I did not know wether I was going to pass this info on because it was information I over heard. Freewest was in Sudbury at the Ontario Exploration & Geo Science Symposium on Mon and Tues of this week. I did not find out this until the last minute on Tues and rushed down just to find that some of the companys were gone and others were packing up to go. At the Freewest booth I pick up sum literature and over heard conversation going on at this time. There was two gentlemen behind the table one called Dave Macdonald and the other was Dave, but I could not see his complete name tag, He was saying that they are currently drilling near the end of Black Thor down near BT 0801. and that the costs were high for drilling. I believe he said around 40,000 per hole and that they are considering not to go as deep to keep costs down. Other ROF news that I heard, Noront at their AT12 were drilling just above and close to Freewest's property (maybe they are following their At12 hit). Spider was mentioned also that they had overshot one hole that was a potential Nickel Copper PGE Target. Dave said that planes are landing on the ice and a Second Drill Rig will start in January of next year 2009. I'm going to ask Freewest to let the share holders and others know when they are going out to meet the public in these forums or symposiums. They can post Places, Dates and Times on their Web Site and on Agoracom at little or no costs. I regret, I can not give you any more info.....RL
