As I understand it, all the cores have now been sent for assay - per Dec quarterly the remaining assays expected "to become available in coming weeks"

Inca processed the cores themselves, in preparation for assay , instead of outsourcing [at likely higher cost]
With labor shortages then it took more time to process the cores.
There were also 2 field trips to JE and Mac Creek which interrupted the core processing

Preparing cores for assay is rather expensive as I understand it and with Inca doing it in house has saved $$
