Good morning ,just got back from Kap and this is what I found out,
A company from Sudbury was hired , when I do not know ,but this
company is drilling at the 12 or 18 miles in from the highway on
the
Missinabi River ,which ties into the Opasatika River.
This company from Sudbury ,I was told , was hired by PVF .
Apparantly they are going to concentrate in this area of the
Missinabi River,the river is located in Mattice Ont.
All this is close to a phosphate mine that is being built in
Opasatika
about 16 miles off the highway.
The people at the mine are the ones that told me about the drillers
on the Missinabi River looking for Diamonds with strong
indications.
They had a foot of snow Wednesday and the highway was shut
down for
6-hrs , due to a 3 transport accident at the Opasatika River,so
meaning I got in at 5 AM from Kap.
The area in general ,they are just finding out is very rich in
minerals.
Should find out more info next week , because of the Easter
weekend everybody was heading back home. |
