Novtrader and Dirtangel .... ignorance is bliss and clearly...

Novtrader and Dirtangel .... ignorance is bliss and clearly helps for making unsubstantiated and inaccurate statements. If you had specific concerns the logical thing would have been to contact the company, or me directly, and seek to get a true understanding of the situation. But no, it is so much easier just to "lash out" and make bold but incorrect statements. If you bother to check the NT regulations, that relate to ground disturbing exploration (as required with an MMP), you might understand the complexity and difficult involved and that until the company gets agreement from the landowner an MMP will not be issued for exploration activities.

Aside from all the other points outlined in the last ASX release on this matter another critical issue is that we want to use existing access tracks on the station that have been put in by the landowner. By doing this we substantially reduce not only the need for new tracks and also significant expenditure. We require his approval for that. There is no alternative. We have not been sitting our backsides doing nothing and have actually made repeated trips to both the station and elsewhere to try and meet with the landowner and continue to do the same. The matter will be sorted and it will be done as fast as we can manage but as they say .... "it takes two to tango" ... and until we can actually make direct contact with the landowner and get a signed agreement from him, to allow us to do what, we need we can't move to drilling.
