LearntoTrade, are you sure trenching cannot be used in a 43-101 resource estimate? I understand that trenching, cross cutting and drilling can be used in 43-101 calculations. Logically speaking if you miss with a drill then crosscut and find the vein, measure the cut width and depth of the vein and send a representative sample into the lab it seems you have better results than a drill passing though the same area. Trenching would give you measurements and samples of the vein in all directions and would only be limited by depth and machine capability.

I understand that trenching and crosscutting will contribute significantly to CCB's 43-101 resource estimate and believe it was a good strategic move by management to switch to focusing more heavily on those results while limiting the hit and miss with the drill.

It is a shame the trenching does not count for the 43-101 resource.
