RE:sample size Or as our dear Bob describes it nicely:
If you can visualize a cubic meter of rock, it contains about 2.5 tons. If you have 67-g/t material, therefore you have about 167.5 grams of gold. If it were in one cubic nugget, it would be about 15 mm or about .6 of an inch. That’s small enough to hide in your ear if you don’t mind your ear lobes dragging the ground.
So what we have to date is 5 bulk samples weighing 1573kgs, delivering 1oz/tonnes.
But remember this isn't even a cubic metre. For clarity 1 cubic metre is a cube with 40inch sides.

1 cubic metres of rock weighs 2600kgs, so if you take a sample the size NVO did here (about 350kg) and envision it as a cube (whereas 1m³=edge 1m) then we would have a cube with all edges measuring 0,53cm or 21inches.
Now that's a tiny cube to make your decisions upon.
