Hello LMF Hard to say exactly what they are suggesting as their terminology isn't technical. In theory, any valley, slip fault, dike, ridge, elongated magnetic/electromagnetic signal or discontinuity could reasonably be termed a corridor. I am presuming they are referring to a valley/collapse fault running parallel to the graben I rattled on about last year. As for the source, that's total conjecture at this point. One would presume that a pipe would produce a magnetic/electromagnetic signal big enough to be obvious under that limestone cover however such a signal has never been mentioned I don't believe. So perhaps there is a discrete dike deep enough and narrow enough not to be obvious against the background noise of the kimberlite scree. Too little information to reasonably provide any picture at this point. In theory, there should be a series of collapse faults parallel to the graben but as to number, you would have to look at an aerial photograph to find out. A reasonable assumption would be at least three. Frost boil action can be quite rapid geologically speaking and I certainly doubt what they are looking at has been there 150,000 years. More likely accumulated over 6-10K years since the last ice age. Thats about all I think you can presume from this very thin NR. Regards Vaughn
