Non negotiable sell signal... wish I had more of those.
When a company releases drill results and they have "smeared" the data... meaning, out of "X" metres the grade is say 3g/t but it is "including 30g/t over a hairline intercept"... the real message is there is mostly waste rock and probably a waste of time. Most "discoveries" are not economic. When a company presents a polished turd I lose interest. Happy to stick with an explorer that presents the facts without overstating things... that, in my mind, is a company genuinely exploring.
