Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) - It seems old dogs can teach the new dogs a few tricks!! Veteran miners Peter Newton and Peter Cook ("Talkie and Cookie") who made have made their backers a fortune over the years in gold look set to do it again as their diversified miner released its first quarter as a gold producer. Whilst most Australian gold miners are struggling to make profit and have decimated their backers with tumbling share prices, Metals X (ASX:MLX) has nearly doubled its share price over the past 6 months. There has been no 'rant and rave' no big undelivered promises, in fact all we have heard from Cook following the acquisition of the Australian gold assets of Alacer Gold has been "I think we've brought well. Lets see what we can do when we give these assets some love".Metals X has stunned with its first quarter back in gold with an output of 51,287oz of gold produced with a reported total cash cost of sales of $817/oz.
