sample to 2,201.7 kg. Microdiamond recovery was completed by

These two pipes have similar diamond distribution, including
larger stones with RIP reporting 24 stones greater than 0.85 mm and
DD17 reporting 20 stones greater than 0.85 mm. The two larger
stones from RIP, weigh 0.44 and 0.19 carats.
A total of 9 kimberlite pipes plus several unspecified related
kimberlite dikes exist on the property. Untested targets include
signatures with both positive and negative magnetic anomalies, and
weak electromagnetic conductors, some of which are under swamps and
lakes. A drill program is being planned for spring 2008 to test as
many as possible.
