C'est vrai Claude. Mais, I just thought if they ( silver wheaton)had any geologists or geologist friends on the ground and they had seen the assayed core and now the current unassayed core, they might make a reasonable conjecture, considering the advantage of comparing what is known to the unknown. Far different from Cartaway having nice coloured core, I think.

Cheers,
Ogi

It depends on the type of mineralization.

I know of a gold deposit where the geologist logging the core could predict exactly the length and the grade (+ or - 1g/t) just by looking at the core.

Fot the length, alteration was the key guide. For the grade, the content in disseminated sulfides was determinent!

But it's unusual.
