hrattle... Would tend to agree with you but IMO if that were the case (i.e. reduced exploration at Milestone) I don't think they would have gone out of their way to include this little tidbit in the NR would they?...

"Exploration by Kodiak at its Milestone project in the Beardmore-Geraldton gold camp has the potential to add significantly to the combined company's gold resource base, VAULTING Kodiak to a new higher valuation threshold."

Sounds like a little hint or a wink-wink to me... They don't mention any of the other properties like this... and they certainly did not have to include this about Milestone. JMHO.
