RE:RE:Had a quick look at the ground WGO hasYou are certainly correct that many properties require a couple of different sets of eyes before the goodies are found. Not sure I agree that there was limited sampling programs on these properties. I suppose that statement requires a definition of "limited" to be agreed upon, but in my opinion and from what I remember most of these projects were well if not thoroughly covered by grid soil sampling completed by professional explorers, I think many if not most of the anomalies defined were trenched and from memory I think there were quite a few drill holes (rab, ddh rc) completed. Again, I don't think this means that the properties have no hope, I think it just means its going to get progressively tougher each time around.
For what its worth projects like Underworld/\White Gold and Kaminak/Coffee both went straight from discovery to ounces in the ground. I think this attests to both the quality of the exploration that has been conducted and my idea that it gets tougher if quality people have explored and dropped it.
