RE:Deep, drillingPeople should remember that these are structural holes not step outs. Their objectives are to validate structures at depth not bring home high assays. If they happen to hit high grade at depth - Bonus! In some respects you can consider this a maiden drill programme.
The majors will want to see proof of gold at depth and continuity of structures to depth before thery even consider making an offer. I understand fully. There could be a buy out or buy in this year but I think next year will be far more likely. This project ios being rapidly derisked.
