Ann: Quarterly Activities Report, page-11

Thanks for the id of 2619 chaps.

Hey redux, in re 26o1, so your post of 15/12 was wrong. No criticism, just asking confirmation.

The Q says this: 'Targeted RC drilling programs are planned to commence early in 2017, as soon as the exploration licences are granted and statutory approvals are in place." That's my underlining btw. Therefore, and given the circumstances, 'early 2017' could mean 'before June, say. More waiting!

I can understand wanting to wait before drilling as without knowing what's held it could be somewhat aimless - sporadic, sort of..

How does the Application process work? Is it the case that there a tenement that is not held or about to expire and an App is made to the WAMD by someone to take it up? Then is there a process of advertising and/or notification to neighbours etc and then it becomes administrative and dealt with according to protocol? I don't understand why it takes so long!

The other question, and a burning one perhaps, is how has lil ole ALY been able to snaffle (almost anyway with all-but 2) these tenements from other parties? Was it a watchful eye from say Kevin Cassidy? Or NST, as the major holder, on a full monitor of all things relevant?
