Direct to Mill Mining of M3 Vein and J Vein of HDI was surprised to hear Mac talk about the possibility of selective mining of high grade opportunitues offered by and within the HD Resource area .
The proposed HD mine area is fully cleared and during that process two very high grade veins were discovered .
They can be viewed in the Photos on the website or at this link...

Also, Richmont excavated a starter open pit with just one mining bench before discovering the much higher underground grades
This starter pit can also be viewed at the link above .
So, by excavating a second mining bench , that too provides an early mining opportunity before the full mine site is developed .
Those outcropping veins can easily be surgically mined via adits and trenching and excavating , directly taken to the Pine Cove Mill.
Typical grades would be in the 10- to 20 grams per ton , variable throughout the vein .
HD is now fully permitted, so they can pick and choose any early mining opportunities that they deem most profitable .
Those veins obviously.
FWIW..
