Drilling

It has been consistently cold at Patterson Lake, which is good for ice thickness. Weather forecast looks great. https://www.worldweatheronline.com/fishing/Patterson-Lake-weather/Saskatchewan/CA.aspx

We can't be far from the start of drilling now. I hope they do at least 5,000 metres of drilling this winter. Those who know this sector are getting positioned ahead of drilling as they know that the odds of us having hit all there is to hit with the last 4 holes of the fall program are pretty darn low. So far, they've said the mineralization appears to be mostly flat-lying which means that they're not in the feeder system that is the source of it yet. You have to think that the really high grade material that we're seeing in the boulders must be close to the source(s) where the fluids came up faults and fractures.

At these depths a rig can do a hole every couple days, so Q1 is going to be busy and exciting to say the least. This situation has been years in the making. Buckle up.

Obviously you know little about ice or the program. Plowing of the snow off of the ice just started recently, with the snow off and wit it maintained off, it will form 1 to 2 inches a day. It will take a week to clear the snow off of the potential drilling sites. So drilling is aways away, and so is the drill---------------------wait for the end of the month------------->

Bushman, the drill will turn when it turns I'm thinking. Maybe they'll fool us and put a couple holes down on land first! (drill can't be that far away, can it?)........a few holes were drilled just a short while ago if I recall. November 15th rings a bell.

Drilling will begin within 10 days original drill never left property, another drill being mobilized to site, ice pads are in advanced stage of preparedness. Now you know the rest of the story.
