RE: maybe one of you geology or geometry buffsOh, they should hit for sure. That's never been in doubt ( by me anyway). The real question, and the reason for the sissor hole, is the true width of the mineralization. If you crisscross two holes like that on the same section you should be able to calculate the true width fairly accurately. I think alot of people bought this stock who only read the news release - I'm hoping most of them are gone already and the remainder are people who understand what they are looking at. If, for instance, the true width of the mineralized section is the 25 -30 metres the Coffins guesstimated you would have say 30 metres thickness and at least 300 metres of down dip(hole 10 would be 275 metres down dip if its that thick). Using a standard gravity of, say 4, thats 30 x 300 x 4 = 100,000 tons per metre of strike. That's pretty good for a VMS
Not much doubt they will hit - the question is are peopl's expectations realiztic. I think so, with the way its trading.
