RE:Strathcona Minerals responds to Pretium's bulk sample result
GF: "they planned for 16 million tonnes, which is a lot of tonnes at that very high grade of 16 grams per tonne in the indicated category in the resource model. The drilling and the mapping and the bulk sample and so on did not find that."
This statement makes it seem like he expected to see lots of uniform 16gpt material instead of lots of low grade interspersed with very high grade. I find it hard to believe, but I can't see how he could make the statement otherwise. After all, I don't think he has enough data to disprove the model at this point, except that the bulk sample is proving up MORE gold than the model predicted.
