These veins would a;)pcar to be short and discontinuous,

and interpreted in order to completely access potential of the

vein shears.

Further proegecting, trenchina ond mnpplng will be

required on the north-south projection of thc veins from the known expouures on the crown grants to further acceee

poeeibilities of continuity.
