A big potential bonus to Pedra Blanca is rhodium (currently quoted at 1800 oz). As you will recall there were some very high surface showings in spots. SLR/Rockwell didn't report results as only six holes were drilled. In response to my
e mail the company answered,

"the amount of rhodium was small but did spike in
some of the areas. The range ran from .01 to .42 g/tonne".

That's not very specific as to what the interval of .42g was or how many were in this higher range, but clearly this material where found could have a big impact on economics.

Rockwell posted Rh and Au in their release. Hole 1 had 0.16m of .42 g, and hole 5 had 0.4m of .27g. All the others were 0.01 to 0.05, with similar amounts of Au. So it's down there in spots and tends to show up with the best PGM grades.
