I guess Randy forgot to plug one of the holes they drilled from the lake ice!

LOL! Good one.

Actually, all underground workings make water to some degree, and the Snap Lake access was no exception. Once they shut the pumps down, the access flooded from natural causes.

The water will be dutifully pumped out again, once De Beers goes back to work again.

Had any drill holes been left unplugged and did not become sealed with lake sediments -- goose crap and the like -- then some workers would had a pretty busy time making a patch. You can't miss that kind of leak.

Regards,

WillP

Was interesting a show but not the first one I seen either.
I was hoping maybe Shear was on there but it was not to be.

Good reading in the Resource World Magazine(Special Diamond Issue)

Stink bids well I guess it depends on where they were and at what prices.

eclogitic garnets in Shears core thats nice too see too :)
