If you have any concerns contact the company. The post was irresponsible to say the least and Hot Copper abounds with self appointed experts who fail to back up the claims they make on a regular basis.

The Yilgarn Craton gold deposits do have refractory elements but has not been a huge issue at all.In fact the area is a favourite for miners and accounts for most of Australia's gold rpoduction. He maintains the deposit is highly refractory which is unusual for the area. It would also mean the company has made misleading comments which is a very serious allegation. To make such a claim without some sort of link or display of experise is typical immature crap Hot Copper is infamous for.

He should not need asking for some backup if he was halfway decent so I suggest you ask the company for advise on the concern, not a Hot Copper poster.

In summary there are two type of deposits, oxide and sulphide. Sulphide can then be broken in to subsets, one of which can be refractory and reduce recovery levels significantly. You cannot make a comment that such a deposit will be very low extraction cost so I guess it will be fine but please follow up with the company itself if concerned.
