With the good weather came good drilling conditions here at the drill site. Over the past 24 hours, we drilled four runs which totaled nearly 30 feet of core! The rocks recovered were an olivine-rich intrusion and a thick pillow breccia. We also passed the 11,000' mark, and at the time of this report are at a depth of 11,022.4'.
