Thanks Magic for the analysis and no need to apologise; there's plenty of information on google to help the individual to break it down into Layman's terms.
That deep hole by artemis was drilled in 2018 l...not now ffs
That article is plain wrong
It was drilled 1000km from the Paterson by the useless previous management and found nothing
Never mind, found it.

I think it is one of the targets surrounding Havieron identified on pages 6 & 7 of the Artemis update issued tonight
Artemis share price seems to be falling.
I saw this about Artemis in an article dated 29th October 2020. I put it up earlier. (at least at this time of night I think I did)
The article states this in the last paragraph of the Deep and Complex section.
More recently, DDH1 won the contract to drill the deepest diamond drill hole in Australia. Artemis Resources is drilling a +3.3km “super-deep” diamond drill hole (ASD-1) to test rock sequences in the Pilbara Basin from surface to deep into the basement’s geology. The drill site has been prepared, pre-collared to a depth of 40m and cased ready for diamond drilling.

When they say Pilbara 'Basin' is that close to Havieron or is it closer to the coast, further north?
So Artemis' report is decent. They too interpret a deep granite body. One thing I forgot to mention is the fact Havieron appears to be an anticlinal structure trending NW-SE. Artemis have also interpreted this and I know others i.e Hydrogen, Paddy etc have said the same thing. An anticlinal structure is a compressional feature. Anticlines are often not exactly perfect and often are fractured/faulted under brittle deformation. The sulphide zone extends down to depth rather vertically and so doesn't appear fixed to a layer. So I still favour the interpretation that the sulphide zone is concentrating along "cracks" within the overall anticline structure. Bloody complex ore body haha
Hells bells Magic, Please don't apologize for your brilliant technical analysis of what you see..
You play an integral part of a wonderful team of people who interpret the data for us all to understand. If your right about Scally and we hit big there like you think, then that proves that Callums Methods of exploration are really on the money which gives further confidence for drilling the Paterson East project
Hi Bamps
I think after the breccia has formed, regional compression has caused a process called basin inversion. During this process, there is movement along pre-existing faults and weaknesses. When this happens, fluids can move any metals or sulphides present and deposit them into these cracks like you say. So if i've read your question correctly, then yes,
Evening Bamps. Hope you and the family are well? I just go bac to see this - NCM dropped this earlier than I was expecting! Having to take it all in now. Trying to get my head around it. All the best. Flashy!
And even more so with your Scallywag post!
Hi Magic
If you're right and the breccias came first could this weakness around both crescents be caused shrinkage away from the existing and then the the sulphides filling the cracks.
Outstanding news tonight shall enjoy studying the drill logs
ATB:))
Hi Magic,
No need to apologise for the long posts, you can make them as long as you like.
Far more informative than most.
Thank you so much

I think if we got two stages and the fact that Scally looks even more structurally controlled than Havieron, then I would say there's a good chance the remobilization is greater at Scallywag and could lead to higher grades. I can't say for certain but the proximity to Havieron, it's geophysical responses, similar regional geology and structural geology makes it a very good target. If i'm right in that the remobilization is linked to folding etc, Scally looks quite strongly folded and so we may get significant vein type mineralization and remobilized sulphides. This would be fantastic!
My only question is please tell me the “ remobilization event” does not mean all that gold is not going to sink into the earths core.
Just seen Artemis have something. Will take a read and see what they say. They seem very clued up on the geology and put out ideas.
Sorry Spinrock - the last paragraph is kinda all you need to know anyway. The rest is me waffling and writing like a scientist haha! Basically - we make the breccia, we deposit metal, we then remobilise that metal into the crescent zone and create the higher grades. Two stage system hypothesis.
Hi Magic,
Artemis have just released a new report tonight also - no drilling results yet but some new geological interpretation and images on there that might shed a bit more light on the region.

The Guinness doesn't help mind :))
will have to read all posts again in the morning
I appreciate what your trying to tell us Magic but I may need the help of Hydro to interpret what you have just said....I only really understood the last paragraph,
sorry Magic
So looking at the new updated cross sections of the Havieron deposit, we can see an inner zone of mineralised crackle breccia enclosed within a wider crackle breccia using the geology given on the diagrams. The high grade sulphide appears as a set of shoots occurring close to the interpreted boundary of the breccia zone. However the occurrence of breccia outside of the crescent sulphide zone such as the new potential Eastern Breccia target has got me thinking about the relationship between the two.
This is just a hypothesis based on the data so could be wrong. However, it looks to me as if the crescent sulphide zone is cross-cutting the breccia. This would suggest the breccia formed prior to the sulphide zone. Further evidence is the fact the sulphide zone appears close to the margins of the breccia. If we place that in the overall tectonic framework and the ideas we've come up with regarding a possible structural control, this might make sense. The hydrothermal fluids sourced from a nearby granite generate a breccia through overpressuring of the rock and possibly dissolution of the carbonate within the sediment host rock. The fluids contain metals which deposit in between the breccia fragments after cooling and/or reactions with a different fluid composition. This is followed by remobilization of the pre-existing sulphides in a 2nd stage related to some compression in the region into the sulphide crescent zone. Since the shape of the crescent sulphides appears vertical, this could be concentrating along pre-existing weaknesses such as faults or fractures. I originally thought there might be a porosity control on the sulphide crescent but that looks a little less likely now in my view.
What this suggests (if correct) is that Havieron might contain two mineralization events leading to breccia associated Au mineralization and the Sulphide crescent zone. In the geology section of the appendix, it mentions massive sulphide replacement as a style of mineralization which kinda adds further weight to a remobilization event in the deposit. Sorry for the long post and the technical information. Happy to answer any questions
