Steve:

My understanding is that the very large diamonds that have been
found are more closely related to the Sansanto anomaly than to the
Kassama (the one that evidenced kimberlite material).

As you know based on their release, they have moved the drill to
the Sansanto and if Kimberlite is identified on this anomaly, then
this could get exciting. We must keep in mind, however, that
of course kimberlite pipes don't necessarily equal diamond mines, and
I recall reading that other kimberlites identified in the region
were non-economic.

Nevertheless, this appears to be a promising diamond play, and the
odds of finding an economic pipe have been improved.

Regards

Dan
