Why is all of RoF rushing to do VTEM' s?

Seems like everyone, ( including Noront ) is following FWR's lead and getting on board to fly VTEM's. Nice to know the "home team" had it right from the beginning. Nice to know as well that the home team is ahead of the curve and not playing catch-up.

FYI, I consider Noront, Spider, and Freewest to be one big family: perhaps not equal, but they are inextricably linked by their history of relationships with one another in the RoF, and the fact that they share board members here and there.

And Noront DID state in one of their earlier releases that they would be working closely with their partners to share information and further capitalize on the knowledge base collectively. That seems to be what we are witnessing now.

Perhaps this snippet from the MD & A can further enlighten us on why some EM surveys are effective, and others not so much. I think a multitude of technologies must be employed to maximize the chances of success for this reason. Perhaps I've got it wrong, ( and I'm sure there is no shortage of persons who delight in correcting me, as in the past...) but I'm willing to throw it out there for the group to conduct DD with. If the chromite is an insulator, any time the chromite flow is directly over top the sulphides below, the electrical impulses will be shielded by the chromite.

Chromite is an electrical

insulator; hence there is no electromagnetic expression from the chromite deposit despite the

presence of traces of interstitial sulfide minerals in the massive chromite.

For this very reason, I think this is why Eagle 1 has not been ( so far) duplicated. E1 was outside the chromite flow, on the "throat" of the conduit, was it not? All the other deposits that are potentially hosted by the RoF could be lurking right under the chromite and no one would be the wiser.

Hopefully we can put our heads together and solve another mystery here.
