Exploration and Mining History

A 9.3 kg sample taken from diamond drill hole CC-14, processed by caustic fusion, contained a total of 95 diamonds including 4 macrodiamonds (greater than 0.5mm in two dimensions). The largest diamond recovered was a 2.64 mg white, polytetrahedroid measuring 1.36 mm x 1.20 mm x 1.12 mm. The diamond-bearing sample was taken from a 4.15 m interval (between 32.45 m and 36.60 m) within a 61.0 m intersection of a lamprophyre and mafic, heteroloithic breccia zone.
