Based on my limited experience with diamond drilling and even more limited research, I'd estimate the planned 1650m of drilling in the first phase to take some six weeks. Add a few weeks for assays to that, although first cores will be logged and sent to the lab as soon as they become available.
Anybody else getting excited?
And there's always the chance that they'll pull up a core that doesn't need assays to be exciting....
If they really find a new epithermal deposit at Rebeca, this could be a company maker. If not, there's still plenty of potential from veins that have given high-grade rock chip results outside Rebeca and outside the known Topacio resource.
