A note from Glen Rodgers, the Sedex geologist commenting on the Irishman property:

GMR: There is a huge arsenic halo. Who knows what the alteration was 1500ft
above Sullivan (it's eroded). AsPy is in the Fors vent, Aspy is in other
vent caps that we know about. Who says the next mine is going to be
identical to Sullivan?

GMR: Beyond a shadow of a doubt it is an ore grade syngenetic intersection.
The only naysayers are those who have not seen the core. The kennecott
field people originally called it syngenetic, bedded,etc but this was
censored at the last minute by somebody in Australia who never saw the core
and is only thinking politics.

GMR: They are there. Kennecott did minimal assaying. This is a trivial
thing for them at this point. (CRA=biggest mining co. in the world)

GMR: I think he means the LMC (LOwer-Middle contact).We have identified 6
other corridor's similar to Sullivan within the last 5 years. We have 80+
years combined Aldridge experience (Kennecott has about 2 years
combined).Why should we give anything away?

GMR: because of topography and Kennecotte's lack of permit preparedness.

GMR: DDH K97-3 was -80degrees at az170.

nothing. Sullivan Time is not being tested because someone in Australia
thinks you can't mine below 2500ft (experts!!!).The are deserves at least
12 holes before passing judgement. A person would be a fool not to own some
