Ann: Exploration and Drilling Program Update, page-5

Maybe you should re read this statement from ARD:

"Drilling commenced in late June but due to heavy rain Argent suspended drilling in early July while the
Company secured the use of a more suitable track rig and track mounted auxiliary compressor.
Progress is continuing in trying and wet conditions which has hampered the program to date. This has
warranted a 10-day break with drilling re-commencing on the 19 July 2020. The long-term weather
forecast predicts a cold and dry spell from late July to middle August allowing solid progress to be
made. "

So drilling commenced in late June. The photo was taken when the ground is dry rather than boggy.

Suspending in early July within the driest phase in three and a half months being July................. how did they get the drilling rig and other equipment there in the first place?

If they started drilling in late June and then call it quits in early July in what has turned out to be the the driest phase doesn't quite add up.

I note you left out rainfall for July................... perhaps you should consider why you did that.

Anyway that's not to say that there are areas on that lease that are unable to be accessed at this moment and probably haven't been accessible for a couple of months.................... perhaps if they worded their comment about the "heavy rain" in a less ambiguous manner then there would be nothing to question.

So what did you think of the wording of the following?

"The first delivery of samples has been dispatched to Nagrom Metallurgical Laboratories in WA and
assay results are expected mid to late August. "


Samples is an interesting if unusual description.


I know who you are and you and I have been around long enough to know the difference in wording on ASX releases.
