A month.
They don't have to drill to depth, as mineralisation starts from the surface, so drilling to 60m increases the knowledge of the deposit by ten times, as it's only been drilled/sampled to 6m before (apparently). So if RM is planning a 7,000m drilling program, that could be 100 drills at 70m each. Which would take a while, but they should be able to get assays from the first couple of holes within a month of drilling - a week to drill and deliver to the lab, three weeks for the assays.
If they are still in mineralisation at 70m - time for a perma-party!
Hand held XRF meters can give some immediate indication of grades, but are not reliable as they only sample small parts of rock.
