Missing Gold

I'm going to go out on a limb and say the 2700 oz's of gold was lost somewhere in the milling circuit.  I say this because no mill is 100% efficient.  So the company is most likely looking at each process to find the shortfall and
fix it.  I'm not a mill guy, but I've been around a few of them and they are always striving to reach the best recovery rate they can, the elusive 100%.  So the company still has the gold, they just haven't recovered it in the process.

It would be interesting to find out how much high grade dike they have been running through the mill last quarter. While the dike rock can be multi oz ore, it has always been a problem for the roaster and recovery isn't very good. First the dike isn't carbon based like the other ore and the gold is locked in silica. Not sure if there is an economical solution. I find this subject pretty ...more
