Jay Taylor on Maudore - August 7 2009
Please see the attached file for Jay Taylors thoughts on Maudores
most recent drilling results.
Below is an extract:
The current 524,000 ounces is derived from a relatively small area
that measures 400 meters along strike and only 200 meters deep.
We
have known that the potential for depth extension is excellent on this
property, as is the case with most other gold deposits located in the
Abitibi Greenstone Belt.
But the big news now emerging from Maudore is
that additional exploration work is suggesting that the potential to
expand the deposit laterally is very great.
And if you take both
lateral and vertical potential into account, you begin to realize the
numbers here could get very, very big.
Lets consider the vertical potential first.
In the 400-meter-long by
200-meter-deep space in which the companys current 524,000 ounces
have been outlined, several deeper drill holes have revealed the
extension of gold mineralization at depth.
The deepest hole to date
extended to 865 meters and intersected 2.46 oz.
per ton.
If the
current average grade of approximately 0.65 oz.
per ton is extended to
a depth of 865 meters over a lateral extension of just 400 meters over
the same width, we could be looking at over 2.5 million or 2.6 million
ounces of gold.
Now lets consider the lateral potential.
Based on continued drilling,
the lateral extent along strike appears to be approximately 2
kilometers or 5 times the 400-meter-long section from which the
existing 43-101 resource has been calculated.
Putting your elementary
mathematics to work, if grades are continuous to a depth 865 meters
over the same widths and if those values extend over 2 kilometers
rather than the 400 meters from which a current resource is
calculated, we could be looking at upward to 12.5 million ounces of
high-grade gold material to relatively shallow depths.
Now please understand we are making no assertions that Maudores
Comtois Property contains 12.5 million ounces of high-grade material.
But neither are we suggesting it does not have that much value.
What
we are saying is that the latest drill results, which are pictured in
the following chart, increase the odds that a very large, high-grade,
near-surface gold deposit is in the making.
