RE:RE:RE:Copper Gossan Goldy63,. We only wish,. that this weather"d Black oxided top is familiar in grade with the Green top on the other side of the gully..Copper/sulphides , exposed to the climate can change colour as we see with the bright Blue Borite well change to Black in colour after exposed to the air...
..The copper Gossan sitting to left of the Gully, showing up black in video ,could be rich copper sulphides that turned Black after centuries of exposer..We due know here from Bays news that we see here in slide one Historic hole but i don"t recall the grade ..
..PS,.I shared a story here with you, one i heard from a trusted friend around a DECADE ago, the young piliots daughter mentioned to boots on the ground, { that black top looks like an air strip...}
..I heard she could run a mile in 8 and she did this black top in 12,..go-figur..So , now seeing recently the release of these pics showing this black top near a decade later for my-self sure strikes home,.,
..Goldy63,...I will post here from news release"s, actual lines written ,.
, Not hype, but what lyes ahead Going West..
..PS,..Reading between the Lines....
'Drill Hole ST22-06-ST22-06 was drilled to a downhole depth of 152m. The drill hole was designed to test the continuity of mineralization below historical drill hole ST99-19, which encountered 56m* @ 3.07% Cu from 12.2m.
Drill hole ST22-06 intersected visually similar geology and copper mineralization to ST99-19, with mineralization starting from 21.4m downhole. The drill hole encountered a central zone of massive and brecciated sulfides within a broad interval of vein style, chalcocite dominant mineralization. This drill hole confirms the continuity of the mineralization at depth in the western part of the thick, structurally controlled mineral system.
The 2750N Zone remains open to the west of drill holes ST99-19 and ST22-06 and this area is currently being drill tested. To the west of the 2750N Zone is a large gully (Figures 2 and 3), and this may have been formed by a N-S fault orientated perpendicular to the main strike of the mineralization. Importantly, extensive copper has been identified in outcrop across the gully to the west, which suggests that the mineralization may continue for some distance along the strike of the 2750N Zone.
Table 4 summarizes the mineralization as observed in ST22-06. Intersections are expressed as downhole widths and are interpreted to be close to true widths. Visual estimates of sulfide type, quantity and habit should not be considered a substitute for laboratory assays. Laboratory assays are required to determine the widths and grade of mineralization as reported in preliminary geological logging.
Hole ID | From (m) | To (m) | Min | Description (Sulfide volume within interval) |
ST22-06 | 21.4 | 23.8 | chpy | Small chalcopyrite veins cross cutting breccias (1%) |
| 36.4 | 57.5 | chpy/py | Broad zone of veinlets within fractured dolomite (1%) |
| 70 | 76 | cc/py | Massive and strongly mineralised grading downwards to vein style mineralization (2.5-40%) |
| 80 | 96.5 | cc/py | Veinlets within fractured dolomite (1-2.5%) |
| 96.5 | 105.5 | cc/py | Veinlets and brecciated (2.5%) |
| 105.9 | 109.5 | cc | Brecciated dolomite with chalcocite within calcite veining |
Table 4: Description of intervals with visually identified mineralization in drill hole ST22-06. Mineralogy key is cc = chalcocite, bn = bornite, chpy= chalcopyrite, py = pyrite, Cu = native copper, az = azurite, ml = malachite, cv = covellite..
......PS,..CHECK THE DIMMENSION" S ACCORDING TO SCALE ON SLIDE, THE YOUNG JOGGER WAS RATE ON 1.5 MILES IN LENGHT AND DOES LOOK LIKE AN AIR STRIP..
