Rick, why don't go and lobotomize a cat or something because
you make zero sense here. Trust me you won't pay off your
student loan with WSP.

Take my suggestion and look at KRT "Kensington Resources"
Diamond in the Rough, a Saskatchewan play with real sparkle.
If you don't believe me just ask Lilian or Buddy.

Rick,
To answer your question, the importance of the broken 16 carat stone, is that it raises confidence in the large end of the stone size distribution plot. Yes, with Aber about to lose about 16% working interest in Snap Lake, that will ultimately add about $16.00/share to Winspear, IMO. According to my "back of an envelope" calculations, Winspear should get one, and if they are really lucky, two diamonds about or just over 100 carats in size from the 6000 tonne bulk sample.
I can hardly wait for the results. I hope we get a decent breakdown of various stone sizes prior to valuations.
regards,
teevee

I started this rumor, and it comes from RT himself:

I was referring to the rumors in January from Red and Fix and teevee about a big stone in a drillcore, from the summer of 1998 program. RT confirmed that there were fragments of diamond in a drillcore, that if pieced together could have been a 16+ carat stone confirming those rumors. The quality of the stone is suspect,...true. You are right in assuming it could have been full of inclusions. But I was referring to the veracity of the rumors, and whether these posters were telling the truth. I think we can say the reputations of red, fix and teevee are solid in this rumor, they had a source(s), it was tied to Winspear.
