JP, good luck to you in your trading elsewhere. BTW, dykes can appear in clusters of parallel features. The clusters themselves are not the result of a single event, but isolated occurrences of parallel sequences within a cluster can be from a single, or related event(s). Different sequences within the cluster, therefore, are from different events and will have differing compositions in regards to indicator mineralogy and/or the presence of diamonds. This is quite similar to the so-called Corridor of Hope theory. Therein was found larger numbers of kimberlite pipes, but they are a compilation of differing clusters representing different sequences within the trend. Some economic pipes were found within their own distinguishable cluster, while other clusters were barren or low in diamond content. Therefore, it is not entirely appropriate to dismiss a sequence of dykes simply because others in the trend are shown to be poor prospects.
