy Gold and Natural Resources, an AIM-listed mining company, leapt after the firm discovered two new gold targets at the Slieve Glah licence area in County Cavan, Ireland. The two targets, each of which are over 3km in length, returned anomalous gold values from the assay analysis, which ranged from four parts per billion (ppb) gold to over 300ppb. In Ireland, over 10ppb is considered highly anomalous and typically proves positive for gold-in-bedrock, the firm said.
