<< It depends on the results of the 4000. If the results show consistency and uniformity it may well be enough. If the variance though out the samples is too great then it will not be enough. >>

My take on this is that they can't really make judgements about the consistency and uniformity of the dyke by looking at the bulk sample results. However, the CF results from the 500kg sample are supposed to give a micro-diamond distribution curve, and when that is compared to each step-out drill hole - they then will be able to determine the consistency of the dyke!

I believe that the 4000 tonnes will be enough to determine the feasibility of mining that small portion of the dyke. Other bulk samples would likely have to be taken from new extensions of the dyke as it is found - unless the drill holes indicate a consistent grade based on CF results.
