Reconnaissance drilling on the JBPFor a second pass reconnaissance drill programme the results would thrill most gold exploration companies. There is lots of gold in the JBP system. It is now a hunt to find which splay faults the gold is hiding in.
NSV = No significant values
I'm guessing that there is very little outcrop in this area and everything is buried under till and swamp. That makes finding targets that are only a few metres wide a challenge. Many of the 51 holes were NSV duds but still they provide data on structure and where the gold veins/shear zones are not. This is the first time that I have heard them refer to "shear zones".
