That was a really, really bad adaptation of a good song. Now I won't be able to get those lousy lyrics out of my head for 5 days. Thanks a lot.

My only complaint about Noronto is that they have to hit about 10 lenses of the kind they have hit so far to make a mine. Canadian Royalties has 20 times as much nickel in acceptable grades as they do, and nobody cares. Most of the CZZ stuff is lower grade however. High grades turns the crank most times. But CZZ has 3 million tons of this, 4 million tons of that. I don't know what Noronto has. They also mystified the downturn in the explo of the primary lens when they would not say what happened after their step out holes that probed the plunge and missed. The whole first carrot was only 50 metres long. What you do then is drill it vertically to determine how far down plunge it goes. Most of these nickel things are short strike length long plunge carrot-like lenses that go deep down plunge. A few are saucers at the base of a large Peridotight intrusion with feathery low grade edges and high grade cores.

So far I am not sure what we are looking at structurally. The good news is the area is clustered with smallish lenses. That is very, very good news for Noronto. This was what was seen at Ungava, Sudbury and Snow Lake. So now they have step-outs, presumably along the mafic shear zone contact to drill at. Even if they don't find another 5 cents of nickel at least investors will get to hang on the edge of their seats for another year. McFaulds may be weak in places but they have cluster. Cu-Zn cluster -and- nickel cluster. So now we wait for the drill. Where is the biggie, big, big one?
