Could I use this mic on a boom?

I was looking at using this mic for a film I'm shooting on mini dv this summer. My budget for a mic doesn't reallt stretch past the £40 mark and I don't really want to use the on cam mic due to the risk of camera operation-noise pickup etc. Would this mic be suitable for using on a boom or pole of some sort for getting closer to the actors and getting a clearer sound?
Thanks for any info.

 

The mic would be suitable for use on a boom, but a proper boom mount is gonna set you back at least £150 on top of that :/ So I reckon it's just gonna be jerry rigged onto a broom handle best place I've found for buying stuff like that is pro audio systems in bradford, much cheapness and delivery for all sorts of stuff, vast range of kit available
