Project information with Graphitic Schist iterations, page-8

I know what the schist is croc.....I have been telling you all the way through.... SHEESH.

I have been naming the minerals and posting as per your geologist report.




Most schists are mica schists, but graphite and chlorite schists are also common. Schists are also named for their prominent or perhaps unusual mineral constituents, as in the case of garnet schist, tourmaline schist, and glaucophane schist"


Not sure what Feldspars have to do with anything... another diversion maybe?...Yes there is some in the ore body...Feldspars are hard and form at the gneiss stage during metamorphosis.... So that tells you something. It tells you that at least a percentage of the schist is borderline gneiss and indeed we have gneiss listed as one of the predominant rock types in the ore body.
FELDSPAR Is HARD




Nothing is changed from what I have stated previously... how could it ? it is what I have been saying all along.. you are just determined to downplay the reality of blasting and crushing.. don't forget the mineralisation is hosted in graphitic Gneisses as well.

The classification for SCHIST is a medium hardness rock. It will be comprised of some soft minerals and some hard minerals and its hardness will be determined by how it was formed but also by the depth in the ground and the resultant pressure. Some of the ore body is ~100 mtrs down???

Your schist is NOT going to simply fall apart as you make out. There will be softer areas and harder areas. There will be areas that split along the horizontal plane and areas where it doesn't. No ore body is uniform throughout. There will also be lots of ore where the quartzite grains, feldspars etc and harder minerals/rock will be pressed (almost glued, bonded from the pressure and mineralisation) into the graphite flakes. These have a lot of trouble with liberation.

Further...... lab testing doesn't equal real world... I know it.. others know it... the funders definitely know it but you may manage to fool a few on here.
