A couple of curios things here, IMO.
1. What is Jay doing at Hay Mountain with Niton at this time. I would think that he had by now already X-rayed all of the outcropping mineralization he could find. He may be taking further chip samples, but I don't think he could be trenching without a permit. If he's taking further chip samples, why would he need to do so if the line of mineralization has already been established? Has a new parallel or crossing line been found? If so, would that not require a press release?
2. As I thought all the Hay Mountain claims and drilling targets are on state lands, why the mention of the drilling permit renewal process on Federal lands?
Are there extra words/filler thrown in here to make this look more like a thoughful and considate reply, or are these hints of something else going on?
Maybe I'm just looking where there is really nothing more to be seen.
