Maybe its true,but oresorting tend to be fairly reliable in real life productions compared to what the preconstruction results can show,and just because its lower grade ore it doesnt change the ability of the machine to sort the machibe will look for arsenal pyrite quartz veins which is exactly what it search for in many ore sorting tasks worldwide the other most common to sort for an XRT is Sulphide bearing mineralisation. Also oresorting isnt a factor which can go so wrong that it screw a project into trouble.

Am I wrong in my understanding that no matter the avg grade of the ore you can expect similar recoveries on the contained gold? My basis for this in this instance where the avg grade of the ore is mostly a function of vein density (how many veins) then the ore sorter will still identify the veins and sort them out so that what comes out of the ore sorter and gets fed to the mill will be of a similar avg grade no matter the avg grade of the ore that goes in.
