I think they may have jumped the gun here on the bulk sample location....
The 200 kg sample sent in for caustic had more diamonds than this entire 66 tone equivilant sample.... They seam to have chosen a barren section.... I don't know if the previous caustic samples were individually tested to confirm grade.... obviousely a erroor has been made in choosing this location for the sample..
There are 3 known sills in the Mud Lake structure.... This sample from the top sill. Could the diamonds in the Caustic sample have been from one of the other 2 sills..... Must be so as the diamonds came from somewhere....
Error in judgment was thinking the whole structure is a homoginous body.... It obviousley is not. Just as SGF has had better grade with the earily kimberlite.... SNO has differing grades of kimberlite.....
Tomorrow is going to be a rough day, no point in selling for me... in too deep.
I quess I will be able to tell Allan " I told you so" the next time I talk to him...... I just mentioned that in Friday again.... You should have drilled more holes and sent in more kimbie to answer the colour question.....!
I wasn't expecting to have minute grade as a result. I think I could find more diamonds in my garden.
