RE:RE:RE:Golden Joint Zonethanks yet again Rgeo, my impractical idea was to blast it all at surface and average the grade to 50m, dreams of QNorth as one big pit, as seen from space.
some of those core samples at K92 look pretty familiar :)
best.

You can trench narrow veins from the surface but pursuing them at depth always requires underground mines, unless their dip is very shallow.
K92 mining (KNT) is pusuing high grade, narrow vein Gold mining in Papua-New Guinea. You can think of it as a template for future Queensway mines. It is 7-10 years ahead of Queensway. It's share price is also suffering in the current environment.
