From "The Big Score"
"During the summer of 1995 the exploration crew was under enormous pressure to make good on Friedland's frequent boast that the spectacular ovoid deposit was part of a vast nickel complex."
"But by August all the camp had to show for more than 150 drill holes was more ore within the original ovoid."
"Drill hole No.202 tapped into 39.9 metres of massive sulfides,the largest intersection of solid ore outside the ovoid...The scant one metre length of massive sulfides drilled from hole 166 proved to be the wispy tail end of a giant nickel beast buried to the east."
Now I wonder what the wise one MJ was saying about Archean and Diamondfields's deposit after say 30 holes.Probably much the same as his comments lately regarding the Double Eagle.My point being that after 27 holes very little is known about this deposit,where it originated and where it may lie.True,it may not be situated entirely on NOT's property,but chances are very good that if it exists(chances are very good that it does exist)it is nearby.NOT may not have enough ore for a mine but there will be enough ore for a mine!!
Archean had 12 drills working months on end,24/7 before finding another ore body,the way I see it is I'll wait for just 175 more holes by NOT and the nearby "wannabes" before I call it a bust.
