Hi John, quiet time on this thread... Ashton will probably have a Buffalo Hills project status update soon. The lurkers are still waiting to see if Ashton is sitting on their butts or are they moving on with K14 Bulk sampling this year, mini bulk on K11, K5, K6 and drill new anomolies this year. It seems that the market has accepted that nothing will happen this year. Interesting enough, I had a dream that Ashton will surprise the market with good news. Of course, this is my opinion. My dream hinted mini bulk sampling on K11 starting real soon, as early as this week and K14 bulk sampling being outsourced. IMO, I think the samples will be shipped to the USA. It would be less expensive to ship to Kennecott Lab's in Yellowknife, but from discussions in my dream, Kennecott can not process K14 due to the Lab being used for other commitements. If indeed Ashton outsources K14 and sent by trucks within the next two weeks, we will see some wild swings on the stock during the next two months. September is not far away, Sept 1st is next Tuesday. As I stressed so many times this year, Ashton will have the K14 results this year, contrary to what many have said. regards Frank

Hi John..again take heart in the fact D. James has given the Don Corleone kiss to ACA so we are bound to head higher next few months.<lol> Weather in the hills has been ideal for work with very little rain. If Frank's thoughts on the K14 processing are correct, the next question is the valuation of the 160ct or so sample of stones we would anticipate from 450tn of raw kimberlite. Will they do a $/ct assessment of this small sample? If they do they may not share that with stockholders and use it to decide if they proceed to larger samples - 1000ct would require 2000-3000tn. The market believes we are at square one and we may have to wait for a whole new exploration cycle if the K14 issue is not dealt with this year. Regards DJ
