The amount of ounces is always relevant, I haven't looked in detail but can you show your work on the volumes of ore and waste using the existing Blaffo Guetto inferred resource? I went through the 01st August Inferred Resource announcement but couldn't find any pit volumes so I am assuming you might have calculated your own pit volumes of these two things:






Just wondering what the pit wall angles and dimensions are of your truncated cone (or elongated truncated cone) volumes are, those current wireframes look okay to me for some sort of arm-wavy unoptimized truncated cone shapes like above, bearing in mind that the strike lengths described are at surface. Remember when doing this that a good rule of thumb would be that the overall pit wall angle or slope in typical west african mining open pits can be anywhere from 45 degrees in crap ground to 65 degrees in the best ground. There is no shame in anyone attempting back-of-the-envelope calculations like this, as we don't all have access to mine pit design and open pit optimization software.

Anyway - this is all a bit academic in the context of this announcement, as there is gold being found outside the existing Inferred Resource area so they will need to drill more hole and find the dimensions and volumes of any additional ore zones and then design new optimized pits that suit the resource anyway. I additional ore is found in between the existing SW domain and the NE domain then its possible a third pit could go in there or join up to become one elongated pit if there is enough gold there.
