    I heard a spokesman on about this on the radio this morning, he reckons the yield could be 11oz (330g) per tonne, at today's prices this is nearly $19000 or €14000 per tonne! I find this figure hard to believe as another find in Clontibret only had an estimated yield of 1.5g per tonne.

    If true, do you think the sheiks might buy Wexford off us altogether and pay off the national debt?

    Or is all this just because that part of the country has a higher than normal population of leprachauns?

    Going by the picture they found gold bars in neat stacks, so it should be very handy to mine and transport.

    Wrap up warm though, its bloody freezing down here at the moment.
    I think the only gold in Wexford is in the window of the jewellers, amd even thats questionable

    I never trust these exploration companies claims, it could be a ruse to raise money / share price.
