She was more than pleasant in her replies to my few questions..

1. I asked if the financing when described as fully described meant that the money was in the bank so to speak.

Her reply: Yes the monoies are fully committed.

2. Was news soon to be released regarding holes 50 and 51 (I new what her reply would be)

Her reply: As predicted they would be released when ready (no indication as to how soon)

3. I asked about drills, how many presently drilling and how many on the way.

Her reply: As per Noront web site there are three presently drilling and a fourth (deep drill) on it's way scheduled for winter drill season.

4. I asked about next weeks luncheon, availability of tickets.

Her reply: They are the hottest ticket in town (her words).

I know I could have asked other questions and probably ones with more substance, but I am happy with the brief conversation I had with Joanne and hope that some of what I have shared helps.

Long and strong and not trying to pump!!!!!
