Firstly, FrankF., I must say you have a lot of class. :) - 2nd, ALL: It's interesting that Ashton's last report included further sample results from the poor showing, and already reported on, kimberlite K-95. This means total sample weight reported from K95 now total 208.3kg, assuming there was no double-dipping. -This shows to be part of their prioritization schema. Can we expect more lab results from WP? (since 180kg have already been reported on K-3)

Ashton's first new kim lab results of Apr.29/98 (anomalies K3, K95, & WP):

ACA's 2nd new kim lab results of May28/98 (K10 - K11 - K92 from one cluster, & K95)

Here is a list (recap) of the locales and other info re. the 9 new kimberlites discovered as part the '97-'98 winter drill program:

We have yet to hear of these 3:

Anom. - Dimensions - Overburden
K-15 _ 600m x 200m _ 42.7m
K-32 _ 100m x 150m _ 90.0m
K-93 _ 350m x 150m _ 79.0m

K-15 is likely in the same cluster as K-11, K-92 and K-10 (see ACA NR 02/26/98). ACA last NR: Kimberlites K-11, K-92 and K-10 are in a cluster centred approximately 30km east of K-14.

K-32 is relatively smaller, with the problem of, as DJ has commented about, less than shallow overburden.
K-93 (also deep) may, along with K-32, be part of the 2nd new cluster??, to the SE of K-14 [vs. K-10, 11, 15, and 92 being east of K14].

The ACA NR of Mar.06/98 including the last 3 Kims whose results are imminent, is here:

J.Kaiser excerpts from his last BFT,
which followed ACA's last Thurs. News:
What is important is that the new cluster is diamondiferous, and as such it improves the probability that Ashton will eventually discover a spectacular pipe...
The positive effect of this news will be to reassure investors that Ashton's fate is not tied to K14 and K91, and stimulate interest in the possibility that diamondiferous clusters are broadly dispersed on the Buffalo Head.

Just for review!
