RE:RE:DEEP DOWN EXTENSION question for RetiredGeoWith the exception of Keats West no one is going to open pit these narrow vein deposits further than the excavator arm can reach. There is just too much waste rock for open pit mining. Most of what they are finding has to be exploited by underground means and yes they do have the widths and the grades for a very profitable underground mine(s) like Fosterville.
Snowline's Valley deposit will be a giant open pit gold mine.
