I had an opportunity to chat with company officials at a recent gold show, and I was also quite interested in the rare metals project. Apparently, the price of tantalum has doubled in the current year, and their project has an excellent chance to host a sizeable deposit, featuring tantalum as the main metal. This is in addition to the PGM play near the PDL mine. It does indeed seem that PDL is quite interested in this project. If the drill results are successful, it would make sense for PDL to get involved and eventually take over HLM, at least as far as this project is concerned. Regards, and awaiting drill results: Dan
