Photograph of oxidized gold-bearing conglomerates in the foreground and middle ground and the reverse circulation drill rig in the background. The conglomerate horizon is approximately 1.5 meters thick, is dipping into the surface at approximately 3 degrees and is estimated to be approximately 15-20 meters below the drill rig. This conglomerate is boulder-rich and the matrix between boulders commonly displays iron oxide casts after detrital pyrite. Gold typically occurs in the matrix.
