Ooooopppps!,.....I blew the area calculation of the Winspear "feeder pipe model" as per my last post (#16081). If the radius of the feeder pipe is 1 km, then the area is (radius)**2 * 3.1416/10000 hectares which is 314 hectares, not 1250 (hope I didn't stop any hearts out there). Even still it will be the biggest kimberlite (blind) pipe ever found, if it's round. I believe M1 in Botswana is the current record holder, it's only 180 hectares.
