City, yes, or very confident of the volume of ore found in that one core. If it runs from surface as suggested in the diagrams it's 16m drill width by 180m at a combined 10% lead equivalent approx. I wonder how wide it is in the other dimension?

I think this paragraph adds a little juice as well Though not a new lode.

"BWDD010 intersected 27m at 1.7% Pb and 142g/t Ag from 80m, and 21m at 7.9% Pb, 3.38% Zn, 120g/t Ag from124m and 9m at 14.38% Pb, 16.73% Zn and 344g/t Ag from 146m (Figure 8). The hole was drilled to the northnorthwestto check rock strength/faults in the southeast wall of the planned China starter pit. Some very old minedstopes, developed by Chinese artisanal miners, were intersected and some of the material that may be remnantmaterial on stope margins assayed at some truly amazing grades; for example, 121.2-121.7m assayed 15.4% Pb,1.3% Zn, 4.6% Cu and 4,272g/t or 137 ounces per tonne Ag; and from 151.0-151.5m assayed 35% Pb, 32% Zn and1,183g/t or 38 ounces per tonne Ag."

So a combined 31% Zinc and lead, plus there is enough Silver in that section to probably pay for the mining and processing of the ore. The 21 metre section isn't a slouch either.

Expand

from what i remember (don't have a mining background) 20g of Ag = 1% Zn Eq. So 344g Ag + 31% zinc eq. = really exciting mining grades
