Ann: Impressive Results from Bioleaching Pilot Plant Test, page-81

Assays over full length of TED-015 using BBX's nickel fusion method that informed the JORC resource: 91.88m @ 0.64g/t 5E (Au+Pt+Pd+Ir+Rh)

The pilot plant is giving us 91.88m @ 16.5g/t 2E (Pd + Au)

So 16.5g/t / 0.64g/t = 25.9x or 2590% recovered precious metal relative to the JORC.


If I break it down by individual metals:

	91.88m @	Au (g/t)	Pd (g/t)	Pt (g/t)	Ir (g/t)	Rh (g/t)
1	Assay	0.0223	0.0308	0.4153	0.1653	0.0044
2	P. Plant	0.62	15.9	-	-	-
3	Factor	2779%	51622%	-	-	-

Obviously the assay method is absolutely useless at recovering Au and Pd and not much better at recovering the other metals, but it served it's purpose by giving a the precision we needed to establish a lowball tonnage and grade for the JORC resource.
