Ari...I know a fair bit about Foran's deposit.

I looked at a previous study on it to see if the eyes could be picked out of it (high graded) for fast payback. However, grade is quite uniform across the deposit. It needs zinc much greater than $C0.60 to fly and a deal with HBM and S. Capital could be kept low if they access by decline and perhaps shipper feed to Flin Flon concentrater (70 km or so) but still the numbers don't add up. Current drilling is mostly infill I believe. Very hard to miss that tabular orebody.
