It is one of our main zones but do these contiune twisting in a pattern?
I think it is just random myself but not the source.
It is just the vugs orienting themselves in a more fragile pattern than perhaps was
once shoreline or lake or whatever?
Good thing it is relatively recent in earths history other wise it would be so hard to
understand LOL IKE
Well there appears to be a pattern emerging on the Keats Zone although I'm not convinced of anything yet. Quinton Hennigh has pointed out if you drill enough holes a pattern begins to emerge. But it seems to me that there isn't any rhyme or reason to the orientation of these high grade veins. They zig zag all over the place through the fractures in the rock.
Just look at how different the Lotto Zone is compared to the Keats Zone. Doesn't appear to be any similarity to me. I could be wrong but it appears the patterns are totally random. That is why it is so difficult to drill these things. I think Greg Matheson and the NFG geologists have been drove off their heads trying to figure this thing out. The high grade chutes go in all sorts or crazy directions. And I think they will find this gold goes a lot further out from the main Appleton Fault then what they think. I know they have stated 500 meters either side of the fault but that could easily end up being 1000 meters or more in my opinion. Expect the unexpected with this thing. Everything is covered up in gravel and overburden. The only thing sticking out of the ground was the Dome and it took Al Keats years and years of prospecting to find that one. Good thing for us he didn't give up.
The Rock Doctor figures the Golden Joint is somehow connected to the Dome showing. He figures the Golden Joint high grade gold eventually comes to surface at the Dome Showing. He could be right about that but it is still to early to say. The Golden Joint is steeply dipping and that is perhaps the reason the drills haven't moved much at all in two months. I think they are struggling to figure that one out. Just my own opinion. They have got the Lotto and Keats figured out by the looks of it but we might have to bring in the Rock Doctor out of retirement to figure out the Golden Joint for us. Lol Oh my goodness I hope it doesn't come to that. They better have a good supply of black rum on site. Lol
