Hi Marcos.... I have received some new info recently and will pass it on......the bulk sample is complete less a few bags aeroflighting in today. Aber/Kennecott still using the labs but will be available to Wsp 1st week of May.....will need 6 to 8 weeks after that until results/analysis available, the 30 tons a day is still a good number but it is going to take forever to sort, pick, weigh, measure, etc all those diamonds and a lot of diamonds are anticipated. the ongoing drilling has come up with many more dyke intersections ranging from 1 to 5 meters in thickness, the 5 meter thickness being over at the 186 area......all of the dykes apparently tip at about 10 to 12 degrees and generally towards the center of Snap Lake. It appears that all the dykes have a common source, probably in the center of Snap Lake, the next 2 or 3 weeks, a lot of the drilling is going to be directed at that idea. Ongoing drilling around 186 and step out drilling, to a grid pattern, on the NW peninsular dykes. One spicy adjective being used as reference to the area, "incredibly rich". I don't think they have any earth shaking news just now but if the continuing exploration turns up anything new, there is no doubt in my mind that there would be an almost immediate news release....stay tuned folks........Marcos ....thanks for your support on the MPV thread.......it got so depressing I just left. If I get anymore info I will try to pass it along...Chuck
