7 Veins?

Focused on becoming a near-term Gold Producer
We have been told about and given descriptions of 6 veins. However, we have also been told:
"Continued prospecting of the south-eastern strike of the Golden Extension vein has located a one metre wide quartz vein 1.5 kilometres southeast of the Golden Extension." (i.e. SGX-KXL border)
This is not one of the previously described 6 veins. We have been told that 5 is an extension of 1. Would seem '7' also a likely extension of 1 and, therefore, 5.
Therefore, isn't there really 7 veins?
Thanks in advance.

Vein #1 – the Golden Extension Vein – sampled over 60 metres of strike length and is open both northwest and southeast. There have been 59 channels cut into the vein at a sampling density of one every metre. Visible gold is present within the vein and in the weathered zone immediately above the vein.
Vein #2 – Located 8 metres south of the north-western end of the stripped area of Vein #1. Vein #2 strikes east-west and has been stripped for 78 metres. The vein and veinlets occur within a highly sheared zone of up to 6 metres wide with siliceous wall rock and 5-10% disseminated pyrite. Visible gold is present in both the vein material and the weathered zone immediately above the vein. Twenty channel samples have been cut within the veins and the mineralized wall rock. The vein is open to the west and east.
Vein #3 – Located 25 metres north of Vein #1. Vein #3 has been trenched for 90 metres and strikes 100 degrees. Vein #3 consists of up to 5 metres width of sheared and mineralized wall rock, veins and veinlets. Pyrite occurs as subhedral clots within the veins and as disseminated masses within altered and silicified wall rock. Molybdenite and chalcopyrite are also present in the vein and wall rock. Visible gold has been located in the weathered zone immediately over the sheared zone.
Vein #4 – Located 57 metres northwest of Vein #1, Vein #4 comprises two parallel vein systems which have been stripped over a strike length of 62 metres and trend northwest-southeast. Visible gold has been identified in one of the veins.
"Vein 5 is an extension of Vein 1 trending SE and is now over 100 metres. It is 1Km from the SGX/KXL border. We will update our Vein map on the homepage soon outlining the vein structures."
"Vein 6 is 70 meters NW of Vein 4 and we are still stripping and trenching and channel sampling as we go which is standard procedure. The length hasn’t been determined since we are still there. We will update the website with this information when program completed Dec 19."
