Navarre Minerals hits new quartz reef structure of visible …
Navarre Minerals (ASX: NML) has intersected a new quartz reef structure containing areas of visible gold and strong sulphide mineralisation from the first holes of a phase one exploration program at its wholly-owned St Arnaud project in Victoria. Results for the first eight diamond drill holes over 3,239 metres of the New Bendigo Line area included an …

Grade and geological continuity in high-nugget effect gold–quartz reefs …
High-nugget effect gold-quartz reefs are one of the most challenging styles of mineralisation to evaluate and exploit. The estimation of mineral resources, and subsequent ore reserves, forms a critical base for exploitation. The understanding and application of grade and geological continuity issues during estimation is of importance.
