Not EMR's process for sure.
Sounds like they are torquing the assay leach process with microwave heat.
EMR's process does increase the yeild / recovery but it's not a stand alone process for gold extraction. It's an add on step in the recovery process with good cost/recovery ratios on certain types of ore.
It has been tried on DD with IPM with no success.
all I can say is that maxam appears to be working on an assay recovery proceedure which when engineered for large scale operation might end proving to be too expensive, if they can at all prove its viability on the bench! - good luck
