TRIKEN ( good stuff )Triken,, I've found so much new information..
I don't even know where to even begin...lol
My hunch was right, lime carbonates benieth the gabbro's also
have high grade.
Dependent on initial extraction test, met tests, and if lime carbonates
are discarded,
much high grade would port to waste.
There's a difference between
carb minerals and oxide when extracting minerals.
If extraction only seeks oxides in initials phase, carbs could be discarded.
Years ago... they tested the carb limes - found it contained high grade if in
vicinity of, gabbs, clino, sulphides.
Quarts also has the sulphides and is coinded, gabbro...lol.
Another report - speaks about clay sediment are also mineralized.
Another comment stated they panned surrounding area of wellgreen
testing the clay sediments - lots of oxide metals, plats, gold, nickel.
Historical Report Hudson didn't know the main mine deposit went much deeper, thicker.
They liked the 100m - 200m drill holes.
Didn't drill deeper.
Wasn't till later... others drilled and discovered the deposit
had much more than initially anticipated.
GT met studies worked on peridotite. (
600+ kg's )
Finer grind was the ticket to better recoveries.
Common sense when dealing with silicate minerals.
( 2015 PEA )
2014 / 2015 rolls round Junior decides to repeat the peridotite met studies using XPS
XPS, used a
courser grind. Need i say more. ( 2015 PEA )
Which reminds me... I could not open the 2015 PEA NCP link...
Window just spun.
I had to track down another source.
Which thankfully did open.
Look at the Johnson drill holes. Was stated the stellar holes were drilled @ Far East Zone.
Article, Press, Images all say, 756m hole = Far East Zone. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53269123979_af3abae7c1_c.jpg 2015 PEA PLACES 756m HOLE HERE in the main east zone south towards main mine.
If accurate, it would be a
significant discovery might redefine the main underground mine area. Current pit model... is only 120m deep....ffs
Added orange print
to help viewers locate hole.
Compare with drill hole image above. Here's another anomally... Data entry error on NCP's part or....Engineering firm ?
If the data was used in second chart by engineering firm,
versus 1st chart.... it might rewrite 2015's PEA which inturn
might have a chain effect on, 2023 PFS based on, initial error
carried forward through the years ?
Here's the 2015 PEA link.
I myself, downloaded it.
Since the main 2015 PEA link appears broken.
I found this 2015 with Yukon Province files.
Wellgreen is endowed with minerals.
The issues revolve around... - lab assays
- which met study it recieves
- which ore is biasly preferred
- how it's modelled for open pit or underground
- what data is included not included
- upper hole vs lower hole
- some holes were only 100+ meters.... open below still more
which skews the preception.... if only sifting data.
- redefining zone names
- how deposit is carved / blocked
If....GT performed MET studies on the peridotite and found
a finer grind allowed better extraction and could be incorporated
with other ore minerology,,then, all ores coild be mined together.
Ore separator - sorter
Two extraction model plants under one roof,
Once peridotites are processed they move on to blending with
other ore.
CO2 carbonic extraction looks like a good format.
Not hard to send off some ores for quick tests.
Cheers....
