Drill ProgramOn November 15, Marathon reported that they had drilled 91 holes for a total of 43250m of the 60,000 m planned. They also stated they had released data on 63 of these holes which involved 29,000 m. On Nov 20, they released assays on 10 holes that I estimate involves 5000m. This leaves 18 holes totalling 9000m that are not reported. Don't know why this is the case. They may be waiting on assays or they may not have intersected any mineralization. I don't think that is the case when Walford keeps saying they have the geology figured out and boasts about the high hit rates. I'm not suggesting they are deliberately not releasing the data on these holes but they should let us know.
Also, continuing with the math, we only have 17,000 m left to drill in this program which is about 34 holes so they will need money for sure. The winter drill program needs frost without snow for a few weeks an right now the weather here in Central NL is cooperating perfectly. Should make for an early start in the new year unless the weather changes.
