A couple of questions....
Hello, looking for some genuine feedback, I’m not a geologist but I'm hoping their is one on the chat board. I'm been getting up to speed on FAR this weekend.

Can two rock chip samples be extrapolated into core samples or do the geologists pick the best rocks they can find???? May 2, 2017 – Vancouver, BC: Far Resources Ltd (CSE:FAT) (FSE:F0R) www.farresources.com (“Far Resources” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has received assay results of two composite rock chip samples collected from Dyke 7. The two samples were collected by Far Resources field crews during mucking of boulders and debris from historic blasted trenches on the optioned portion of the Zoro property.
Also table 1 in the attached news release captures multiple samples for dykes 2,4,5 and 7.
I’m assuming the data from dyke 7 was added to the existing table that was shared in the 2016-Jul-27 news release. Is this correct?

Table 2 identifies a summary of lithium assay data from historic exploration and recent confirmatory sampling by Far Resources Ltd.. The text below Table 2 indicates the data is a result of: "where reconnaissance sampling over the summer returned values of up to 6.35%".
Is reconnaissance sampling the same as “rock chip samples” or retesting of core samples from 1956?

Using rock chips for analysis is this standard?
Company prospectors collected 60 representative rock chip samples from historic trenches and pits in Dykes 2, 3 and 4 at the Company’s Zoro Lithium Property. These samples were subsequently analyzed for multiple elements including lithium and related metals using Activation Laboratories “UT-7” analytical package.
Results document high grade lithium from Dykes 2 and 4 attaining maximum values of 1.42% Li2O and 2.71% Li2O, respectively. These results increase the number of known high grade lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes on the Zoro property thereby providing targets for planned upcoming diamond drilling.
