The proposed wedge drilling will not give us any information on the 60m gap between the intersections in holes 9 & 11, but the multiple intersections around hole 9 should confirm the actual strike and dip of the vein / structure. This may lend support for the continuity of Castor Reef between the holes.
At the end of the day, exploration geology is "underground fortune-telling" and I can see as far into those rocks as you can.
Remember, 600+ metres is a long way down and detailed structural drillouts at this depth would be prohibitively expensive.
For my money it would be better to locate and define the structures nearer the surface and then chase them deeper. SOC on the other hand, seem to be more interested in producing spectacular intersections rather than good solid exploration. We used to call these sort of holes "Directors Specials"
