Open meeting updates on 3D seismic work schedule
At a spring open meeting the former Energy and Mines minister said 3D seismic work planned for 1994 was moved up to 1993 with preliminary testing starting in May 1993 and more extensive tests from September to mid-October at an estimated cost of 400000. Current minister Don Orchard gave cautious optimism about progress. Police probe into a brutal cattle slaughter near Bagot reports a cow found in a pasture two miles south with its underside slit open and organs removed. RCMP say no other four legged animal could have killed it, no struggle evident, no bullet wounds, and no suspects yet. The case remains under investigation.
