RE:RE:Excellon Resources Intersects 1,170 G/T Silver Equivalent OvJcw604, LOL, if Exn starts reporting such high grade results in hundreds of meters, then we are really back in business and we all will be millionaires.
First, consider the cost of drilling. Nowadays if you own your own drills and have the qualified company drillers the cost is roughly around $200 Cad per a meter of drilling; if you hire outside contractors the the cost doubles to $400.
What you see in the press release are the selected, good hits only, but not the lenght of the drill hole. One way to guestimate how many meters of drilling is if we know how much money Exn spent on driling at Platosa and over what period of time.
