VAUGHN - good stuff, simply put we must have oodles of places for some pots and pans core at Harp Lake, and they could turn up anywhere over what I believe could be a 1-2 year or longer exploration program.

Very impressive post Mr. Vaughn. I commend you.

However, I don't agree with Teck and Donner's management comparing South Voisey to Sudbury genetic models. There are similarities, indeed, between all world-class nickel-orebodies (e.g., Noril'sk Russia; Sudbury, Ontario; Jinchuan, China; Mt. Keith, Australia; Thompson, Manitoba; Kambalda, Australia, and now the newest one at Voisey's Bay, Labrador). All occur along major geologic-structures and all contain olivine-rich mafic-thru-ultramafic magmatic host rocks--but I think the differences in age, geophysics, and geochemistry are very important too.

I think the Harp Lake Anorthosite Complex is much more similar to the Nain Anorthosite Complex than the Sudbury Irruptive. Could be that Teck/Donner have given up on another Voisey's Bay and are now looking for another Sudbury at South Voisey?? --if so, I wish them luck but I'm skeptical. I think Jinchuan is more similar to Voisey's Bay than Sudbury is; but, my academic-buddy Tony Naldrett is always comparing Noril'sk to Voisey's Bay's mineralization.

Whatever, if Teck/Donner find a mine at South Voisey it will be unique--and the experts and academics will argue endlessly just what type of nickel deposit it is. Orebodies like all beautiful women are always very unique. But first D&T gotta find an orebody at S. Voisey.

Best Regards and have a great weekend, T.
