RE:300 meters laterally between FDV high Grade HitsHey GeoD,
I saw the red do in the FDV green circle where I presume you assigned the value of 67 grams (gpt), but there was no id number for that dot. The other dot, to the left side of the page, dot AZ 13-156 has the max grade of 469 gpt. The hits are about 300 m from each other. Also noted was the 468gpt hit is located outside the sedimenet zone (recognizing that the diagram may not be accurate enough, and mother nature does not draw nice-and-neat boundary). So, I would agree with your conclusion that the picture is encouraging...i.e.,more gold than the FDV discovery. There is another point to the right of FDV, about 100m to the right, hole AZ15-034 (within the sediment zone) has a short intercept of 66.7gpt which is high enough grade (but it was given the wrong colour, blue instead of red. If one keeps on going then there is also AZ13-131 which has a grade of 51 gpt (red dot, some 100m above the sediment zone). Another observation was, the Indicated resource zone (bold black border) seems to include the 7m below the FDV (has the digging reached that pocket yet?).
Western Front: MikeyMike at ceo.ca made some rematks about some high grade (greater than 100 gpt) have not been included in the highlights around hole WFN-29 (previous NR). It looks like only WFN-063 (this NR) is included. I have gone thorugh the table of results but could not find many (going blind?, lol), except hole WFN-045 which had a short intercept @100.3gpt at 154m down hole (Figure 2 did not include this high-grade intercept for WFN-045...see Table 1). This is an interesting hole. It's a long one (180m total length) and appeared to have been designed to test the grade at depth. The dip is -30 degrees hence it's in the same bunch with WFN-030 and -039 (where are the results for WFN-039?...Table 2 says, results received).
Hole WFN-045 is sitting below the sediment layer.
So perhaps, the interaction with the sediment layer would result in mega puking out of Au, but outside of that layer, especially below it where the Au source is expected to reside, it would be reasonable to expect high-grade encounter, may be not boulder typed, but enough coarse stuff in the range of 50-100 gpt, just like what they have found in the Swan zone in Fosterville. If the tonnage is large (50m shear zone x 500 m strike x 500 depth = 32 M tonnes) for one of the 4 shear zones would yield quite a bit of Au.
The math: 50 x500 x 500 x 2.6 x 30gpt (just like Fostervile)/31 = 32 MozAu approx. Scale this up and down to suit your taste.

It looks like a lot more gold will come from FDV area.
