Mark, I hope your wife is computer illiterate. An open question to all. If there is a concern that the numbers are so good that the samples might be salted, as was suggested by a very large shareholder, would it not be possible to do the following: 1) Do standard assays on the dirt immediately on arrival to Ledoux. 2) Proceed to process the dirt using Dr. Johnson's method. 3) Assay the results after Dr. Johnson's method. I would think that if the gold is attainable only after what Henry calls the shake and bake method. The pre-Johnson samples will be low, and the post-Johnson will have higher gold content. If the samples were tampered with, you would expect the results to be similar. I wouldn't think it possible to salt the dirt with anything other than your standard run of the mill gold. This control would be a very simple method to prove or disprove tampering. I would suspect that Ledoux is already doing this. I welcome opinions of others. Sincerely, Ken Rosenfeld
