That is a function of the orebody. Frankly I would rather have 20 feet of 0.20 OPT and a tabular orebody, with about 15% variability than 5 feet of 0.50 oz's per ton. You can get the miners for the 20 foot stuff. (and that ain't easy...) but it is some hard to come up with a good method of mining 0.50 over 5 feet without dilution these days. Short a few hundred cousin jacks. Perhaps cloning would help. Clone a cousin jack, win the nobel, and the eternal thanks of hundreds of mining managers and shift bosses. I have a method of breaking ore with no dynamite and shrinking with no back support -- totally safe. Works on variable geometry with minimal training and fast cycle. 100 tps. maybe more. dead easy. With tabularity it is even easier. Instead of powder you hook up a very constipated mule and tie its tail to the blast hole. You then add a gallon of castor oil to a canvas bag. More on that later. We are dealing with the ventilation problem right now. EC<:-}
