based on the 2-3 week time frame from hole completion we are just about ready for hole 11 assays to be released. i am told it takes a few weeks to assay the remainder of the hole, a week or so for Victoria crew and legal team to ready the news release and a week for Newmont to review the results and the release also.

it will be very interesting ( as all holes are for us) to see if we hit good or great numbers or just get good feedback on further defining Helen. seems as though with the steep down plunge that we may be going close to or under the pit with this thing( Bemabeemer thinks so) but what do i know? not much but i am learning every day.

a few months back the VIT official chatter seemed to be pretty "up" about hole 11 and it seems to be somewhat more muted as of late. not sure if it is just because of all the other holes going on and the gateway action takes a spotlight away or if it will just be okay as a hole.

can't wait to see.
