presentation says drilling mid yr, page-2

The way I read the Development Program on page 22 of the presentation, it shows that resource definition for Ida Dome will be completed by mid 2008, is that the mid year you are referring to?

I am of the understanding that the number of drills is increasing although I don't know the specific numbers. They forecast 380 holes and 60,000 metres over the next 12 months (starting from May 2007).

Yes the scoping study for Hildenhof starts at the beginning of 2008 but I don't think the chart is meant to imply it is complete by the end of 2008, I think the chart only displays 2007 and 2008. If it showed forecast activities for 2009, no doubt the Hildenhof work would be lapsing over into 2009.
