It says multiple northerly trending feeder structures in the east-west trending zone, so it's OK. A good map would be nice, though. I haven't had time to look for one.

I understand what you are saying and I agree. But keep in mind that historical drilling was done across strike from what they say and confirmed the presence of gold.

We will see what Hole 003 gives us. This one was NorthWest..more or less across strike.

In these two new holes they hit reasonably high grade given that historical holes had grade of 1.2-1.4 g/t gold. So we have across strike holes with lower grade and on strike holes with grades almost twice as high. This is in the main zome which was believed to average 1.2 g/t.

They didn't hit the super high grades because these holes where drill several hundred meters from where those channel samples returned the higher grades.

This excerpt from a previous release:

Detailed follow-up is continuing to the north and south along strike of the high-grade exposure where several gold-rich channels, including 125.9 grams per tonne gold over 23 metres and 19.15 grams per tonne gold over eight metres

I conclude that the channels were on strike but that they got high values over a certain width across strike. However this statement in italic is confusing, so I could be wrong.

hank2010 : Agree with you on samples along strike making you nervous . Think of Kodiak on that issue .

That though was a shear zone deposit and this one is more difficult for me to understand .
