re: reply to ripped Studying for your licence? That takes no time-just learn it parrot fashion, don't use logic-the examiners are not of the highest degree. If they were they would not be examiners!LOL(Easy for me to say as I can be 'grandfathered' in!)

There are no set mining texts-the Cost Estimation Handbook was written in 1992 but is still very handy.

Phone up the Australian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and ask them for a publication list-it should assist. Avoid the Monograph Series-too detailed, more my geriatric speed. (May even see a thing I wrote a few years ago!)

Don't expect miracles tomorrow with IGR, the good news appears to come out every three or four weeks!(With some you are lucky if it is every three or four months). Their drilling programmes are active so the next few results should be out by early September.

Which firm are you considering?
