what are peoples views about the chinese visit, page-29

I have been out to West Whumbal and the drill holes were very well spaced out from each other over a big rugged terain/area and for a virgin find with out the drilling going to significant depths I thought the results were OK. I think John thought the results were encouraging to warrant further drilling but the Hotcopper experts thought the results were garbage. May be the Chinese actually agreed with John and saw the potential that RAU has over a range of projects and want to get in early - may be not - but they do not come back twice and invite Republic to visit them in China just because they like to pop into the Carins casino or see the Sydney Harbour bridge

They must like something that they see and that is a positive sign for all holders I would have thought anyhow
