Chuck feasibility is just that. You have to determine as best you can the value of what you're going to mine, and then figure out what it's going to cost you to get it out. It soon becomes clear whether it can be mined at a profit from there.

Extra depth is not a mysterious problem it just costs a bit more. Some of the gold mines in SAf are more than three MILES deep as I recall. The figure of 17,000 feet sticks in my mind. Below that the temperature starts to get rather unpleasant, But using Black labour they still made money.

I wish somebody would publish a property map showing the relationship, and size of Snap, King and Suf properties to each other.As you say it brings back a new sense of excitement wondering just how far this dike system reaches, and whether or not it is multi layered or "petalled" or whatever you want to call it. Wonder if it could reach all the way down to MPV, it's less than 100KM I think from Snap.

Cheers
