Oh ya..Geomaque's in town and drilling. Obviously they hope to prove the deposit (which has been known for years) to be economic. I have to admit I'm a bit sceptical - the grades look pretty weak to me. Not sure if they will be able to recover that stuff at a profit, unless they put one hell of a lot of it through a mill each day. I can't see making money on anything else other than the palladium, everything else looks way to low a grade to me. But hey - I've been wrong before! Incidently, Freewest does have a property next door (Skipper Lake Property). Thunder Bay prospectors found some better grade PGE (4g/t) from a nice long zone which will be drilled this spring/summer). Even though Freewest's property is much more at the Grassroots stage, I like it better because the grades looks way better (at least initially). Another property within the Complex (which by the way, is only about 40 km wide at best)is the Geordie Lake property owned by LEH Ventures. I'm a bit biased on this one, because I'm one of three prospectors that sold it to them, but it's a property that is similiar to the Marathon (Bamoos Lake, as the local's know it) Property of Geomaques'. They are drilling at this time too, and trying to do the same thing Geomaque is. Marathon is a pretty interesting PGE playground these days, so we shall see how things unfold over the next few months. Keep you posted! Brian
