Time to drill the monster., page-144

Let's not hit the panic button yet.

- drilling started 2.Oct. (14 days ago)...or thereabouts
- Heisenberg63 mentioned that inclement weather hindered progress
- I have no idea how long it takes to get the samples ready for transport?
- if it took the rigs 2+ days to get to site, it would take at least 2 days to transport the samples to Perth (from a cost persective, does it really make sense to do this every week....wouldn't think so)
- once the samples arrive at the lab, I don't believe that they will start processing the samples immediately (workload dependant)
- once they get to it, they need time to analyse, interpret the samples, prepare documentation, etc

.....and so on

How does this look on a timeline....
- 2 Oct. drilling commened as per announcement
- 6 - 7 days of drilling (week 1) including delay would put us at 9 Oct
- 9/10 Oct - prepare samples for transport
- 10/11 Oct.- tranport to Perth
- 12/13 Oct.- arrive at lab
- 13/14 Oct - start analysing

.........and wait, today is only the 16th Oct...

C'mon, I know that everyone wants news yesterday but let's keep things in perspective hey.

If anyone has a better estimate then please correct me.

As always, DYOR
