Hank:

Thanks for the lesson in silver fire assays. I do not have that depth of knowledge and so didn't pick up on the incongruity. Gary S. is an economist, I think, and does not profess extensive geologic knowledge. Which is why I prefer to talk to a principal in the co. who is a geologist.

I can't explain this so I will get back to them as soon as I can. Bottom line is the drill results have been slower than we would have expected. I suspect this explanation error is just that. They have been using Omac Labratories in Ireland all along, which I assume is fully accredited. Their web site is www.omaclabs.com and shows iso 9002 certifiction of Laboratory Proficiency from the Standards Council of Canada. The site shows all the methodologies they use which I can't appreciate. Thanks again for picking up on this I will ask for clarification.

Cheers,
Ogi

Here's another page of their site regarding Gold analysis.
