Depth, length, width...it all plays a roll in one way or another.
But if it´s cheaper to drill 3 holes to 333m than 1 hole to 1000m and I have a better chance to define a bigger surface footprint of mineralization with 3 holes rather than 1, I would certainly go for 3 x 333m.
And because we seem to find gold everywhere, where we sink the drill rod, I would support the company´s strategy to drill more shallow holes than fewer deep holes and define a larger mineralized surface footprint much quicker !
