Marble Bar is the oldest land in the world, Craton with the granite plates north and south of us probably protecting Marble Bar from being recycled as they came to surface crashing into and forming the open shears. As the granite plates gradually cooled forming a fairly impenetrable barrier for hot gases coming to surface the open shears would have become natural vents. As these gases came to surface through the shears they dumped the gold in vapour form much like steam in a saucepan condensating on the glass underside of the glass lid of the saucepan. Gold dumps out in the same way as it comes to surface and cools, so had plenty of time to mineralise. The open shears with gold, I believe there is something like 250 km of open shears, all will be mineralised with gold to some extent. We currently have a resource over some 2.5 km with further 2 km to the east and another further 2 km beyond that and to the west probably another 10 km of old high grade goldmines so this has the potential to be one of the biggest goldmines in the world plus we’ve still got Marble Bar, Coronation, Fieldings Gully and Copenhagen, conglomerates..... and I’m sure we still going to find lots lots lots more yet.
