You are correct,

"The ignimbrite/block ash tuff formation contains SIGNIFICANT primary chalcopyrite WITH visible copper mineralization in hole KM0227D"

Question: why did they need to continue the sentence "with visible copper mineralization in hole KM0227D", in fact why say "SIGNIFICANT primary chalcopyrite"

WITH is a funny word, can mean "accompanied by" or "characterised by".

Seems everyone has read "characterised by", maybe they meant accompanied by!!!


Anyway, It did however also say this:

"This hole was located close to three distinct copper outcroppings at surface and directly targeted the large IP anomaly at depth"

Outcropping indicates leached and oxide zones, so we have an Leached and oxide zone and a primary zone, why would you assume the lack of a supergene zone when they show you a core pic tagged simply as visible copper minerals with black stuff in it.

Only black copper mineral I can think of is chalcocite!

I just saw the tag visual copper mineralisation in core, saw the black stuff and went "oh yeah Chalcocite from the supergene zone, of coarse thats the bit I would show.

Anyway who cares SIGNIFICANT PRIMARY CHALCOPYRITE will produce a magnificent cu % on its own!!!
