Rosehill, Just speculation but my thought is that they have found some great core samples from the first drill ie. visible gold so want to do all the step outs and infills that are possible while there is good ice. "Make gold while the ice stays" will be the new mantra from the "hay while the sun shines" ditty. I have a gut feeling that something very good is being found under the lake. Where was the first ice drill hole done? If it was at a distance then infilling is a good idea. If near shore then move the yardsticks across the lake. Seems we could belooking at a touchdown or at least a field goal. All just speculation. the deputy
