Skylar is the next Goldcorp.

Orebodies like Goldcorp come along once every hundred or so years. The last one like it was Goldstrike, Nevada. It stopped in 1850 at 50 ounces per ton. It started out as 700 ounces per ton. Gold.

Later it became the Meikle Mine. This was the most valuable open pit mine in the world at 0.34 OPT. It was a difficult ore to mill and the thing that made it feasible was the use of autoclaves to make the refactory ore amenable to cyanidation. This sort of underscores the principle that mines are made not found.
