Now you will have to stick with me on this one as I may go here and there. But i will just start by saying the holes show on Pic 47 http://norontresources.com/find/id/47 either are not 49 and 49A or they are not reporting what they found.. My theory also relies on the fact that the drawings they are showing us are mostly the same angle and are representing the blobs properly.
1) You will notice as I have said beofre on drawing 47 it shows 2 drills down around 1400m. While I was on the phone with wes he said that was 49 and 49A. they were reported on in the last NR.
NOT-09-049 EXT Abandoned hole – excessive deviation
NOT-09-049W1 791.1 979.5 188.4 1.67 1.30 1.13 4.24 0.22Now if you look at
Now using excesive deviation is a bit weird considering that that extension hole was designed for down hole geophysics not nesesarely hitting Ni directly.
2) Now stay with me. If you look at where hole 49 ended and what is below it you would think by drilling down they would hit something. Take a look at this and see what is below hole 49.And 49 is deep into the mineralization blob indicated by pink. http://norontresources.com/find/id/38
http://norontresources.com/find/id/45
Also if you look at the angle of 49 it would indicate that it would follow mineralization pretty easy. Now keep in mind I know its hard to drill i am just throwing some things out there.
3) Now if you look at 48 again and look where it exits that blob that is at 1000m if you look at 38 and 45 you would see a way different exit point at 1000m on those blobs.
4) 49a was a wedge as well. So it was not designed to go straight down it was to wedge off. So it would not make it straight down like it shows to 1400m.
All that being said those 2 holes i dont think are 49 and 49a . We have nothing on drawing that state they are. Just what Wes said. There is no info on holes 49 and 49a below 1000m. I find it hard to believe that there is 2 drills at 1400m and nothing to report on either of them. Once again I relaize drills dont alwasy find things or could be off just a little. Just putting out a little food for thought. There may also be alot I have overlooked just thinking outlloud.. Any takers???? :) TTY
