Try as I might I cannot get worried about my position in a company that just found 6 new kimberlite pipes in a region where they have already seen diamonds in concentrations known to be economic or near-economic, in the past 2 weeks. Equipment problems and difficult terrain are a fact of life. The good thing is that despite all the fears of overburden and difficult terrain Ashton can find pipes anyway. As you say, with a less reputable company there would be cause for concern. In this case they will do everything by the book. Another thing is that Ashton parent is a big company that swings a lot of weight and if they feel they need to get these samples processed they will find a way to speed up the process by flying them to Australia or wherever.

I hope so to Jesse..it's just that those shorters are still out there and we have not seen any significant covering yet. They may use this release to push it farther south until the next NR with some K91 results - the next NR will have the potential to really move the market. Maybe some good reviews from the PDAC will help. Regards DJ
