Hi Gary:
Are you certain those are Fe-Ni veins? I had a good chunk of NB and the
only veins were Fe-Oxides, in particular, hematite. NB is a pretty
weathered H5; I remeber it was coated with a several-mm-thick rind of
shale and a good amount of caliche.
Blaine Reed had/has the main mass, and it was HUGE...
Best,
Matt
