Enlarge the pic and date is obvious...11/1/18...Sweet!
Nope. What you thought was the date was actually the diamond drill hole (DD-H) number. DD-H-01-18. That was an "H", not an 11. One of the first things in Acme core drilling class was how to label core boxes.
Besides, today's PR said they just started drilling. More than two weeks after certain enthusiastic Mexus investors stated over and over and over, ad nauseum, that drilling had started Nov. 1st.
