bratty, it seems to me that sometime in the near future we may be forced to start some type of low level production if we wish to realize full value of the deposit.

if drilling cannot prove the higher grade resource is there would'nt it make some sense to pick the best possible spot and start some type of small production. if the resource is there you'd find out very quickly and have a source of income/proven grade?

i'm not talking about building a mill/processing plant. how much could it cost to scoop up a few thousand tons, ship it to an existing mill and see what we have? if the grade is what is epected we might even make a couple bucks proving up the resource?

am i all wrong here?
