Pumpers/Dumpers ??
Lots of commenters out there - I'm just thinking that the PHD management - that would be Ron - is doing the right thing - OK, trenching, grab samples, angering (cheap) - percussion drilling ( trying to do it right) - and now ---- I like the small tonnage bulk sample - going to a small pilot plant - who are manufacturers of BIG plants - probably 3 runs of sample - some - first run - no crushing - just the results from historic 10 stamp mill recovery - second run - crushing the football sized (never stamp.milled) stuff - then re-crushing that to present day standards - TWO things will happen - we'll find the unrecovered ore - in the previously crushed material and we will find the unrecovered gold in the supposedly "waste" material - not trying to pump - however - the Bulk sample in two or three runs - will show us the best milling process to use - so best assay, best ongoing milling process - call me a pumper - if you like - but bottom line - I'm invested - and I like the process and innovation which Ron is using to take this forward !!

Just my opinion but when a company runs a bulk sample the point is to get a random real world sample. You are not going to take 2 or 3 tons of material which is diddly then start breaking into 3 samples. Also as I recall it is nearly all crushed tailings. And yes you are pumped.

With all due respect - you haven't the slightest clue what you are talking about. That was hilarious guesses by someone who obviously knows nothing about mineral exploration or mining. Its one thing to come here and ask what's going on because you don't know but its quite another to have no idea what you're talking about yet come and tell others what's going on.
