Richard Goldfarb , one of the best geologists around.

Scotgold sponsor a student from Leicester University which is the connection and the involvement of Dr Dave Holwell which leads to Richard Goldfarb the rest you can read about later !
Half way down the page on the link below you will see our logo on the list of sponsors.

Note the name of Dr Dave Holwell ( from link above ) 08:20 University of Leicester, remember his comments on Sorn Garbh
"This is most certainly an exciting discovery. The mineralisation at Sron Gharb has the characteristics of a classic magmatic Cu-Ni sulphide deposit with elevated precious metals. The ratios of sulphur and selenium indicate that the magma has been contaminated by sulphur-bearing crustal rocks - a key factor in helping to generate deposits of this kind. Intriguingly, the geochemical signatures show that the sulphides cannot have gained their high precious metal contents without the presence of a much larger magmatic system than is current exposed. If this has been preserved beneath the current surface (as a larger intrusion or conduit system), it could represent a potential host for massive sulphide mineralization at depth."
He was followed by Richard Goldfarb at 08:30 who spoke for 45 minutes.
When Richard Goldfarb was finished he didn't return home he went somewhere else which has been confirmed by more than just me, but why you ask.
As part of her course work our very clever student was dating Cononish , all was not as was thought, now to geologists sh-t like that is the Holy Grail, which is why it wasn't to hard to get one of the worlds top geologists to Tyndrum . You already know of Dr Dave Holwell and his thoughts on a massive sulphide mineralization at depth. You may or may not have seen the regional mapping in the SGZ office , Richard Goldfarb has and concurs with the SGZ geologists and Dr Dave Holwell . To sum it all up, the regional rock chip sampling and stream sediment sampling and drill results etc etc, the vein systems around the Tyndrum area may well all be coming from a massive ore body at depth. Massive as in huge Alaskan size deposit. If thats not enough just up the road , 5km , Sorn Garbh could be as big as major deposits such as Aguablanca in Spain, certain parts of the Sudbury mines in Ontario, Canada; Voisey's Bay in Labrador Canada and Lac des Isles in Quebec, Canada, or could even be part of the same massive system as Cononish.
So Cononish is just the beginning as I have been harping on about all along.
Research and more research and not missing anything with Scotgold in it and being a nosey b-----d helps and a big gub, you don't ask you don't get , you have all had enough clues in the past to have worked it out before now.
Take a look at picture 3 for the regional map , take a look at the last picture just for the sake of it and dont miss the picture with a 1240gt A/u rock chip

Oh and ask anyone named above to deny it, go on !
Hope you all have a good Christmas , in or out .
