September 22 meeting / Aquila SpeakerA friend of mine reserved 2 spots through C. Savage for this meeting a number of weeks ago an even confiremd the other day that the speaker was still "on". He asked that I not make note of his being there as he would like to ask some for the record questions. But, because of travel time, ect. I wanted to post this now. As usual, it will be taped. Should be very interesting.

Richard Lassin is a retired geologist with a Masters in Geology from Northern Illinois University and a former Director of Aquila Resources. His previous work included mining exploration for precious metals and uranium in the Lake Superior Mineral District. He is one of the discoverers of what has become the “Back 40” mining project. The Back 40 Project, in Menominee County, is an advanced stage exploration project delineating a zinc and gold-rich volcanogenic massive sulfide deposit. Early in 2002, drill testing of a geophysical anomaly resulted in the discovery of the massive sulfide deposit. Subsequent drilling totaling over 90,000 meters has defined significant zinc-gold-copper-silver mineralization. The Back Forty deposit is comprised of massive sulfide, stringer, gossan, and gold-only mineralization, eachwith high-grade components. Massive sulfide has been traced along strike for nearly 1 kilometer and to a vertical depth of 700 meters. The resource estimate includes 17.94 million tonnes of measured plus indicated metals (gold, silver, zinc and copper) and an additional 3.37 million tonnes inferred.
