RE: Was new to me Ometuk,
Apparently you have been putting those long days in the Swedish summer to good use doing research...for which we thank you.
A few things Bill Fisher said caught my attention:
a) The hot spot under the collision of the Caribbean and Atlantic plates likely travelled across the island over geologic time (Think Hawaii). Goldquest seems to have 50 km of this trend covered. in a northwest-southeast corridor.
b) Porosity, not host rock is the key to deposition. So the "Christmas tree" effect of mineralisation may well be encounbtered at greater depth. We simply do not know anything about porosity at depth, but nobody is talking about an altitude dependent boiling zone typical of high sulfidation epithermal deposits. (Romero mineralisation is a different epoch from Pueblo Viejo by 40 million years)
c) IP chargibility really picks up the copper in this environment, which means that searching for the associated gold (generally higher in the system) is simplififed. Thus they are going to IP to death anything that looked interesting on the first go around.
P.S. Will the person who bought some of my shares at a buck kindly return them. There will be a small reward
