Sorry. Can't let this pass.
Sorry. Can't let this pass.1) I saw the core from hole 7 at the PDAC.
2) I am knowledgeable about this style of mineralization having worked in the Abitibi greenstone belt with gold in pyrite near syenite porphyries.
3) The rock type was from a highly silicified and pyritized alteration zone (according to CD, it is from a silicified shear zone in syenite porphyry where the phenocrysts are obliterated due to the shearing and silicification).
4) The pyrite is in a recrystallized form, (a bit is cubic euhedral), but mostly it is very fine grained, in aggregates to 0.25cm or so defining a banding or layering but is definitely not banded sediments or volcanics.
5) Being recrystallized, it has the capacity to absorb gold if gold is present in the geochemical system (which it is) - thus increasing the liklihood of it reporting in assays.
6) The assays will tell the story. I saw no visible gold in hole 7, but the gold could easily be inside the pyrite.
7) Again - the assays will show whether this runs.
