Its encouraging that some of the 10 "jewelry class"macrodiamonds recently found were classed as fragments off of bigger diamonds.....
I'm not sure that people realize what we have here but by doing a little math it becomes quite obvious.
We have two kimberlite pipes averaging a conservative 1 hectare each and 5 microdiamonds each from drill results.
Converting things to the Imperial system lets say a drill hole is 2" round and to be conservative lets call it 4 square inches.
1 acre is 43,560 square feet or 6,272,640 square inches and divide that by the 3 drill holes of the two kimberlites...or 12 square inches = 522,720
This is conservatively how many times these combined drill holes (equivilant of three drill holes and 10 macrodiamonds) would fit over 1 acre .
So taking 522,720 and multiplying it by 10 macrodiamonds = a very conservative 5,227,200 macros per acre.
But we have a conservative 2 hectares between the two properties so lets assign
2 acres per hectare to be even more conservative.
So that would be 4 acres times 5,227,200 = 20,908,800 macrodiamonds.
The potential here is absolutely staggering.
