My "back of the envelope" math was refering to how many does, on average, it has taken to provide ASSAY RESULTS on a per hole basis. I obviously understand that drilling is a major factor in that equation but there are clearly additional factors ...more

Using the published number of holes to calculate a timeline makes zero sense. It takes on average 8 weeks from the time core samples are shipped off to the lab until results are released. So the speed of assay processing and publication of the results has little to no bearing on the overall timeline. Drill speed is the factor that matters. Even without any drill speed increase or more rigs it' ...more

Spin it anyway you want, end of the day we got 12 holes and trouble staying in the 1.30's.

Rookie response at best.He or she is entitled to thier opinion if they don't agree with the way the company does things.They have invested in the company and want results in a timely manner.If I am correct in one of the last videos the have had the Brasiles results for two weeks now.?????????????
