Vaughn,
You state, "Tried to tell the thread about this play this spring but few wanted to listen." As I recall you said or implied at one point that the source of diamonds at Snap Lake was possibly or probably on the SUF/KLA property. That has been pretty much discredited by all the geologist from Aber and WSP and from Russia, if my understanding is correct. So, we heard what you said, but listened to "higher authorities."
You also said some other questionable things that George mentioned in his postings of a couple days ago*. Weren't you wrong about the geological age of the kimberlite and weren't you wrong about the temperature at Snap Lake having been too high to allow macros to survive in their journey to the surface?
It's probably my short attention span when it comes to things scientific, but the impression I'm left with when comparing George's musings about diamonds with your's, is that I should put my money on George's conclusions if they clash with yours (and do my own dd, yadayadayada). So it's not that we didn't want to hear what you had to say last spring, I think - it's that we perhaps questioned your geological credentials.
Also, if you go back to spring, you seemed to be constantly touting SUF and a couple others (I own SUF, so I don't mind) and constantly warning us that there probably wasn't much at Snap Lake. Well, of course there's no pipe yet, and I think WSP needs tonnage to be viable, but given the odds against a mine resulting from a diamondiferous kimberlite, if I owned KLA, I'd be concerned that KLA is now where WSP was at $4.55 - possibly ahead of itself.
Having said all that, don't be a stranger to the thread. We need all opinion here. But when you say in essence, "I told you so," I, for one, don't think so.
* (Here is the first part of George's post from a couple days ago)
1. First the myth that these diamonds were not found on their property
as reported last January by individuals on this thread has been
dispelled.
2. Secondly., some proposed that the sources were not conducive to pipe
formation because of geological time frams. Fact> Pipes have been
found on Camsell Lake. The best geologists in the business feel the
geology is 70Mil yrs well within the realm of uneroded kimberlitic
sources. If that is the case., the widespread trains were not caused
by eroded sources. The intersections of dyke material., in my opinion
does not reveal those trains to be sourced from the Dyke material.
3. Thirdly., 186 has not revealed it self surficially., at this point.,
so I guess one can scratch that source off from being the likely source
up ice from 186. An up=ice source from 186 indicates
another source is likely to have caused the shedding down ice.
4. Fourthly., the 4 diamonds found 600Meters to the Southeast is not
condusive according to ice-flow patterns to have originated from 186. |
