Examples of BIF in a sentence
Drill holes were designed, as closely as practicable, perpendicular to the BIF units and are considered appropriate for the style of mineralisation being tested.• As the drilling was orientated approximately perpendicular to mineralisation, no orientation based bias in intersection has been identified.
Orientation of Data in Relation to Geological Structure• Exploration drilling tested relatively tabular mineralisation hosted by vertical to sub-vertical BIF units.
Issues adressed include sample recovery, cyclone/cone splitter cleaning and level operation of the sampling circuit.• A gate sytem was used at the completion of each metre drilled to ensure gravity feed of the sample through the cone splitter.• Sample sizes are considered representative based on the nature of the mineralisation tested and the thickness and consistency of the intersections.• Grain size of the host rock (BIF) and mineralisation are comparable.
The bedded hematite and goethite occurs as a single tabular body within a vertical to steeply north-west dipping Banded Iron Formation (BIF) of the Windaning Formation.• Mineralisation intersected occurs over 100m in strike length and corresponds with a mapped zone of goethite-hematite enrichment within the BIF.
As some variation in dip and strike of the BIF units may occur, reported intercepts are approximate.
