Call me naive. Okay... sure there are fewer big or medium finds. With ZTEM, that should be reversing as it gets used more. But from these summaries, I did not see where the exploratoring funding for such finds was considered. Indeed, since we have agreed there that funding has been sparse, one would think logically that less finds are due to less implemented drilling programs. Duh....

It hurts to keep hitting one's head against the funding wall regardless of apparent opportunities. As one irish proverb says, if you keep the flint in drawer and the iron strike in another... it is hard to get a spark to light the fire. Amazing that the Boston Consulting Group did not commit to helping more drilling programs!

Thanks for the link, VP.
