Looks good, tantalizing. But I told these guys and they thought it
was a joke. drill with a high torque, low speed down hole drill.
The oil industry has been using them for years in difficult
sedimentary formations and it works for them. Granted you pay a 100
bucks a foot but when you count the holes lost and the question marks
all over this deposit and the difficulty defining an open pit with
the holes in the data then you save money doing it that way. It's
either that or go underground and start drifting everywhere.

They have fooled with the deposit long enough. We know there is ore
there. Lets delineate. Lets plan. Any more pussy footing around and
the shareholders are going to start dying. You need to know the depth
width and grade to .007 ounces per ton to plan an open pit.
No surprises. AND the price of gold has to figured accurately for ten
years ahead. Are they up to it? I know you could do a 70,000 ton a day
underground mine there and the pit walls and depth are not a factor.
Sound crazy? Well they did an 80,000 ton a day underground copper mine
in Butte Montana.

Let's go. Time's a wastin'.
