Bill, The water soluble silver complexes sounds like a likely candidate for explaining lower RC grades. I think Shrake even mentioned very fast leaching. Do you have any idea how long the ore might be in a water slurry? (assuming a water cooling agent) Would it be long enough to have this effect?

Regardless of how it turns out, I feel somewhat better knowing that its being worked on. The idea that we could have two-three times the reported grades and nobody in management too concerned about it was driving me nuts. And its not a very long trip.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts, Dave
