Well someone saw something they liked this morning...
 3D Delays Haiti drilling campaign pending approvals  3D Resources completes geochemical soil sampling around the Morne Bossa Permit area  3D progresses field analysis of Cosmo Newbery 1. Haiti Gold Projects As previously announced the Company had originally expected to commence its drilling program at Morne Bossa in Haiti by the end of October 2017 but has experienced delays in obtaining necessary permits to enable it import the preferred drill rig, equipment and team to commence the drilling program. The drilling program was necessary to confirm previous resource results and to establish a JORC compliant resource pursuant to its agreement to acquire 75% interests in each of Delta Societe Miniere SA (“Delta”) and Ayiti Gold SA (“Ayiti”) , owners of the Morne Bossa and Grand Bois gold projects respectively. The drilling program was originally expected to take approximately five months and be completed by the end of February 2018 but following initial site preparations by its preferred driller the Company now believes it can reduce the expected drilling time to approximately three to four months. Delta and Ayiti have held numerous meetings and discussions with the Bureau de Mines et L’Energy (BME) over recent months to confirm their intention to proceed with planned feasibility studies and their proposed drilling campaign. However just prior to the release of this Quarterly Report Delta received advice that the BME seeks to enforce a Haitian Senate resolution postponing mining activity until new mining legislation is approved by the Haitian Parliament notwithstanding that the BME wrote to Delta in January 2015 confirming that it still enjoyed all the rights and prerogatives granted to it by the Mining Act of 1976. Delta has received conflicting advice from BME and its local advisers with respect to its ability to carry out its proposed drilling program under the current Mining legislation in Haiti, and is continuing its discussions with BME and its parent department MTPTC to clarify the issue and will make a further announcement when it has completed that process. As previously announced the proposed program set for Morne Bossa includes up to 20 drill holes into the deposit and around the periphery of the known deposit and is intended to facilitate completing the resource assessment to a JORC standard. 2. Cosmo Newberry Gold Project (3D Resources 100% ,except E38/2274 3D Resources 75%) On 27 September 2017 the Federal Court of Australia made a determination recognizing the native title rights and interests of the Sullivan and Edwards family members ("Sullivan Edwards Native Title Group") that coincides with the former Yilka Native Title Claim Group with whom the Company had negotiated a reconnaissance agreements and was negotiating access. The Federal Court has invited all the native title holders to nominate a native title Prescribed Body Corporate (PBC) within a period of six months (from September 2017) for approval by the Federal Court. In preparation for resolution of this matter within the next quarter and future access the company has commenced a thorough compilation and review of all data and proposals for future exploration to progress the project. This will enable rapid implementation of work in this under explored project area once the Federal Court matter is completed. 3. Halls Creek Joint Venture (3D Resources 80%) The company has retained the Halls Creek Mining Lease M80/0247 which contains all the defined resources to date but has not taken action this quarter due to its priority in Haiti and the Cosmo Newberry project. 4. Corporate During the quarter the company held discussions with interested parties in respect to the future of its Cosmo Newberry project. The company has also investigated other mining opportunities in Haiti which it may consider once the proposed new Mining Act is passed.
