RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Does Makuch have what it willAlernativeView,
You said, "The decline began in Sept 08 and is now 835 meters long. This is about 8 months or 240 days. So the overall average rate of penetration is about 3.5 m/day, closer to your suggested number".
Guess what? An Atlas Copco Boomer Drill jumbo has a 14 ft steel which equates to 3.5 meters. The Copco Boomer is the most common Jumbo drill rig on the market today. The Tamrock Jumbo rig has a 16 ft steel. That is the longest steel out there unless they are using extention steel which is possible. In that case they may be drilling 6 m rounds but, I hghly doubt they are consistantly breaking 6 m rounds to the buttons.
3.5m a day is a much more likely /realistic scenerio than 6 m per day. But, that is just my view. Maybe they are doing something outside of what I am accustomed to. However, that is highly unlikely.
Cheers.
