RE: RE: A Blast From The Past Just out of curiosity, Primed, what did you, at the time, believe the giant anomaly to be if not an ore body or disseminated gold deposit?
My experience with anomalies has been that they usually don't pan out, so I never believed it to be a sure thing. But I'll tell you, looking at those pictures, it was easy to get lost in dreamland and believe that the big anomaly might be an ore body. And if it was, oh boy.... Unfortunately, it seems a lot of people made the leap from "possibility" to "certainty." Was it optimism bias whereby people focused on finding information that supported what they wanted to happen and ignoring information that didn't?
I wasn't following this story that closely back in those days. In what way was your survey scoffed and ridiculed?
