RE:RE:Re Re Interpretation of Drill ResultsAgreed - you both make strong points. So if I understand NXE's "unique" ( as described by either Ainsweorth or Cuyler in an NR I can no longer find ) diamond drill exploration method they are drilling down the dip of the ore - in other words parallel to or sub-parallel to the dip of the ore. Difficult to make accurate ore outlines and hence accurate tonnage calcs with any kind of deviation at those hole lengths. IMHO
I think that it was Shadeson who commented sometime ago on the contradicton between two holes - one using the "unique" system drilling sub-parallel to the ore zone dip and the other a "scissors hole" that intersected across the ore zone, both depicted on the long section to be within metres of each other but the true width determined by both holes was very divergent.
In my opinion this is poor practice especially if they are not accurately surveying each hole and there are not enough "scissors" holes being drilled. If I remember correctly RPA recommended more "scissors" holes.
Surprising that more people haven't picked up on this risk.
