(Mewet Creek) and the collar heights on most of the drill holes were within a few metres of each
other in vertical collar position.
There is a further requirement to accurately measure the topography in the Mewet vein area
and the previously established benchmarks could be utilised for this purpose.

Base of Weathering
The base of weathering can be established from the oxidation data from the drill holes in the
area. The nature of the mineralisation does not appear to be affected by the base of oxidation,
with high grade areas close to the surface on the south end of the vein structure, similar in
magnitude to the higher grade intercepts on the north end of the area reviewed at depth, below
the surface of oxidation.

Hangingwall and Footwall
The hangingwall and footwall of the Mewet Vein was modelled on a section by section basis
using the geological logging as a guide to the mineralised envelope defined. It was found that
the mineralised segments anastomose within the logged vein structure, occurring near the
hangingwall of the vein in some areas or near the footwall in others. Occasionally,
mineralisation can occur both in the footwall and the hangingwall, separated by several metres
of interburden. In areas, the mineralised intercepts, defined at the 0.50 g/t Au composite
boundary, the two coalesce to form a single mineralised vein.
A number of small mineralised sections can be found in the hangingwall of the Mewet Lode but
the geological correlations were not possible at this time. It is considered that closer spaced
drilling will define these hangingwall lodes more clearly and could be included in future models.
Mineralised sections in the footwall of the main lode are rare and, in the few examples where
they occur, can be explained by reviewing the core logs. For example, in JM022, a series of low
–grade mineralised intercepts in the footwall can be attributed to a single narrow (
