"while any form of announcement will be good. bags of dirt are not what the bigger serious investors are waiting for they want proper drilling results"
That will come in stage 2. (see below). In the meantime the initial sampling results will, if they're good, still get the serious investors excited.
From media release... An initial large sample of up to 500kgs is planned to confirm the extent of the gold and the necessity to plan for large scale mining. Further comprehensive drilling and modelling of the gold vein is planned for stage 2. Cluff will finalise its timetable as soon as equipment supply and shipping dates have been confirmed.. Any medium or larger scale operations will be deferred until after the conclusion of the wet season and operations on the ground are intended to re-commence in early April 2011.
