Brilliant work
@Fitz65 - and thanks awfully for sharing.
I have taken the liberty to cherry pick from the conclusions, as follows.
I use ChatGPT for my AI research - we must all embrace this new tech, but
warning - AI learns about you and your knowledge as well.• The Reward Mine is analogous in structure and mineralization to Fosterville and Bendigo, though perhaps less intense in fault-reactivation-induced bonanzas.
Thus, Hill End’s high grades are not just relics of shallow enrichment but are tied to complex structural and paragenetic history that continues to generate gold shoots at depth.
Conclusion
• Hill End is not a shallow-only system. While supergene enrichment exists, primary high-grade gold (>10 g/t) continues well below 100–200m, especially in structurally favorable zones like Reward Shaft.
• Grade distribution is highly structural, with intense gold shoots at intersections of bedding-parallel veins and W-dipping reverse faults.
• JORC data and vein maps confirm continuity of mineralization at depth, and the inferred resource is both deeper and higher in grade than the shallower indicated category.
