Sculpin,

There is lots to think and speculate about but I don't think we will come close to the center of the dart board. I recall chatting with David P at the PDAC last March and he was very excited about NOT wanting to drill the boarder between their claims and the JV. Last Monday I had a long chat with him re all the prospects but nothing came up re the news on splitting the properrty as it should be. My guess is NOT didn't want the boarder area drilled or the JV north of Eagle drilled until the split as they have info that hasn't come out yet and may never be known.

Despite the JV there didn't appear to be lots of good will between the companies so a friendly split, I don't think, but I could be in left field on this. An interesting twist in one of NOT's NR this week about chrome. This after giving up on Black Creek. There are just too many twists for me to follow but maybe some day the story will be out. The convergence point may indeed not be where more Ni/Cu, is to be found, just more mineralization like Eagle 2. Will the real pot of Ni/Cu be found north of Eagle 1 on the former JV?

A great day for PRB holders, hoping for more but Cliff's track record with others has me wondering. Just some Friday, 13th rambling thoughts.

Cheers,

MH
