Best get your geological dictionaries out folks. One could argue that it is or isn't a dyke, a sill, or a fissure vein. Maybe the phds will come out with an entirely new name for what this is or isnt.
Fissure is the term the south africans use but then theirs are more vertical and often differentiated. Maybe someone will come up with a whole new name for it.
As for speculating on its size this is again very tricky because there really isnt anything I know of to compare it to.
In my humble opinion what wsp has is a unigue situataion and it may be a unigue deposit type. Time will tell. Maybe it should be called a sill like fisssure dyke vein system.
