In the meantime, I see some trying to work out copper values etc. in the pending assays for NDIBK04

The actual copper content in chalcopyrite is 34.6% - the rest is made up of Fe and S.
The actual copper content in bornite is 63.3% - the rest is also made up of Fe and S.

Put another ways:

For every 1% of chalcopyrite logged in a piece of core, that piece of core will have 0.346% Cu – or 3,460ppm Cu.

For every 1% of bornite logged in a piece of core, that piece of core will have 0.633% Cu – or 6,330ppm Cu.

So… for a piece of core with 2% combined chalcopyrite (1%) and bornite (1% - so assuming equal levels), that piece of core will have 0.979% Cu – or 9,790ppm Cu – let’s say 1%.

For a piece of core with 5% combined chalcopyrite (2.5%) and bornite (2.5%), that piece of core will have 2.4475% Cu – 24,475 ppm Cu – let’s say 2.5%.

So… combined chalcopyrite and bornite %’s (assuming equal levels) equates to just under half that in copper %’s.

C+B% of 2 = 1% Cu.

C+B% of 5 = 2.5% Cu.

C+B% of 10 = 5% Cu.

You get the drift…

With average Cu grades of Tier-1 copper mines being between 0.4% and 0.5% Cu you only need to see about 1% B+C.

Also, keep in mind the numbers we have to date are off PXRF (portable xrf readers) they only measure the mineral content in a tiny spot on the surface of the core. The assays are going to start painting the real picture.

PS The Aussie tenements are not a distraction, they are every bit as important as Peru. To some of us more important.

PPS One days driving closer to the Alice. Time for a beer.

Kalenn.
Compelling figures regards copper grades and as please don't mention the thought of Au as hinted by speakers from GA/NTGS. Why because it would make Lfc786 backyard into a super pit on the shear thought he has nuggets there also. As stated by his assumption even his backyard has porphyry in it.
The unfolding at Alice which you will be present for could be an amazing unveiling of a complete new mining area of central Australia with much mineral wealth for the country moving forward.
