RE: None wants to say itThere was only one glory hole,but there are other historic drilling data indicating intercepts of half ounce per ton over multiply holes.So I believe the odds are not really against NOT. The 15 million PP was filled in two days,the pros,the smart money are betting for NOT.Also the price of gold factors in,the higher the price,the lower the deposit size and quality to make a mine.
I believe its only a matter of time on wether we have a big mine or just a small one.
Sometimes if the ore is rich enough ,you can afford to ship it to another mill,instead of building a mill yourself,so it may not to be as big as some would expect to be economical.
Also the company is planning on building a ramp down to the high grade section. TO do further underground drilling to define the deposit.I am sure what ever happens,they will take all the high grade ore out (they do have a ramp)very easy,and this will bring in some revenue.At 50 ounces per ton =50 x600=30,000 a ton...very optimistic,but possible.You can put 10 tons in a dump truck so a gross value of 300,000 per truck load,of course there going to pull that high grade out.The real question is how much gold is really down there,they don,t need much to pay for the ramp etc.Please also remember most mines are 2 to 10 GRAMS per ton,so if there is what could be there,this deposit would be very special!
