Ann: Large Scale Copper Discovery Confirmed at Rae Project, page-47

Maybe they could hire a drone and do a VLF survey before winter , would it be that hard to put up a drone and follow the path that they found the rock chips on for each mineralized seam as probably could do that before winter ?

There are small diamond drill rigs , if they could drill a series of 60 meter deep holes with a narrow diameter core it could given an idea of potential .
In Sweden they do exploration drilling all through winter in enclosed drill rigs , the spring is when they have the most issues due to mud
guess though its about time to organize that before winter , so balance between keeping the share price up by having share holder interest or taking the safe option from a permitting systematic and logistic perspective and waiting until next spring which is probably going to be what occurs in reality .
