I am prepared, but I don't think the release of the first half dozen drill results should be that long, primarily because I am expecting Lori to release the results of shallow drill holes that are not that shallow. Remember the geologist can do field testing as the cores come up. As you know, a poke down to 500 m gets us down to the middle of the giant anomaly. When the first results are released, the average grams (perhaps OZ/ton will be known.) A sharp pencil will tell us x 105 million tons where we stand.

We are told all the geologists, including Quantec, are on Tesoro, and according to the 43101 report they will be interested in exactly where to place the first of the three deep drills, and at what angle. The placement of the second will be based on the information from the first, and so on.

The fact that they are all there underlines my impression that: 1. the shallow results warranted deep drilling for the reasons Sculp explained, and 2. Probably the deep drill is either already there or expected soon, and they want to confirm and prepare for the most likely spot for the first deep drill.

It appears that the ruling in or out of a deep high grade source area has precedence over finding the true bottom of the giant anomaly. (It is open to depth)

As well, they want all this discussed and re-discussed then confirmed so they can all be home for Christmas.
