No geo here, but as yourself was pleased with the drilling on the east side so far. The higher up the mineable mineralization is at Aq east the less uneconomical strip. (which no doubt I agree a mountain can be moved but not without cost to the overall economics) The majority of strip would be in this location from the few pics I have seen of Aquila. There is a really good one in the 43-01 document filed on sedar showing the East area sort of opposite view that his photo ziggy posted a time ago.

This view from space of the Toquepala copper mine in peru looks topographically very similar to the Aqulia. Interesting enough the road in to the mine appears about a third of the way down which to me looks earily similar to the layout of the Aquila claim.

This photo of the same mine Toquepala has a more horizontal look. As you can see they can go fairly vertical I assume very dependant on the type of wallrock. Less fractured the steeper etc.

Ques: Did they include an updated drill location map of where the las 3 holes are too be drilled? Last one was pdf format and I do not have ability to view word doc which the latest map update was... Might have to download the free office program yet..
