Drilling the Armpit

Cassidy's Nov 25/04 news release is the first one that appears to give results to show that the vein trend on which it has done the most drilling is not merely a slender wisp of gold bearing quartz vein. The angle between shears is like an arm body junction, hence the lead in.

 

Among structural geologists it is a universally accepted precept that when rocks fracture, the orientation of the fracture to the stress direction is on a 60 degree angle.  The importance of shears is that they provide both the pathways and the "room" for mineralizing solutions to deposit the desired minerals.  The diagram below is a crude drawing of the relationship indicated by the drilling of holes KD-18, KD-92 and KD-93. Hole 18 appears to have drilled the main zone. The other holes drilled shears. These are shown to have the 60 degree orientation vertically but probably may be more like a flower petal downwards, as if growing out from the main trend zone.  The geometry is important but I will leave all arguments about the orientation to Cassidy's scientists. They will figure it out.

 

THE IMPORTANT THING IS .... TA DA  !! :

CASSIDY NOW HAS PROOF THAT THE SYSTEM THEY ARE

DEALING WITH HAD THE POWER TO EMPLACE GOLD

MINERALIZATION FAR FROM THE MAIN SHEAR ZONE. THE FUTURE MINE PLAN WILL NOT DEPEND ON A THIN RIBBON OF ROCK. NOW IT IS CONFIRMED THERE IS A WIDER ZONE OF MINERAL. THIS IMPROVES THE ECONOMICS, WITH MORE PAY DIRT AVAILABLE TO COVER THE EXPENSE OF DIGGING DOWN TO IT.  IT ALSO LESSENS THE FEAR THAT THE  HIGH GRADE DISCOVERY ZONE  COULD TURN INTO AN ELUSIVE

"WILL O' THE WISP".

 


YAHOO!! WHOOPEE! AND OTHER CALGARIAN SCIENTIFIC EXPRESSIONS!
