I am just soooo curious as to how the deep drilling is going... I was so curious that I called Sasha and asked him about it...

NOTHING!!! He can't, or won't let the cat out of the bag. I respect that. But, I am still so curious as to how the drilling is going.

Why, you ask... Well, If Mr. Tilsley's theory is correct, than this is a very large hydro thermic "fracturing" event (OK, I have officially used up all my big words for the day :-}, than it only stands to reason that the "higher grades of gold" will be at the "deeper" drilling cores area that we are currently investigating... do you get my meaning? If you have 2 grams/ton at near the surface (like under the DIRT) which has been proven up with Timmins 1, then what kind of concentrations of gold are we going to find when we go deeper... Larry explained the event before very well explaining how it all has to do with massive pressures and the splitting of solid rock by this huge pressure (oh, and heat, did I mention the HEAT). It is so hot and so pressurized that the "stuff" (scientific term) coming up from below is melted and it contains Quartz in it which contains gold... Now, knowing that gold is heavier by Quartz (if you don't believe me, either look it up in the periodic table or ask Larry), it only makes sense that the gold "settled" when it had a chance to cool a bit...So,

Where would it settle... up towards the surface of the earth or down where the denser stuff is that is somehow giving us this life giving thing we call gravity...

I am going with "down" for now, not because I am a scientist, but because if I jump UP, then I always end up coming back DOWN.

So, if gold is heavier than Quartz, it only makes sense that the gold would settle down and therefore be more concentrated as you go deeper within the "event".

Why am I so curious, you say??? Well, because if we have 2 g/ton at surface and you can get 4-5 grams/ton at 500 meters, then you can actually increase the grade in the overall deposit fairly significantly because it was mentioned that it is feasible to mine this down to 1000 meters and 500 meters would be 1/2 of that... If, that's a big IF, our system is proven up by Mr. Tilsley, then we would have our mineralization to 1000 meters and could possibly upgrade our grade in the long run. I like that :-}

So, going forward, if we start seeing better grades at depth, would it not be prudent to drill more deep holes in the near future and show that the grades indeed do get better at depth and that we have been too conservative even for Mr. Tilsley? I know that the holes are much more expensive at depth but if you are doubling you grade (just MY hypothetical number grabbed out of the air, don't read ANYTHING into it...), does it not make sense to continue deep drilling after we do our next round of financing at a much, much higher price/share, hopefully...

Just some food for thought. I am sure that Frank Candido has already thought about this as I am only a lineman and he is a president of a company that is looking for gold. So, let's just hope for better assays from "down under" .......

God Bless all Golden Investors.
