43-101 resources... yo yo
43-101 resources... yo yoI will be talking to the company this week. I doubt that adding to a resource calc will not be 43-101 compliant, as it isn't a big deal. I have copied the procedure from Orko's own website. ( which i believe is pretty clear )
In Toronto, the sample pulps are analysed by Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) for 40 elements. Gold is tested by Fire Assay and silver is tested by Atomic Absorbtion Spectrometry (AAS). Each method has a lower and upper calibration range for which the results are accurately determined.
Sample results falling out of the calibration range for the elements Au, Ag, Pb, Zn, Cu and Ba are re-analysed by methods with higher calibration ranges. This is true for silver >300 g/t, gold >10 g/t, and Pb, Zn, Cu and Ba >10,000 ppm.
SGS also performs a "duplicate analysis" on every 12th sample, insuring that there is at least one duplicate run with every batch.
Orko in Vancouver and Durango
Results are tabulated on spreadsheets and e-mailed to Orko geologists. Originals of the assay certificates are sent in hard-copy format to Vancouver.
Upon receiving the completed analytical results, geologists then extract the duplicate and standard samples for examination of expected values versus tested values.
The spreadsheet information for the drill hole samples is then matched with the sampling intervals and geological observations for interpretation.
Results of the merged data are then sent to Orko management, along with the interpreted true width of the structures.
Orko management periodically prepares news releases to make public the information from the drilling in a format compatible with NI 43-101 standards. A "Qualified Person" signs-off on news releases containing technical data.
