[QUOTE="Geepeezee7, post: 663164, member: 23915"] [I]"However, reefs have to be exposed at surface to shed eluvial gold"[/I] 1) Is there anyway to delineate exposed auriferous reefs on maps vs buried auriferous reefs? 2) In Geovic the layer "Geological lines and faults" does show "AURIFEROUS QUARTZ WORKED" as the "type" for such reefs however how to know if they were exposed at the surface? Would it be a matter of reading the Geological reports and/or mine reports for associated reefs? Or is there an easier/quicker way? As the way I describe above would have to be done reef by reef :/ 3) Also, geovic shows reefs as "QUARTZ WORKED"? Why is it worked if its not auriferous? Or does a "QUARTZ WORKED" reef mean the old timers looked for gold but it wasnt there? Does "QUARTZ WORKED" definitely mean its not auriferous? Essentially, trying to delineate "AURIFEROUS QUARTZ WORKED" (exposed) reefs using the maps and data we have at our disposal. Wondering what would be the best way to go about that. Any ideas goldierocks? :D [/QUOTE]
