As apriority a drilling program to investigate the extensions to Anomaly "A", inaddition to Anomalies "C" and "D" is currently being considered with a view todefining an additional resource in the near future. The remaining 11 anomalies,with similar potential to above anomalies, all require follow-up drilling andgeological field programs.
