Sorry, Abbo - there is not much I can add to what has already been published about Sungem. I did speak briefly to Jeremy Metcalfe after the RNS was released, and to the best of my knowledge they had received only the one set of assay results, from the first hole - the remainder were expected in the New Year. I expect even Minmet can't judge quantities and extents from a single core! ;-)
Mike Walters also spoke to him, clearly, before writing his piece, as he was able to state that all cores had contained visible mineralisation.
The point about exploration is that the market does not need to be told about anything that is not price sensitive. Hence - as explorers do tend to play their cards closer to their chests, for obvious reasons - very little is issued in the way of progress reports dealing with the usual mundane business of drilling and sampling.
However, thinking about what is going on in Brazil, i expect we will get some news over the next weeks and months, as so many of the projects are reaching key stages - such as bulk sampling, first-stage stuff at Mara Rosa, the long-awaited diamond sampling permit etc etc.
And for Portugal, sorry to say it, but as always, time will tell.
