Great summary post Brad. I would take issue with only one of your statements. "We are not hoping for long intercepts or grades" with this drilling program. I would argue that long intercepts > 15 m quartz-bearing mineralization would be fantastic. Moreover, while I expect you are correct regarding the average grades over a 2000 m drill program being disappointing compared to bulk sampling, I am cheering for 1-2 nuggety sections of core getting assayed (> 100g/t) so that finally Tilsley can stand up and say "You see boys- this is a very different type of deposit than we are used to and I want to be sure we get the grades right!" I think once people begin to realize that Tilsley's correction factors for grade estimation based on bulk sampling data are scientifically and statistically valid, it will be easier to convince people that he is not trying to inflate the drill core values with his calculations. Remember Tilsley believes the true grades are actually 3-4 g/ton but has not been able to prove this yet. So if anything his calculations underestimate the true size of the deposit - isn't that the point of a NI43-101 in the first place?
Best,
