RE: RE: RE: curious on whyNow Further to your question, I forwarded and email to afa management and this is the reply I received...
Dear XXX,
The reason why they did not use the extension to drill down to 12 meters is that the extension can only be installed at port. The tool has a normal penetration of 8 meters and the extension adds 4 meters. In a reconnaissance sampling program, if the survey shows that the majority of the samples are within 8 meters, we use only the 8 meter section. The extension adds operational time at sea and lower the number of samples. However, we gater the information about the areas that shall be drilled down to 12 meters and revisit these sites in further programs. All the prospective sites will be re-sampled in a resource delineation program but it will be done on a more systematic and tighter grid. Remember that a reconnaissance sampling is design to take as much samples as possible in a very sparse fashion. The goal of a reconnaissance sampling is to prove presence of diamonds and find where concentration occurs.
Kind regards

Now, as per your other question, no I am not IR of management, just a long investors that has made money with the stock and that actually does take the time to read the information given by the Company.
I just have a hard time taking bull from other poster that do not take the time to make a serious DD, but are quick to pass comments.
