Rx,
1. It is very obvious that the company has taken a new approach under the stewardship of AH and is a different beast that it was under CB, PJ and those before.
If this was a 'lifestyle company' as you seem to be insinuating then they would not be undertaking the non-stop drilling activity, mass sampling (stream, soil and rock chip) and drilling activity and would simply do the minimum work and cash burn to stretch out the salaries ....this obviously is not the case as ECR are an exceptionally active company over the last year.
3. The level of rigour is above what you would usually expect to enable better targeting....I doubt you are impressed by much.
4. Yes, the parallel system is yet unproven (as is all of Creswick) ...this is why they are undertaking the drilling programme. The sampling (both soil and rock chip) can however give a degree of confidence.
5. This is where AH's experience cam in ....he ordered the re-testing as he felt the previous results did not reflect the full results (another example of better rigour and a more professional approach)
6. Have you insider knowledge on the Philippine's value....not sure if that will be monetised by a sale or a JV ? As for the property sale, we did get less back although I believe we kept part of the land which may explain the difference.
7. Yes they are doing sampling, but again this was done to a very high volume for extra rigour and the results have exceeded expectations.
8. A 10km strike length give plenty of scope for commercialisation and this will obviously require further investigation and modelling against whatever the Lithium price is in future.
9. Again the company will take a commercial view on this when the resource is better understood.......AH did describe these both as 'potentially world class' .....obviously both these have a way to go before they are proven, but the payoff could be huge.
10. The econd drill was 'mothballed' under the previous CEO. The current CEO has evaluated it, got it for a discount and it is being fitted for it's required use going forward. Should hit the ground next month...another instance of the new CEO moving thigs forward.
11. see 6
12. The drilling is being undertaken as we speak. I believe they were on hole 2 last week.
Time to look forward and not live in the past.
Potential is not something you see in the rear view mirror.
