Denis, if you look at the map that shows the roads and the airstrip the dry hole is about due east of the EW leg of the airstrip and due north of the western boundary of the drilled-out first sq km. That makes it just shy of 2 km north of the northern edge of the 1st sq klick. From the map I have the NS direction of the BRX deposit is about 3 km wide and the EW direction is about 5.7 km long. It appears like it'll run beyond the eastern property bondary and well beyond the southern boundary. I believe my map indicates the 23 sq mile boundary and I'm not sure where the latest 3 sq miles were added but this map clearly shows where I'd want them to be on the south and maybe eastern side. I sure hope they post this color-coded concentration gradient map on their web page. It's a horizontal slice through the 3-dimensional assay data model they're building. It shows 7 different concentrations (I don't have the key and that's one of my questions for IPM) superimposed on the surface map. It's beautiful and a picture's worth a thousand words, but, suffice it to say for now that the 1st sq klick is not centered in the sweet spot but its SW corner intersects it.

BTW, Mr Furlong was glad they found this dry hole becauses it may be a fault line that will help them develop the geological model of the BRX deposit and also may indicate where to look for enriched dykes poking up from bedrock. I'll give you Tom Dodge's take on that in my trip report.
