Message: HQ vs. NQ drilling

Can someone clarify, whether the only reason for GNH to do NQ drilling (4.8 kg/m) instead of HQ drilling (8.4 kg/m) is the reduced cost of drilling ?

Because it is known that HQ core is more adequate to give a representative grade estimate in a ´nuggety style´deposit.

Of course, bulk sampling is the best alternative for grade estimations in nuggety style deposits, which we are doing large scale now.

Apart from surface bulk sampling, a decline with underground bulk sampling would do wonders for grade and size estimation of the Timmins/Ascot/88 zone.

But that most likely is wishful thinking on my behalf and most probably 1-2 years off, if ever considered ?
