There will be no more statements similar to the eye-catching announcement of last November when Focus reported rock chip samples from the island of up to 58.9 grams per tonne of gold, and that a number of quartz vein arrays had been noted, along with fine visible gold disseminated throughout samples.

I can say what we?re seeing is incredibly exciting? - careful Campbell, that?s not a JORC term! ? ?but the crew on site is using the holes to understand the geology of what they?re drilling. They drill a couple of holes in one direction, and then we drill a couple in another - in the context of: if we put a hole under the salt lake under this structure, what does it tell us??
