Lab delays and reassay delays re: SGX Omoman samples???

posted on Jun 27, 2008 06:00AM

From what we understand the company had three rigs drilling all winter long at onoman. That had to be for good reason of course. Core samples from the winter campaign went to the lab. We know about the lab delays but I forget whether or not we heard about possible further delays due to some of those Onoman cores having to be reassayed even before they came into the public sector. I don't think so but if you know for sure, please comment.

Also, I know it is expensive to ship cores to far off labs, and for accountabliity and continuity reasons, Mike O'. can't put them in his private car and drive to a lab in Mexico, but since the labs in Canada are all backed up do to sheer volume and a lack of qualified lab technicians, isn't there something Sage can do to expedite the testing of cores? Can't they legally have someone with a truck ship them out of the country? Is it that the expense to do that makes it prohibitive? If so, then we have become an unwitting prisoner of "progress".

I guess I keep thinking of what my dad taught me. He said, " son, there is ALWAYS more than one way to skin a cat"



All the best,

Jerry
