the drilling surrounding commstock pit will be interesting. it was last drilled in the 80s, entirley with rc rigs andonly very shallow drilling. The company estimated a 200,000oz open pit resource from their efforts at an avaerage grade of 3 - 4 grams per tonne.

The interesting part is the company was panning out the rc chips prior to assay and reporting visible gold in many of the holes but this was not reflected in the fire assays Basically 3 - 10ppm Au range assays for intervals containing panable gold. In the conclusion the company remarks about the assays being inconsistent with observations and there being a lack of confidence which would require further follow up work.
