Around 2,000 metres of RC drilling is planned over the summer, and the company is well-funded, so there could be significant follow-up work going into the autumn. Meanwhile, a bulk sample has been sent away for testing, and Ed himself is off to Washington next week to put Great Western's name in front of some influential people. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-vox-markets-podcast-3914537/episodes/2399-great-western-all-set-for-us-tungsten-drilling/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-vox-markets-podcast-3914537/2399-great-western-all-set-for-us-tungsten-drilling.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
