Hi MS,

When the news came out we didn't get that detail nor if the VTEM vtem's timeframe was imminent. Our assumption was that Geotech being who they are would have nothing but such a "gold standard" for interpreting the data etc.

We also collectively kicked around how it may be put to use? Exploring and identifying new targets? Confirmation the extent of old targets? Enhancing the areas prospects that are already drilled? This tool can be used ahead of exploratory drilling or after.

I will include the news release, not as spam folks, ( heck it's old as the hills now) but to simply show you it was a pretty generic thing full of non specifics. I think a follow-up is in order just as you guys had. Is it done? The flight survey and data collection is obviously the big part of this job, then there is the interpretation and modeling like you guys have done. Be nice to have some surprises like yours :)

3 months has passed since the announcement.

Inspiration Mining Corporation: Geotech Commissioned for VTEM Survey
"Inspiration Mining Corporation (the "Corporation") (TSX: ISM)(FRANKFURT: OI8) is pleased to announce it has commissioned Geotech Ltd. ("Geotech") of Aurora, Ontario, Canada to conduct a helicopter-borne geophysical survey of the Langmuir Property using Geotech's Versatile Time-Domain Electromagnetic ("VTEM") geophysical system.

The VTEM is the most innovative and successful airborne electromagnetic system to be introduced in more than 30 years. It is excellent for locating discrete conductive anomalies as well as mapping lateral and vertical variations in resistivity. The VTEM system has a high sensitivity cesium magnetometer for mapping geologic structure and lithology and a cesium magnetometer base station for diurnal correction.

"The VTEM survey represents a significant step towards the development of the Langmuir project," said Randy Miller, President of the Corporation. "The survey will provide valuable information as to the mineral potential of the property and will enable the Corporation to fully develop the potential of the property."

Geotech provides full service contract airborne geophysical surveys with their proprietary, large dipole moment, VTEM system. Geotech operates nine VTEM systems in Canada of the world-wide total of 22. Their clients are mainly from the mineral and petroleum exploration industries. Its proprietary VTEM system, in the five years since its first commercial survey, has become the airborne system of choice by the exploration community. A number of exploration successes have been attributed to VTEM surveys by the exploration companies."
