Not the news that we were hoping for. However, the exploration team can now move on to concentrate on tracking down the other kimberlites that are known to be closeby on the property.

I have a feeling that AK may not get his wish for another look at the DMS reject, unless the geochem results indicate that courser diamonds may indeed be present in the kimberlite.

As many have said, this is a junior exploration play, so it is not plain sailing, even at the best of times.

I am still here for the long term, though it may take many more months for the s/p to recover. No doubt, we will have to wait for the next kimberlite discovery.

In the meantime, I am looking forward to the next drilling season. This is when SNO will be able to capitalize upon the preparatory work being put together during the current summer exploration program.

Good luck to all...peterjr
