Drilling progress
The average rate of diamond drilling is ~100 m/day. Holes 1,2 and 3 have a target depth of 700 m and the top ~200 m was pre-drilled by the RC drill. All 3 holes should be drilled by now and the drills moved on to the next fence of holes. I am expecting a press release to this effect at any time.
If I were them I would keep the RC drill busy by punching holes through the cover here, there and everywhere on the property. They know so very little about the lower plate geology.

Retiredgeo, There was no mention of the planned RC drill in the Press Release of May 6th. Just the 3 core drills: two Atlas Copco CS14 rigs, and one Atlas Copco CS3001 rig

If you go to his video II https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ag8NE4fK-LE&t=3135s he mentions the 3 drill rigs and the RC rig starting at ~50:00. I have not heard anything different since.
