Hi Aries,

Thanks for that, I've actually seen it already, but I'll use your post as an opportunity to comment (for what its worth), if I may...

On the face of it this is quite positive and certainly seems to have whipped a few board participants into a frenzy of euphoria at the news that we have 'ostensibly' located uranium in the aforementioned drilled holes....

A few points to note and words of caution however... please read this very carefully as Mr Berman, given his past history, seems to be quite partial in the use of semantical foreplay...

an independent uranium drill logging company contracted by the company began the initial step in the process of quantification on the first ten holes drilled on its Cache claims in Utah's Lisbon Valley

So, an independant unamed drill logging company, began the 'initial step' in the process of quantification on the first ten holes drilled....

Would it be presumptuous to ask which drill logging company...? and the depth to which these holes were drilled?

This is how Mesa deliver good news of this type... The full PR release can be found at http://www.mesauranium.com/s/NewsReleases.asp?ReportID=191942&_Type=News-Releases&_Title=Mes....

Mesa Uranium Begins Drilling At Lisbon Valley Project

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mesa Uranium Corp. (TSX.V: MZU) ("Mesa") is pleased to announce commencement of drilling at its 100%-owned Lisbon Valley project in San Juan County, Utah. Bob Beeman Drilling Company of Moab, Utah has been selected as the drilling contractor and Jet West Geophysical Services of Farmington, New Mexico will provide drill hole logging services. Drill programs have been designed for the following target areas with an expected minimum of 50,000 feet:



... the full PR also includes target maps and quite definitive information related to the exploratory drilling... This is the way Mesa conduct themselves... does anybody out there actually think that if there is substance to the claims made by Mr Berman regarding these claims, that he shouldnt perhaps be equally forthcoming...?

To confirm these findings using alternate methodology, core samples taken from the tailings of the drilled holes are being sent to an independent laboratory for assay

....interesting... and just how were these cutting samples collected...? I see no cyclone/hopper to collect reverse circulation samples and the hole (we can see in the picture) is not sealed, which suggests this is direct circulation; pressurised water (as opposed to air given the lack of compressor and effing big water bowser in the foreground), forced down the drill rod to lubricate the tricone bit and return cuttings to the surface... there is also no reservoir to capture cuttings (contaminated as they return up the outside of the drilling rods) to be filtered and bagged for further analysis... so again... how were these contaminated samples collected... interesting question dont you think...?

Preliminary field analysis of these tailings indicates such mineralization as to suggest a reasonable probability that uranium is present in the area.

Despite some real crackers, this has to be the most ambiguous statement to date from any RSDS representative... "a reasonable probability that uranium is present in the area"... no sh*t.... historically 'the area' is positively swamped in uranium ore... heaven forbid that we should receive anything more substantive than the perpetual ambiguous statements we are so used to now... yawn...

Ok... back to building the house...

Cheers, J.
