While Scotgold Resources (SGZ) presses on with its projects for extracting gold and silver at Cononish and other deposits in the Argyle region, AIM investors might soon have the opportunity to speculate on another Scottish gold digger. Dr. Paul Dougan, a lawyer and scientist in the resources field, is currently seeking to raise £2 million at 25p in a pre-float funding for Scotia Exploration, whose stated ambition is to be ‘in full production of gold from the southern uplands of Scotland in the third quarter of 2016’.

Let me get this straight. They don’t know if there is any gold there. They don’t know how much it would cost to dig or where exactly to dig. They are backed by a man with a track record of failure in this area.
But, Scotland the Brave, Braveheart, thistles and kilts, hooray……….
I’ll be passing on that particular opportunity.
