Ann: Mount Berghaus Gold Results, page-34

I make no reference to crustal abundances, this is solely your work. Sub-100ppm As results from drilling in a purported gold mineralising system is very tenuous for a pathfinder, even worse when the highest gold assay basically shows a negative correlation. It's aircore, so we are dealing with oxide and transitional material mostly, and As is pretty mobile so the relationship with gold can become diffuse. As a wise man who probably has forgotten more about geochemistry that I will ever know once told me- Arsenic LOVES structure. If Nick does cotton on to a gold-mineralising structure I do expect much higher As values in any gold-bearing primary rock. But looking at the cross section, the highest value sits at the laterite interface, not particulary helpful, the 2m @ 0.57g/t at the end of hole 215 is likely in fresh, so that's pretty helpful- but the As for that interval is 1ppm!

I have made sensible commentary on this release, relating to the claimed significance of the anomalism. Even Nick in the video, checks himself and IMO looks sheepish when he says "...a little bit of arsenic...". For your benefit I just pulled the first image I could find from DEG to show you what the claimed As/Au relationship should look like in drill results of a (very local) gold mineralsed structure. I could write more but I can't be bothered, as you point out, I'm not invested. I trust that as well as my lack of sentiment you gained something from reading through my short body of work.

Good luck with your 'properly cited, peer reviewed' reference, I'm sure it will hold you in good stead in the critical analysis of ASX releases, and in particular when a knowledgable alternate perspective is mooted.
