Man I am not having a good day... forgot to press 'Question' button... try once more...

Was the 'carbonate rich section' in vertical hole SJ07-07 that unexpectedly contained 15.15g/t Au over 0.73m during last years Jacobus Ni-Cu drilling, quartz-carbonate (i.e. geologically similar to KXL and Golden Extension gold-bearing quartz veins)?

Applicable excerpts below.

Thanks in advance.

According to SGX July 24, 2007 news release:

"Hole -7 - was drilled as a vertical hole in the down dip section of the zone but did not intersect the mineralized gabbro as the hole deviated from the intended target. However, this hole intersected a pyritized carbonate rich section of chloritic tuff that yielded 15.15 grams of gold (Au)/ per tonne over 0.73 metres. This gold bearing horizon represents a new zone of mineralization that is not related to the Ni-Cu mineralization within the gabbro."

According to SGX September 2, 2008 news release:

"Current and continuing work to expose veins on the Golden Extension showing is revealing an extensive network of gold-bearing quartz-carbonate-feldspar-pyrite-cha... veins."

According to KXL website re: Hercules Gold Property:

"Quartz-carbonate veins, frequently containing visible gold and sulfides, have been uncovered by trenching over an aggregate strike length of more than 5 kilometres, with strong individual veins up to 11 metres wide and 1 kilometre long."
