We all know how difficult negotiations can be sometime, especially with many of the native communities in slight disagreement with each other at the present time, and numerous complex issues for all parties.

The intent was to hopefully agree by tomorrow to solve the outlined issues within 6 months. I'm sure things are on track. This is just to say that l had heard that agreement might take place anytime between the 18th and 22nd but what do I know?!

So folks, don't get worried if the clock strikes midnight tomorrow and we've heard nothing! Negotiations can be delicate and frustrating, and easily delayed.

I'm totally "out of the Loop", but I won't be concerned at all if things carry over until next week. The main thing is to get a worthwhile, cordial agreement. And we will...IMHO.

Can't wait for those AT12 assays!

Drill, Drill, Drill!
