'clean out Bald Butte'Note: 'clean out Bald Butte'
Bald Butte's production of 380+ days that was shallow define drilled is only for the Higher Grade area, not the entire deposit !!!
A little of the Profit$ reinvested in more SHALLOW drilling on the Patented (not to mention the surrounding 'claims') and you can easily see YEARS worth of Higher Grade rock to mine from the 'lowly 'toy'' PRODUCING and PROFITABLE Mine !!!

To reduce costs later, work out a deal to use the Rail Siding thats only 8 miles away...Same # trucks now hauling 1/10th the distance...4,6,8x the # of loads into a Train of 90T Hopper Cars... Even if its lower grade material. by the Trainload cuts transportation costs by truck. (only that 'lowly' 0.077 % Mo instead of the Higher Grade 0.127 %)
Does anyone have realtime depth ?
