I feel there was a separation between John Brophy and Lori, very early in the game, just after the first 3-5 drill holes were drilled. I presume that John, being a prominent geologist, did not agree with Lori not targeting the areas properly. I feel John knew then, that she was up to something, and did not even tell him.

 These first 3-5 holes drilled, had to be done by Bradley Brothers, of which Lori never put out a news release that Bradley ever drilled the property, but was revealed through one of the infamous "John Doe" videos.

 I also went over the geology of the Tesoro with John, although he never really admitted thew Tesoro was big, he did not deny it either.......
