Eric, the zone appears to be cut-off on 3 sides by the results to date, but that does not mean the high-grade bed could be narrow and weave between the holes drilled and reported so far. But if that is the case then the narrow width would restrict the size to below economic. The easterly trend of the mineralization does not mean the higher grade zones go down to the base of the gabbro, but they are likely "floating" within the gabbro-norite along structurally-prepared layers.

Actually management should be reporting over the visually massive pyrrhotite-pentlandite 2.5 m thick zone, the heavily disseminated 5 m thick zone above this, and the above 30 m disseminated zone. Perhaps someone should mention to them to put this out in their next release. 7.5 m thickness including the 2.5 m high-grade zone would be safe minimum-dilution room-and-pillar mining thickness.
