Our original assumption was that neighboring Pretium Gold had the higher grade, epithermal (top) portion of the very large gold-copper porphyry system we see at KSM and that our property would probably host the high grade copper core of the entire complex at depth

well they've done their magneto telluric survey and picked their targets. They may be holding back on the results so as to prevent them at the denver gold forum. We'll see... However from my limited reading of the geological literature sea is too far away from the brucejack deposits to be discovering their high grade copper epithermal capping... For one the mitchel deposit and the snowfield deposit were originally one deposit. The rock movement that separated them did not separate them by all that much... Now i've read the pretium tecnical reports and I'd swear pretium makes a similar comment about the rock movement being very small in relation to the brucejack faulting process.... ergo if there is a high grade epithermal copper top portion for the large gold copper porphyry system they should be looking much closer to the bridge zone porphyry... Elsewise they should be looking for a new porphyry in the vicinity.... and then taking their bearings from that huh?

the gossan tuo is drilling on the high a candidate for being the epithermal top of a porphyry system.... we'll get some idea soon enough
