I don't think he is avoding a glory hole for any reason. Frankly, I feel that we already hit our first glory hole when we hit 135 grams over 3.5 meters. That is over 4oz of gold per ton or $6,400 per ton of ore. If that is not a glory hole then what is? It seems that the market prefers lower grades over higher grades which makes little sense to me.
In any event, CD wants continuity because continuity is what it takes to build a mine. I agree with him in that regard but I think one hole at another porphyry or one that is all the way down to the base of the current porphyry presents little risk to the stock especially at these ridiculous and artificially low prices. In the juniour resource sector you need to take some risk if you want to create some excitement so as to finance at higher prices.
That said, he is in charge and he is simply very diciplined (perhaps stubbornly so) in his approach to get a 43-101 and wants to use our money as effectively as possible to define a resource. I guess he sees his chances of hitting a glory hole in section 'A' to be as good as hitting a glory hole anywhere else. His wedging approach is being excecuted brilliantly at TPW and is about to prove up many high grade zones at the most reasonable exploration cost in the abscence of a shaft. I think that once he does that, the probability of getting someone to fund a shaft will increase substantially. At that point drilling becomes dirt cheap by comparison and the odds of being able to report a high grade long distance glory hole increase 1000 fold.
