To bring fact into play, it doesn't really matter does it. We know they are drilling and nothing we say or do is going to speed up or slow down things.
Believe it or not i'm glad they were slow and things are taking longer than expected. If your smart your take emotion out of it and take advantage of the cheap prices. Thats how you make money in smallcaps, patience, DD and buying a stock cheap.
Not worried about a thing and expecting good gains in my pocket.
all the best!!
