<<Mike completed a metallurgical study today at the mine with Gene McClelland of McClelland Labs.>>

I wonder whether this is a "chain of custody" study to verify that the ore is indeed amenable to gravity concentration. Such proof would raise a few eyebrows and do the company a world of good. But if such is the case, I hope the extent of Fitzsimonds' involvement was to point to the ore, point to the machine, and say, "let us know how it turns out."

This is the type of statement, made on behalf of Novagold, that would help a lot:

"In other news, McClelland Labs, Inc. of Reno, Nevada has released their report and recommendations on the comprehensive metallurgical testwork completed on the Donlin Creek Deposit. Gene McClelland, president and Chief Metallurgist of McClelland Labs stated ``the results of the metallurgical testwork completed on the representative Donlin samples definitively show that a conventional sulfide flotation concentration followed by pressure oxidation of the concentrate and CIL cyanidation for gold recovery would be effective for the higher grade Donlin Creek ores.''
