AGP 2023 PIT SHELL - geology is majority peridotite
- extraction projection programs provide
simulated projection recoveries
based on ore type geology
What would happen if one recharacterizes the geology ? ( 2017 ) Make majority peridotite
Pass off to extraction firm that can't handle silicates
And.... decides to use courser grind that prevents less liberation of metals
AGP's rendition of, 2023 pit shell
elevation is slightly different than, 2015's pitshell and surface elevation
Peridotite = Violet
Clinopyroxine = peach pink versus (
johnson's image shows massive clino in orange )
2016 Johnson Hole - elevation differs with AGP's
- ore characterization is radically different
SUM ?
Changing ore characterization to majority Peridotite
Test gabbs and sulphides later
= removes the
gabbs, sulphides, massive clino from AGP's 2023 pitshells = extraction only caters to silicates with extraction that is not suited
Versus
Measure Sulphide Gabbs = tonnage
Measure Peridotire ( dunite ) tonnage
Based on AGP's pitshell and ore characterization
Sulphides, Gabbs, and massive Clinopyroine ore are not seen.
= lot of high grade tonnage + exotics which coinside with sulphides.
Tis interesting, eh ?
Cheers...
