The assays should/could be ready. It all depends on whether they save them up to be shipped, how they were shipped, and whether or not they were 'rushed'. The assays should start to come in a pretty steady flow now that they have been drilling for a while.

Most systems allow the geophysicist to compiled the data in the field. Somebody with experience can read the raw data as it is plotted and most programs will now spit out the preliminary maps as you go. The investor would never see these but the field crews may use them to refine drilling etc. The time to clean up the data, refine the anomalies and provide a report will depend on the back log of the consultant. Mining is so crazy right now that everyone is backlogged and everyone wants their work first so it may take some time. There is also a tendency amongst companies to keep ground data confidential as it may give them an advantage.
