GAP THEORYHere's another " overlay map " what i call the Gap Theory.
- one or two larger faults that strike to the north
- Deposit A to the north
- Deposit B to the south
Notice anything ?
-
deposit B has significant drills sunk in the - Takla Volcanics - deposit A has a mix going on - 1/2 vulcan + 1/2 pluton
Volcanics do have the quartz beccia at depth
with the copper and moly
Plutonics are the - heinz 57 igneous that most likely washed
in with the - heavy sediments.
DEPOIST - B
Step one hair off the main fault to the - right
and into the - plutons.
DEPOSIT - A
Step one hair off to the right... and...
could it be the Volcanics still exist ?
Chances are they do... look across to the right
and the formation continues.
Formation of volcanics below could be more apparent here.
Which is perhaps why... deposit A might have more success
if copper and moly are on opposite side of - main fault ( easterly )
BUT..... I would say there's a risk....
to the right from center main fault
is significant sediments.
If that main fault is deep...
it would PACK far more sediments.
resulting in - igneous duster drills.
IN BETWEEN DEPOSIT A + B =
GAP Labelled - GREEN CICLE - on map below
deposits are seaparated.
fault below most likely has - significant sediments
separating the deposits.
There's.... another larger GAP aside of the green circle
Far wider - open up to a broader area = packs more sediments.
River is also most likely a major fault.
Lots more sediments....then, water coursing atop.
Keeping clear of these - wider areas - would be smart.
Focusing on the - yellow dotted loines = tighter fault areas.
= LESS SEDIMENT = MORE VOLCANICS + QUARTZ
Image with overlay
Inset showing - drill hole grouping - geology drills are in most
Again... i myself... would drill the
Takla Volcanics - yellow lines Second Image -
showing the - GAP - be tween two deposits.
Self expanitory.
Yet... the visual representation - should show
white in the gap zone - and color brown under each deposit
maybe it's an older - image - from prior junior
it's the first thing i noticed when i pulled forward
the location on - google.
i said.... ther'es a gap between the two deposit.s
lots of sediments.
wid faults.
= risky drilling in between trying to connect the two.
= best to work westerly expnading the existing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lastly....
i would say the greatest ' impact " the junior could do is
stand on the historical laurels - and - recent drills.
2 drills in - pretty good intercepts.
but....if historical drills are avail -
i would perform a significant redo - historical and new drills.
ICP MS + AQUA REGIA ( ensure enough nitric + sulphuric
ALLOW MINERALS TO DIGEST - LONGER DURATION
ENSURE - LAB CAN HANDLE ( mineral pyroxins )
tetra bonding - minerals in solid solution - silicates
same issues with - nickel in silica solid solution - green ores.
ensure lab is - capable of detecting diff species of moly.
Most juniors who place more emphasis on - better assaying
seem to fair pretty good. Most show better results than historical.
What i'm seeing now ?
I don't know if equipt is worse or not... wink.
When reading many historical reports..
the grades on some deposits are - far richer.
New technologies at the lab - come onscene.
And... suddenly, the new drills or historicals aren't seeing
same or richer grades...
Hence - doubling down on - lab assaying - ensuring the lab
knows exactly what to look for - which mean... junior has to
have a sharp pencil - knwoing the mierology and what the minerals
could morph into - would be a big plus.
Whne one is speaking in terms of - 27,000,000 tonnes
with copper grading of - 0.3 % and Moly with - 0.015 %
and suddenly... the grades of both drop...
the compass should immediately point to assaying.
Shoring up - the historicals...
with better or matching copper and moly...
would set this stock back to normal.
Own opinion... not investment advice.
Could be cheaper than... new drilling.
Again.. .when i read the historicals...
70% of cores recieving - ICP MS + ACID
30 % of cores recieving - ICP only
Hello....
Then... fastforward 2020 / 2021....
Gold comes into play in the ores.
FIRE ASSAYING swings in.
And the thought of - Moly runs with lead ores.
And lab uses lead - as a flux for fire assaying.
There's goes the - Moly.
lol
I would strictly focus only on moly.
in order to know all moly - grades.
not dismissing other minerals - but keeping a one
focus assaying just on moly -
it's then... one will know more about the moly
using several kinds of testing.
pulling several ores forward from the cores -
- quartz mozonite
- lead
- pyrite
- red quartz
- brown quartz
- garnets
- any type of silvery metallic mineral
Test multiple diff ways.
Could be tetra bonding going on.
Ensure lab has right equipt to test for silicates in solid
solution - or that have morphed into - diff sepecies.
lab may not be set up for - diff species of - minerals.
it might only be hard wired to reconize - specific electrons etc...
and if in a bond - with lessor or more electrons or ions...
it could easily be missed or misconstrued as another mineral.
.
That's all i've got... for now. hit those cores again... do a second take.
i'm thinking there could be far more molly than meets the eye.
Especially if much of it was dismissed as red quartz or garnets.
Some reports mention - meterage of
red / brown quartz zones.
That to me sound like the quartz monzonite seen extreme heat
moly changed to - red... staining the quartz.
there's even
green and blue moly - too.
.
Cheers....
