RE:RE:RE:RE:Standards and blanksI think it likely that all the reference halves will have to be analyzed and the results averaged. This averaging will probably reduce more results than increase. It the grand scheme of things WHATEVER! They still have a barely explored, high grade, orogenic gold system along 70 kilometers. None of that will change.
I can't imagine Eric Sprott walking away because of an assaying discrepency. That would be beyond bizzare! He can see the gold in Quartz better than we can (in person).
