On March 9th, we successfully passed through the Lamphrophye dyke, which had been intercepted at a depth of 1275 meters in Hole B, halting drilling last year. After a week of surveying the lithologies beneath the dyke, we can now confidently celebrate the successful re-intersection into the Bushveld Complex. This is truly a momentous achievement and one worth celebrating.
