observations from the sept q report

Hi Arch, FB1, et alii,

Two points of interest from the Sept. Q Report:

First the Maroochydore Copper Project. It was stated that "The Company intends to discuss the status of the project with its joint venture partner and the operator of the project, Aditya Birla Minerals Ltd, during the December quarter."

Based on that statement we should be close to some feedback from the company on this issue.

Second the Firawa Prospect in the Republic of Guinea. It was stated that "The Company plans to undertake a RAB drilling programme as soon as it can source a drill rig. It is anticipated that this will be early 2007."

Just trying to connect some "Dots" Featherby and Grannell have a long time associate that has a large mining operation in Sierra Leone. Sierra Leone borders the Republic of Guinea. It is understood that this associate just sourced an oil drilling rig for White Nile for their drilling program in the Sudan. It seem plausible that due to the close proximity of the Republic of Guinea and Sierra Leone that the source of the drill rig could come from the mining operation in Sierra Leone.

JMHO and ramblings. Time will tell....

Everyone please do your own DD & research
