Hi Jesse, Frank and all... Yep, a new way to report the news all right, and I personally think it stinks. It may be, overall, positive, BUT... How come all of a sudden Ashton decides to report small drill samples in C/tonne? How come they decide to do a half a large bulk sampling? And on K14 where??? A, B? Or do they split it 3 ways over K14 and then release results on 150 tonnes and say they need more. How come, for a Co. that is supposed to be extremely conservative, this crap of extrapolating 136c/tonne on very small drill sample. They are being inconsistent in their releases. If they release C/tonne now, then give it to us all the time. How the hell is one supposed to know where they are going with this kind of reporting? Stones/100 Tonnes, C/Tonne, Micros, Macros, those >.5mm, those >.8mm, etc. etc. etc., Don't get me wrong, overall I feel it's positive. But there's something going on here I don't like. Are they holding this thing down for a reason? Do they know or can they at this stage assume something we should know? Are they trying to make look better a shitty situation? I still can't believe they blew K14C with such a high diamond count and then release an assumed 136C/100 tonne on a hole with NO diamond count. - denis confused as "bullshit baffles brains".
