I need a grass roots property with assays and maybe some area ground next door with a shaft. We get the property, you get the shaft.

I got the placemats but I need a thumbnail sketch again of the unlimited potential in geologically coherent form a la jungle Dan.

Won't promise you anything but I have the ear of some people who like the territories, will do gold and have done deals up there before.

Shake and bake baby. Here comes the flow through glow through.

"...I can provide a little gold to set all those diamonds..."

There was a guy from Birks interviewed on CBC radio this morning, he figures that Ekati or other NWT diamonds will be hot sellers within Canada. And why not set in local gold - I know I'd prefer to buy something with a local pedigree, all other things like price and quality being equal. Why not laser-enscribe them 'Ekati' or 'Pride o' the North' or 'Producto de Canad ' or something like that?

Of course, we'd have to watch out for EC's scamster smuggling friends. You can't always trust a label. Did you ever hear that late in the last century a city in China was named Great Britain so that products made there could be labelled 'Made in GB'? But then you could incorporate your cabin as 'De Beers', too, right.

Amazing fires, Walt osei.noaa.gov - they talk about the 'diurnal cycle' - that definitely is a factor when we fight fire here, they flare up in the early evening, and with the tidal changes of wind and with the morning/afternoon sea breezes. Wind direction and speed is the big thing - we once had a fire move five miles in five minutes, at the west end of Taylor Arm of Sproat Lake in '67. The northwest afternoon blow came up quick and hard, the fire crowned and jumped the lines on which about a hundred guys and a dozen cats had been working for several days. I and a few others had grandstand seats across the lake and around fifteen hundred feet higher. Low wind on our side that day, but a couple days later we were getting choppered in two miles east, our lines got jumped too. My rigging slinger and two chokermen and I were on that one for 31 days straight, 12 hour days. Beer sure tasted good when you got home an hour and a half after dark.

I see the Spear edging off from here, I'll be looking for more traders starting in the low 1.30s ........ cheers ........ macros
