Thanks Ron,

True, there are already enough ounces to build a mine, but are there enough ounces to make it possible to easily raise the the $170M to build that mine?

A mines value is substantially increased when it can demonstrate that it has a lot of resources/reserves.

My view is that the Feasibility Study, due next year, can be made much better than the Pre-Feasibility by adding more high grade (economic) reserves. Moreover, a project is valued more highly when it can demonstrate that it has great exploration potential. As Webb has said, banks say, "SHOW ME!"

I think that the only way to do that, is to drill up more ounces in areas where Tyhee plans to carry out its long held plan for a constellation of individual mines contributing high grades to a single central mill.

My vote is YES for more aggressive drilling which will lead to a more impressive Feasibility Study, which should make it a lot easier to fund a more robust, and expensive mine opeation.

Cheers,

Baires
