Thanks 1king

Read your post twice before it all became clear.

If I followed you correctly, then the disseminated sulfides are typically the initial mineralizing event which often have higher Ni ratios and may at times produce small amounts of massive which are rarely economic.

Large massive sulphide deposits are typically reworked or remobilized products of disseminated sulphide deposits that have been subjected to some secondary heat source. Is that correct?

All the above being correct, why would DML be looking for massive associated with the root or stem of the original gabro intrusion as opposed to looking for it where the gneiss was faulted and/or cupped?

The reason I was asking about the NiCu ratios was that it seemed as if many of the Cu ratios in the reported semi-massive intersections were elevated similar to the "pots-n-pans" intersection, but again, no mention of PGE's.

I look forward to reading your analysis of the 3D geometry.

Regards.
