About that river

Funny but I've must have looked at that drill map a dozen times but never saw that river. It follows the trend of the deposit and it's basically right on top. Westward the damn thing even bends to the south just like the deposit does but dramatically forks at line 90. Is the river an issue? I hate to give the idiot any credit but offiswhore does raise an important issue. If Cote Lake is suppose to be an open pittable deposit, what the heck do you do with that river? Looks like the river is part of the drainage system that connects Cote Lake to the east to Clam Lake to the northwest and Chester Lake to the south. On page 19 of the following link there is an inset of a regional map showing the drainage pattern.

It's just a river what's the big issue? They re-direct it or drain itand you're good to go. Besides, the real "meat" of the open pit so faris south of the river so I personally don't think it's a big dealhonestly. Heck Osisko moved an entire town for their deposit, a smallriver isn't even worth thinking about IMO.And as far as OfficeWhore goes, he is a lying ...more

With this much money involved do you really think a river is going to stop things?Lakes and rivers can be drained and rerouted.  End of story.imho
Comment by beachman on Mar 11, 2011 2:03am
Impossible to drain a river and re-routing would cost a fortune wouldn't it?   How would you ever get a permit to drain a lake or re-route a river?   I honestly don't know the answers to this.  Is it environmentally feasibile and what would it do to costs?   Rivers and lakes can be huge pains in the arse when it comes to permitting and costs. Has anyone ...more

Beachman WTF?  Know when to fold them.............Are you even considering?

Looks who's talkin about rivers now!Beach has been berating digger for using the phrase river of gold (which is justified), but now Beach is using the same type of phrase describing his all of a sudden concerns about the river and lake. Too much! Laughable really, as he knows as well as I, that Cote Lake is more a puddle than anything else, and the river is a ...more

beachman, i think if you read the report you will see some hints as to what they will look to do to get around the river issue. You have only to look at the diamond mines up north to see what can be done to create an open pit mine in the middle of a body of water.
Comment by Timminsgold on Mar 13, 2011 12:19pm
I am also surprised that you are bantering "4 million ounces and counting". With yor "vast knowledge" perhaps you can enlighten us as to what mining companies can profitably mine a cut grade of less than 1 gram per ton, without having established  a huge multi million proven resource.Perhaps you can also provide some estimated fully loaded mining and production costs ...more

Another Detour mine in the works I would think..........
Comment by offshoreskeis on Mar 13, 2011 3:20pm
"Cote Lake is more a puddle than anything else, and the river is a creek with surrounding marshy area, which is little more than a few feet deep. "Total utter nonsense. Lakes of this size in the Northern Shield with the same surrounding topography go 30 to more feet deep with tributaries up to 100 meters across in some areas like here bottoming out well over the the 10 ...more

OffshoreskiesHave you had an opportunity to review the RBC Capital analyst report? I'd be interested in your interpretation of their findings.Rocck

Hey Timminsgold...You bring up some very valid points...all of which will be addressed as this discovery moves forward.I will leave it up to the team of experts that will be called upon at various stages, namely, Scoping Study...Pre-Feasibility Study...Final Feasibility Study.   The market will act accordingly at each stage!Until then...drill...drill and drill somemore!As Tony Makuch ...more
