Well, the blood letting continues for the Flagster but atleast now we see another junior falls to the mercy of a huge producer in the Sudbury region. Here alittle exerpt from a Mineralogy textbook I thought would be interesting to share with each and everyone of you. Platinium occurs in basic and ultrabasic igneous rocks, associated with olivine, pyroxene, chromite and magnetite. What we should all be thinking now is, how Flag Resources over the last two years has repeatedly used these rock types in their NR's to describe certain conditions they've encountered in their exploratory drilling. At Sudbury, Ontario, where substantial quanities of the platinum metals are recovered from the Chalcopyrite-pentlandite-pyrrhotite ores the medal occurs in the mineral sperrylite, PtAs2. Sperrylite was first found at the Vermillion mine, Sudbury Ontario, and was named after the discoverer, Francis L. Sperry, a chemist at Sudbury. Well the only thing were missing now is, has Murdo discovered the Sperrylite that is responsible for the important platinum production from the Sudbury Region???
Do you feel lucky punk, make my day!!!!! |
