| Deposit | "By applying a cutoff grade of 0.042% eq.U, Klingmuller (1989) states that 85% of ore intercepts in a part of Pathfinders 6,900 Trend (or Phase (II) are 0.6 m or less in thickness, and that 25% of these intercepts contain 1% eq.U or more." (Dahlkamp, 2010, p. 185). But what Klingmuller actually said (p. 182): "Characteristically the mineralization is thin (less than 0.6m [two feet]) and relatively high grade. Using a 0.05% radiometric cutoff, 85% of a part of Pathfinder's 6,900 trend, intercepts are two feet or less thick. For these same intercepts, 25% contain 1.0% or better radiometric U308." |
