He (Mike) is a master of spin as we all know, but I think he is fully committed to getting the Lake Hope project up and running asap, hence the slow progress on the other tenements!
I guess it's better to put all his resources into getting the HPA story to become a reality and then focus on the other project once we have the PFS under our belts, given the limited funds currently - I agree the Arkun project has been frustrating with all the delays in assays and drilling starts, but we are not privy to all that goes on behind the scenes!
As his sign says - "Trust me I'm the Doctor"...LOL
