Nice job with the update.

Don't know if you care to add the additional claim blocks mentioned(Power Line & Buffington)for assessments from the following pr, as I would think there will be news sooner rather than later of it's drilling potential for proving out additional reserves. IMO, there's a slight hint that should the ore characteristics pan out to be similar to Longshot Ridge than perhaps it would be mined before Champion or Copper Queen. The locations already show up on your map that you have posted.

Just a thought. Looks good either way.
