CAN YOU PICTURE THIS ?? We all know how the Diamond Fields $4.3 billion nickel deposit was discovered. The top of the mother lode (32 million tons ?) was showing on the surface. Sometime latter about 160 drill holes later,? they discovered down quite deep a 5 or 6 km narrow stream of nickel and minerals moving eastward called the Eastern Deeps. A similar situation occurred with a long stream of nickel running westward from the ovoid known as Western Extension. Let's say when drilling first started on Diamond Fields, they new nothing of the massive Ovide, and the top of this Ovide was hidden just 5 or 6 meters under the surface. Now let's say the first sign of nickel discovered on Diamonds Fields, was not the ovide, but was struck at the very east end of the Eastern Deeps. IF they moved the drill further eastward there was nothing, but following the deep stream moving westward they would have tracked the Eastern Deeps 5 or 6 km before they would have struck the MAIN OVIDE. The same can be said for the Western Extension. THEREFORE, if TECK/Donner can strike massive sulfides 3 or 4 drill holes in a row, they may have hooked on to one of those long squid tentacles that would eventually once followed along, lead them into the main body - the mother lode or the body of the giant squid. What do you think?
