Some food for thought this morning, Gary:

"Porphyry-related deposits are formed in the epicrustal volcanic environment and constitute a principal source of copper-gold-molybdenum. Shallow porphyry intrusives, stockworks and breccia systems form large tonnage (up to several billion tons) low-grade deposits amenable to low-cost bulk mining and treatment. They are generally one to ten miles in diameter and may extend to a mile in depth. Commonly thy are capped by a barren leached capping which is underlain by a secondary zone."

Note the potential size of these types of deposits. Add the unusally large placer deposits to the equation not to mention the rich Catan vein: add it all up and what do you get?
