Keith = certain metals are much easier to visualize.

Gold is often difficult and shiny chunks may not even mean much.

NIckel is one that visulas can be seen - Cartaway is an example but one wonders if those visuals may not have been exaggereted as they were playing off the DFI-VB success - I just read the book "the big strike" which chronicles the VB find and they mention in the book atht normally 2 people could carry a box with the core in it - the VB core was so heavy with nickel the lads struggled with it.

Cheers
