Stand by:An arcticle on Gold Production Mining relating to Visual Gold.
Gold extraction is most economical in large, easily mined deposits. Ore grades as little as 0.5 g/1000 kg (0.5 parts per million, ppm) can be economical. Typical ore grades in open-pit mines are 1–5 g/1000 kg (1–5 ppm); ore grades in underground or hard rock mines are usually at least 3 g/1000 kg (3 ppm). Because ore grades of 30 g/1000 kg (30 ppm) are usually needed before gold is visible to the naked eye, in most gold mines the gold is invisible.
We have already seen visual gold, we just had to move the rig because of depth. Target remained the same.
Then we messed up the hole so we go again.
I doubt if that if we hit VG (30 g per Metric ton) it was restricted to one flake.
Gold fields located within the basin in the Free State and Gauteng provinces are extensive in strike and dip requiring some of the world's deepest mines, with the Savuka and TauTona mines being currently the world's deepest gold mine at 3,777 m.
We are not the first company to drill at these depths or under water.
With all the data we have and the surrounding mines all finding more than reasonable grades my perspective is that gold must be there.
We hit VG on the first attempt when on the other side of the lake. (I can't discount that)
We have proven geology.
We have Gold corp Geologist on our team.
We have Gold cor investing.
Yes we have had issues but I believe the gold is there and I believe Goldcorp believes it is there and I believe Cypress believes it is there.
With all the positive information regarding location and geology and interest if there was nothing there then we must be among the most unlucky of all.
We need patience and skill and we will get there. (God speed as we aproach our destination target)
