I don't think that Ashton would release sample results after each pipe and I don't expect they would hold on to results until the last pipe is complete. Therefore, it is my speculative guess that Ashton may have two set of releases with the results from the nine new discovered pipes. There is a good security at the lab, therefore it is not expected to have any leaks.
Last release was March 23, 1998. It indicated three to six weeks for the lab to review all the samples.
Therefore three weeks would bring us to the end of next week. I don't think results will be ready on April 13, 1998 (which would be three weeks), the sixth week from March 23 would be no later than May 4th, 1998. Therefore, it is a speculative guess that Ashton may disclose a release as early as the week of April 20th, 1998. However, I was hoping that they may results from a few pipes so they can discuss at the kimberlite conference in Africa, which, I think is April 18/19. Lots of good stuff to look forward to. In contrast to what John K, I beleive that we will have fresh news prior to the K14 samples. The ADP play will have constant information in spring and summer of 1998. Lets all keep patient. Looks to me that the markets are watching VIP and MMU real close. If these juniors hit something, rumors will move quickly and you'll see it in the price of the stock before the release is out. IMO, these juniors will be so excited that it won't be difficult for some camp site folks to flood the Cantel and Bell Mobility Networks to place calls to their contacts. As much as it is not right, it has been happening for decades. Therefore, that is one reason I suggest you monitor stocks real close. The result of VIP and MMU to interesect pipes will once again ignite the ADP, including Ashton and Pure Gold. Stay tuned. |
