Russ Ford Acquires Ownership of Black Horse Mining 4-31-2006

From Kevin Hoagland:

Over the last few months there has been a lot going on with myself and Black Horse. As you know I recently took a position with Minelab USA, a position I have desired for a number of years as Dealer Development. My job is to help dealers learn to better server their customers with the highest level of professionalism  that each and every Minelab customers deserves.

Taking this position left me in a situation that required me to sell the store. It has taken some time and there was some question as to whether or not the store was going to stay in operation. I had a couple of offers that I refused not because of the deal but because of the person that made the offer. I refused the idea of selling the store to just anyone. I wanted someone that I knew would take care of customers with respect and caring for what they wanted and not what the owner just wanted to sell. There were decision that had to be made and a quiet move was set in motion for the new owner to take over the store.

All of the T's are crossed and the I's are dotted and I would like to introduce to you the only person that I felt could truly take the helm of the Black Horse to give the customers, old and new alike the very best in service.
