RE:OK, the real volume of the LP fault strike.captainpooby wrote: OK, what I did was print out this graphic from BBR's website. Then I drew 3D volume blocks over the strike.
Using vernier calipers, I measured the blocks and determined their volume relative to the 500 meter key in the lower right. Blocks A,B,C, D and F measured out to a total volume of 69,315,625 cubic meters.
69,315,625 x 2.91/31= 6,506,724 @ 1g/t Au
Block G was a guess because there are no drill results there yet. I made it half as deep the other strikes and total volume for block G was 36,093,750 cubic meters.
36,093,750 x 2.91/31= 3,338,155
This is a photoshop represntation of the method I used.
Just a repost because it seemed to not get much attention the first time around. I believe it to be a fairly accurate representation of the volume of the LP Fault gold zone and using 1g/ton is a reasonable low ball estimate of the possible gold in the ground there. Also, now that the gap zone has some actual drill results, zone "G" in my calculations is based more in reality now.
Make note of the fact that this does not include any of the hinge/limb zone gold. I believe there is at least a million or two ozs of gold there based on what they have drilled so far.
