RE:RE:Re: big volume The gold was introduced to the host rock from hydrothermal fluids from below. Depending on the subsequent crustal movements-thrusting, faulting folding and tectonic events it is quite often impossible to theorize on what's down below. Pretium has used the drill to probe below the current resources and has hit gold in similar geological units as the Valley of the Kings. Because there are reserves to justify the current mine life (eighteen years) there is no panic to diefine the limits of the resource. Because of the encouraging drilling that was done to depth immediately below the VOK there is a very goog chance there is more gold at depth but the drilling cost to provide sufficient confimation of grade and tonnage is ,at this time not an immediate concern. There is a budget for this summer funded through a $5 million dollar flow through offering that will be spent to prvide targets for definition drilling at a later date. Whether the best targets are at depth or along strike (the Flow Dome) is yet to be determined, but to my mind this is nice problem to have..
