native copper - tiptoeing around the topic??, page-7

Simple answer is to look at the metallurgy testwork results. Samples are taken from 'representative' ore to be milled. Results are 4% cu without co, au credits.

I've written several examples on the jorc and how it treated Ncu (nugget effect). No point trying to compare RXM, HGO and copper deposit at Las Minerale. The fact is the LM deposit is unique and the drilling results back this up.
Bottom line, you can stay in the jorc camp and believe 1.24% Cu Eq is your number. No-one has to convince you otherwise, however I'd suggest the bulk metallurgy, and LM vert drill results (ann 23rd June 2010) tells you the NCu is there. Further evidence would be the 20 year offtake deal and full project finance recently announced.
Next stop on the evidence train will be bulk mining. You and many others will probably get their heads around things by that stage.
