I just got this, for being signed up at Casey Research, I think.
Thought it was interesting. The gold yield is low but the silver yield sounds pretty damn good.
"Argentex Drills 9.00 Meters of 2.63 g/t Au and 682.8 g/t Ag at Marta Noroeste Vein at Pinguino Project"
Vancouver, BC, Canada – September 12, 2011- Argentex Mining Corporation ("Argentex" or the "Company") (TSX-V: ATX, OTCBB: AGXMF) is pleased to release additional drill results from its 2011 exploration program at the Pinguino project, located in the Santa Cruz province of Argentina. The program consisted of 19,704 meters of drilling in 206 holes. To date, the Company has received sample results from 13,943 meters of drilling from 154 holes, with approximately 25 % of holes remaining to be processed in the lab.
Results below are from the most recent 21 holes at Pinguino. All of these holes are located on the Marta Noroeste vein. A map of drill hole collars is available on the Company’s web site at www.argentexmining.com).
"“The Marta Noroeste vein system is approximately 2,600 meters in length and is immediately northwest of two other mineralized veins named Marta Este and Marta Oeste. The vein, which is one of more than 50 veins identified to date, was drilled in the southernmost 1,500 meters of its estimated strike length, with an additional 1,100 meters remaining to be tested. Drilling results from Marta Noroeste continue to yield large mineralized intersections of high-grade gold and silver and will be included in our mineral resource update, which is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2011. This mineralization is found at both shallow depths and deeper within the system, as evidenced by holes which tested down to depths approximately 200 meters below surface,” commented Ken Hicks, President of Argentex. “The Marta Vein system continues to develop into a key area of high grade gold and silver discoveries at Pinguino.”
About Pinguino
Argentex's 10,000-hectare Pinguino property is located in Argentina's Patagonia region, within the Deseado Massif of Santa Cruz province."
To me it's just interesting, this process of extracting metal from the ground.
I don't know much about the miners but I like Argentex name (Argent is French or Spanish for Silver - I think.)

So what mining companies are catching your guys' & gals' interest ?
