[QUOTE="loamer, post: 45626, member: 981"] [b]Leads terminology.[/b] Had a question asked about continued references to 'leads' - as in deep leads etc. A question was asked, " How deep is a deep lead?" Good question - short answer I always used was - if its too deep to detect, then its a deep lead. That's a bit flippant so I did some research and here are the results. (These are applicable to Victoria, but some references are made to WA. The chief source is Mr Frank Canavan MSc, from the old Victorian Dept of Industry, Technology and Resources. (Frank is no-longer with us and was wizz). His book - Deep Lead Gold Deposits of Victoria 1988 is highly recommended. Hope this helps.
