The JORC 2012 Mineral Resource Estimates (MREs) for the Silver Spur, Twin Hills, and Mt Gunyan deposits total an aggregate of 19.5 Moz AgEq at 54 g/t AgEq.
Reference ASX Announcement of 1 March 2022 Thomson Resources Ltd. – “19.5 Moz Silver Equivalent Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate for the Texas Silver District.”
The majority of holes and meterage are from open hole percussion drilling, which may impact sample quality. Assay methods used include aqua regia digest with AA or ICP finish, which, while potentially partial, may be appropriate for heap leaching.
Both models use a 20g/t Ag grade threshold for interpretation, though a high-grade domain at 40g/t Ag may have been used in 2016. The threshold being close to the cut-off grade may be inappropriate.
2016 - "Some 200 meters vertically from surface" 2022 - "Extending to 150 meters depth" but also mentions a "200 meters depth limit below surface," which is ambiguous.
