Hi jbr29, as far as I know the assays are done by a well recognized assay office in Ontario,no problem there.The assays for rare earth was done in a B.C lab. The 34 oz/t sample mentioned, which came from a shallow pit and not from a core sample, was done (or officially registered by the Geological Society of Ontario(a Government Agency).The 'blobs' of palladium were in the core of the recently drilled 630 feet hole,a few feet away from where that 34oz/t piece was taken, that's why the excitement.See the flag web site, it was mentioned there! Murdo did not wait 13 years, as a matter of fact he did not even wait 13 days to drill the step out holes they are drilling now!As soon as they realized what these 'blobs' were,they made the decision with more step out drilling. The price of palladium just a few years back did not justify going after palladium as the grades in general were to low. Industry and technology have all changed and a 2g/t would make it worthwhile now to mine it if it is not to deep.
