This latest report ...
This weekend's report ... the third point below MUST be wrong .... 1,120 diamonds totalling .15 carats.
Carats is a measure of weight not quality so this can't be right ???
Any one knowledgeable on this please comment ...
Thanks,
Robert
Highlights of the Report:
- Drilling and geophysical survey results indicate the C29/30 kimberlite has a surface area of approximately 100 ha with 70 to 100 million tonnes of kimberlite in the potential mineral deposit;
- A preliminary 3D geological model of the kimberlite body suggests that the C29/30 kimberlite is a single volcanic complex with three main zones composed of 6 kimberlite units that have clear similarities to other large, diamond-bearing kimberlite bodies in the FalC diamond district;
- Since 2006, a total of 1,120 diamonds totalling 0.15 carats were recovered from microdiamond analyses of 2,434.85 kilograms of drill core recovered from the C29/30 kimberlite;
