Mr. Thomas is highly respected and has an excellent reputation in the mining industry, having done consulting work for such
notable industry leaders as Marathon Oil, Denver Research Center, ARCO Refining Co., ARCO (Anaconda-Stillwater
Project) and the Mining Corporation, Inc. (Noranda Group), to mention a few.
Mr. Thomas has a distributive master's degree in geology and mathematics. His thesis work was in pyrometallurgical chemistry.
"The Determination of Percentage Levels of Palladium in Alumina-Rich Matrices by Fire Assaying". Other notable persons
assisting Mr. Thomas in his final report were Jeffrey P. Kurtz, Phd., University of Colorado at Denver; Phoebe L. Hauff, MS,
Mineralogical Research Lab Supervisor, C.S.E.S., University of Colorado; and Phil Russell, MS, Rocky Mtn. SEM,
Engineering Dept., University of Denver.
The Oro Grande ores, according to the final report by Mr. Thomas, and after running over 800 assays on selected samples
collected in a conservative manner, show a total of 62,109,152 tons of previous metal bearing material (gold, silver,
platinum, palladium and rhodium) with a gross value of $5,200,222,509. The overall dollar per short ton value is
$83.40/st by estimate. There is about 100,000,000 tons of material in place that no value has been placed upon at this time,
but can certainly be considered probable reserves.
