[QUOTE="Goldtalk Leonora, post: 562861, member: 5638"] My opinion/assessment (for what it's worth) is "maybe". Although the general geology runs NNW/SSE in WA in reality on the micro level it can run in any direction. Also, remember erosion......we have had 10km above us wearing down over the last 2.5 billion years or so and what is to say a lump of qtz the size of an aircraft carrier hasn't decided to stop right there? I have often found so called reefs that are actually big lumps of qtz that are disintegrating over time and spreading out in a line.....I call them pull ups...don't know why...just what I call them. I wouldn't worry too much about using a geo map....they are constructed by people and often incorrect. Walk out of strike for several hundred metres and see if it continues. Ultimately, I assume you want to know if it carries?? Sample...sample and more sampling....if the ground is yours OR you can gain control of it...otherwise your just wasting your time. [/QUOTE]
