Retired Geo

It is very disengenuos to compare NFG to the low grade Snowline. You should be ashamed for even implying such a ridiculous suggestion. Sorry,  it makes me question your knowledge. 

Does he actually believe his own comments? Can he possibly believe that Snowline with its low grades, will not have 5 to 10 times more waste rock than NFG's with its mostly wide veined and high grade drill intercepts?

RE:RE:DEEP DOWN EXTENSION question for RetiredGeo
With the exception of Keats West no one is going to open pit these narrow vein deposits further than the excavator arm can reach. There is just too much waste rock for open pit mining. Most of what they are finding has to be exploited by underground means and yes they do have the widths and the grades for a very profitable underground mine(s) like Fosterville.

Snowline's Valley deposit will be a giant open pit gold mine."


The GGG believes it's better to believe Eric Sprott and Quinton Hennigh on this matter.

I have never come across any reference to ES or QH advocating an open pit mine at Queensway outside of Keats West which is a special case.  Can you provide any such reference? Throughout the world narrow vein deposits are never open pitted to depth unless they exist in tight swarms.  They are open pitted only at surface.  Do you have any examples to the contrary?  I can give ...more

The Greek Gold Guy is the mirror image of all the Buccos, just regurgitating already posted info. A waste of time commenting on anything he has to say, unfortunately. if he does not like what Retiredgeo has to say, then he should just ignore him. That is what I will now do to the GGG.  Keep up your comments and analysis Retiredgeo.
Comment by Dixiedee on Jul 05, 2023 5:39pm
Both retiregeo and GGG have made good contributions to this board everyone isn't going to agree all the time but comparing him to Bucc is a little harsh I can only think of one poster on this board that would fit that bill and it's not GGG

RetiredGoe has a history of posting nonsense and trying to undermine the signifigance of the incredible success of NFG's exploration. RetriredGeo has said  NFG uses Wildcat  drilling or Blind drilling and  how m,any times does he call NFG's intercepts as narrow veined or Spider veins? So now his new negative word is waste rock this and waste raock that. LOL Now he compares ...more

He is only stating his opinion. And I know for a fact he is a NFG shareholder. And I also know he worked as a geologist for years. Do you know if QH or ES have a degree in mining or geology? Retiredgeo does and so do I. All he was doing was pointing out the difference in the two types of deposits which obviously you have difficulty understanding. Have you ever analyzed core samples? He did for ...more

I have taken your advice and put GGG back on ignore.  Enough is enough!
Comment by Retiredgeo on Jul 05, 2023 7:14pm
QH has his PhD in geology.   I wouldn't compare us to him! ES has a bachelors degree in business.  I'm sure he would get an honorary PhD in geology if he wanted one.
Comment by Retiredgeo on Jul 05, 2023 6:27pm
Wildcat drilling/blind drilling/grid drilling are all versions of the same thing.  You are plunking down a hole with no known target and hoping for the best.  All of those evenly spaced holes on the map are grid holes.  Many of the holes scattered about the Queensway property were blind holes testing a theory.  I never said that they have employed wildcat drilling but they will ...more

  It's funny that Rediredgeo feels he can promote Snowline on other boards like the NFG board but when I told guys to buy Fathom Nickel below 10 cents he lost his mind and put me on ignore. Now he has GGG on ignore. Anyone who disagrees with him he puts them on ignore. Lol. Too funny for words. I'll go back and play in my FNI sandbox and double or triple my money again before ...more

Hello MC: I have recently taken everyone off ignore.  I have never recommended that anyone buy SGD.  I can compare geological deposits as I see fit and have been comparing NFG and SGD since the great debate of the fall of 2022.  I did object to you polluting the SGD board with your endless pumping of your Fathom Nickel investment.  Enough was enough! I am more than happy to ...more  
Comment by megacopper on Jul 05, 2023 9:17pm
  Quinton Hennigh and other respectable base metal geologists would disagree with you on Fathom Nickel. So it's fine for you to bash other stocks on the NFG board and mention SGD as you see fit but nobody else can do it. Ok thanks for the clarification on the rules of engagement. Lol By the way how is that Core Assets investment working out for you. Nick hit anything up there in the ...more
