Ron: I have to disagree with your conclusion, unless you have additional sources of information we are not privy to. Why should we assume the random samples are from a lower grade and not a higher grade ore? The number are so close to the numbers BD reported in 1995 for the same grid that I would say we must assume the number reported then are all we'll get. I see no FACTUAL base for assuming that we will get an average of .1 to .15 oz/ton as you propose. The main issue of extraction cost is wide open and not even close to resolution. So far, unfortunately, I see a repeat of the fateful 450 tons bulk sample of last year. The lesson, last year Hoare dumped a bunch a stock (as reported to us by CL at the time) into the "hype" of the 450 tons fiasco, and in the last few months, I must look at the numbers and the trading range and conclude that in due time we will find out Hoare and others did the same on the orchestrated rallies first to 8 and then twice to 6. Sorry Ron but unless I get some fatcs that say otherwise, I have to go with what the action of the stock tells me. I am not even buying on a dip to 3.5. Zeev

<< The most important thing to realize about this news release is the reported grades are just from two areas. You cannot assume the whole 1st km has these grades. These samples are not from the same area as the samples reported at the AGM. Bateman basically randomly selected two areas to take samples. I expect these samples are from an area of lower grades. >> Ron mon ami... I think there has been many discussions on this in the past year while we were discussing the numbers of drill holes needed to bring the project to feasibility.. This basin is a placer deposit and the consensus has always been that it was homogeneous. Despite the past consensus...I think it is now obvious that several hundreds drill holes will be needed to evaluate the average gold grade.
