Mike like I said we should soon have at least 8 holes to prove or disprove what is there. I guess not having the Chief's expertise many of us fell for "a drive-by assay" instead of waiting for HARD CORE results.

Hi Mike. I am a little confused why it is being referred to as a Breccia pipe. Is this your term or have you read where House calls it this?
As handshake has just mentioned. Mineralization in a drill hole does not mean mineralization throughout the Breccia. Certainly, the odds are increased of mineralization! However, if truly a pipe, then I would be wondering about the size of the porphry in the area.

Chile' has been able to tie its Breccia Cap size to an underlying Porphry below it, in about 70% of the cases. So if you have a Breccia Cap that is 2Km's X 1Km then there is chance that you have a Porphry the same size below it. When I say 70% of the cases I mean 70% of the cases in a given fault areas. I have been unable to determine whether MDIN is in such an area. The fault that the Luksic groups property and Cambior's is such a fault, so far any Breccia found has directly related to a mineralized porphry below it.

A Breccia Cap does not necessarily indicate the porphry is mineralized. So you could have a Breccia sitting over a non-mineralized or uneconomical porphry below it. There are just so many variables it is rediculous.

Mike look at the report and see if a "lat/long" of the property is included, if it is PM me and I'll try to locate adjacent company data(other than Dayton)
