Hi Jiffy
I refer you back to my post just after the Jan results
“ I’m going to try to explain in 3D last weeks results, I was going to do it on a podcast but Bottle had tech issues.
Here goes
Imagine standing in the centre of the ovoid on top of the cover sequence in the year 2050.
We are approximately 1,000m below ground level, looking up the blue sky is just a small oval shape, it’s dark down here and hot with little light.
We are now vertically beneath the western edge of the Dyke , looking towards the east the Dyke is some 200m from us because it is sloping away from us.
The sides of the ore body are coming inwards to meet the Dyke at our level, not being evident at the top.
Looking down we’re at the edge of a 400m shear cliff where the cover has dropped passed the top of the Dyke forming the cliff. You can see through the darkness the Dyke continues to slope away from us.
To the right there is another shear cliff this has been caused by the SE deeps sloping off to the South at these levels.
Turning around to face Northwestwards , imagine the northern corridor and pods are still there. They start about 50 m from us rising up in a huge mound stretching across the ovoid to about 100m high. From there they rise up to the underside of the cover level with the northern pod about halfway up on the left as a great blob of sulphides holding about a 1m oz.
Now looking up to the north to the left of the Dyke on the sides of the ore you can see where the latest drills came through all around 100m down from the top of the ore body through the sides
We have Had 150 to the left and then 149. Underneath the slope of the Dyke you can see HAD61 and then lower down to the right 86W4. On the plan these last 2 look to enter from the other side of the Dyke but that’s an illusion due to the slope of the Dyke.
All these drills are heading towards us then out into the SE Had 149and W2 go out of the ore body at this level over 100m testing the ground for the mining fronts.
HAD 86 W4 goes over 200m outside the ore body but 800m below where we are standing.
This zone we standing in is all crackle breccia a weak grade zone picked up during HAD2 and 4 and this wraps around the northern corridor. It’s this area where we are standing that these drills have been infilling on their way down to the SE crescent to infill that zone.
A few of the other drills announced have been infilling zones within the Northern corridor.
Where we are standing is the area that will increase the inferred tonnage in the MRE2.
The N corridor - the small section that was included in the first MRE will change from inferred to indicated the rest will go to inferred.”
I’m expecting a few more in the next results and that will be the cut off
