Tudor Gold Corp > Why the delay in assay results?

Why the delay in assay results?

In the October 26, 2020 news release the company indicated that assay results should now return to a 15 day turn around time. If they were to meet that 15 days, the 12 holes in the lab at that time are now 14 days past the 15 day turnaround.  Why the delay?

1. Most likely answer is the lab lied about quicker turn around times, and has failed to deliver.

2. Lab met 15 day turnaround (or there abouts), and Tudor is taking time to properly catalog all data from the 12 holes before release.  Implies the release is imminent.

3. Lab met 15 day(ish) turnaround, and Tudor discovered something in the results that require follow-up or other activity before release.  If so, then what could it be?

3.A) Very poor/odd results that require either a second assay or significant review of the modelling. 

3.B) Very good results, perhaps high grade, that requires a second (Fire) assay. 

4. Other corporate activity that requires the delay in release of assay results. This could be something such as major financing, joint venture, or buy-out discussions.

Any other possibilities?  Comments?

God only knows...Occams Razor: all things being equal it's usually the simplist reason...they lied or couldn't keep their promise of a 15 day turn around. Any other guesses POG taking a big dump today- sucks Patience

don't think you can just hold onto results very long 
Comment by watchmeplz on Nov 23, 2020 2:21pm
Its a delay industry wide at the labs because of covid, almost every miner has assays pending. Put out a press release to keep interest, this isn't pumping or promotion, this is to keep your investor pool confident. ES pumps this on his podcast to what? only wait years for results with no news releases thinking that a fund will eventually buy once they have 41-101/results? I think they're ...more

Galazym31, I believe you are correct. However, some circumstances can allow/require such as financing. They can ask the lab to hold the results until complete.
