Cantex’s narrow veins deposit
There were drill intercepts that returned variable grades with some returned zero hits. The narrow widths deposit is hosted by thin sheets of Zn/Pb/Ag ore. It appears recovery is uneconomic as stated by Management in its latest April 30th financial report.
To wit:
"...The grade of narrow vein deposits can be highly variable along strike and down dip. Some sections of the vein may contain high-grade ore shoots where concentrations are economically viable, while others may have lower grades or even barren zones. Due to their challenges, these deposits often prove uneconomic to mine ...and are often left unmined. Open-pit mining generates significant waste and uneconomic strip ratios, while selective underground methods require costly infrastructure that quickly erode project returns."
