Thanks for the info guys.
Wow. Russett I`m impressed.
When values are given such as 100 a caret what are the minimum sizes that figure in these estimates? Is it .5 mm or larger/smaller?
On an operating mine how small will they go?
Do they collect smaller and ship it off for sandpaper?
What I `m interested in understanding is the Hadley "King Eider" drill core results. They ran the complete core not just "hot intersects".
5 metres to 100 metres (some results still pending) They stated the cutoff was 0.10 mm.
There were not many diamonds but the largest (so far) was over 1 mm x3.
Of these, where can my head say. OKAY, in a operating mine what counts. 0.10? 0.5? 1.0?
Where does it get interesting? 0.25? (I know that has value)
Guess I`m trying to ask: Where can we start counting millimetres diamonds as money if we want to use a valuation of say 100 a caret?
(stumbling here but I think you see what I `m getting at)
