lar, i dont see how you can have a "sideways stack of pancakes" and not have a "bottom of the pan" configuration?? if you had feeder "scallops" or "stalagmites" you had to have something feeding them..one of the reasons i see it this way is because gold is heavy! gold should find its way down, not up. maybe i'm simple...either way i think the "rule of the drill" still takes front seat..
if you dont find what your looking for..drill deeper!
