Odd that many Jr exp's in CANADA drill often shallow core, 100 meters and just for the sake of annalysing whatever they have such as the suspected shallow on the HM,, are you sure that JB&BOD are'nt trying to save the HM for a MAJOR?  There is no law that says that JB&BOD must drill by law,, just that it is a mining custome to drill before digging (?)  In many cases good ore is at surface and the process statrs with a shovel just as in RIVER dredge opperations can begin with nothing more than a good duche and as simple as using a basic gold pan.
