Ann: Compelling Drill Targets at West Arunta, page-8

Hi Salpetie,
And I thought you'd be more positive than me regarding the drilling.
The sets of geophys & chem provided are a difficult read and the points are well taken. CZI laid out each set of the information so someone like yourself could make an alternative assessment. I admit some of their points were less obvious to me but my geology isn't strong enough to comment even semi- definitively.

In general two things will come out of the drilling. One they will have more information to clarify the structures you're querying. Two you can discuss your views with them when you catch up with them. The way they laid out the information I don't think they will state their view is the only one. Particularly regarding the syncline versus unusual folding or the strata where the Zn is supposed to be hosted. As I see it you've already got a pretty good relationship with them. (It's a pity Bevan says he doesn't look at HC. I tried to alert him to the fact that you sometimes post.)

(PS: You've given us heaps of info so I'll have to go over it a few times even before drill results help clarify).
BTW on XAM, Budor and others are expecting some significant chalcopyrite from the next set of assays your experience won't be amiss if it's still of interest to you.
