https://www.snowfield.com/main/news/nr060828.html A small smaple of a SNO news release 28th AUG. 06 " Review of the published information from kimberlites worldwide, reveals that "green garnets" with similar chemical compositions to those found at Mud Lake, and in this new prospective area, fall into the same compositional range as those reported from a number of diamond bearing kimberlites. These kimberlites include the Premier, Kampfersdam, Newlands and Bulfontain mines in South Africa and the Udachnaya mine in Russia. It is also worth noting that every occurrence of "green garnets" in published information on kimberlites worldwide shows a direct correlation between the presence of "green garnets" and diamonds. In fact in almost every kimberlite where green garnets and diamonds are present these kimberlites are diamond mines. The Mud Lake kimberlite has the first reported occurrence of "green garnets" to be found in bedrock in the Slave Craton. Recently the Company announced encouraging caustic fusion results (NR06-31) from drill core that has proved that the Mud Lake kimberlite is macro diamond bearing with encouraging macro diamond distribution. The two largest stone fragments recovered exceed two millimeters in their longest dimension. The Mud Lake kimberlite can be added to the group of kimberlites that has found "green garnets" and diamonds. " Definitly Macro diamond bearing. Not Dirt as Frosty would have you believe. Another news release from the 3rd of Mar. 05 https://www.snowfield.com/main/news/nr050303.html "Snowfield is taking this opportunity to explain its decision to proceed with a bulk sample as opposed to undertaking a program of caustic fusion of a small sample of drill core kimberlite to recover microdiamonds at Mud Lake. It is submitted that one of the most important aspects of mining diamonds is to establish the value of the product (quantity, quality and size of diamonds) recovered. It is therefore of paramount importance to establish: are diamonds present and if so how many (the grade) and what is the dollar ($) value of these stones. Many kimberlites currently being mined are economic purely because of the presence of large, high-grade stones. The existence of large stones can effectively only be established by bulk sampling. Specifically, for these reasons and the additional fact that due to the property's close proximity to Yellowknife and the near surface orientation of the kimberlite, Snowfield can process a large sample for a reasonable cost. The process of bulk sampling kimberlites, where possible, is an accepted and normal exploration procedure throughout the world. Snowfield is of the opinion that by not acquiring a large enough test sample from a kimberlite, such as in the caustic fusion of a small sample of drill core, critical exploration decisions could be made on inadequate and misleading information. A recent discovery in Ontario clearly illustrates this point. The kimberlite indicator mineral chemistry from that particular Ontario kimberlite pipe was mediocre; the microdiamond count was extremely low, yet after taking a bulk sample this particular kimberlite has yielded diamonds with a carat value in excess of $300 per carat."
