<<This target is a low grade VMS deposit....>>

2% copper, 1.5% zinc, 1 opt silver... that is average for a VMS.

<I can understand SOME gold enrichment n the oxidized zone and I am suspicious of the gold numbers from the sulphide zone >>

Why.. More than 50% of the VMS deposits have gold with an average near 1g/t. Why not here.

<<.....have there been independent sampling by a recognized consulting group and assaying with a verified chain of possession ...>>

BGRM France, Bondar Clegg...Manhattan... You know who they are?

<<There are a FEW known VMS deposits with high gold and or silver grades, but they are small, tonnage wise and have a different metallic signature and are usually metalurgically complex >>

The Horne deposit:
54M tons of 2.2% copper, 13 g/t Ag and 6.1 g/t gold.

The Quemon deposit (1km north of Horne)
13M tons of 1.32% copper, 2.44% zinc, 31 g/t Ag and 5.5 g/t gold.

Also in Manitoba, the Flin Flon deposit had a remarkable 63 million
tons of 2.2% copper, 4.10% zinc, 43.2 g/t Ag and 2.85 g/t gold.

In British Columbia, Canada, which resembles Peru in its
geological settings: the Westmin deposits total 19M tons of high
grade copper and zinc with 2.2g/t gold

Those are a few big ones in Canada. Nothing complex about these deposit. Are you sure you know whgat you are talking about... again, more than 50% of the VMS deposits have gold.

<<this isn't going to end up as another TSE based mining stock scam.....>>

Like if there were many scams on the TSE... Ridiculous.
