This might be of interest..... I am asking around but maybe someone wants to comment :-)

Nevada Pacific which is drilling immediately to the northwest of Railroad released a press release
today indicating that it will be drilling four more holes this year to follow on the three holes
already drilled. They look to be drilling very deep. Geochem on the 3rd hole looked interesting.

Specifically, Nevada Pacific reported that SC99-3 found the following geochem pathfinder
elements:

Hg greater than 6.5 ppm, As greater than 300 ppm, Sb greater than 76 ppm, Ba greater than 0.24%

To compare with MIQ, the POD core showed the following pathfinder elements:

Au -- values greater than 27 ppb and up to 1310 ppb
As -- values greater than 2000 ppm
Sb -- values greater than 5.6 ppm
Hg -- values greater than 0.75 ppm
Barium -- values greater than 2500 ppm
TI -- values greater than +1 ppm

And the geo-chem also showed the following base metals:
Copper -- values greater than 400 ppm
Zinc -- values greater than 1000 ppm
Molybdenum -- values greater than 20 ppm
Bismuth -- values greater than 10 ppm
Cadmium -- values greater than 20 ppm
Lead -- values greater than 200 ppm
Tellurium -- values greater than 1.1 ppm

Other elements:
Cobalt -- values up to 32 ppm
Phosphorous -- values greater than 1200 ppm
Vanadium -- values greater than 75 ppm

These are all within the +27 ppb to 1310 ppb core gold anomaly measuring 3200 feet in length
and between 1500 and 2700 feet in width. Outward from the core, values decrease to 2 ppb gold
resulting in a total width of approximately 4000 feet.

Any geologists/rock hounds/informed guessers want to interpret this for us?
