CH-10 is one of the Pearls in the String of Pearls that are related to ch-6.
*Information in this current blog is based on information obtained up to mid 2018 and should be considered legacy at this time and should no longer be relied upon.*
I've been told that String of Pearls is a technical Diamond terminology.
This was announced in the 2009 program on September 14th -- Sept 14 release
"The CH-10 kimberlite was discovered by drilling one of the four magnetic
low anomalies aligned like a "string of pearls" in a north-northwest
direction just north of the CH-6 kimberlite."
"The CH-10, CH14 and CH-15 kimberlites are described as being dominantly magmatic."

In reality, this is associated solely with CH-6 structure and will be mined in conjunction with CH-6.
With the open pit and then also with the underground, there will be a huge amount of synergies.
Underground will interface with all of the pearls.
In 2009, CH-10 drilling (2 drill holes) produced 111 kgs of material and with a total number of diamonds of 152 with a very nice micro diamond curve throughout. It is fairly save to assume that the material created at ch-6 will be found in all the pearls.
The pearls are much smaller then CH-6 and therefore are not going to add a huge weight on the total tonnage of the mine and Peregrine is not going to spend $$'s on a carat valuation at this point.
This will need to wait well into the project...but assumptions can be made that ch10 and all other pearls will have high margin tonnage.
