VAUGHN - There could be staking limitations for conservation reasons. I'm in the process of getting an up-to-date claim map showing the status of the land in the area including any restrictions. I'll post it. Artie

Hello Vaughn. Given there's lots of time on our hands until TWG's FT results come out, I decided to investigate the posts made on the SUF thread. On #reply-16867892 you had a link that you asked Will to "Take special note of 28 and the last bullet on 35." Well, that led me to "the Tomography studies suggest "thick" roots beneath Baffin Island." Slide 35 Can you or Will talk to me about "Thick Roots"? I am guessing that thick roots are good, maybe because of its implications for kimberlite volume, or finding emplacements withing the diamond stability field, but I really don't know why. There must be a simple answer you could provide. And Slide 28 said: Somerset Kimberlites: 1- Emplacement ages range from 105 to 88 Ma. 2- Bodies are aligned along a variety of basement and host rock structures - dominantly NW-SE, NE-SW (basement diabase): N-S (basement gneissosity). 3- Xenolith studies have established the base of the lithosphere at 170 km, and a geotherm of 44mW/m2 (Nikos and Batty). 4- Re-Os dating of xenoliths indicates that the sampled lithosphere has Archean dates. 5- Some xenoliths were derived from within the diamond stability window. I'm obviously not a geologist... Whats a Ma. - million years? And Vaughn - Can you tell me what caught your attention on slide 28? How about TeeVee? Claude? JP'sThermals?
