According to the IR guy (mentioned in the NR) he thinks they were taken from the surface outcrops. The two sample locations are 500m apart. I am guessing that the sample spots were chosen because of some obvious indicator minerals there. I'm hoping that they were sampling right on a dyke or better still a pipe. I'm not knowledgeable enough on diamonds to know whether you can get these kinds of results from an alluvial deposit (i.e. eroded kimberlite from somewhere upstream or upglacier).
