Bob,

Hard to come up with big fish when the waters they are in are full of chopping knives (faults) <g>. Problem with this area is structure- things are narrow and get cut off fairly quickly along strike by faults. Look at ARPs drill plan and you will see that there are not too many straight lines. I would think these "showings" are either metamorphosed ultramafic dikes/sills or volcanics with associated magmatic oxides/sulfides. Not VMS.

I do not know about Midrim, but a company did some work in the area SW of here at a place called Lac Sheen in the 80s. I am not sure if they were also doing the work on the Midrim as well. They had found some spectacular mineralized boulders (5.91 g/t Pt, 3.06 g/t Pd and 6% Cu), and located a bedrock source that was very small. After trenching and then drilling it like a swiss-cheese and coming up with very small intersections they abandoned ship. The Midrim stuff ARP has reminded me very much of Lac Sheen.

But anything is possible in nature sometimes...
