No new technical data - activity summaries only. During the start of the period two 3 foot diameter Caldwell drillholes were put down on a Mining Lease at Mountain of Light prospect to bulk sample levels within the upper orebody, down to 102 feet depth. Separate samples containing carbonate, mixed and supergene ores were then submitted to Amdel, who conducted heap leaching tests. The results were encouraging, and further tests are planned. Inconclusive joint venture negotiations took place over the latter part of the period, that may also include sharing production rights to mineralisation on nearby ELs 243, 244 and 245.
