I should have also pointed out that the JM-Reef IS presently being mined in the Stillwater Complex by the Denver-based Stillwater Mining Company.

The JM-Reef averages about 2 meters in thickness and averages about 22 grams/ton combined Pd-Pt making it the richest PGM mineable horizon on the planet. The JM-Reef occurs in the Lower Banded Zone stratigrtaphically about one kilometer higher than the chromitite horizons.

Regards, T.

I understand. We have some results of interest however at the Esbarro site that suggests a strong measure of bulk potential just below surface. This coupled with the large, extensive area tested in the surface samples gives me more than just a little hope.

The 14 holes that RTZ drilled at Esbarro averaged 10 meters ranging 1 1/2 to 6 1/2 grams. Altoro's 4 holes were even wider widths: 2.8g for 6.8m, 2.9g for 22.3m, 2.2g over 13.0m, 2.8g over 27.7m. These results are as strong and solid as any out there. And Rockwell pays the future freight to the tune of $7 million.
