I just thougth I would use my handy dandy noront resource calculator to see what percent PGE's and Copper we have in the deposit. It looks like 10% comes from Platinum 11% from Palladium and 11% from Copper.This is $$ not volume.
i thought I would show what a hit to 2500m would look like.. Thats if it does not get any wider on the way down..
