Woooo - well that is some tonnage we've got then eh. Let's see - [2.5m true width] x [2000m and counting dip] x [refresh my memory, how many metres from the west side of Snap Lake to Namibia?] x [2.4t/m3] = T ..... we may need calculator batteries for this, and more staking posts. But wait - wouldn't that strike go through or near Timmins? It is said that Timmins is a no-fault zone. Perhaps it bends, and goes through Caracas. Or Bob Bishop's basement, maybe.

Erik, you are running all over the globe on this one and after reading your posts Im completely confused as to how you think an exploration program should be run. You are in charge of a company exploring for diamonds. You hit a dyke, fissure and you say nope dykes are no good? You get results back from a bulk sample and you say no results are too high this property cannt be any good? No point doing any drilling or finding out dimensions of body because drill holes cannt tell you grade so you make one hit and then you start mining? I thought in exploration you did the work and you reported the results you got. You try to figure out what is going on and you modify your program accordingly. According to you WSP should have abandoned this property years ago. BHP is also going about it all wrong. They based their decision to mine on drill holes and insufficient data. They should have bulk sampled every couple hundred feet down those pipes befor they mined? There pipes are far to small by world standards? So Erik please enlighten this befuddled old prospector, if you were in charge of WSP starting at square one when they first started on this project HOW WOULD YOU HAVE RUN THE PROGRAM. regards Walt
