RE:RE:RE:Love the news...the assays...the near surface findsNice try Gamble but no dice. For starters, those August assay samples you thought were still outstanding (?!?!?) were received and reported on back in Sept ... and they sucked. I can see why you'd want to forget them but unfortunately they form the basis for the follow up drilling ... "Assaying of samples collected along a 100-meter strike length exposing a lode structure 1.0 to 1.4 meters wide returned anomalous gold values ranging from 400 to 700 ppb." that "ppb" stands for Parts Per BILLION.
And Ron quite clearly said the stockpile was for now "abandoned" .. not "postponed" or "delayed" or "put on hold" And blaming the fires and covid is a really lame excuse when its obvious to anybody who bothered to look at the numbers that the reason was simply woefully insufficient grade. For starters ovid was around well before they started the 2021 work on it and the forest fires were long over when they announced they were abandoning it. I guess Ron just figured nobody would notice those facts.
That 77 - 97 g/t Au sample - they "forgot" to tell anybody that it was in-situ, in fact all they said about it was "a 3.77 Kg sample of quartz material taken from the surface at the McCarthy mine yielded gold values of 77.0 to 97.0 grams." Oops?
As for your comment on "Ron's abilites" I can only assume you were being sarcastic.
