I use Marathons V Lake 3 open pit statistics as derived from the 2022 FS.
From such information , I computed contained volumes of ore within each pit using FS stated dimensions times SG = 2.84 tons per cu meters.
Knowing the ore volumes within each pit and their contained ounces within all categories ( every ounce in the pit ie no cutoff = uncut ), I computed their uncut grade in grams per ton .
Knowing the number of meters drilled within all pits combined ( 429,000 meters ) I computed the average number of tons drilled per meter drilled in the V Lake FS ( 2250 m / 429,000 = 5250 tons per meter drilled ).
These statistics and their derivation are shown in the first Table below and the last row of the second table .
In the second table, I use the average tonnage drilled per meter drilled from V Lake FS ( 5250 tons / meter ) to estimate the tonnage drilled in each of the selected discoveries based on reported meters drilled in each discovery.
These data are from the 2024 FS along with the average uncut grades in each of those discoveries including ALL BLANKS .
From such statistics, elementary computations enable the estimation of ounces of contained gold within each QWN discovery.
All of these mining statistics used as input parameters are very hard ..... ie highly sampled and independently reported .
Combined, these integrated calculations arrive at 25 million ounces contained within only a portion of the drilled strike of QWN , above 300 meters . I view these estimates, within 1 sigma standard deviation ( approx + - 5000 ounces ) , to be easily defensible against critical review .
Based on my alternative analyses, I arrive at the same conclusion that QWN above 300 m contains at least 20 million ounces of gold FFS, find yourself a competent geologist to challenge this estimates .......its your money
