With Teck pulling out of Galore Creek they will be  looking for replacement projects. Since they are already funding Geodex's Mount Pleasant West projects they may want to increase their participation in this area. At the moment Geodex are slower than expected in working this property as the drills still seem to be tied up at Sisson Brook. Heavy snow is forecast for the Sisson area for tonight - a sign of early winter there. Mount Pleasant, however, may still be a month away from severe winter weather and can still support a cheap drilling program.

   On the other hand the only real problem with winter drilling in New Brunswick is in providing a water source for the drills. Most of the main logging roads are kept open for winter logging and the only inconvenience in travel is during snow storms which are not that frequent in New Brunswick.
