HAT stated that the first 11 holes basically drew blanks. hole 12 hit. i note that they now say 14 holes have been drilled ("Hathor has now completed in excess of 4,000 metres of diamond drilling in 14 of a planned 24 NQ-sized diamond drill holes."). i called HAT to ask about holes 13 & 14 & got voicemail (i bet they're drinking!) - hopefully i'll get a responce tomorrow. DML is probably too big for this to have any real impact on their share price (at this stage), but this result can't hurt... ("Hathor's Midwest NE project is located in northern Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin immediately adjacent to the Midwest property of AREVA Resources Canada Inc., Denison Mines Corp. and OURD Canada Co. Ltd. There, subject to regulatory approvals, mine site construction is slated to begin in mid-2009 and open-pit mining of a shallow (depth of about 200 metres) orebody is planned for early 2010. Points North Landing, a regional service centre to the region, is located about eight kilometres from Hathor's Midwest NE property and the modern, AREVA-operated McClean Lake uranium mill facilities are located approximately 10 kilometres to the east.") my biggest hope now is if more holes hit... that it would spark the junior U's!!! dave
