    looking and doing some further reasearch on spring hill just to get a little of molyhill and more on the sleeper in thor's projects that could prove the game changer

    keep in mind that our driling to date and what we have for our 274,000 oz jorc only drilled to a maxiumum depth no more than 150 meteres deep- looking more and more on the callie 5 million ounce depoosit makes me more and more excited that thor could in fact be sitting on something much much bigger below 150m- looking at the callie deposit for example and other tanami operations- looks like increasing gold grades eventuate in deeper holes in the region and drilling deeper once this wet season is over could in fact pay dividends for thor mining on the acquisition which was only completed in 2011

    from newmonts website for some info on the region and the potential that exists deeper in the region than our shallow 150m drills which have been completed to date

    Located at Dead Bullock Soak, production is from the Callie mine which had 2 million ounces in gold reserves at 2010 year end. Callie is about 1,500 yards (1.4 kilometers) deep and has been mined using sublevel open stoping with cemented aggregate fill. Drilling results indicate there is potential to continue mining farther down, but existing infrastructure is aging and costs are increasing.

    Through the Tanami Operations Optimisation Project, Newmont is investigating several options, including an on-site paste plant that will allow existing stopes on the higher levels to be backfilled and the remaining ore mined.The team also is assessing the feasibility of building a 1.4-kilometer shaft to transport mined ore to the surface. The shaft would make it more economic to continue mining beyond the existing 1.4-kilometer depth.
    Additionally, Newmont has invested $110 million to upgrade the Granites accommodation village, replace the ball mill, complete the paste plant and other improvement projects.

    and this

    Deep drilling for extensions of the Wilson Shoot at the Callie deposit in the Tanami generated favorable intervals, with visible gold at 2,000 meters (6,562 feet) drill depths.

    and this is the defining piece of information to prove that the real delight could be found below historical drilling to date at Spring Hills once you look at this poster from the nt government highlighting that extensive gold deposits are more commonly found from deeper drilling in the tanami region nt

    whatever you do thor's done write off spring hill gold as a company making project for thor resources - after extensive research of deeper drilling in the area, i am also of the opinion that greater gold resources could be hiding underneath our limited drilling to date at spring hills gold project- must also add that having Trevor J Ireland - Non-Executive Director join thr with his credentials of identifying the 5mil callie deposit in the tanami region, adds a degree of confidence and credential to our small cap minnow - from our site you may want to note the follwoing -
