I Lots

The Kalgoorlie mine in Western Australia is one of the richest square miles on earth..

See the pit pictures here ..This is what our Golden Mile will eventually look like..

During the past 100 years this goldfield has produced over 1000 tonnes of precious metal, and not for nothing has it been recognized as the richest square mile on earth. In terms of output the "Golden Mile" ranks second only the vastly more extensive Rand Goldfields of South Africa, and Canada's Porcupine mine.

SO The Porcupine mine is richer and that is just up the street from us in Timmons,Ont.

So hang on to your shares..

I don't think the minerology is the same but there are some similarities..

Gold occurs in significant amounts in three main types of deposits: veins of hydrothermal and related origin; in consolidated placer deposits, and in unconsolidated placer deposits. It may also occur in granitic pegmatites, in contact metamorphic deposits, and in hypo-thermal deposits. It is commonly found as disseminated grains in Quartz veins with Pyrite and other sulphides, or as rounded grains, flakes or nuggets in placer deposits and in streams and rivers. Gold is often panned from such deposits by taking advantage of its high density to wash away the lighter sediments from a pan or sluice.

I haven't got to doing a comparison between the two...Don't care..Gold is gold..and both have lots of it..

Just a tip with these mining maps..and Google..

They work better and a heck of a lot faster with Firefox..
