 PROFILE
Despite depressed gold prices, things are looking brighter for Echo Bay Mines. The company's mines include McCoy/Cove and Round Mountain (50%-owned) in Nevada, Kettle River in Washington State, and Lupin in Canada. Echo Bay has reserves of 4.5 million ounces of gold. It also has 10.9 million ounces of silver reserves at its McCoy/Cove mine. After a $12 million investment, Echo Bay reopened its Lupin Mine in 2000. The company has development projects in the US, the Timmons area of Canada, and West Africa (the Youga/Bitou project). Echo Bay was profitable in 2000 -- its first year in the black since 1994. However, the company's heavy debt burden will remain a challenge until the price of gold rises.
