I hear ya-- I am quite ripe to learn of some results, myself! But due to, on the one hand, highly particular standards by Spectra (forcing a 25% re-fly, which in the long run is best of course), and then on the other lab analysis delays, tack on another week or two to that estimate, I imagine. The field crews should be re-mobilizing anon, this week or next at least, as the new processed airmag maps arrive for action, and as lab results come in. They are currently "commissioning" the MMU mobile gravity concentrator with presently held Chinchaga samples, familiarizing themselves and readying the machine for onsite testing in the next Chinchaga drill program. -Since this is a short week, I am expecting most information to be released next week. _ (?) From what I have seen and heard, I'm still quite positive. As I've alluded to in the past, expecting reported diamonds at this early stage of shallow drilling & small samples is unrealistic. Nonetheless, I am hoping to hear of some good things. Remember too that news dissemination is at the discretion of CaribGold. We need to hear of what the companies have found in & learned from the core samples, that which they can subsequently extrapolate to the immediately forthcoming program (indicator minerals/ characteristics; host-rock?, etc). -- Perhaps they will now choose to apply magnetic signatures of current targets to the next targets ... With the newly acquired 200m spacing Airmag data maps (7,500 line km), we can expect the revelation of plenty more, very interesting and more specific targets on which to follow-up. imHo Again, this has been a very professional, efficient program to date, with lots more to come! The present delay can seem a lil disheartening, but is native to the territory and by no means out of the ordinary. So far we have had a timely and effective drill-program, followed up by a detailed News report containing important and relevant (& v.intriguing) information, and now we must await sample results to emerge from the lab(s) , for the next stages. -- Big follow-up programs are at the blocks.
