Hi Dak,
I am warming up on the key board here for a nice hike around Mt. Hood today.

<<Portland Wilderness
Salmon-Huckleberry Wilderness


Adapted from
America's Wilderness
by Buck Tilton


The main attraction in this Wilderness, the Salmon River dives splendidly over numerous waterfalls, luring fishers hoping to hook steelhead and chinook and coho salmon. The drainages of the South Fork Salmon River and Eagle Creek stand cloaked in a dense rain forest of Douglas fir, true firs, western red cedar, and western hemlock with a thick understory. Volcanic plugs, pinnacles, and cliffs distinguish the area's sharply dissected ridges.
Much of the water in this area runs off of Huckleberry Mountain in the northern portion. To the south is Salmon Butte, a striking 4,877-foot landmark with a fine view from the top that can be reached by trail. Mule deer and black bears find winter range hidden In the area's wild off trail country. >>>>>

We need to hit the mutha load like you say. Maybe just methodical drilling will do. MMGG has drilled 30,000 meters and has 11 mill AU equiv in zinc. That is a load.

I just reviewed the projects liller has drilled out for gammon and mexgold. He embarks on 30,000 meter campaigns at once so I am hoping by year end he has geared up for one this size on GGC's land. Will he hit a ARU? I doubt it but he may find the goodies.

<To date, the deposits at Ocampo are defined by 167,000-metres of drilling in almost 1000 holes.>

<To achieve these objectives, Mexgold has launched a 60,000-metre exploration and development drilling program>

<Mexgold has initiated an exploration drill program, initially planned for 10,000-metres, but expanded to 30,000-metres in response to significant high-grade results from the first round of drilling.>

It appears to me that Mr. Liller knows how to run a large drill program with many drills at once and does it successfully. Go Genco.

if this is on your slate, it's a load, mother

"Today, very few people are engaged in mining activities and the mining is seen as a colorful part of the past. Tourism and wine production are the money and lifestyle industries of the day. Bedrock mining is not sustainable today, on a large scale, even though high-grade gold deposits remain."

The Indata property, located northwest of Prince George, BC has been owned by Eastfield or it's associated company, Wildrose Resources Ltd., since 1986. Its 146 claim units covering 3,650 ha (9,000 acres) are road accessible. A significant lode gold discovery made in 1987 was instrumental in causing Placer Dome Canada to complete two corporate private placements in Eastfield in 1988 and 1989 (300,000 shares at $1.10 a share and 300,000 shares at $2.00 a share).

Castillian Resources Corp. and Aberdeen International Inc., have an option to earn a 65% interest in the project by completing $1,000,000 in exploration before 2008.

At Indata, drilling completed between 1987 and 1989 included a number of significant gold intercepts along a 600 m strike length. The predominant structural break hosting the gold mineralization at Indata (identifiable by geophysical and geochemical signature) has been defined over a distance of 1,000m from the most northerly drill hole and remains to be drill tested.

Aberdeen funded the 2005 program that consisted of 254 metres of drilling in two holes. The drill program was problematic and the most important hole, targeting deeper levels below hole 98-4 with 154 metres grading 0.20% copper was abandoned after repeated unsuccessful attempts to drill through a fault zone. The second hole, drilled 1600 metres to the south, returned narrow intersections of 0.12% copper. Several styles of mineralization exist on the Indata property including gold-silver veins and porphyry style copper (gold) mineralization hosted in volcanic rocks and granodiorite intrusions. Hole 1988-4, drilled in 1988 and located in an adjacent gold structure, intersected 4 metres grading 47.260 g/t gold.
