Near 'nuff?

Nearology has returned to the Australian stock market, so it seems.

Avalon Minerals has IPO'd at a nice premium. Two separate stories (this one and this one) carried this quote, which Guambat reckons contains a typo:

"The Lennard Shelf are of the West Kimberley region of Western Australia is a world-class base metal province," Mr McSweeney said.

McSweeny is the MD of the Chinese-backed company.

Guambat reckons the word "are" was intended to be the word "area" ("The Lennard Shelf area of the West Kimberlyey region ...."). Avalon appears to be ramped up on the basis of being nearer my gold to thee.
