Hi Folks -- First update out of PDAC! -- From a correspondent there:
- - - - - -
The PDAC convention was off to a roaring start at noon today. The ACA booth is well situated, being the closest booth at the Investment Section to the entrance to the Trade Show. A lot of traffic!

John Auston is in attendance, as well as the head of ACA's Vancouver lab and ACA's in-house mineral specialist. Neither ACA's VP of Exploration, nor any of the Project Geologists are in attendance since they are too busy at the property. The rubies, i.e. corundum micro-grains are the big hits along with the indicator suites. No one in the know is even asking to see any diamonds, which are not there anyway. Good core specimens there, showing upper mantle fragments and visible micro-rubies.

-WRT the overburden: it's a big topic, since the newest ACA pipes are proving the drift thickness maps to be accurate.

Rubies, huh? This is new to me. Interesting.

Cheers,
