MM, thanks for your concise and informative posts. What I have gathered is:

Shallow drilling program is 50% complete. If shallow drilling did indeed start on or around Aug 17, it's taken 3 months to get to 50% complete, so it will take another 3 months to complete the shallow drilling phase, i.e. it will finish around mid-to-end of Feb, 2012. In my estimation by the time the assays are processed by the (very busy) labs, the results compiled, analyzed, and released, we are looking at April-May before the results of the shallow drilling program are released to the public. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I read in numerous posts/tweets that the results will be released together, by phase, and not one drill core at a time.

Springtime, 2012 is approximately when we'll see results, IMO!
