Grab Samples

They never seem to move the price. I found this.. WE need more fellas!!


Several types of samples are taken during the mining process - such as grab samples and blast hole samples - and are weighed, according to the tons of the material produced from each sampled area, and averaged. A grab sample is taken from every fifth truck carrying material and sent to the waste dumps. A composite from these samples is made at a 2.5 hour period. The results of these samples are compared with the blast hole samples taken from the same area. Grab sampling takes equal amounts of ore at selected intervals from a mine dump or muck pile. THIS METHOD IS NOT USUALLY CONSIDERED A RELIABLE ONE.

This NR has two purpose To inform the audience for the results received from assaying samples  To tell the shareholders :  take it easy. Whatever is the reason for the last 8 days unusually high volume and dropps of the share price , it is not related with assay results.   Also, this is one of these very rare cases when management inform shareholders ...more

I don't disagree with this. I am just saying lets pump the brakes a bit. No where did i see in the NR a mention of meausring in OZ/ton.
