Nedex i am a thorough reader and indeed i am an avid arm chair explorationists. Here is the announcement your looking for: http://www.orionmetals.com.au/attachments/Gold_Results_from__Drilling.pdf
By the sounds of it you must know some one at ORM and i am pleased that you are willing to communicate.
With regards to the Exploration Director i don't think he has done anything wrong. What i am worried about is that maybe something subtle might be missed with regards to REE, that is all. There is nothing wrong with getting a little help... also it makes the announcements more interesting as currently they are boring.
I don't work in the industry so i don't know that the labs are busy, a quick press release from ORM would belay my doubts and ease my nerves so i don't have to check the announcements every day. Below is where they stated the results should be expected within 6 weeks of the 13/9/11 http://www.orionmetals.com.au/attachments/2nd_Drilling_Program_at_Killi_Killi.pdf
Also, I am a real big gold bug and that is why i am holding and i believe everyone else should too. I love the fact that there could be a big gold pay off at killi Killi and i have said as much... however having heard nothing about the consistency of the cores, i am lead to believe that they are not core drilling (this just seems like a case of the dog that didn't bark to me).... If so how would they be able to find out if there is gold bearing quartz veins present. Perhaps you could ask your mates to clarify that for me :)
I too am happy to be patient and hang in there, however i worry that good news or bad, no one will be around to hear it! Good Luck
