Not quite the commodity fruit salad I was hoping for, but it clears the decks for the drilling announcements:

1) Any new targets will not be drilled as part of the drilling program, it takes time for access agreements and government approval. The rig to do Jimmy's Hill will be a dual-purpose 6 or 8 wheeler. The rig to do the AC / RAB drilling on the new geochem targets will be on a small truck or Landcruiser and cost about a 10% of the diamond rig.

2) The rock chips are comparable to PUR's Phil's Hill, except PUR seemed to have bagged a fure grains of PGE-bearing minerals in its soil scoop. Its an obvious outlier that should have been top-cut, resampled and reassayed. Take it out and these are comparable size and comparable Ni-Cu-PGE grades.

3) MAN have confirmed BHP's observation of historical gold workings. At some stage someone's been happy enough to bust a nut to win gold, showing visible gold in quartz reefs which is a positive sign.

4) Both these areas will generate nice EM targets due to the contrasting rock types, but whether the targets yield anything - time will tell.

5) I think 90% of the tenement value still remains on Jimmy's Hill.

Good to see we've held are ground again today. Only a matter a time before we jump the next step into the 30s.
