Last 2 paragraphs of the recent news releaseThe NR below says a lot about the quality and quantity of their discovery but also speaks volumes regarding the Management of MUM. In my opinon this is not just any insignificant little tid bit of news. MUM found something that was a MAJOR surprise and prior to going public with the news they actually sent off samples to another lab in order to confirm the findings.
All drill core samples were sent to Accurassay Laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ont. Analysis was completed for nickel, copper, cobalt and silver using an aqua regia digestion followed by AAS/ICP finish. For gold, platinum and palladium, fire assay of 30-gram aliquots followed by combination fire assay and AAS finish was employed.
To confirm the reliability of the PGM assays encountered in the new zone of PGM mineralization, samples were sent to Activation Laboratories (Actlabs' Thunder Bay location) for recheck assays. The check assay results confirmed the values received from Accurassay including the high-grade samples
