the road to success is paved with gold intentions; 1988 i was working at an exploration island camp at Shoal Lake, Ontario (where 12 lb pikerel were not uncommon), 11 weeks in, 1 week out, anywho the boss of the mining and tunneling crew out of Sudbury was instructed to pack a roadway from our landing dock to the prospective gold mine portal (approx 500m away) using some low grade materials stockpiled from our underground access ramp, after a week or so the "road" was passable easily enough with rock trucks and the like, only problem is he used the wrong stockpile, estimated cost $500,000.00, true story.
