Ann: Exploration Update-MOX.AX, page-53

Some people also have absolutely no idea of just how long things take to do. Take the drilling in Qld. It commenced within days of the AGM (16 Nov), took two weeks or so (that takes us to the start of Dec) and then submission of samples to lab, say a couple of days from end of drilling and then 2 to 3 weeks minimum for assays to arrive, so the absolute earliest we can expect gold results is next week. Likewise for the Lithium, samples submitted say end of Nov, 3 weeks for assays, next week at the earliest again.

Exploration takes time and often the time line is outside the explorer's control unless they want to pay through the nose for priority processing and why would you do that? Where's the cost benefit?
