some or any in a conditional sentence
While writing about some mining works carried out in several ‘areas’ of a certain region, I had a doubt about the use of some/any.
Is it right using ‘some’ in a conditional case like the one in the example below?
1. Our works didn’t succeed in two of these areas. If there is some prospect in any other area, we will restart operations.
Or should I use ‘any’ instead?
2. Our works didn’t succeed in two of these areas. If there is any prospect in any other area, we will restart operations.
Thank you
