New Discovery Resulting in a 20KM Mineralized Gold Belt
Morning,
You may be giving people an incorrect picture here. When you use an example of 100m intersection with 1m at 100g/t and then extrapolate that forward to report a 100m intersection with an everage grade of 1g/t you couldn't have factored in a cut off grade or your cut off grade is zero. Your explanation is misleading, as there isn't ANY company reporting like that. Everyone must stop the intersection once they drop below the cutoff grade. Your making it sound like we are somehow more noble than everyone else. We have a slightly different type of deposit which requires us to report in a different manner that reflects the cut off grade in relation to the nugget problem. Other company's who don't have the nugget effect can have longer intersections where they are still within their cut off grade window while our nugget situation puts us outside the window until we hit the next intersection . We don't report the way they do because we can't ...not because we don't want to.
If I have this wrong please correct me.
