James...It was said that Carson left on health grounds but I would presume there would be no way to confirm this.
"In a phone conversation I had with a director months back He said in a JORC anything above 10% in native copper is reduced to 10%. I do not know if this is true or false."
This is from the drilling update 25/1/07
Native Copper Assaying (Explanatory Notes) Intersections from drill holes containing large amounts of copper metal are assayed at metallurgical laboratories by screening out all particles of native copper above 3mm which, in some cases, is more than 50% of the entire sample. This method is used due to the variable distribution of native copper and these coarse particles being non representative. With respect to Las Minerale the native copper appears to be evenly distributed throughout the supergene zone. In the future, native copper samples from all diamond holes containing native copper will be assayed by analysing the whole sample and not screening out the +3mm fraction size. The samples will also be used in the metallurgical and ore processing studies for plant design. Drill Hole DORC 87 drilled last year, was assayed by acid digest using the -3mm particle size native copper. The hole intersected 41m @ 4.95% Cu from 44-85m including 26m @ 6.59% Cu from 48-74m.
