The fact that ECU has not done the drilling to upgrade the data is more a reflection of the fact that they have so much discovery drilling to complete. With so many targets to prove up new resource blocks, why waste that time and money to go back and drill off what you already know you have?
ECU is hopefully taking the advice MICON, their consultants, and are instituting a drilling program. I would like to see this announced soon, and maybe get those that are suppressing the sp off our backs. The program would presumably go for the best of the low hanging fruit, so to speak (down in the bowels of the earth), and design their program so that they can outline and make a start at quantifying the massive sulphides that have been mentioned previously. PM Grades are supposed to get better the deeper you go...
Looking forward to these results coming (a good Christmas present?) and getting the 'inferred' into the 'measured'. All the while, shipping dore.
PS. Don't you miss those 8:30 am $10 'dumps' by da bhoys?
Cheers
