    Amigos, this announcement about the metallurgy is incredibly important. Why? if arsenic is tightly bound to the gold, arsenic is a real problem for gold producers. Up until now SXG has not mentioned arsenic in its ore, even though high levels of arsenic-antimony-gold are typical for orogenic gold deposits. But, SXG reports that the gold is not bound to the arsenic to any significant degree (the same goes for antimony). The company reports that the gold can be separated easily from the arsenic. It means that the gold is not a refractory type. That is, the refining of SXG's ore will not require smelting in a furnace, instead its gold can be recovered from the ore by gravity, and flotation can be used to produce concentrates of antimony and arsenic. Thumbs up from me.
