Here are some maps to scale show the Dante Reefs relative to the WMC drilling in the 2016 geological paper I referenced, TM1 tenement plan and the magnetic image.



At larger scale, the three holes from the paper in reference to TM1's tenements. I transposedTM1s magnetite reef magnetic trends onto the magnetic image form the paper at scale. Looks very clear to me that TMD002 (is drilled into Hypernion Reef, and TD5 (WMTD5) was drilled into the NW strike extension of Crius Reef... The reefs are enriched cumulate layers in a large mafic intrusion, forming parallel northwest-southeast stacked layers... they are expected to be laterally continuous sans faulting or later intrusions etc.

The 'Basal Layer' at 0m below from the paper is the Crius Mag reef, and the hyperion is at ~1100m stratigraphically higher (younging, or up, to the west).

Below is hole WMTD5 (Crius Reef) with 0.3% Cu and elevated PGE and sulphur etc.

below is WMTD5 in even more detail, showing the offset of Cu peak from Pd and Pt. This hole has 3m thickness of HG reef, although id RC holes are sampled overlapping the edge of true 3m thickness, then they will report 4m thickness. TM1s RC holes are an average of 3m thickness with same higher grades as WMTD5, with LG extending above...


The consistency of thickness and grades in cumulate reefs are both a boon and a burden. Very large strike and dip extent makes for large and predictable tonnage, and consistent grade. Unfortunately, the potential for bonanza grade shoots or pipes are low by virtue of geology, unlike say Cu-Ni cumulate massive sulphide deposits or disseminated chonolith Cu-Ni deposits like Nebo-Babel. There will be thicker/thinner, higher/lower grades in the reef but die is cast pretty much imo...
