Please excuse me for asking a question on this thread.

Zeev, I believe that one of the samples submitted was a dore bar. It is my understanding that a dore bar is an alloy of different metals. If the metals are no longer locked up in a difficult matrix, would it not be easy for the refiner to seperate them? One of the problems with the IPMF ore was that the gold was tied up in petzite. Is petzite the same mineral containing the gold here. If it is, why don't they list silver as one one the metals present in the assay or recovery.

Again please excuse me I am trying to open my mind and understand this mineralization. Zeev seems to have a good handle on it, so I am asking his advice.

Thanks,

Tim Hall
