Hi Jesse and Gang,

The cutoff of 1.2mm was noted but also the quote:

"...The effective grade of 11.78 carats per 100 tonnes is considered disappointing, and indicates that kimberlite K-14 would be unlikely to support an economically viable mining operation."

I think we can kiss another promising pipe goodbye.

There are plenty of new pipes out there but I don't feel we will get the reaction we got when ACA announced good counts. People, I feel, don't really believe the low costs for production in comparison to the NWT. They will continue to want to see NWT-type counts.

Remember gang that a completely different diamondiferous field has been discovered in Alberta (re:MEO). ACA is/will be drilling targets on that same fault. The play isn't dead...what you have is a wounded tiger with a lot of fight left!!!

It has been tough!!!!

See ya'll in the Bahamas yet!!!!
